<p>i dont believe </p>
<p>so hurt</p>
<p>waitlisted, but thats pretty much what i expected since i spent the least amount of time on stanfords app. im probably not going to be going there anyway, so i dont think ill be hurt too much if they reject me. </p>
<p>like someone said before in this thread, we're still in a very select group of people...i havent heard anyone from my school who got in (they were all waitlisted EA), and these were really amazing people at a highly nationally ranked public school.</p>
<p>also, does anyone know if the wait list acceptance thing is binding? that is, if we agree to be on the waitlist and we're accepted, we have to go to stanford?</p>
<p>thats not the case.</p>
<p>btw kill me plz</p>
<p>Waitlisted...what a decisive decision! :D</p>
<p>I was waitlisted too!!
and everyone should feel awesome because we are the top 15%..
if stanford wanted to accept a bit more, we'd be in :)</p>
<p>I got waitlisted but I probably won't request to be put on the wait list (I've already got into schools that are higher on my list)</p>
<p>Waitlisted for Stanford, but that's kinda okay; I already made my decision with Princeton. Just hurts my ego! lol
=P</p>
<p>my friend who's ranked 1/715 and 4.33 GPA got waitlisted</p>
<p>waitlisted</p>
<p>definitely hard to take</p>
<p>Well I at least tried my best and I have no regrets. (After the few hours of just utter silence, I have recuperated.) =] Though now I am worry about the Ivies (4 possible rejections on Monday)</p>
<p>^Exactly the same case with me dwindlelights.</p>
<p>I was over at a friend's house when i checked and was utterly silent for a long time.. and now I feel much better.</p>
<p>I'm REALLY worried about my 4 ivies coming out on Monday too!</p>
<p>Do you guys think that Stanford is tougher to get into than some ivies? :</p>
<p>I guess my decision to put myself on the waiting list would depend on what comes out on Monday..</p>
<p>Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>I'm 1/688, 4.7 GPA, I worked really hard on the essays and such (poured my heart out), but I suppose I was lacking in uniqueness.</p>
<p>I double checked my list.</p>
<p>I have 5 Ivy League universities responding to me on Monday with their decisions!</p>
<p>Ugh... I hate being on the waitlist. And let's just not even think about the Ivies...</p>
<p>i told a few friends that im quite happy to be waitlisted and most responded with confusion, so here are my two reasons:
1. wait list is not acceptance; i wont be over-confident on monday with the ivy decisions. high expectation usually means heavier fall.
2. wait list is not rejection; i wont lose the momentum ive gathered in the past few months (like barack obama, in a sense).

<p>Take a look at the statistics last year: <a href="http://www.stanford.edu/home/statistics/#admission%5B/url%5D">http://www.stanford.edu/home/statistics/#admission</a></p>
<p>OMG elisaxbanana! Same here! I'm ranked 1/692 students, 4.4 GPA, and poured my heart into the Stanford essays but maybe we are just unoriginal. =[ </p>
<p>Oh well, I have my beloved UCLA and UC Berkeley to fall back on. =]</p>
<p>I got wait listed at around 3:50 PM. I didn't even know how to feel !</p>
<p>Optimistic point of view: We didn't get rejected...we actually qualified for Stanford!!! There just wasn't enough space....</p>
<p>Pessimistic point of view: We didn't get accepted...</p>
<p>I'm tired from the adrenaline running through my veins every time I see a college letter. I feel like crashing now.</p>
<p>::SIGH:: So much for my dream school...the admittance rate for people on the wait-list are worse than regular admissions.</p>
<p>I thought that the freshman class was only 1,670 or so it said on the e-mail.</p>
<p>me too dwindlelights!!! March 31st seems so ominous after waitlists from Duke and Stanford:( but we are in the 15% !!!! Don't lose hope everybody!!!! We are all amazing people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
