<p>@aaziya
Looks like I am not accepted :( I am from Chennai. Where are you from?</p>
<p>@ Neethu:Hey!...tis ok...I'm sure you applied to bunch of other places too. I'm not even planning on attending. Just waiting for the Ivy decisions!</p>
<p>I'm from Delhi:)</p>
<p>i didn't get any decisions from Brandeis =( I live in nyc n my bestie got her decision on monday. Right now im freakin out a bit!</p>
<p>Accepted in MN! </p>
<p>Anyone else get the Presidential or Trustee Scholarship(s)?</p>
<p>Are international students notified via e-mail? Have any international RD applicants been accepted already?</p>
<p>WindSongLibra , so far I have not got any email from them. But I do know some asian international students already got their acceptences via Fedex.</p>
<p>Oh gosh, really? Now I'm nervous. And excited :) Noone's ever at home during the day to accept anything couriered. Aargh. Do you know around when they got their letters?</p>
<p>Accepted!
I got my letter two days ago. Didn't bother to share here until now. =P
It's not my first choice, but I would seriously consider it if I didn't get into my other schools (I don't hear back from my #1 choice until March 31st T_T).
I got the "Premier Trustee Scholarship", so Brandeis is looking really appealing right now...</p>
<p>I don't know if you'll read this, hoppipolla, but is your user name in any way related to the Sigur Ros song??? If so, you are officially deemed awesome by me. ;P</p>
<p>Yes! I got in! I'm not an international, but I do live in a South Asian country... an e-mail came in, with all the congratulations, that says that the rest of the stuff is in the mail.</p>
<p>????</p>
<p>I just got an e-mail about the March edition of 'Deis Life... it said "congratulations on your acceptance!" and proceeded to talk about the newsletter.</p>
<p>I did not receive anything in the mail. I live in New Jersey. Am I accepted? Anyone else not get a decision?</p>
<p>@findis: I am 99.9% sure you are in. You should have 2 emails. 1 is the actual acceptance letter and the other is the invitation to view their newsletter (that's what I got, anyway). </p>
<p>Congrats!</p>
<p>congrats to every one that got accepted I recently got my decision and I have been waitlisted</p>
<p>l'etranger, this is so late in getting back to you - but yes! that is the inspiration for my username haha =) i love the song, it makes me want to run through fields and/or stand on top of a mountain...etc. lol</p>
<p>Findis, if you're invited to view the newsletter that has a story about an acheivement by the Mock Trial club, and another about honoring the creator of "The Simpsons", among other articles, then yes, you're in. That newsletter is only sent out for admitted students to view. Congrats!</p>
<p>Is there no way we can get our decisions online?</p>
<p>i was wait-listed...unfortunately. i really like brandeis, i hope i get in later. does anyone know when wait-list decisions come out?</p>

[/ul]Reflection</p>
<p>Strengths: typical hard-working, well-rounded kid</p>
<p>What you tried to focus on in your application - any hooks you tried to make for yourself: Challenge of coming from a pre-engineering academy strong in math and science, yet personally having great interest in the social sciences</p>
<p>Weaknesses: not an athlete, not a musician, would not be recruited for any such niches</p>
<p>Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Just a strong overall app</p>
