International Student looking for full ride

:frowning:

I can see a Congratulations! I don’t think it’s real. I mean it looks real. But I just got rejected from Oberlin and Smith and waitlisted at Bryn Mawr and this doesn’t look real. I can’t even cry because I don’t believe that it’s real yet. I’m waiting for the this is an error email. This is so surreal.

Look again.

Oh my God it’s still there.

Accepted to Amherst ahhh!!!

YAY¡!!!¡!!!
:slight_smile: :smiley: :):smiley:

Gigi !!!

(Amherst is amazing. The students who go there are amazing. Con-gra-tu-lations. Because of your age, would be immoral for me to urge you to pop open a bottle of champagne. So I’ll just do it and drink in your honor. Fabulous news. So happy for you.)

I am very very happy for you. Welcome to the US Gigi! And to one of the very best colleges in the world. :slight_smile:

@gigichuck Im really happy for you , you deserve it. You should accept the offer as soon as you get the financial aid information if its sufficient because sometimes they accept too many people for the same spots since some people dont accept their offers. Really glad you got that yes finally , hope you have a bright future

@Barekk, any good news for you?

Holy crap Amherst is a truly great school - you hit the jackpot!

@MYOS1634 Nah sadly waitlisted at washington and lee, Its alright tho , if the usa plan doesnt work out for me i got other plans im happy with. But im hoping for the best, still a coouple colleges left so yeah its fine!

Fingers crossed @barekk.

@gigichuck EEEP! CONGRATULATIONS! amherst is a great school! big things are waiting for you! :slight_smile:

Congraaats! So happy for you!
You did a great job!
I am sure you will have an awesome experience there!

Congratulations ahh!! Have been silently rooting for you for a while hehe, hope ivy day is also good to us poor internationals :b

@gigichuck OMG so happy for you! Have been following your posts! Best of luck and great school!

@gigichuck So awesome and @MYOS1634 is such a great college guide. Amherst is one of the best college towns in the US. We’re going to have to get you some warm clothes though. There should be great consignment shops in Amherst where you can get good things at a fraction of the cost.

And this was just like a soccer game. Ten shots on goal to get one in. But you did it!!!

Omg, I’m so happy for you–from another international student who’s gotten tons of rejections and “waitlisted” decisions. You’re so awesome

Hello! I read almost all the messages from here. Congrats, @gigichuck! As I am an international student too( need full ride as well) can you please tell me what were your colleges list? As I saw that you applied to many. If you can tell me the acceptance status too it would be great. I’m a junior and I have already started my research.

Thanks for all the support guys. You’re all amazing people and I couldn’t have made it this far without you guys. Still the Ivies next week lol but I’m not tense about that because Amherst! Lol.

@Ralu10 When the final decisions come in I’ll do just that.
