good news!
I heard back from NC State and got accepted to their doctoral program. They've offered me a TA which is great. I'm going to visit in March, but as of now, that's most likely where I'll be as of March. Raleigh, NC, here I come!
In other news, core exams are in 8 days. I am so nervous. I don't know that I've ever studied for a test this much.
Ok, just wanted to share happy news. I have to go study now.
