And now I wait...
I've completed all of my doctoral applications. I have only one packet to mail tomorrow, but otherwise I now wait for the inevitable thumbs-up or thumbs-down.

I have done all I can do. And now my fate lies in the hands of a few.

8. Are you requesting a fellowship ? or going self-pay
Its easier to get accepted for self-pay , but its very expensive.

12. It breaks down like this...
One school is fully funded regardless - no need to apply for a fellowship, but I am required to work as a Research or Teaching Assistant.

I'm applying for fellowships/assistantships at the other two schools.
