In the past two days, I've received my first two responses from schools. One sent me a letter telling me I have received a TAship, but never actually mentioned that I had been admitted to the program. The other school sent me a letter telling me I had been admitted to their program, but did not mention financial support (a previous email had said they intended to offer me support).

I was just wondering if this is normal and if I should expect to get more information from these schools, or if I will have to contact them about it. I thought perhaps there might be two letters coming, split up by graduate school/department or admissions/financial aid. Anyone have experience to share?

Thanks!

For the most part, details about funding and visits aren't in the offer emails I'm getting and come a few days later. I think you can safely assume the TAship is an acceptance, though!

Thanks. I guess I'll just give it a little while and contact them if I don't hear anything. And I do assume that the TAship is an acceptance, but since it doesn't mention the PhD program anywhere, and they also use Masters students as TAs... Well, I think I'm bound to stay anxious about it until I have everything spelled out in writing.
