So, here is my new panic situation. I got an offer from Columbia GSAS and received a wonderful e-mail from my POI. However, I was told that I needed to go back to the admission web site and click 'Accept'. But my application is not showing that I have been accepted yet, so I cannot click. I sent a brief e-mail to my advisor's administrative assistant, and she told me to contact admissions. I tried, but I think maybe people are out for Passover/Easter.

Is anyone else having this problem? I am deciding to give it until after the Passover/Easter holiday since I am sure a lot of people are out.

ps, my creeping/hysterical fear is that my POI was wrong, sent it to the wrong person, I am really not loved!

After I got accepted at one of my schools, it took about two or three weeks for the accept/reject offer to show up on the webpage! Another school didn't update my online status for anything until April 15th, and I received my letter on February 26th.

I'd say that giving it this weekend is a good plan and don't stress about it. You're in, they just haven't added one of the logistical aspects yet.

Thanks all! It just came through about an hour ago. I feel MUCH better now that I can see it on the screen!

:) I'm glad it worked out for you. Yeah, when I got accepted to the former one, I got paranoid ... I kept rereading the PDF letter to make sure it was official.
