<p>For all the EA applicants who got deferred, don’t worry. So many people apply EA just to have some acceptances under their belt before their top choice letters start rolling in. The pool is competitive and your answers today are not at all indicative of the answer you will get in April. This is an exciting time, so if you are deferred, show your college why you belong at that school. Write extra letters, visit the campus, use the extended time to reflect on why you want to go there so badly. That is something none of the RD applicants cannot do, so in a way it will give you a competitive edge the second time around.</p>
<p>Got accepted to UMN Twin Cities, Knox, Cornell College, Drake, Luther.
All those were safety schools though. I’m submitting my application for my top choice (Macalester) next week. Congrats to everyone who were accepted!</p>
<p>tttony: Great going! Now that you’re in with the safeties maybe you can try something adventurous! Best of luck for the highly-rated Mac, though!</p>
<p>I got into UT Austin, but that was my safety. Gah, this whole college admissions process is such a pain… I basically stopped caring after November (which is baad news!). I’m pretty much regretting that mentality and I’m pretty nervous as I’m waiting for letters to roll in (won’t be till almost the summer though). Hope I got into some of my choices! Which were, btw… NYU, UCLA, UC Berkley, Northwestern, Pomona, Rice, and a few others via QuestBridge.</p>
