<p>@jungli Neither did I! :D</p>
<p>Rejected MIT :)</p>
<p>@ Hey jungli! Nice to see another HKU applicant - I got in for Social sciences (psychology). My conditional offer was 36 IB points. Not too hard to get. 
My mom is very keen for my to go but I am waiting for lots of decisions… What was your offer? Is it high on your list?</p>
<p>Oh thats great! I’ve got to get 90 in each subject in ISC, no worries there, but almost all my exams are done with so not much I can do to change it either way haha. Its my backup. 
I’m waiting on american universities. Did you get a scholarship?</p>
<p>Accepted Georgia Tech :)</p>
<p>Hey! All posts now in the new thread.</p>
<p>University of Chicago</p>
<p>^ Congrats, Chromey!</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>congrats chromey! Good for you!
I got waitlisted… It was one of my top choices so yep, I’m disappointed. But then international applicant needing loadsa fin aid+ uchicago. <em>shrugs</em></p>
<p>^ It’s okay pix. I’m sure we all have better things in store!</p>
<p>And Chromey, did you apply for aid? If yes, what kind of aid package did you get?</p>
<p>@Chromey: and you were thinking that there would be no more after the UCLA rejection !!!</p>
<p>Congrats, Chromey!
Very disappointed with waitlists. I am sure you will get into better schools.</p>
<p>^^there are very few schools that I consider to be equal to uchicago, but anyway, I have to admit that I’m surprised they even waitlisted us (esp me since im asking for a lot more aid than u), seeing that chicago’s one of the choosiest when it comes to internationals with aid! Still, I can’t say I didn’t hope. One of my friends with lotsa stuff with WHO Geneva office and loadsa service trips, no aid reqd got rejected. :eek: Hope it works out for the two of us. :)</p>
<p>I wonder what’s Nemo’s decision?</p>
<p>i don’t think chromey applied for aid. He did Warwick remember? And uk isn’t huge on aid.</p>
<p>Tippu, I’m sorry. 
Btw where are you getting all these names from? =_=
and why do you keep telling me to take rest? :S
I’m doing just fine, thanks. :p</p>
<p>I got rejected, as expected. I’m not disappointed though, I was expecting it. Looking back on my application, it was so rushed (especially my ‘Why Chicago?’ essay), and if you remember, I was indecisive till the very last moment as to whether I should apply or not. It was only after Tippu prodded me a bit that I thought I’d give it a go. Add to that the fact that I’m asking for full aid, so it was definitely a no. I saw it coming really, and after the initial disappointment I got over it. I’d braced myself since Wednesday, and anyway, today was a pretty good day regarding the IB so I can’t be too down for long.
Congratulations on your acceptance Chromey!! And there you were saying you won’t get in anywhere. Pixie and VM, your waitlist makes no sense, but that’s the strange world of college decisions for you.
I don’t think Chromey applied for substantial aid. He got in to UIUC at one point I think? And there are the UK schools of course. I could be wrong though.</p>
<p>@Pixie
Where did you get that emoticon from???</p>
<p>@Tippu
WTH? How do you know my name? This is creepy.</p>
<p>@Nemo
Aww, that sucks. 
Some VERY weird decisions this time around.</p>
<p>Ok so now it’s only my close friend’s decision pending. She hasn’t replied to my text yet, and I texted her when decisions came out, I’m having a bad feeling about this She’s a brilliant candidate, she’s not an ORM, and she doesn’t require any aid so I thought the result would definitely be positive! She really wanted to get in, I’m worried for her now :|</p>
<p>^^ Sorry. An initial is not a name. Ok, I removed it.</p>
<p>Nemo, I am sorry to hear UChicago couldn’t grant you admission.</p>
<p>nemo: im so so sorry! 
i like how we both are entering each decision though. Completely prepared for rejection/wl/deferral but totally not for acceptance. But u have UBC to fall back on, and im so so happy for you! Didn’t get a chance to congratulate you the other time i posted. This is going to be my status once i log on from laptop tommorrow, AND i shall write a nice long reply to your PM.
Still, here’s a hug, I still love uchicago so much, so I know how you feel.</p>
