<p>S got accepted by UWisconsin-Madison yesterday. I think his excitement is about 75% relief...he was honestly worried that he wouldn't get in anywhere, despite near-constant parental reassurance. He's a NMSF who attends one of the best high schools in the country...I think he's responding to the general admissions craziness...anyone else feel there's gotta be a better way?</p>
<p>Still, we are over the moon about the acceptance and will plan a visit to Madison. Congratulations to everyone accepted...fingers crossed for those still waiting...like S is for his other ten schools! (Yikes)</p>
<p>my D was accepted at bryn mawr. we're all so excited. it could not have happened to a nicer, more deserving person (but, of course, i'm biased! and proud of it!)</p>
<p>Congratulations DGIAN! And lucky you! My D was accepted ED but her college is one thousand miles away :(… at least I would have my two kids together</p>
<p>Congratulations to everyone ! :) Daughter got into Harvard...her little shoulders started to shake while she read the news...Whew what a year it has been!</p>
<p>A hearty Maine congrats to all.....it is a pleasure to read all the supportive comments the kids are writing....ie Williams thread wishing best to Princeton kids and on and on...... it is a magical moment to KNOW where your child will be for 4 years.....what a huge relief......and, speaking from a deferred vantage point a few years ago, I can only say that great things come to those who WAIT!!</p>
<p>Moments before the start of our Hanukkah "celebration" tonight my son found out he was rejected from Stanford. Ah, well. He took it okay, but it made for a somewhat somber evening. At least he had already found out he was accepted at UT for his first choice major. Too bad about the timing of the decision, though.</p>
<p>Congrats to all who were accepted at their ED/EA schools, and condolences to those who weren't. There will be more to come!</p>
<p>My DD got into Stanford. I was in my car on my way home when she called me to give me the good news. I had the strangest reaction: Tears came to my eyes. I am not sure if the tears were because I was so happy for her or the realization that she will be gone in a few months. Perhaps it was a bit of both. </p>
<p>I, too, offer my sincere congratulations to all CC parents.</p>
<p>Son got into Cornell. Thanks to the many posters on this site who steered a newbie like me to some genuinely good advice, no matter how silly my questions, back this Fall when I started visiting here. This is a very cool place. Congrats to all!</p>
<p>My son was accepted at Princeton today ED. Admissions had told us they were mailing the notifications today so I didn't expect the big envelope in the mailbox when I got the mail this afternoon. I admit to shedding a few tears before I called him at school. He had all the other applications ready to go if he had been turned down and what a wonderful Christmas present that he won't have to send them in. Congratulations to everyone else who has gotten good news this year!</p>
