<p>So I got rejected from Yale, Brown and Princeton today and, oddly, I am feeling no sense of disappointment. I thought I'd be much more upset. I feel like this isn't normal...
I think it's just like: I GOT into the schools I applied to where your actual qualifications determine whether you get in. With the ivys, It's like a lottery- and I've never been a person who gets upset when I roll a low number on a dice.</p>
<p>I am very disappointed…
Not because I was expecting to get it but because of their uniformity of rejection…</p>
<p>My last hope is Washington university in st.louis
I am on their waiting list…</p>
<p>No offense, but everyone is on WUSTL’s waiting list. That is not a very likely outcome</p>
<p>I got rejected from Brown. Not disappointed, though, mostly because I was expecting it (Brown was my high reach) and thus hadn’t invested much in the college. I mean, if I had (by some miracle) been accepted, I would’ve been more interested in the prestige of it all rather than the actual education I might receive.</p>
<p>I got rejected from HY, waitlist Duke, and MIT, (MIT was the stab in the heart when I saw the news), I got in some others great school (Caltech, Cornell, UChicago, Emory etc). However, my family won’t support me on pursuing undergrad education in private school because of financial aid issues. Even with financial aid, the COA is still slightly greater than UGA. So I guess I will have to stay in GA, disappointed, depressed, seemed like all my hardwork in high school was in vain. I can’t seem to find the motivation to do anything anymore.</p>
