<p>Yeah, they do. But some people that didn't survive the first cut already got deferal/rejection letters (so I heard). So hey! We survived the first cut :P</p>
<p>I am...freaking out. I doubt I'll be able to sleep tonight. I keep running through every part of my application in my mind. "What did I write for my activities?? Why did I pick that as my essay topic?? Did I put the right address?" AHHH!</p>
<p>May admissions officers have mercy on our souls...</p>
<p>@kbvalencia...if thats true, then we have got good chances of acceptance...</p>
<p>ANyone already got his/her rejection/defferal/acceptance????</p>
<p>at most, 20 hours left for the email to arrive my inbox</p>
<p>GUys wouldnt it be fun if this time Kenyon ppl send a single paged letter for ppl who have bn accepted while thick envelope with a Kenyon Tshirt and so for those who have been rejected??</p>
<p>@ Kbvalencia, where did you read/hear that some applicants have already received their decision? Are you talking about international applicants?</p>
<p>Hmm that would be neat if some rejections/deferrals had already gone out... but where did you hear that? </p>
<p>Ahh yeah, scrutinizing my unalterable application has been the worst part of waiting. Although I enjoyed the essay topics, I don't think I can manage to write more essays for six other schools when/if I don't get in. I've worked on other applications a bit, but mostly I've procrastinated...</p>
<p>Guys as the final hour will arrive soon, I want myself to be evalutated by others so that I can have a realistic approach to my wateva letter.</p>
<p>My SAT I; 660 CR, 740 Math, 690 Writing
SAT II:800 MAth II, 800 Physics, 790 CHem
Grades: 4 A and 1 b in A level subjects
Rank: top 5%
course rigor: most rigorous availbale in my high school
reccomendations: very strong
ECs, Voluntary work, JOb experience: well balanced
Essays: I had worked on those essays for 2 months..If not among the best, they should be at least well above average.
+my high school has an excellent reputation at Kenyon..so they said they are really looking forward to apllicants frm my high school this year..and I m the only one this time</p>
<p>Looking back at my stats, what do think of the email that I am gonna recieve???
ALL kinds of opinions are welcomed.</p>
<p>I think you have a great chance, but then again my opinion isn't the one that matters. If you have great essays then I'd say that's your true leg up.</p>
<p>I personally feel 90% of the kids who apply to Kenyon are qualified enough to attend and be successful--it just comes down to what the committee needs to make for a well-rounded, interesting class.</p>
<p>My mom's been doing a lot of reading and researching since I decided to go ED for Kenyon. And she read that last year, people that didn't make it past the first readers got sent to the assistant dean of admissions and they decided whether to send them a flat-out rejection or defer them til RD. </p>
<p>Ok. It's 7 am here. I wonder what time they'll send emails....</p>
<p>Ahh it's officially the 15th. The day I've been fearing for months. </p>
<p>Not that I'll hear anything today... but you know.</p>
<p>Has anyone heard yet?</p>
<p>"We are finishing up decisions. You will hear electronically by Wednesday."</p>
<p>That's what I got back this morning when I asked about when emails would go out. I read earlier that the admissions process what slower than usual this year, so maybe everything's just caught in a loop :S</p>
<p>It took me a lot of patience to wait till today...c'mon now wait for another 2 days!!!!!...not fair
ny1 got his/her decision by chance???</p>
<p>i got deferred...</p>
<p>I got my decision about an hour ago. I got in. :)</p>
<p>Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>I got in too!!! AHH funny story about my letter though:</p>
<p>So I called home right before track practice today to see if I had gotten anything from my early action safety school. On the phone my brother was like "uhh, uhhh, no, but you got something from Kenyon?" At that point I screamed and hung up because I was afraid of him saying anything about it (small, large, big thumbs up, etc.). On our run, we went STRAIGHT to my house, and I stood at the top of the street with my eyes shut and ears covered while everyone else raided my mailbox and opened the letter. It wasn't until I had the "Welcome" packet shoved in my face that I saw! Theeen we proceeded to all sit in my living room and decorate the Christmas tree. Haha, so much for a long run! </p>
<p>AHHHH so excited! and I even got a little bit of money, good deal. Now the scholarship applications begin!</p>
