I just emailed them and got an auto response back saying that the decisions were sent out in the mail on Thur April 5th. Who knew that schools still sent mailed responses to all of their applicants?

I forgot to mention that I heard back this past Tuesday the 28th.

I think that Bloomington breaks their applications into focus area and then once each area committee makes a decision they notify the potential candidates. I saw some posts as early as the the beginning of February saying people heard back with a fellowship offer. My focus area is 19th Cent British/Transatlantic and I heard from a Victorianist by email that I was accepted with a fellowship. Still awaiting the formal offer, which I should get in the mail. So, I don't think Bloomington is done sending out the good news. Hang in there and best of luck!!!!
