Barnard College Class of 2016 ED Thread

<p>Hey Everyone
I’m super nervous. Its happening this week. It determines my life.
This quote actually makes sense for me:
I hope it helps you out too!
You are all exceptional - not because of grades and all, but because you work super hard and are extremely motivated to make a difference in the world.
Its what matters inside first :slight_smile:
Even though some other people may feel differently hahaha:)</p>

<p>“It is our attitude at the beginning of a difficult task which, more than anything else, will affect It’s successful outcome.”
-William James </p>

<p>So @PeaceLoveTheatre:
Where are you from? Like what state? We have so much in common. I hope we end up at the same school because you are literally just like me. No joke.
I applied early action to University of San Diego and University of
San Francisco also.I want to also apply to Bard College and USC!</p>

<p>Good luck everyone. Think positive! It will all work out. Its a reach school for me and I realize that but I really wanted to apply and still attend. I mean its my first choice. Its so nerve wrecking. Ok I’m going to stop contradicting myself and go work on some AP bio now hahaha bye <3</p>

<p>oh geez guys… i feel so special. </p>

<p>I MEAN IM LIKE A CELEBRITY NOW. WHO NEEDS BARNARD WHEN YOU CAN GET FAME LIKE THIS?? </p>

<p>…lol anyhow. let me reiterate that i hope NO ONE EVER connects this CC username to my facebook account. too much attention…</p>

<p>and on another note, about obnoxious people on fb about college acceptances:</p>

<p>Bronx Science is prestigious NYC public school. This is a post from the student blog that I think might be very relevant to this discussion: </p>

<p>are any of you early decision-ers having trouble with your applications trackers? like things aren’t posted there that have definitely been sent?
anyone??</p>

<p>@neveragain12: no its probably just not updated for you.
I think you can call admissions but it should no problem!!</p>

<p>@noloserhere
Nice post. I liked your tumblr also :slight_smile:
I hope we both get into Barnard. That’d be pretty amazing!!</p>

<p>thanks! i’m just terrified since it’s so close to the deadline. i hope i’m not the only one having this problem!</p>

<p>@newyorkmydreams… the first link (which had a screenshot of my post) IS NOT my tumblr… it just happens to have a screenshot of my CC post on it!! (but whoevers tumblr it is, i completely stalked it and do very much like it!)</p>

<p>Guys, what does it mean if you they had never asked you for your first-quarter grades AND you had never sent them in?</p>

<p>@neveragain12
LOL yeah I know what you mean. Its so easy for me to say that, when I think about it I’m so freaked out myself. I keep checking the mail like every second of the day thinking some magic will work for me. Its FATE! I will see what happens. But omg, if it works out I’d be so happy and relieved. Anyways, life doesn’t always go the way we want it so I’m happy either way! AHHHH!</p>

<p>@noloserhere:
AHHAHAHHHH I feel pretty dumb now. Lmao.</p>

<p>anybody else applying ED having trouble with their trackers?</p>

<p>mine still has things listed as missing even though they’ve been sent and common app says they’ve been downloaded</p>

<p>Did any of you post on the Barnard Admissions page on Facebook"?</p>

WOW this sounds amazing, I hope we can experience it one day!!</p>

<p>@neveragain12
You’ve asked this question FIVE times in ONE thread page. We are not incompetent people. I can read something ONCE, as can pretty much everyone else. We’re not ignoring this question because we hate you; we’re ignoring it bc some of us don’t have an answer. And when someone does, they will most surely ANSWER IT. BE FREAKING PATIENT. Goshdarn it!</p>

<p>Okay I realize how mean this post sounds. But I feel like it was very immature and deserves some enlightenment. </p>

<p>@newyorkmydreams. I think youd need to have a REALLY clean facebook profile page in order to do that. I was looking through the prospies who have posted on there… and I think one of them is also a CC poster on this thread with the username Maeve-something… and I just seriously SHOOK MY HEAD when I saw her profile. Her profile picture was of her standing in front of Barnard with the Barnard flag over her head.</p>

<p>And under work experience, apparently she is employed by “B-tching & Moaning” </p>

<p>Okay now thats what you call ridiculously poor judgment. Adcoms DO check the pages of the people who post as prospies on that page. Clean up your record before you post! Bejeezus.</p>

<p>so are they out today for sure? :)</p>

<p>@noloserhere: Hahahah thats funny. I saw that too.
I was stalking the page so I was wondering.
My facebook page is clean but I deleted it (at least for now!)</p>

<p>And @neveragain12 is just nervous like us. Its not a big deal. She just wants an answer. If we were in the same situation, I’m pretty sure we would post like that too.
So no worries neveragain12 =)</p>

<p>i feel like such a bad person</p>

<p>…sniffle
:’[</p>

<p>when I sent an email to the admissions office, they said decisions will be sent out anytime this week, so I’m not sure if its necessarily today.</p>

<p>Haha…I stalked the barnard admission fb page too…most of the girls look like their pages are very clean.</p>

<p>Makes me wonder…is that how everyone is at barnard? I mean, I am no partier, but I’m a normal high schooler who parties a few times a month…hope I’m not in the minority!</p>

<p>same omg and I noticed 2 of them had the barnard logo in their profile picture. haha one at the entrance and one at teh diana center. No I have a friend who goes there, there is a very good social scene! and its new york, ur going to make friends from across at columbia during classes and bump into college kids a lot as well (i.e NYU.)</p>

<p>Ok good! I feel really strongly about having a balance between work and fun.</p>

<p>Totally. Agreed =)
OMG I cannot stop checking this forum as well as Barnard Admission’s FB page to see when they will start sending out mails.
Is the person who posted SURE it gets sent out tonight (Tuesday - 13th).</p>
