*Caltech c/o 2018 Applicants*

<p>Almost definitely next week. EA decisions showed up on my portal right on the dot at 3pm EST. Got nothing.</p>

<p>No… Don’t… Please… What. Nothing yet.</p>

<p>Perhaps EA had fewer applicants that’s why?</p>

<p>They had previously announced the date and time for the EA round, which is why they felt pressured to release the decisions at the exact time. Nobody announced anything for the RD round, so we’re basically at their mercy</p>

<p>Maybe they’ll announce at 3?</p>

<p>Anybody got anything?</p>

<p>Based on the fact that someone heard from a coach AT Caltech that decisions will be released next week, I’d say it’s relatively alright to assume that that’s probably correct. But hey, what do I know.</p>

<p>Yes, sounds like next week to me. Which is for the greater good since it’s after my finals (trimester system), but I can’t deny the possibility of it coming sometime later today, which makes me still nervous.</p>

<p>Noooooooo I want to get rejected from Caltech before I hear from MIT :’’’’’’’’’’’’’(</p>

<p>Wow. Everyone’s “positive” attitude is really lifting the anxiety off my shoulders. I’m going to get ready as well to embrace a rejection. :D</p>

<p>Can’t wait another week for decisions…</p>

<p>After getting rejected from Stanford, I figured not get my hopes high for anything, especially not top tier colleges. Expect a rejection, you’ll be slightly bummed if it happens. Expect getting accepted, you’ll be quite upset if (or when) you get rejected. Besides it’s Caltech, I’m sure I’m not the most qualified applicant. If I was I definitely wouldn’t be on this forum, probably be discovering a cure for cancer or recreating the laws of physics. A rejection is more or less OK.</p>

<p>…ugh</p>

<p>So they’re definitely not being released today eh? It’s 2.30 AM over here in India!</p>

<p>@confusedhexagon I wouldn’t call it a day until it’s 3PM in Pasadena, but there’s no guarantee that they’ll come out today. </p>

<p>I’d go to bed if I were you… Saves you both the anxious two-hour-long wait and, if they’re not released at all today, the frustration of having waited for nothing.</p>

<p>@jerryaeroastro: Haha, you’re right; I should catch some sleep now. I’m not particularly anxious since the outcome is inevitable, but I want it over with asap. Everyone still waiting: best of luck! :)</p>

<p>Accepted!</p>

<p>Still nothing for me. This is for Caltech Regular Decision- are you sure you’re posting in the right thread? :-)</p>

<p>DId you get an email or did you just check the portal?</p>
