The Waiting Game

Well, we are still playing the waiting game on schools. I have heard from 5, and waiting still to hear from 4 more (yes, I applied to nine schools, crazy. We are almost finished paying off the application fees). I have been accepted at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, but have been put on the wait list to receive a TA-ship which would pay for tuition and a small salary. So that is a draw back. On the plus side though, Lincoln is almost as cheep as Rexburg (1200 sq. feet for under $750 a month), and we will be only a 7 hour drive from family and some very dear friends a little further north. For those of you still keeping score, I am waiting to here from U of Minnesota, U of Iowa, Michigan State, and Notre Dame. At this point, I am definitely not a top choice for any of them, but at the same time, I haven't been denied, so that is good. I was dumped by U of Wisconsin, U of Illinois, Purdue, and Northwestern. Hopefully this will be the week I hear, but I have been saying that for 3 weeks or so. My sinking suspicion is that I may not hear until after April 15th when the top choice students have made there decisions.
We are getting a little restless about knowing where we get to move, but we'll keep playing the waiting game.
