I hear back from Indiana today and found out I will receive full funding with decent stipend in the form of tuition remissions, a teaching assistantship, healthcare, and a fellowship during the summer (monthly payments during the summer would be a few hundred dollars less).. The director said that they would be sending me a letter with the specifics but I was wondering if anyone knew how fellowships during the summer generally work, would I be able to have a job during the summer? Good to know I will definitely be working towards my phd next year but I am still hoping to get off of delawares wait list! Congrats @KnowVac !!! My guess is your formal offer will outline whether or not you can have a job and fellowship, but I know schools do things differently. KnowVac 1

It feels like no matter how much I hear back from schools I always end up with more questions than answers!
liesandfish Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Wait listed at Georgia State University, I'll be withdrawing my app as per my decision has already been made. But just an update for anyone else who applied, portal appeared update this afternoon. Cedodge 1
ThesisTerror724 Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 It's actually grating on my nerves that I haven't heard from ASU or that anyone else has. Cedodge and liesandfish 2
Cedodge Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 @ThesisTerror724 The good news is that we know we are both waiting. Imagine not knowing anyone else's status...
ThesisTerror724 Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 @Cedodge ah, you are right! Good way to look at it.
Partinrn Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 I want to thank each and every single one of you for sending good vibes/thoughts for my interview (and, let's not kid, the airplane ride!). I can say now that I will accept Sam Houston's offer (full funding for four years) and will decline the others. Hopefully those of you waiting will hear good news soon. Networking is key, and closer to when classes begin I would like to get everyone's thoughts about giving our personal email/number so we can keep in touch and hopefully work together down the road. Thanks again! liesandfish, KnowVac and Cedodge 3

KnowVac Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 @Partinrn congratulations! I am definitely interested in keeping in touch, networking is truly the key! Partinrn and liesandfish 2

Cedodge Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 @ThesisTerror724 @Kylie_ That spam mail from ASU tonight was not fair.
ThesisTerror724 Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 I'm over ASU. They can shove it. UCI offered me more $$$ for my first year and my Rutgers visit is this weekend. I'll be making my official decision after. Cedodge 1
Cedodge Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 @ThesisTerror724 I don't blame you. I'm going to enjoy my visit to USF this weekend, and not worry about ASU for the time being.
liesandfish Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 @ThesisTerror724 makes total sense! Glad you still have other great offers. @Cedodge enjoy! We are suppose to have some nice weather around here this weekend! Cedodge 1
Cedodge Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 @ThesisTerror724 @Kylie_ ASU just posted on the website. I was not accepted, but that just made my decision process easier. Cest la vie! liesandfish 1
CrimTheory Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 @soci_to_crim have you managed to work out your trip to DC? I could give you some recommendations of places to go and hook you up with another person accepted in your cohort!
ThesisTerror724 Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 @Cedodge My status still says "In Review" so I don't know what to read into that. But glad you know so that you can move on! @liesandfish exactly! I'm really pleased with all of my offers and with the things I've heard about the ASU program, I'm not going to stress about it anymore. liesandfish and phdincrim2016 2
soci_to_crim Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Now I'm curious...what about ASU? @CrimTheory...I am unsure if I will be able to make the trip to DC unless they are willing to cover more of the expense.
