Just finished writing my deferral letter

<p>well, i just wrote my letter saying that i still continue to express interest in the school, etc. all i can do now is hope. my first semester grades are good, so hopefully this spring break will be a happy one :)</p>

<p>anyone else in the same boat?</p>

<p>Yeah, I wrote a similar letter last week.</p>

<p>yeah I am finishing that now. I hope it isn't too late to postmark it tomorrow!</p>

<p>Does anyone know when they start reviewing RD applications/ if deferred ED applications are viewed separately, or literally thrown randomly into the RD pool?</p>

<p>no you really have the ods against you if you are a deffered student. the rd decides which students he/she wants to represent in front of the committee and then the rest are rejects..</p>

<p>Odds are not that much worse than any RD applicant - I think 10% of deferred get in on 2nd round which is not that different than the general pool of RD people. Think positive but don't count on it.</p>
