Contact #3

This afternoon I received an email from a top 20 social psychology program in the ACC that I have been wait-listed for their program.  I had assumed I was out of the running at this program because some people received their acceptance or wait-list notification a week ago, but I guess it's just taking them some time to get emails out to all of us.  They are aiming for an incoming class size of 4 students out of over 160 applications.

I have to admit that being on the wait list (rather than being accepted) feels both good (for obvious reasons) and relaxing (because I am waiting to find out if enough people they've accepted end up turning them down so I move up the list into the accepted category and thus there is no immediate call to action on my part, like preparing for an interview or thinking about how much I like this program compared to others).
