I am still waiting to hear from 3 of my 5. The one masters program I applied to said they make their decisions at the end of April, so I am still not done waiting. >=( I agree, this is one of the worst torture devices ever in place; 6 months of waiting, building to one day (that happens to be my birthday), and still, NOTHING.

I am a crier. There is no stopping it; I am just an overly emotional chick. That being said, I have received 2 rejections (via e-mail, check the site) and have not cried once. I was expecting both of them, even though I always kept a little light in my heart on saying I could get in. I applied to a total of 5 Marine Biology programs (4PhD, 1MS) and I am not in correspondence with any of the profs...ANYWHERE. Everyone I have e-mailed has either not replied or said they don't have funding to take on a student, so I am not really expecting to get into any of the other 3 either. Here I am 3 days until the April 15th deadline (my bday btw) and have not heard a thing from over half of my schools. *Sigh* Oh well, short answer is I told myself there is plenty of time in the future for it, and this just opens up options. My first place to go to was student universe and looked at plane tickets to Europe, second site was Peace Corps.
