6 years full funding. First acceptance :)

E-vite says "Congratulations! We're delighted to inform you that you've been admitted to the English Ph.D. program at Indiana University." Strange but awesome.

Found out when I received an email invite to the recruitment event. That's literally all I've heard. I'd written them off.

My first acceptance! So excited

Call from POI at 9 pm - totally unexpected. Invited to recruitment weekend during their grad conference with Lauren Berlant as keynote! So wish I could attend, but already accepted offer from another place.

Missed the phone call. Voicemail message states I've got a fellowship nomination! Applied as Victorianist.

"Dear applicant..." Considering that I probably paid about $3 per word for this rejection letter, they could at least do the courtesy of inserting my name in it.

Accepted off the wait-list I didn't know I was on. I keep sitting here saying, "I can't believe it! I can't believe it!" I had assumed an implicit rejection.

waitlisted for first-year fellowship

Woo! First year fellowship and full funding for six years! An offer I may not be able to refuse...

I got a really nice email from a professor in my area of study. First acceptance letter : )

Same as poster below. Very excited.

I received early notification because of a fellowship nomination. Woot! First acceptance! :)
