The Count - updated times two

2 letters in, 2 + NSF to go...

Santa Cruz: I'm in!!!! Moneywise, they've offered a full ride for the first year (yay!), and after that I have to start fighting with everybody else for TA jobs and all that bizniz. But this means that I have the clear and available possibility of starting a totally awesome phd program next year without adding one more nasty cent to my already overwhelming debt. Yay!

Berkeley: They're bitches!!!!

Davis: Yay! Not only am I in, they're providing up to $800 for travel expenses to come visit. Which I was going to do anyways... but, you know, slipped the plane ticket onto my mom's credit card along with the grandparent visit. so that's awesome. UCSC also offered me (less) money for visiting, so I figure I can eat at real restaurants and such instead of doing the bread n cheese travel plan. alRIGHT.

UW: also bitches.

50% average overall... and into my first choice. so, a lot better than the last time around, eh? eh.
