admission letter received, but there is no information for funding or decision deadline. I've already sent email, no reply yet.

PI told me that I have been accepted and an offer letter will be sent towards the end of this week.

I am done with the second interview on 6th Feb virtually.

Received informal offer Saturday night

Got an email from the coordinator to have a phone call tomorrow. Expecting good results.
