Myself, I'm still waiting for:
UCSC, Wisconsin-Madison, and Michigan-Ann Arbor.

I know people have been accepted to a school in Michigan, I'm not sure which one. Also UNC, Chapel Hill has sent acceptances.
There are 8 schools on this list people have heard from that I applied to and haven't heard from and it's driving me nuts. I think I will wait until after I have visited the schools I've been accepted to and then start emailing departments.

I have been accepted into several astro grad programs and I am now having some trouble choosing where to go. I figured maybe someone on this forum would have some insight. I am leaning towards observational astrophysics though I am still interested in theory so I need a fairly diverse program.
Anyone have any insight or opinions of any of these astro programs?
UHawaii
UIUC
UCSC
UT
UArizona
Where would you go?
thanks

Is anyone else still waiting to hear from the University of Washington? I am so frustrated with them. They haven't responded to my email about my application status in the last two days- at least have the courtesy to respond, guys. I don't understand how I was admitted to Princeton and UW won't give me the time of day.
I finally heard from Madison .
I just got accepted into their astro program.
Thats it for me. I have now heard from all of my schools and I can stop checking my email and mailbox 5 times a day.
Now that the wait is over I can resume the great trek across the country to visit the programs before making a choice next month.
thanks and good luck everyone who is still waiting to hear.

I emailed some programs I applied to and here's some info I heard back.
Cornell: "We are still processing a number of applications, including yours, and realistically we expect the assessment and review process to continue for another month or so."
UCSC: "If you have not heard from the admissions committee yet, you may assume that you have not been admitted. The official notifications will go out sometime next week. We had well over 120 applicants and could only admit 20."
U of Washington's website says they won't talk about till after April 15.
