I stop waiting on March 15th!

I'm still waiting to hear from one school and if I don't hear by March 15, I'll go crazy! Already I've interviewed by phone with two profs, gone to the official visit day (which neither of the profs were at because of schedule conflicts), talked with them both on the phone again, and was invited back this week to meet with the profs and their current students in person.

I know they're meeting sometime this week or next to make decisions. There are some questions about funding (a co-PI is sick and they don't know if they're going to renew a grant, etc.) that they're trying to work out. It seems like if they're telling me all this, they want me, right?

All I can say is after all this, if they don't accept me I'll be very upset.

Curiosity got the better of me...I emailed all of the colleges I applied to and received one rejection (expected, but maybe they forgot about me?), a vague "applications are still active", and a "the adcom met yesterday, you'll know in 1-2 weeks."

At least for one of the colleges, it's good to know the outcome -- time to start stressing on the others! Haha.
