The long wait is over

I have been accepted to the Ph.D. program in Spanish at the University of Wisconsin-Madison!!


Now I have a decision to make. Part of me wanted to just say "I'm doing it" and start packing, especially given how my current job has been over the past weeks. But then I started thinking on a more practical and prudent level and have realized it may be best to ask for a deferred acceptance and see if they will let me start next fall, after my life has calmed down a bit and I am more able to move to another state.

But it's good to know I am in, after waiting for a decision from Madison since January.
