<p>I got in! I GOT IN! TAKE THAT, SCHOOL. YOU HAVE NO POWER OVER ME!!!</p>
<p>Also - stats:
Caucasian female, NoVa.
3.9 GPA, unweighted (4.3 weighted)
National Merit Commended Scholar, AP Scholar with Honors,
8 AP Classes by the end of senior year (I’ve finished four so far -all 5’s)
Choir, piano, French, volunteering
Essays were good, according to teachers. I got a reccomendation from the delegate that is in charge of William and Mary’s district, as well as two other stellar teacher recs.
Also - I got a 2230 on my SAT’s. </p>
<p>Again, extenuating circumstances. One of the people who reccomended me got a phone call from the chief of staff, saying I got in. He then let me know. Very nice of him - my eye was twitching from the stress.</p>
<p>the most stressful part is definitely opening the mailbox! ah like more stressful than opening the letter. westbound- my postman said he guessed it would be in MA tomorrow! i hope we both get in! representing the north!</p>
<p>Okay, everyone. Today has got to be the day! Do we know if any of the acceptances have come in the mail? I went over this thread and it looks like we still don’t know what an acceptance envelope looks like. If anyone hears today, please give the envelope details (if it’s an acceptance!). Also, continue to post stats. I’ll post my daughter’s once her letter comes, so that it is all in one post. KEEP YOUR FINGERS CROSSED AND STAY BUSY!! My daughter says she hasn’t slept all week…she’s working on a show and has 3 exams today (so maybe this is partly to blame)…Tick, Tock…</p>
<p>Just wanted to say one last time - Good Luck! I would love it everyone made it, because y’all seem like excellent college-mates. I’ve enjoyed this tumultuous adventure together.</p>
<p>walpurgisnacht: If I were you, I’d keep quiet about your having found out via the delegate (I am assuming); your stats were excellent and you probably would have been admitted without someone pulling strings, but it somehow is off putting when someone has been given a special privilege, especially in a public school setting. The rest of the folks here are waiting for the mail, like…well, little people without connections, or so your announcement might make people feel. Just sayin’.</p>
