@sciencenerd123 :frowning:

883

Did anyone get into PLME?

884

“The majority of our Early Decision applicants are neither accepted nor rejected, but deferred.”

“You should know that during the past few years the admission rate for students deferred Early Decision has been consistent with that for Regular Decision applicants.”

Alright, Brown.

885

deferred. screw brown.

886

@DaveNBuster I can’t tell if they’re trying to ease the pain or trying to stop us from getting our hopes up for RD.

887

@jrdsnw Yep. I don’t know anymore. This sucks.

888

listen to music

889

Deferred as well. Oh well.

890

@astrobiodreams @sciencenerd123 Yooo what?? Honestly, both your messages, extracurriculars, and credentials really shook me to the core. I thought if anyone would get in, it would be you two.

891

@SearchForGenius thank you. I think my application was pretty rushed, and I did expect a deferral from the very beginning. It still really stings.

892

@SearchForGenius Thank you so much :(. I’ve been in tears for the past hour and a half. I am so heartbroken. The worst part is having to do all of my regular apps with this on my shoulders and having to go to school tomorrow and tell my teachers/classmates/counselor who were so sure that I would get in that I was deferred. I don’t think I’ve ever been this upset in my life. And @astrobiodreams I was convinced that you would get in you’re much more qualified than I am.

893

Deferred. I’m so done

894

@sciencenerd123 Thank you. The support from all of you here really means a lot to me. I also thought that you would get in. Hopefully we still will RD, but that doesn’t change the pain of this. You seem to be a really wonderful person and I know you will end up in the place where you need to be. <3

895

time to listen to some kanye and move on

896

I finally stopped crying so that’s progress. I’m going to send them a lit deferral letter.

EDIT: nvm crying again ha

897

@sciencenerd123 Hey there! Just got deferred as well and wanted to let you know that everything happens for a reason so just keep your head up and enjoy the rest of your senior year! Although I don’t know you personally I bet you are awesome and hope you and ur family have a happy holiday season :slight_smile:

898

I’m completely reinvigorated. Even if it doesn’t mean much it is nice to think an Ivy league school thought we were qualified enough to take a second look at!

899

Next comes Michigan EA on Christmas eve

To everyone who got deferred (including me!) or rejected: this is a another opportunity to take a good look at other great schools! Who knows, maybe in March you’ll have a ton of options to choose from, and be glad.
And congratulations to those who did get accepted :slight_smile:
