Hi! I have been alerted. I got a phone call from the graduate coordinator yesterday around 5:30 (EST). He just told me that I had been accepted and been awarded the scholarship and asked if I had any questions--which, of course, I do now but at the time I was in stunned silence as this was the first school I'd heard back from. Anyway, we chatted about potentially visiting the school and then he told me that I was third on the waiting list for a GTA position, which is, in his words "historically a very strong position though by no means guaranteed." He said that they should know definitively on that in four or five weeks.
He also sent an e-mail just reiterating everything he told me on the phone with contact information for when I do inevitably have questions. So that's pretty much all I know, that "four or five weeks" comment was the only suggestion I got of a timeline as far as the GTAs are concerned.
Thank you for your congratulations! Are you waiting on admission news or funding?
