<p>I didn’t get an email either, which I thought was really weird, and I live in OH.

<p>While it’s admittedly nice to get some external validation, I don’t think Case and I like each other enough for a four-year commitment. Best of luck to everyone and their choices.</p>

Reflection
Strengths: Extensive Research Experience and Research Resume, Vast musical experience, Stellar essay’s and recommendations
Weaknesses: Unweighted GPA-9th and 10th grade killed my gpa. Since then I have taken the most rigorous courses available to me and done very well. My weighted gpa for 11th grade is a 4.0 and my weighted average for senior year thus far is over a 4.0. I think the upward trend was a strength in my application.
Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Refer to strengths
Where else were you accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Fordham (Accepted), Tulane (Accepted), Stonybrook (Accepted), Johns Hopkins (Rejected). Still waiting on more.</p>
<p>Received $28,500 a year for University Scholarship</p>
<p>Accepted with a University Scholarship of $30,500/year. I realize these decisions definitely take demonstrated interest into account, but no one can say with certainty that they didn’t get in because of yield protection. My stats (2340, top 3%) aren’t perfect, but they’re above Case’s averages, and I didn’t show very much interest besides talking to an admissions rep. at one college fair.</p>
