How will you react to your decision?

<p>Agh! I hope the increase in applicants and weather delay don’t prevent a decision release on the 16th. Any way - </p>

<p>Accepted: Facebook! Then smoothies with friends and sushi with family.
Deferred: Crap, I need to start my safety applications…
Rejected: Drive home to “Someone like you” and drown my sorrows in popcorn and BSG.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone!</p>

<p>Accepted: Waterworks.
Deferred: Waterworks.
Rejected: Waterworks.
Hmm, so sometime between now and December 24th, I turn into Splish Splash! Good thing I have super-absorbent towels.</p>

<p>So…at what time tomorrow do we find out our decisions? I’m already getting butterflies.</p>

<p>I thought decisions came out the 15th?</p>

<p>… You thought wrong. Wouldn’t we all know already if they came out on the fifteenth?</p>

<p>The official stance is that they come out in “mid-December”. We found out a few days ago that they would be released on Monday, December 19th.</p>

<p>Accepted: CRYING + eating Olive Garden with my family
Deferred/Rejected: CRYING + going to the movies with my family to watch sappy romance movies and crying about things not-college</p>

<p>accepted= wearing my uchicago sweatshirt, sunglasses and sweatpants for the next month, putting my uchicago sticker on my car</p>

<p>rejected= burying myself in a hole for the next year.</p>

<p>accepted… :eek:</p>

<p>rejected… :cool:</p>

<p>deferred… :confused:</p>

<p>lmao @rejectedlikeapro</p>

<p>that’s hilarious, and perfect.</p>

<p>Accepted - Scream, shout, cry</p>

<p>Deferred - Look at the silver lining </p>

<p>Rejected - Sad</p>

<p>Tbh, I shouldn’t have bothered applying considering how bad I have learned the pre-med is so I’m somewhat indifferent. </p>

<p>Accepted: Controlled satisfaction, confidence for the RD round.</p>

<p>Deferred/Rejected: Lower confidence for RD round. Wonder why deferred/rejected, but no intense emotion.</p>

<p>Accepted: happiness, general satisfaction and relaxation (I’ll have basically finished all my RD apps!)</p>

<p>Deferred/Rejected: Damn, now I have to write tons more essays.</p>

<p>^ Yes! Lets hope for the best! (btw, that “Advice for the Deferred” thread freaked me out as I thought decisions somehow came out already…)</p>

<p>accepted: probably a lot of eating/dancing/running followed by more of the same
deferred: sadness, but not end of the world sadness since i already know what it feels like
rejected: probably just a lot of eating/sadness</p>

<p>Accepted? Be happy, update The Book, pay my registration, do no homework
Deffered? Meh. hope I get in
Denied? Meh. I am already in at 3 schools I like. </p>

<p>Also, when will decisions be posted?</p>

<p>If I am accepted, I will probably cry of happiness. I just got deferred from MIT, and it hurt more than I expected, and I want to go to UChicago more than I want to go to MIT.
If I get deferred, I will just go do my homework with shattered confidence.
If I am rejected, I will definitely cry.</p>

<p>I really need to get accepted!!!</p>

<p>@tcwest2012</p>

<p>“Late afternoon” tomorrow according to the UChicago Blog. So probably 5-ish.</p>

<p>Like 5ish Chicago time?</p>

<p>@ShorecrestHS22</p>

<p>Most likely.</p>

<p>Even though I honestly know I shouldn’t be expecting much, I’ll still feel quite disappointed and concerned for my RD apps since this will mean an 0-2 start to the App season. </p>

<p>If for some reason though the stars align and by some miracle I get accepted… I’ll be too overjoyed for words.</p>

<p>Debating whether putting on my UChicago sweatshirt tomorrow is a good idea… not that I’m superstitious or anything ;)</p>
