  1. Bad advice. Too much of that out there... I'm 38 and have been accepted by 2 PhD programs so far. Keep reaching for what *you* want to do. It's *never* too late. I cannot stress that enough.
  2. Experiment. Works? Thesis. No? Start over. **My current situation at the moment. Pseudocode just for kicks: start_over = true; while(start_over) { while ((good_data = read(experiment, data, sizeof(data)) > 0) { write(thesis, good_data); start_over = false; } } graduate_with_MS(); :mrgreen:
  3. Just received the original hard copy of the fellowship offer in the mail today.
  4. They're alive! Just got their rejection email, but I'm happy anyway.
  5. I've received an email notification of a fellowship + either a TA, GA, or RA. I don't know which one of the three I'll be receiving...so still waiting on this as well.
  6. I received the email notification of the fellowship on March 18. It came after my acceptance email which I received on March 10.
  7. Sent an email to gsas.admissions@nyu.edu a couple of days ago and still no response. I've heard tales of their financial woes, plus they were one of the institutional Madoff victims: http://www.hedgeco.net/news/12/2008/nyu ... bacle.html My bet is that they'll have a much smaller pool of admits with assistantships/fellowships/scholarships and extend offers to those who can afford to pay their steep tuition with no assistantships (which I most certainly can't). A rejection from them is no matter. SUNY Stony Brook is my top choice (and where I'm headed) and a much better choice for Research. Just my 2c.
  8. I've also been accepted. Received an acceptance email over a week ago and was notified of a Fellowship. Still waiting for the official (postal) letter in the mail.
  9. Has anyone mentioned Numb3rs :?: Addicted: Numb3rs (love Charlie Epps!) CSI: New York Law and Order: SVU Criminal Minds The Inspector Lynley Mysteries
  10. Zero cats at the moment, but I'm determined to get one as soon as I move into my new digs in NY for the Fall.
