anyone get accepted at exeter whos not going?

<p>If you got accepted, CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You must be incredibly awesome. Of course, if you get in, I think you should go, but if anyone got into another school that they plan on going to instead, could you say here? I'm on the waitlist, as are a bunch of other CCers, and I'm just trying to gauge if anyone isn't going, and thus opening spots? Thanks!!</p>

<p>First, congrats on getting on the waitlist :slight_smile: I hope you do get in! I did get in, and will hopefully be going if my FA is enough. However, let me remind you of one thing:</p>

<p>They accept MORE students than they have spots. This is because their yield is not 100%…this means that if their yield is exactly or more than what they expected, they will not accept anybody off the waitlist. For example, if they expect 82% of accepted students to enroll and 85% decide to go. This is why Deerfield over enrolled last year, because their yield was higher than expected.</p>

<p>So, their yield would have to be LESS than what they predicted in order to accept students off the waitlist. Going with the above example, this would be where only 80% of students accepted decide to enroll.</p>

<p>I am not trying to be negative, please don’t think that. But this is something I realized last night and was not sure if everybody else realized, too :/</p>

<p>if i get accepted anywhere im going to whoever accepts me first cuz i aint going to risk anything</p>

<p>I know this thread is a little old… but I haven’t been on CC in a while and thus didn’t get a chance to see it.</p>

<p>The point is… I GOT INTO EXETER AND I’M NOT GOING!!!</p>

<p>Hotchkiss 2014 is where I belong. :wink: Exeter just wasn’t right for me. </p>

<p>Hope this makes you feel a little better! GOOD LUCK!!! :)</p>

<p>lucky, could you say what made you choose Hotchkiss over Exeter? I am considering applying to both schools next year.</p>

<p>Hi 2010 class, I have created a thread to share your Revisit Experiences and Decisions 2010. [thread=894983]Revisit Experiences - Decisions 2010[/thread]</p>

<p>I’m waitlisted too. At Exeter. With FA. There go my chances of getting off haha…</p>

<p>wickedcrazy, what about St. Pauls? Would you rather be a Paulie or an Exonian? Haha just kidding, I know how much you love PEA.</p>

<p>i got in but i am going to SPS</p>

<p>I’m glad you guys are not going… there are plenty of schools just as great out there, if not better in many other areas. good for waitlist people if you have another school you love more!!</p>

<p>ahhhh I love you luckyduckyme! What grade are you going into?</p>

<p>Wickedcrazy – Ninth. And due to KCcansps15’s post… I assume you got into Saint Paul’s? Nice! I was rejected. :frowning: </p>

<p>But I guess its ok, cause I’m not really sure SPS would have been the right fit for me anyway…</p>

<p>Have an AWESOME time at Hotchkiss. Like 10 people at my school got waitlisted there, so it was soooooo competitive! Congratulations! And texaschica, thats amazing that you got into both. </p>

<p>I just got back from SPS revisit and it was AWESOME! I feel much better. SPS is amazing. If I get off the waitlist, that’s wonderful, but if I don’t, I’ll be totally happy with SPS.</p>

<p>I know this thread is getting kinda old, but wickedcrazy, I was also accepted at Exeter and won’t be attending!</p>

<p>I’m not going!</p>

<p>lindha, Where are you going?</p>

<p>TRYING TO choose between Groton and DA. IDK…I loved both schools.</p>

<p>Good luck with your decision, it is tough to choose between great schools.</p>

<p>I was accepted to Exeter as well, but during my Revisit Experience, it didn’t exactly knock my socks off. I decided to attend Peddie, a lesser-known (but still prestigious) school.</p>

<p>5SchoolApplicant, What other schools did you turn down?</p>
