<p>Nope. I got in through the TAG (Transfer Admission Guarantee) program offered to California community college students hoping to transfer, so I knew I was in several months before acceptance/rejection notices were sent out in April (with TAG, you hear about your decision as early as November of the prior year).</p>
<p>I desperately wanted to know back in April when I received FOUR waitlist offers. I got off of Emory’s waitlist, but not Boston College’s- which really surprised me, especially since my statistics were well above the average for BC and my EC was around average.</p>
<p>Either way, I’m very happy with the college I’m going to, especially after orientation, but I definitely would have liked to know why I didn’t end up getting accepted at BC.</p>
<p>I would have loved to hear what the admissions readers said about my application or what they said during the final decision rounds where applicants are voted on. I love admissions, and want to be a admissions officer so badly! </p>
<p>I always feel for UChicago I was barely accepted and that my reader whom I know now probably liked me for some reason and fought hard for me to get accepted. I felt I had a better chance at Vassar and Wesleyan, but I sent a weird pic of myself to Vassar and wish I saw their reaction. I was rejected at Yale, Brown and Swarthmore. The first two not surprised, but I loved Swarthmore and wonder if I at least got a few votes for being accepted or waitlisted. My waitlists were Amherst (not surprised, but feel accomplished for being waitlisted, wonder why they liked me enough to be waitlisted), Bowdoin (not a super good fit, but still honored with waitlist, surprised not outright rejected), Pomona (not a good fit, didn’t visit or interview though I’m from CA and my sister attends, so I feel like I was waitlisted due to my sister instead of outright rejected), and Reed (slightly shocked I was not accepted, feel like I was probably so close to being admitted, adccoms probably thought my graded essay was weak though, but still would have loved to hear what they would have said about me).</p>
<p>If a rejection, never never never never. I would not want any more reason to think about a college that I can’t attend anyways.</p>
<p>Still no if it’s an acceptance.</p>
<p>wow people are kinda vicious about this aren’t they?
I wonder sometimes too yeah, not necessarily wistfully but just out of curiosity. luckily only applied to one school and got into it, but I wonder how close/not close I was</p>
<p>Not really. I got into my first choice i don’t really care how far away i was from being rejected. Even if I was rejected, I would’ve just accepted the loss and moved on.</p>
<p>Yes because I thought for my dream school I had a 50/50 shot of getting in; and that was if I was lucky. I got accepted and was offered a huge financial aid package and invited into the honors program… which made me wonder if I should have applied to more competitive schools because I thought that school was really really hard to get into. Still wondering what fooled the admissions people into thinking I was actually smart, lol.</p>
<p>My college decisions were just all over the place. I got flat-out rejected from a school that I thought I would for sure get accepted or at least waitlisted at. I got waitlisted at two schools I thought would immediately rejected and accepted to a school where I didn’t even finish the application… Just really confusing. Sometimes I really wish I could get more feedback as to what goes on through their heads.</p>
<p>I actually haven’t wondered. The one school I was rejected at, I was expecting entirely, and I had already been accepted to my dream school. I was surprised that I was admitted at another school, but my interest in it kind of faded by the time admissions came around.</p>
