I thought this would be a fun little thread to talk about what schools we have been accepted to and to talk about what we’re nervous or excited about and what we’re generally feeling throughout the application process. I’ll start… What was your reaction when you found out you were in?
I was at dinner with my friends at this pizza place in Belfast and we had just ordered our food. Earlier in the day, I’d said I’d check my results that night. But then, I got kinda chicken-y when I was about to look and compromised saying “How about I just check my email, confirm that my decisions are there in my inbox and then not look at them” So, I logged into my email and the first thing I saw was “Revisit Day confirmed at Tabor Academy!” And I began to FREAK. Like I was laughing, but also crying and I launched across the table to give my friend a hug. Did I make a scene? Yes. Did I care? No. So then, I just kept looking at all of them and my friends were freaking out and ah, memories.
I didn’t think I’d get in anywhere and my sister basically forced me to open my email or she would. I had to reread “You’ve been accepted to The Taft School!” at least 500 times. It didn’t set in for a good five minutes, and when it did I started crying.
I only applied to four schools, so no. I’m just happy I didn’t spend my time on a hundred different schools and not get into any of them. @HistoryGeek40
