<p>Waitlisted in Los Angeles, CA.</p>
<p>:/</p>
<p>Ugh. The most disappointing rejection i've had and will have. :/</p>
<p>Anyone know the waitlist stats?</p>
<p>Nothing official, just says that "in each of hte last five years we were able to admit a number of students from our alternate list. Swarthmore does not rank its alternate list, but if the Admissions Committee is able to add to our class, we wil be selecting from among only those students who have requested further consideration.</p>
<p>I'll say that considering how wonderful their Financial Aid packages tend to be, not as many people will be turning down Swarthmore this year as in previous years. But who knows, really.</p>
<p>I'm in Los Angeles too... haven't gotten anything yet</p>
<p>but I don't really have my hopes up ): got rejected from Williams yesterday.</p>
<p>...the acceptance envelope said "the fat one," which I thought was sort of weird because they probably don't put the words "the skinny one" on rejection letters. :P</p>
<p>monicaglee--same here.</p>
<p>Just found out in Pittsburgh that I have been waitlisted. Tough.</p>
<p>What about internationals? When are they gonna get decisions?</p>
<p>i am international living in the states ( DC).. and got rejected today</p>
<p>I'm from central NY and I got waitlisted yesterday...and I decided to burn the entire envelope including the postcard I was supposed to send back to them...prolly not the best decision but Sarah Lawrence was my first choice anyway and I got in there, so w/e.</p>
<p>^ Haha. Wow.</p>
<p>The number of applicants to Swarthmore decreased 10% from last year, and applications to 7 of the 8 top LACs declined from last year. Just FYI.</p>
<p>I'm very concerned that I haven't received mine yet..</p>
<p>I'm from Dallas, by the way..</p>
<p>@DeferredVictim:</p>
<p>Same here. But but lets have hope! So far only rejections, wait lists, and ED acceptances have been sent out... *crosses fingers</p>
<p>I hope they send emails to International students out tomorrow. Cant stand the waiting any longer. I want it to be over.</p>
<p>I received my official acceptance packet yesterday and I live in Virginia. I did, however, receive an early write, but perhaps this may be an indicator that letters are slowly appearing throughout the states. Good luck to those still waiting!</p>
<p>got my rejection yesterday, feeling a bit down because swat was really a great school for me, but i will not be able to go. best of luck to everyone who is going or got in!</p>
<p>anyone heard anything from the Midwest? or will that be tomorrow? AHHHHHH</p>
<p>haven't heard a thing yet, coolio. I'm out in Colorado. Still waiting on all the other northeast LACs to which I applied as well. However, I've already heard from Northwestern, Occidental, and Wesleyan (early write).
So I'm not sure when it'll get here. Got my fingers crossed though!</p>
