<p>I want to rebound from my Stanford rejection…</p>
<p>CMU, give me my non-safety acceptance please!</p>
<p>I want to rebound from my Stanford rejection…</p>
<p>CMU, give me my non-safety acceptance please!</p>
<p>Are all letters in business-sized envelopes or are acceptances in large envelopes with materials for freshmen?</p>
<p>I don’t know if this has changed, but 3 or 4 years ago they sent a big envelope with the tartan pattern on it and it said something along the lines of “This is the BIG envelope.” Basically, its pretty obvious if you’ve been accepted.</p>
<p>Every school my Son applied to is reporting record number of applications received and fewer acceptance % than in past years.</p>
<p>He is in the 50 percentile for CMU, but I wonder if that will be enough. Guess we’ll know on Sunday morning. </p>
<p>Otherwise he’s off to Georgia Tech for ECE.</p>
<p>Best of luck to everyone! Frankly, as a parent, I will just be glad when it’s all over…</p>

<p>Unfortunately for us 1992’ers, there are more of us than other year so far.</p>
<p>I’m in the same boat as you, AvgAsian, just got rejected from Stanford, and itching to hear from CMU.</p>
<p>i dont think there are MORE of us, i just think all of us are applying to MORE schools, therefore applications increase while schools accept the same number of applicants so admission % decreases</p>
<p>
Well, my dad said he read there were alot more babies in '92, plus the fact that alot more of us are college bound. But I could be wrong.
I got rejected from Stanford too, but I wasn’t expecting to get in (No ECs…)</p>
<p>Stanford reject here as well!
just dying to get an acceptance from CMU</p>
<p>Well I guess most people get rejected from Stanford given the rate of 93% ;)</p>
<p>But yes - practically every college I’ve applied to seems to state that the admission rate has gone down, with the greater number of applications.</p>
<p>Son rejected from MIT, CalTech and Harvey Mudd. Not surprising, most are. Accepted U of Washington (local school), G Tech and oh how I hope CMU so he can be 3/6…</p>
<p>I got into Berkeley, and UCLA…but waitlisted at WuSTL and NU. And today rejected Stanford. I’m beginning to lose hope :(.</p>
<p>I’m only accepted at my local state school, U of Washington, rejected MIT and Stanford. I have 5 schools left to bail me out, and CMU is the “easiest” out of all of them. Shoulda picked more match schools >.<</p>
<p>I am glad that I did not apply to Stanford so I wasn’t massacred. Dying for CMU letter!!</p>
<p>Fellow Stanford Rejectee here to answer the call! =]</p>
<p>I was also a little bummed that there was nothing in the mail today from CMU =(</p>
<p>Four rejections in two days. Hopefully CMU can brighten my weekend :/</p>
<p>Stanford reject EA here too… wasn’t terribly heart broken CMU was above Stan anywho. And so so so (bad grammar… but SO) ready to know.</p>
<p>Another Stanford reject here. I was totally expecting it so it wasn’t bad. Wasn’t my top choice anyway. Hopefully I get my first non-safety acceptance tomorrow with CMU. So far I’m in at RPI, Northeastern, and Boston U. Rejected at MIT, UChicago, Stanford. Still waiting on Columbia, Brown, Yale, Princeton, Cornell, UPenn, Hopkins, Tufts.</p>
<p>Stanford slaughter! Whoo.</p>
<p>Now just hoping for this…got into UChicago, Cal, and UCLA.</p>
<p>I live all the way in India, and cmu is my number one choice. this is complete torture.</p>
