English, University Of Maryland, College Park To the person on the waitlist at Maryland,
It seems that they are reconfiguring the TA line at this time of the year that they accept more students than the number of the slots available when offering admissions. The result is that, according to what the secretary told me, they sometimes accept PhD students without funding although they seek to fund all PhD admits.

English, University Of Maryland, College Park To the person who had the question regarding funding status as indicated by the wait list email, here is the portion verbatim: "You are one of about 15 students who remain in the pool of applicants. If you are ultimately admitted, it will be with the support of a 4-year financial aid package including tuition remission and a Teaching Assistantship
stipend." If you have been admitted, but you're funding is still undetermined, then I have no clue what my email really means.

Thanks.

English, University Of Maryland, College Park To the person who got waitlisted at Maryland English program. Are you saying that the waitlist amounts to 17 persons? Or the figure includes those who already got admitted with funding? Well, I am in another status of being admitted yet waitlisted for funding. I wonder how many of us are waiting to hear from them.
