could have been in limbo for another month. thanks for not prolonging the pain nw.

Received acceptance email after previously only receiving invitation to visit -- $21,400 fellowship, happy:)

Called the department directly; was told decisions would go out "Next week, probably Monday or Tuesday".

Previously posted an invite to the visiting weekend - now officially accepted.

Also received the Applicant weekend email. Called grad office and was informed of acceptance. She said they're going down the list to notify people via email.

"Hello and congratulations on your invitation to visit Northwestern University during our Applicant Visit Weekend, March 3-6, 2011." It does not say anything about being accepted, just an invitation to visit.

Im not surprised given that Northwestern seems to want to reject everybody.

Sad but not surprising. A truly great program!
