Hi everyone,

Just a quick question to the great ones here. I sent my academic transcript and credentials to the graduate coordinator of an Ivy league school. He reviewed my credentials and indicated that I am a competitive candidate and urged me to apply, thereby sending a message to the graduate office for the application fee waiver upon my request.

I later had a correspondence with him concerning research interest as my past/ current research aligns with his. I asked him if he will be taking students in his research group. He responded in the affirmative saying as it happens, he is looking for students this year and he is glad to hear of my interest in his research group and will make sure to lookout for my application when it arrives.

Is this a positive sign. ? Thanks
