3. Do you want to start right away?
If so, that's bad news. Is there another school you can apply to?

6. Not to get your hopes up too much, but remember that
most people apply to multiple grad programs and if accepted to more than one program they can only choose one, so some people that are accepted will turn down their offers and go elsewhere. However, as mentioned above, much depends on your place on the list. Good luck!

I hope they have room for you. Have you applied anywhere else?

12. Better than a poke in the eye, though
I agree w/ the folks upthread; call and inquire as to your place on the list. Good luck!

18. Someone might drop, so hold on!
You didn't get a rejection now, did you?
Art major here, Chavez. I can imagine what angst you are feeling.
I hope it works out. I've heard grad school can be hard to get into at times.
