Thanks! I have already decided on Chicago so I just sent them another email thanking them for the acceptance but telling them I withdrew yesterday morning. Hopefully that opens up a spot for someone on here still waiting!

Thanks that's good enough, you give me and others hope that an acceptance will come in the next 2 days (yet it won't for me).

Sorry to hear :(. It must be nice to get your mail in the morning, though. My mailman usually arrives around 5 PM.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
