Don't know much about Florida.

Singmeat got into FRED last year, but said that they could not fund anybody because of a budget crisis. Not sure if that is true for this year.

I haven't heard anything from them at all. I suppose I can safely assume the people they want the most have heard from them, haha.

There's one Maryland AREC admit on the decision thread. (great great job takethemoneyandrun, congrats) Time for me to freak out, I guess.

Thanks very much, guys. I will post my profile soon after my TM-induced insecurity fully wears off, but feel free to PM me if you are interested in any of my stats.

Anybody else?

They offered you a very generous stipend. I presume you are still leaning toward ASU?

One thing I wanted to say that may be of interest to people here. I learned from a Professor at Cornell AEM that the program does not admit student's without a Masters' directly into the PhD program. For someone with just a BA, the best possible outcome when applying to the PhD program is an MS admit. In such cases, if the person's grades are fine and they pass the first-year MS examination, they usually are allowed to enter the PhD.

I feel that they should have put this information on their website. I would not have applied had I known that a PhD admit was impossible.
