<p>So I just checked one of the graduate schools that I applied to and under "Submission Status" it states:</p>
<p>Recommended by Program; processing at the Graduate School</p>
<p>What does "Graduate School" entail? Is it just some paperwork or is it another selection committee? The word "processing" makes me think (and hope) that I have basically been selected, but they are just checking my information...is this a valid assumption? Thanks!</p>
<p>Generally that means you are accepted, pending a final review by the Graduate School which will just make sure that the department dotted the t’s and crossed the i’s. Still, wait a week or two and it should be final.</p>
<p>Thanks! I hope you are right!</p>
<p>wow, already?</p>
<p>Yes, I was amazed as well. I received a phone call from a representative a couple of weeks ago and she said that since I have all of my paperwork in, I should know “within a few weeks”. Apparently she wasn’t lying.</p>
<p>I haven’t even finished the application process for most of my other schools (still waiting on paperwork to arrive/recommendation letters from busy professors), but I am happy because this particular school is in my top 2. :)</p>
<p>Woohoo! I just got into Purdue!</p>
<p>Congrats!!</p>
