Is it worthwhile to maybe apply for some jobs just in case for some freak reason I manage to not get in? I guess it's hitting me I'm graduating soon and I'm starting to freak just a bit.

I don't see how it could hurt, just as a fallback option. At worst, at least as far as I can think, you get a job offer and have to turn it down when you get the good news from U of P. |
