Notes
I was surprised at how late this is, but I got a call from a ChE professor at Austin who congratulated me on my NSF GRFP award and then accepted me to the program (the order of this news delivery I'm sure is very intentional and I appreciate that they are honest). They explained that due to a humongous class last year, this year they were limited in the students they can accept. I take all of this to mean that because I now had funding, they were accepting me. I did get officially rejected on March 11th, though.... and yes, they did call me on April 1st, but I highly doubt they were joking. I'm most likely attending elsewhere but thanks for your honesty, UT Austin!
