CONGRATS!!! Acceptance & funding! That is awesome news for you - a nice reward for the obvious hardwork you have put in during your undergraduate studies. Can I assume that you were the one who posted on the results page? Just curious since that person was notified via e-mail. Well, at least OU has made some decisions....took em long enough.

I applied to the MA program...I didn't think you could apply directly to the PhD program - otherwise I would have. I'm hoping to study 19th century American history with a focus on Native Americans during the Civil War and Reconstruction or possibly the rise of cities in the West. How about you?

Thanks for the info! My file was supposedly sent to the history graduate department on January 3rd. Two and a half months of review.....they're probably all sitting around laughing at my application. Well, I guess it's back to the waiting game....seems like almost all the other universities have made decisions...ugh!

Excellent...please let us know what you find out. I e-mailed the generic history graduate address last Friday, but didn't get a response. Oops....wrong reply. This was in response to the post by PhD or Bust.

Thanks to both of you for sharing....glad I'm not the only one waiting. Each day has been a disappointing rush home to check the mailbox. I have a nice bottle of wine from 2005 resting in the wine cooler if I get the acceptance letter. Once the letter arrives, I'll post an update. If anyone else hears anything, please feel free to share. Good luck to all!

Has anyone heard anything back from the University of Oklahoma?? I've heard from every other school, but OU. How long do I wait before contacting someone in their graduate department? Thanks in advance and congrats to all those who get acceptance letters this spring!!!
