Congrats! I'm still waiting to hear from a few programs, but UNC is the plan at the moment. Did the email let you know anything about admitted students weekend? My letter mentioned it, but there were absolutely no details.

Thanks for the congrats! My letter stated this about the visitation weekend:

"Finally, we hope that you will visit our department this spring, so that you can gain a better sense of what we have to offer. Our admitted students’ weekend is scheduled for Thursday evening, March 31 through a brunch on Saturday, April 2. The department will provide reimbursement for up to $400 in travel expenses, if you are able to attend. Please contact our Graduate Coordinator to make arrangements for this event." 

I'm not sure if you got the same paragraph, but I assume that they will send a schedule later on.

  • Offered $121,343/year along with BMW lease for work and a Range Rover lease for personal use. Housing is condo on the beach to be provided by departmental funding. Three French trained butlers to be at my service. Regular foot runs from SH. Probably won't take it though. I'll just try to leverage it at a different school for some more cash. OSU offered me all of New Jersey to attend there, so yeah.

Lmao! UCSD is a king maker! Now I can't tell if the other ones are jokes either.

I almost posted something similar after I saw the original post and then my computer died.  Let's call it a day!

Haha glad I could make you laugh :) happy to claim it! Best friends- yes. Here's to hoping we both end up at a CHYMPS? ;)
 

Sad that the mods don't believe my awesome stats though (jealous maybe?) and already yanked it. Glad you saved the memory!

It's probably too soon since they said they would release more info about the event soon. I know I won't know until I see the schedule for the event.

Oh I got an email earlier today with schedule & reimbursement info etc. I am planning to book the ticket ASAP since I do not get a lot of reimbursement for my domestic flyout

I wonder if I didn't get it yet because I live an hour and a half from UCSD.

People who got admissions to UCI...have you checked your financial aid package (its listed online). I got 6 years of the social sciences teaching award...just wondering if anybody got non-teaching fellowships? It seems generous but it appears that this teaching commitment is for every single quarter...which seems exhausting? I thought first years didn't have to teach in most schools... :/ Anybody else get a diff. financial support package?

I received it and I'm also about an hour and a half away so you might want to double check with the department to make sure they didn't miss you or something.
