I hear Amherst is out now.
Rejected from Amherst… ACCEPTED TO STANFORD!!!
O_O WOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
OMG! how are you going to be able to choose?
You have done so very well; your clouds all have silver linings!
Congratulations to you.
Whoooaaaaa . . . you have hit the Mother Lode!!! STANFORD!!! ^:)^
Congratulations, well done. =D>
STANFORD! Wow!!! Congratulations!!! Kid, you are gonna go far!
Congrats to you! As an Amherst parent, it’s too bad Amherst isn’t going to get you. You will be an asset wherever you go!
^ what thankyou said. And now you get to make some tough choices!
Oh my gosh. I didn’t even think I would get this far. In a peculiar way, I really hope I don’t get into anymore schools on Ivy Day. I’m already faced with such tough choices. Its crazy. How good is Stanford’s undergrad anyway? Now I guess I have to do some research on it now that I may be going there.
Wow, Stanford, Williams, Duke, Cornell was it?.. You have the world to choose from… Congratulations.
Go to the school you like the most and when you get fin aid packages you may be able to squeeze extra money out of your favorite if they aren’t your top choice.
Appeal for a clothing budget if you don’t live in a very cold part of the country and need stuff for the snow. Tell them that the cheapest college offered you this package and coa is lower.
For you, and most kids with lower finances, I am sure this would be able to get you at least 2,000 more.
@ToBeHonestt I’ll do that. That didn’t even occur to me. Thanks!
Oh lord, T-minus 34 minutes…
Keep yourself busy - TV show, good book, videogame… indulge. You’ve earned it!
While I imagine you will add an option or two this evening, you already have such awesome ones I bet you’re not too nervous?
I got rejected from Columbia and Dartmouth… Accepted to Brown… AND YALE!!!
Woooowwwwww…
So, Williams vs. Stanford vs. Yale vs. Brown?
That should make for a popular and fun thread in the “college selection” forum!!
Wow @ASJU9511!!! That is fabulous news. You have to feel great.
Wow, this is truly incredible. Thank you guys so much for your support and helpfulness. I really do appreciate it a lot.
SO after months of sweating and anxiety, these are my final results:
ACCEPTED: Stanford, Yale, Emory, Duke, Brown, Cornell, Williams, University of South Carolina, Clemson.
REJECTED: Dartmouth, Columbia, Amherst (sad emoji), Vanderbilt, and Yale NUS.
I’m going to post a final results thread and post in the college selections forum probably. Anything else you guys suggest?
Keep updating this thread with your decision process - which school you cut first and why, then when it gets tough which are the remaining schools and why they’re still on your list and how to distinguish… perhaps fly ins/admitted student day reports…
Congratulations! The world is your oyster
