<p>Can someone tell me where they think I might fall in the applicant pool?
I applied a week or so before the nov.1 deadline and have not heard yet. I think I fall into middle status along with plenty of others but I’m getting really stressed out reading about all these people getting rejected and postponed. Even though I already got accepted into my safeties (CU boulder and Indiana) Madison is my #1 and I would do anything to go there.
Here are my stats:
Public School in Colorado
ACT 28
GPA 3.78w 3.58uw
8 AP classes taken at school that offers 18 total AP’s and a few Honors classes but no real blow off classes
Very good essays (in my opinion)
3 Letters of rec ( 2 from teachers I had AP classes with and 1 from Counselor who I know well so letters should be good)
EC’s: Played Football 9 and 10th grade with a Varsity letter, Spanish Honor Society Officer and Historian, Local Teen Court Member(what I wrote one of my essay on), Lots of volunteer hours, and other small clubs at school. Various other academic awards ( 2 academic letters) </p>
<p>I realize none of you are probably admission counselors but any feedback (positive or negative) would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks</p>

Will pursue all avenues to get that letter of admission. Wisconsin is first choice.
Counselor was Martinez White</p>
<p>Son just received acceptance. He is very happy- now he will decide between Wisconsin, U of Michigan, and Wash U in St. Louis. He looks best in red and black.</p>
<p>Those of you who have received your decisions already, could you share info on the electronic process? For those of us who check the application status daily (or more), does the decision get posted before the email telling you to check? Or is the email always first indication a decision has been made? Any “tell-tale” signs of an imminent decision (for instance, at MN, the status changes to “application being carefully considered” and then you know a decision out (by mail first, then on-line) within a week. </p>
<p>Thank you, and congrats to all who have been admitted.</p>
<p>My son first got notification via email that a decision had been made. Then he checked his UW account and found out he was admitted. He had not been checking his account so I have no idea what it was saying the whole time. He applied and got his decision in 18 days so it was very quick. Good luck!</p>
