Pretty much knew this, but at least I can cross it off the list now.

Email provided a link to get my letter, which was dated 2/23. Very generic form letter.

Well, at least they have gay marriage now.

7 rejections so far. Let's assume another 2 for UC and Harvard. PhD applications are an amazing way to learn how to hate yourself.

Offered fellowships at 2 other programs, so I'll be removing myself from the wait list.

Wait-listed to PhD. Offered admission to unfunded MA; also invited to attend open house March 14-15.

I was asking about a fellowship and was told that I was on the "second list," but that they wouldn't be able to send out second-list notifications until April. I don't believe they have sent out any notifications yet.

Got a call from one of the Romanticists there this morning. It was in my top three, so I'm quite pleased.

Email said check decision status online; rejected. About 10 days later, a letter came in the mail. Emailed requesting specific rejection reasons and got reply within 2-3 days.

Sent an email with a link to website ASF.

via Testudo, decision made 3/17: "Not recommended for admission. A confirmation letter is being sent."

no funding, though GAships are available

I'm assuming this is unfunded, since I haven't heard from the department directly. We'll see. But it's still nice to be wanted!

Checked Testudo on a whim; no word from UMD officially. Applied for PhD, accepted for MA.

A snail mail follow-up on an email to check the web site status a week or two ago.
