Anyone else get a Likely Letter?

<p>How many other people got this?</p>

<p>Me, and an all-expense paid visit package. </p>

<p>Yeah, same here. Are you going? I’m actually kind of excited.</p>

<p>idk I’d really love to, but I’ve missed 6 days of school this semester, I’m missing school tomorrow and I’ll probably miss again before then so I’m in a bit of a pickle.</p>

<p>What are your guys’ stats? I was kind of expecting to get an invite to the Reilly Weekend…</p>

<p>SAT: M 800 C 760 W 740
ACT: 35 (All 36s except Science (33)
SAT II: M2 800 BioM 790
GPA Weighted: 5.0
Unweighted GPA: 4.0</p>

<p>Lots of medium awards, like NMSF and NMF, but nothing major (ISEF, etc)
Really good essays and teacher recommendations. </p>

<p>I’m not saying much because I don’t someone who might go to my school to know that this is me.</p>

Great Essay and all my recs were 10/10</p>

<p>Thank you @UninvolvedMom! </p>

<p>Well that’s depressing. Based on your guys’ stats I definitely feel like I should’ve gotten an invite.</p>

<p>You should know by now that stats aren’t everything. Essays, recommendations, and a whole bunch of subjective stuff is included that you just don’t know how the adcoms will interpret.

<p>What’s do you mean by a likely letter?</p>

<p>Likely letters were handed out to the top 1% of the applicant pool to Notre Dame. It pretty much says that you will get admitted. </p>

<p>I’m also first gen</p>

<p>are these only for URM’s?</p>

<p>No, these are not only for URMs, as I am an ORM</p>

<p>Trust me, I understand the college admissions process. I’m fairly certain my recs were great and my essay was the best piece of writing I’ve ever produced. I feel snubbed.</p>
