Got an email from Lori. I was on the waitlist before. Already declined. Northwestern is not giving funding to anyone after the 5th year and doesn't help with funding for trips/conferences/etc. Also, the program is extremely competitive by nature, since it has not much attention from professors. I am going to Minnesota.
