trytostay Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Congrats on all your success @deka! Welcome deka 1
deka Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) Thank you @trytostay! I have been anxious throughout this whole process, but am feeling a new and overwhelming pressure now that I have to decide on a program. Decision advice/threads are why I'm here! I guess the nerves never go away... Edited February 19, 2019 by deka

I guess the nerves never go away... Yeah, everyone says picking is the hardest part. I think we’re both pretty lucky to have this problem, though! I’m trying to just chill (for the first time since last June) and bask in the combination of hard work and the universe being on my side. Then in a month or so I’ll resume the stress, haha. deka 1

I have to ask-- did the DGS mention if he is calling everyone tonight or when you should expect an email with further details? Thanks and congrats! Fedallah 1

Thanks and congrats! The call was followed up by a short note and letter of acceptance; I was told that we should expect an email in the upcoming days with more details about fellowships and funding. The letter was dated for Feb 18th as well! Fingers and toes crossed for you!!! Edited February 21, 2019 by Anonymouse124

I had a short email exchange with a professor I was interested in working with over the summer (asking questions about research in my field etc), but that's the extent of my contact with Penn! Thank you!! Fingers crossed for you guys! reluctanthuman and trytostay 2

Second, I don't know what to think but if I dont get a "yes" tomorrow it is pretty much game over for me and @Fedallah and I will cry together. It is what it is... I hope everyone had a good night. jusrain 1
