Deferred :( Anything I can do?

<p>I was deferred at ND Early Action. </p>

<p>I really liked this school. :(
Anyway, I have some updates from the beginning of the year including improved grades and a major national award. </p>

<p>Do you think it's too early to email?
What can I do??</p>

<p>Does anybody know how many students (what %) of students get accepted after deferral?</p>

<p>Well, I have no idea. I got deferred at Boston, but I got in both Johns Hopkins and university of Chicago early action . And I decided to go to Johns Hopkins due to full ride. Well, I think you should apply more schools maybe other better school would accept you! You never know. Also, it doesn’t mean no. You still have a chance! But just apply backups</p>

<p>and you are an int. student… Which means you have a hard time to get in…</p>

<p>You should have to apply for two early decisions…</p>

<p>@Leahhhgreyyy, did you say that you hear from UChicago and you are admitted? How can you check your status on UChicago? The facebook page says it will release decision on 18th afternoon.</p>

<p>If you really want ND, then get in touch with your admissions rep right away. Let them know that you are interested. Then, start compiling a list of other notables to add to your file. New awards? Better grades? Do you have a teacher this year that didn’t write your recommendation that might send in a supportive rec for you? Don’t give up! A LOT of kids get in off deferral from EA. You just have to wait, but you can add more and do it now! Best of luck!</p>
