<p>This is the case of Me. I was accepted to Harvard via Early Action. Then I was accepted to Princeton, MIT, Caltech, Yale, Brown. Every school I applied to but one.</p>
<p>Has this ever happened to anyone? Any explanation? This prolly comes off as obnoxious. It's just been hurting and I'm wonderin where I went wrong...</p>
<p>Accepted Harvard Yale Princeton Brown Caltech Mass Inst of Tech
Rejected....Stanford.</p>
<p>Sorry to here about Stanford but congratulations on making it to all the other great colleges. What kind of GPA, SAT scores and ECs did you have, do you mind sharing ?</p>
<p>haha...I was quite the opposite...deferred from Harvard via Early Action (late interview might have done it though...I actually had to call the admissions office to get the number of my local interviewer who never contacted me)</p>
<p>I got into Stanford, Caltech, Boston U BS/MD program, USC Trustee Scholar (Full Tuition), all the UCs, Northwestern, Rice (Trustee, Century Scholar), etc. All but one...</p>
<p>got my fateful rejection from Harvard on good 'ol Apr 1 (04...yeah I'm an oldie). Who knows?</p>
<p>yea...congrats! Stanford is an awesome school...and this just goes to show how weird the entire process is...</p>
<p>What does it matter anyway? Did you desparately want to get into Stanford or something? If not, then why care? And even if you did, would you go there rather than harvard, the top school in the country?</p>
<p>Seriously though, I think you'll be fine....but for all of us helpless people out there....you should really post your stats</p>
<p>GPA---4.0 Unweighted. Class Rank was 1/440.
SAT---1570. 770 Math, 800 Verbal.
SAT 2---800 writing, 770 math 2c, 770 history us.</p>
<p>My ECs are all right. I've got my sports, music, and local, state, national, and international recognition in things like debate and science research. Tired right now. But I got Intel ISEF grand award in the mix.</p>
<p>EDIT--I chose to go to Harvard, just thought I would add, but Stanford would have been my first choice because of the weather and how well-rounded it is, and I prefer west-coast culture to east-coast for long-run health. Stanford has great linguistics and great polymers, both of which I'd love to study. Also, it's easier to double major and minor at Stanford than at most of my other schools</p>
<p>dr_slc...I guess it all occurs for a reason</p>
<p>wow, did you apply to any safety schools??? Obviously didn't need to though...</p>
<p>Cheers, because I got rejected Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Brown, Amherst
Accepted: Stanford.</p>
<p>Maybe they got our applications mixed up? :)</p>
<p>I got rejected from Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, MIT, and Caltech.</p>
<p>Accepted at Yale. Who knows why this stuff happens. Stanford was also my number one choice.</p>
<p>Yay I got into Harvard, Stanford, Yale, Princeton, MIT, and Caltech. I guess I got lucky.</p>
<p>no rooster u just sleep your way to the top, u proud of that!</p>
<p>As a man, I'd LOVE to sleep my way to the top. That would be the life. Get a raise both on the job and off. Sweet.</p>
<p>don't stress your dog out to much ok tiger?</p>
<p>This guy is such a troll. eaglemax86 you must have some serious insecurities or psychological issues in your life.</p>
<p>People who made it to Stanford, congratulations, what kind of ECs did you have? The fact that they do not have an interview help?</p>
<p>3 schools total apps:</p>
<p>Stanford EA - accept
Rice University - Interim - defer, regular Deny.
UC Berkeley - accept</p>
<p>interesting...</p>
<p>ECs...piano, hospital volunteering, clinic volunteer, visual arts, web design, HOSA/health prof. organizations, stuff like that...most ppl said my ECs were on the weak side, but I'm proud of what I did do. Stanford was apparently all right with it. =)</p>
<p>i got the SAME exact results. I applied </p>
<p>Stanford EA - Deferred, then rejected
Harvard - accepted
Yale- accepted
Princeton- accepted
MIT - accepted. </p>
<p>Screw Stanfurd.</p>
<p>Yale- accepted
Stanford EA- rejected outright
Harvard- rejected
Princeton-rejected
MIT- rejected
Caltech- rejected</p>
<p>I think Stanford could be one of the hardest schools to get into nowadays.</p>
<p>If want join UC palo a.to, move to CA.</p>
<p>A lot of the top schools are really random. One kid at my school who was ridiculously over-qualified (USA Today All-USA High School Second Team) was initially deferred from MIT, then got in RD everywhere he applied except Princeton. He was accepted to Harvard, Yale, Caltech, Duke, Stanford, Cornell, Penn, and a couple safeties. Oh, and he finally got into MIT. He's going to Harvard, though.</p>
<p>^ lol the most obvious ■■■■■ in the history of time.</p>
<p>Did you decide to apply to Stanford SCEA, Yale SCEA, Cornell ED, Harvard (which doesn’t do EA) etc. at the same time? :P</p>
<p>Or did you regular decision results come in before the deadline?</p>
