Anyone Applying Early

<p>Holy crap, I thought i was the only Obie stalker. I applied EDI and I've been going to the website ever since. I look at all the blogs, all the Oberlin "stories", everything. I've made the website my homepage. If I dont get in, I think I might die. Good luck to all us Oberlin fanatics here!
Less than a week of waiting left!</p>

<p>Does anyone know when Oberlin is gonna mail out the letters? A lot of similar colleges mailed them out today, so I've heard.</p>

<p>I just talked to someone in admissions who said they're mailing them "by the 15th"... so they haven't gone out yet.</p>

<p>Can't wait any longer...going insane!</p>

<p>animel, I feel the same way!</p>

<p>Only a few days left!</p>

<p>Hang in there! (If you think this is bad, imagine the wait between December and the start of Orientation...)</p>

<p>Accepted...</p>

<p>Congrats impsuit!
I visited yesterday and confirmed my desire to apply edII.
Unfortunately, I didn't get to schedule an interview beforehand, but I did request an alumnus interview. I got to talk to the admissions officer for my area, and she really made me feel a lot more confident about my chances. When I was in the admissions office yesterday, they were excited about mailing out all of the ED letters that afternoon, so expect them shortly. Good luck to everyone else still waiting on their responses.</p>

<p>are you from Korea impsuit? congrats!</p>

<p>btw can you share ur sat score and GPA?</p>

<p>Yes, I'm from Korea(Don't ask me which!) and I'll share my stats. Not because they're pretty, but to shine a ray of hope to all future applicants... :D</p>

<p>GPA: 3.65
SAT: R740 M780 W690 Combined.
And I received an aid package about half the amount.
I think I got mainly because of the prestige of my high school, into which I got in mostly by good luck.</p>

<p>impsuit congratulations!</p>

<p>how'd they tell you? Letter or email?</p>

<p>congratulations!! :) i hope this means letters will be in our mailboxes soon! </p>

<p>i can't wait any longer!!!</p>

<p>kiralll511, keep your fingers crossed!</p>

<p>E-mail, since I'm an international.</p>

<p>Hey guys, I don't know whether if this is too soon, but I've just created the class of 2013 facebook group. Yeah, I'm always going ahead of things. If you get to hear the good news, you can come over and join.</p>

<p>It's never too soon. I hope I'll be able to join...<br>
Now I have a random story. I was on this Winter Tree ID walk in Frick Park the other day. (I live in Pittsburgh) And the car next to mine had an Oberlin bumper sticker! So I figured out whose car it was and talked to the people. Hopefully it was a sign, haha.</p>

<p>haha I think I got your name impsuit. In more than one month I will figure out can I join the group with you or not!!</p>

<p>if you dont mind can you pm me? i want to hear your advice on my "why" essay. Glad if you can help!!</p>

<p>Hey, guess what? I just called to the admissions office of a different school I applied EA to withdraw my application, and the international officer said that she was an Oberlin graduate. I guess it's true: Obies are everywhere!</p>

<p>I just got my letter! I'm in!!!! So excited.
And as a ray of hope to everyone, I don't have an amazing SAT or anything. Just passion.
