<p>I too got into Brandeis. I was most pleased to see the big blue envelope. I received the Presidential Scholarship, $20,000 a year.
As for stats:
790V 670M</p>
<p>790 Chem
780 Writing
750 Math 2C</p>
<p>GPA: 3.6/4.0 rank:35/275</p>
<p>16 Science olympiad medals, several other extra curriculars in depth
OK interview
Personal factor to help explain drop in GPA sophomore year</p>
<p>so i get this email saying i owe them the css/financial aid profile, but i wasn't going to apply for fin. aid, so it wasn't an issue. but then they tell me in the letter today that i owe them "senior grades" (<strong><em>? isn't that the midyear?) and a teacher rec. WHAT THE HELL. *</em></strong>ING HELL</p>
<p>Actually Brandeis is letting their Blue Ribbon applicants, a strange sort of Early Action (I think you can read more about it in other threads), know this week.</p>
<p>I'm wicked happy to report that I'm a go, too. (And wicked proud of my New England accent). I love how we all missed the big "Congratulations" on the envelope.</p>
<p>As for Stats, I have high grades and fairly good test scores, but I think they really are looking for rounded kids. Good luck to everyone who hasn't heard yet!</p>
<p>I got my acceptance about a month ago - ED Blue Ribbon - but just a note, my envelope was a regular white envelope, a bit thicker than normal. Any other Blue Ribbon ED's get one similar to mine? Just got me curious as I was so dissappointed at first, and all you guys got a huge "Congratulations!" envelope :)</p>
<p>There is probably a 90% chance that I will be going to 'Deis. I will do MUN, Euler's (it was on the fall open house list, but I haven't seen anything else about it, I will have to ask) and there was something else but I can't remember. :o</p>
<p>edit: Oh, knowledge bowl/trivia bowl it sounds like a lot of fun.</p>
<p>I got my big blue Congratulations! envelope!</p>
<p>Brandeis is the first school that I've heard back from, everything else is April 1st for me, but I feel so much more relieved now knowing that I have the option of going to a really good school!</p>
<p>It still doesn't feel real. My stats aren't as good as some of the other people who got in, so right now I'm amazed that they accepted me.</p>
<p>SAT- 740M 660V
ACT- 29
GPA- 3.7/4.2
My school doesn't rank us...
Good rec's, no interview, and I sent an essay from my Junior year. </p>
<p>Well, congrats to everyone else who got in. Perhaps we'll be seeing each other at the open house in April!</p>
