Acceptance Freakout Thread


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I haven't participated much in this thread, but I just got an email saying my Duke decision was ready. Apparently, I got a funded offer.... But I didn't interview at all. This is a mistake, right? (My hands are shaking as I type.)l

Edit: This is the English PhD.

I hope for your sake it's not. Congrats!!

P.S. I think they were interviewing for Literature, not English.

A million apologies, that was meant to be an upvote. Congratulations!

Congrats on Duke! Now pardon me while I refresh the status page 8 billion times a day... (though I applied for Lit, and I'm kind of assuming it's a rejection since I got no invite)

In at Buffalo. So so fucking excited.

 

 

I am about to teach in 4 minutes but I need to compose myself because I just got into freaking Buffalo.

 

AWESOME! Congrats to you both!

Best of luck!

 

Congrats to everyone on the Buffalo and Chicago acceptances...and much luck to everyone else waiting to hear from schools! Hang in there! [This was actually the first school I've received news from (with implied rejections from NYU and Indiana).]

 

About five minutes after the admissions site-generated email notification, I received a very nice email from Nancy Armstrong. She also informed me of a fellowship nomination. So I think my permanent expression is one of disbelief/deer in headlights. I'm the worst employee today.

I'm in at Chicago. Did. Not. See. That. Coming.

 

In shock. Cannot think.

 

Edited to say: ignore the application season in my profile. I applied for Fall.

 

Congratulations!

 

I hope we get lots more good news this week for everyone. It ain't over till it's over!
