So, McGill it is, for sure! Yeah!---------------------------
I apologize for waiting until the last minute to contact you about the fate of our waiting list in the Department of Hebrew and Judaic Studies at NYU. Several students with outstanding offers have waited until the last minute to respond, in some cases because like you, they are visiting campuses or keeping open the possibility of a last-minute offer from another school.I am sorry to say that we have decided to close down our waiting list after accepting just one student from it. From our side, this has been good news, because we had the best yield from tendered offers that I have seen in all my years at NYU, after a weak year last time around. The result is that we have to say no to some excellent candidates, who have prospects for real success in these fields. We wish you the best good fortune as you make your plans from this point forward.

Mazel tov! So excited for you guys :)
Now I can finally visit Canada, too! It's a win-win really.
I am so glad you have finally know where you will be! Also - I loved your post on community. It really is SO true no matter your stripe. There are so many up sides and downsides to a "close" community and you never really hear it discussed except in a wholly positive or negative light - either positive by people entrenched in a community or negative by those who have left a community. Nice to see the discussion seeing it with a little more objectivity.
