<p>Well.. they e-mailed me to tell me I was rejected... I'm kind of glad I didn't check online with their system thingy...</p>
<p>i got no email x____x
only found out when i checked it =/</p>
<p>i still haven't gotten my rejection email...</p>
<p>harsh, when it said "rice admission decision" in my email
and got me all excited...</p>
<p>damn, i was expecting a rejection- but surprises are always fun!</p>
<p>I was waitlisted at Rice. I think waitlisted usually means rejected. How often does a waitlisted person get in?</p>
<p>I'm heartbroken. Logically, I knew the chances were 50/50. Guess it was wishful thinking. It would have been a perfect fit though. Is a 2300 SAT, 34 ACT, National Merit Finalist, etc. applicant not good enough for Rice? Even the interview went very well. AAAHHHH!</p>
<p>wow that sucks...you have better scores than me even though I'm also a National Merit Finalist and I got in. I've experienced the same thing with other colleges though. It's such a wierd, unpredictable process.</p>
<p>I got rejected too.</p>
<p>getting rejected over time is much better..i got rejected by 6 schools in a 6 day period (UCLA, Berkeley, Rice, GW [on a side note ***??? it was my safety...oh well i've gotten into better already], UPenn and USC.)</p>
<p>so be happy you got into UCLA and/or Berkeley. and seriously GW you're crazy.</p>
<p>denied but not heartbroken. I view the admissions process as a date; you have to get rejected if either the school doesn't suit you, or the student doesn't suit the school. So I think that is very representative. And good luck to you guys at other schools.</p>
