Dartmouth Early Decision Class of 2021

ah that’s so inspiring! aw I cannot wait to get one @Erikj28

@tokper7 don’t worry i’ve been freaking out for like 2 weeks now

@Erikj28 that’s really cool, where are you from?

@LikeAPanther Washington State, I live in a tiny city just across the border from Portland, Oregon. I was just there early today actually getting fancy ass Portland ice cream because you gotta remember to treat yourself sometimes haha

Where is everyone from? I’m from southern California.

@tokper7 I’m from norcal.

@Erikj28 hahah that’s really funny actually. I’m from Believeland (Cleveland) Ohio

SoCal

Have you SoCal kids even seen snow? :wink:

@LikeAPanther Yeah like i probably cross state lines 4 or 5 times a week. Oregon has no sales tax and just so much better restaurants

You’re honestly making me feel so much better! I was sure Dartmouth was a great place academically but I was scared it was filled with pretentious, privleged kids! Hearing you talk about tattoos puts me at ease for some reason lol

Nashville, Tennessee!

@Erikj28 only on vacations lol. Though it did snow once on this one hill in Aliso Viejo about a year ago, but it was pretty lame lol

@ebethqnguyen glad I’m able to help haha. I see no point in trying to come across as all “neat and tidy” (as my mother says) if that isn’t who you actually are. We are all going to go off to college where we will know very few people, so it’s the perfect opportunity to be your authentic, true self. That way, any friendship that you make in college will be just as genuine as you are. I have a strong feeling that the kids at Dartmouth who are pretentious are only that way because they think that’s what the “ideal dartmouth student” probably is. TL;DR Be your own self B-)

Ahhhhh it’s so scary there are so many amazing applicants!!! Getting ready for a rejection letter

@Erikj28 Hey I’m from WA too! Kent/Renton area.

@GiddyHiddy I was NHS pres last year but I didn’t feel like I was able to connect with the club or really do much besides run meetings… So this year I’m FBLA pres and academic decathlon captain, I enjoy it so much more especially since I can greet every member by name while in NHS I knew maybe 30% of the club personally.

I live in Maryland but born in Kenya and raised in England. (Moved a lot as a kid)

@collegegal17 Same here. One minute I think that I’m just as competitive as an applicant and the next I feel like a rejection is coming

I’m from a small town in Michigan. My graduating class in less than 100! I’m the only one in my county applying to Dartmouth I think. There were only five other candidates from west Michigan invited for interviews, so my guess is there’s not very many applicants around here

Just about another day guys!!! I think i can survive the wait haha
