I think you should wait it out. Usually at this stage, HR is prepping to mail you a formal paper offer to sign. Congratulations.
Agree with Big Al. It can take some time before you receive the paper offer. Congrats.
If you get the thick envelope it is a good sign, the thin envelope is a bad sign. Wait it out --
If you already accepted your offer just chill out. It took 2 weeks for me to get all my stuff in the mail.
Thanks for the advice guys, I really appreciate it. But does it matter at all that this is an unpaid position at a very small fund where they don't usually take interns? I dealt directly with the manager, so there's no HR involved, and I'm probably not going to have to sign any paperwork.
