<p>I GOT IN!!! Alma Mater almighty, I was accepted!!!</p>
<p>I received an email around 2 pm PST. I am still smiling from ear to ear!!!</p>
<p>I’ll post stats later, but I do want to thank current GSers HelloJan, (by far the most helpful person on here, not to mention patient having to put up with idiots like myself. Dude, I owe you lunch, a drink, and an in-person apology. I would love to take you up on that tour.), MusaeumClausum, BoolaBoola, and GoesToWashington.</p>
<p>Thank you Random, Invict, Johnny, Baxter, Philly, Brohli, Juniper, and most of all Liz for all of the support and funny, extremely random posts. I hope you all decide to matriculate there in the Fall. </p>
<p>For those still waiting, It ain’t over 'til it’s over! I can’t wait to see your happy posts!</p>
<p>Thanks again everyone!</p>
<p>Congratulations JamesinGlendale!</p>
<p>HAHAHA NICE!!! I was actually worried for you,LOL. Congratz!!!</p>
<p>AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
THATS WHATS UP!!!</p>
<p>jamesinglendale!!! you kept your head up and look where it got you! way to goooooo!</p>
<p>take your woman out to dinner tonight to celebrate!!!</p>
<p>PS Berkeley’s admission decisions are posted!</p>
<p>James! That’s fantastic news! See, people?!? Decisions are STILL coming out.</p>
<p>You seem like a fun bunch of admits, the whole lot. Would love to have drink with all of you when you make it out here for the Fall.</p>
<p>Welcome to the family, playboy.</p>
<p>James, no need for an apology and all that. If you’re a Columbian, and you say that I helped with that in any way, I couldn’t be happier. </p>
<p>This one’s for you, buddy!</p>

<p>Hey HelloJan, I listen to that song at least once a Day, HAHah, that song actually gives me energy to study harder. Hopefully at the end of the month I can actually “Roar” with you guys :D</p>
<p>Congrats to Random and JamesinGlendale and everyone else that got accepted!!!</p>
<p>When is everyone going to their APS?</p>
<p>Hey guys, I just registered. I’ve been lurking here for a while though.</p>
<p>I’ll be seeing ya’ll in the fall, I just received my package in the mail today!</p>
<p>Wow congrats! Talk about fashionably late.</p>
<p>I wonder how many of us will still be on this forum when fall comes around. It seems that the ones who are accepted tend to just disappear.</p>
<p>Only 159 days until classes start!!</p>
<p>@Random - Hopefully everyone migrates to storybook soon</p>
<p>Yeah, I got everything in on the deadline date, then had to take the GSAE, then had to go in for an interview last week. I don’t know what took so long but at least it’s over with.</p>
<p>Question for those of you who’ve gone through the financial aid meeting, does having savings affect your award at all?</p>
<p>@ Patleeman, as a general rule of thumb, If they dont ask about it, then I wouldnt mention it.</p>
<p>Thanks for the tip,</p>
<p>Do they check 1040s though? I had to list it on my FASFA.</p>
<p>I appreciate the help Random!</p>
<p>They won’t ask for 1040s but the FAFSA, as you’ve reported the details that comprise it, is a key component for putting together your financial aid package.</p>
<p>Since this thread has already gone to hell and back I just like to say that I found a great victory song for those that were accepted, lol.</p>

<p>I got in. Thank you! Sorry for the lack of emotions, but I’m still stoned from ecstasy (figuratively).</p>
<p>sooo happy to see more acceptances rolling in. Congrats to James, Jupiter, Patleemean & Random!!!</p>
<p>I’ll be attending the first APS in May… will I see anyone there? Still waiting on my storybook invite…</p>
<p>I emailed regarding storybook and was sent an invite within minutes.</p>
