"Hi Jonathan,
"I'm following up from our conversation earlier this month. I'm still making my decisions about who to hire for the translation project, but it looks more likely that I'll be hiring postdocs. I'm on the admissions committee for the computer science department and I recommended that you be admitted to the master's degree. I just finished reviewing the applications today, and handed them off to our administrator. Yours was at the top of the pile with an A+ rating, so hopefully she'll reply quickly to you.
"I'll keep you in the loop about the translation project and will let you know if there are any openings. I'd really like to work with you, and think that your background would provide quite interesting insights into the project."
Sweet enough.
