Bryn Mawr ED II question

ED2 acceptance rate can’t be lower than RD for sure, because if that’s true, no one would bother applying ED2. And schools use another round of ED to protect their yield.

oy vey. i just want to know. maybe since they started on monday, if they work on apps each weekday, we’ll know next week. wishful thinking? can someone ask tomorrow if they have a date set yet?

Hey guys sorry for not replying since I made this! I orginally applied ED1 to Vassar but got rejected. :frowning: I also loved Bryn Mawr so I decided to apply ED2. My stats are ok, 3.7 UW, 3.75 W. My school has no AP’s so that’s why my W is pretty low. I have a 31 on the ACTs and a bunch of extracurriculars! I also sent a portfolio. Here’s hoping everything works out for all of us!

does anyone have this on their home page of bionic?

Pivot Grid (a folder) albeit with nothing in it

@rach131 I have the same thing. I hope that’s a good sign!

was getting the mail today and saw a peek of something with the words Bryn Mawr on it and for a second I got excited. It was this new years resolutions thing. sending stuff not that much before the decisions is kind of cruel.

apparently it was for my mother (an alum of the grad school). about her estate. they want her to leave them money when she dies. lol.

Aw, that’s so random but I’m sorry it got your hopes up!
Good luck, all!

@PlasticNebula‌ any word on the street about what date ed II decisions will be uploaded?

@rach131 I’ve read every single thread in this section (I’m a little obsessive, haha :blush: ) and based on when girls who’ve applied ED2 previously have gotten theirs, we’ll probably get an official decision around the 28th-29th. I recall reading they like to release on Thursdays (although I’m not quite sure if this information is credible or not) so that would make it the 29th. Apparently sometimes financial aid will show up a couple of days before a decision is released, which I would assume indicates that you’re in, so we might get to know a little before that.

No idea how I’m going to make it to the 29th, haha! I’m super anxious. I was relatively confident about my chances beforehand, but after reading through all of the threads in this section I’m really worried. Hopefully they fly through applications this year and we get early answers!

I think I’ve read every Bryn Mawr thread period.

Obsessives unite!

Hello gals,

I am applying to Bryn Mawr under RD but I am very nervous.
My IB score is 27 and Sat score is 1970. I took up many social activities in high school and even started my own clubs. I am a good artist and classical dancer. My common app essay is good but I am a bit worried about the BMC supplement. Are there any Mawrters who would kindly agree to read my essay?

definitely submit some supplemental materials showing your talents!

maybe @PlasticNebula‌ can help?

Thank you very much @rach131 !!!

@rach131‌ So sorry, I don’t know! We are actually still on break right now. I return to the area on Friday, and will attend a hackathon at Penn before returning to campus.

my reporting tools thing went away! nervous that this could be a bad sign…

guys guys guys! i tweeted bryn mawr asking if they knew when the decisions would be uploaded and they DM-ed me this: Late next week is as specific as we know right now! :slight_smile:

@rach131 my reporting tools are gone too. Let’s hope it doesn’t mean anything! Ooh I really hope they release then! It’ll be nice to have this weight off of my shoulders. :slight_smile: thank you for the update!

well, I know someone accepted ED i, and she still has her reporting tools…

been going back in forth about thinking I’ll get in, get deferred (and later rejected), or rejected. I’ve had dreams about acceptance and flat rejection.

uh oh uh oh oh oh no no, got me looking, so crazy my baby, I’m not myself lately I’m foolish, I don’t do this. I’ve been playing myself, baby I don’t care!

seemed appropriate lol…

any music people on here?

@rach131 ooh no, that makes me super nervous! Oh gosh, I really hope we’re just overthinking this! My mom floated the idea that maybe it was a mistake - that they’ve already decided to accept us, but they didn’t mean to have the reporting tools tab pop up yet (a human or computer error), and once they realized the mistake they took them away again, but that they’ll return after we get official acceptances.

Yeah, I know the feeling. I wish I had a good estimate of my chances, but honestly, I have no idea! One moment I’m thinking yeah, Bryn Mawr will look at me holistically and love my essays and accept me! But the next moment I’ll go ohmygoodness girls with way better SATs and GPAs are applying I’m going to be rejected for sure! Even if they don’t accept me, it’ll be nice just to have an answer back soon. Although I’m hoping the universe won’t be mean enough to say no to me twice in the ED rounds!
