  1. I earned my bachelor's degree from the U of I, and I loved it while I was there. That's probably one of the reasons that I only applied to one school. The campus is beautiful and it has an incredible library system--I believe it's the second or third largest in the country. One of my friends gave me a tour of GSLIS a year ago, and it's quite impressive as well. It's housed in a beautiful building that's outfitted extremely well. I don't know if we're even going to receive anything specific in terms of assistantship information. The information is all available online, and you just have to send in all your information. The email contains a link that you have to follow to find all of that information. I might call this week to find out how long it takes to hear anything. Due to the nature of my job (I'm a teacher), I need to find out as soon as possible so that I can let everyone know and turn in my resignation letter. Scary! If you can't visit Illinois and have any questions about the campus, let me know. I'd be glad to give you as much information as possible.
  2. Oh, no problem. I was just being my usual paranoid self. And congrats to you, too! Have you visited Illinois yet? Since the topic of this discussion is decisions, I'll say that mine is an easy one to make as well. I only applied to the University of Illinois. My plan is to attend full-time, but that depends on a few factors: I'd have to leave my incredibly secure job and find adequate funding. I'm going to finish my assistantship application this weekend, and I'll wait to see what happens after that. If I don't receive funding, I may defer for one year and try again. P.S. Jesso21, have you applied for assistantships yet? Do you have any idea how long it might take to hear about funding from the U of I? By the way, I'm pretty sure that it's possible to finish that program in one year as well, but that would probably be pretty intense.
  3. Nevermind! I received the email today, and I was accepted!
  4. I applied to the LIS program at the U of I as well, but I haven't heard anything yet. When I called a couple months ago, the lady I spoke to said emails would be sent out mid-March to early April. I was under the impression that decisions would be sent out at the same time, but maybe I misinterpreted what she said. Jesso21, did you get that impression at all? I'm starting to get a little nervous/paranoid now.
