personalhelicon Posted February 25, 2013 Author Posted February 25, 2013 Sounds like good news! Let us know how it goes
dmmar Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Today I mailed in my response to decline the offer from UW Milwaukee—so hopefully that means good news for anyone on the waitlists!
personalhelicon Posted February 26, 2013 Author Posted February 26, 2013 Today I mailed in my response to decline the offer from UW Milwaukee—so hopefully that means good news for anyone on the waitlists! And you are now at the top of my Christmas card list! Unfortunately for me, no funding = no visa. Still hoping!
This_madness Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 As it turns out, I was accepted with full funding! Very, very excited about this. I'm still going to hold out until I hear back from a few other places, but I can say that UWM is at the top of my list now. Best of luck to everyone!
personalhelicon Posted February 28, 2013 Author Posted February 28, 2013 Congratulations! Very happy for you (and not at all envious). Great news
Sadiespaw Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 And that's exactly how I feel. And me too. Enthusiastically accepted, but waitlisted for funding. Somehow worse than being rejected. All of you who decline funding will have to keep us posted while we wait!

All of you who decline funding will have to keep us posted while we wait! I'm curious to know if they gave you any kind of info on the wait list.... I was told its possible, but not likely, that a TA will open up due to my position on the list
Porridge Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 FYI, I've declined the offer at Milwaukee. So hopefully that will help someone out.

I was told its possible, but not likely, that a TA will open up due to my position on the list He wouldn't tell me the exact position, but said something to the effect of "I can't promise you a ta, but historically some have opened up and you are near the top of the list so there is a good chance" Not all that satisfying, but better than no chance I guess. I'm really hoping because all things equal uwm is my favorite program.
This_madness Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 I just emailed UWM to decline my offer. I hope they offer funding to someone on the wait list! Best of luck to everyone. UWM's program indeed sounds wonderful, and I made the decision to decline with more than a bit of hesitation.

This_madness Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 Probably UMass. Louisville made an attractive offer too, but in the end I think UMass is the best fit for me.
