LEAD Summer Business Institute

<p>When should we expect to hear word?</p>

<p>taebubu, isn't your GPA that you input on a nonweighted scale, meaning 4 is the highest? I thought that's what it said on teh transcript, unless they modified it this year. Crap. hahaha</p>

<p>nothing today
I need to find out potential dates
should I call</p>

<p>I emailed and all I got was- acceptances were sent out this week</p>

<p>I called...i got waitlisted =/. Apparently the process is they admit 330 people. About 1000 apply. They need to accept 50% females and 50% males. They also try to accept the same amount of applicants from each state. Only 10 to 20 who are admitted say they can't attend. Even then, they have to drop out of your #1 choice university, and they have to be from your state. So basically my chances of getting in now are extremely slim.</p>

<p>It's so complicated and kind of unfair but o well. Anyone know of any other business programs? i would have done LBW but the application deadline was april 1st. kinda ****ed...</p>

<p>I have no idea which gpa i put on my LEAD app.</p>

<p>THANK GOD!
called... I'm going to Illinois</p>

<p>stay up 81... who knows... you might have a spot (I believe God works in mysterious ways), besides, this is not what is going to determine your success</p>

<p>I presume you are intelligent and will make things happen down the line</p>

<p>and for any other Illini LEADers... see ya in Summer '07</p>

<p>Thanks DJ. And Congrats! do you guys have any suggestions what i should do this summer that is business related?</p>

<p>i'm getting anxiety attacks now...waiting till friday, omgawsh hahahaha. More than 1/2 of my post on this forum over the past 2 years have come from this thread :P</p>

<p>to 81: I'll def look some more for ya</p>

<p>Im going to call first thing tomarrow- I pray that I got accepted</p>

<p>you prob should wait to after the mail comes in
cause they said this weekend, which probably means Friday/Saturday...
uh... it does mean Friday/Saturday</p>

<p>I don't know if I can wait that long lol but I'll see. When you guys called they just told you?</p>

<p>Thanks a ton DJ. I'm looking too. Don't worry too much about it Mr. Tubbz. Whether you get in or not it's not the end of the world. And yes, when you call they tell you whether you were accepted, waitlisted (semi finalist), or rejected. Just mention that you haven't received the results of the admission process yet and would like to know where you stand.</p>

<p>I just got into LEAD @ Cornell
anybody else going?</p>

<p>Wait, so you got it in the MAIL today joe?</p>

<p>And what were your stats? Like GPA, PSAT, essay topics?</p>

<p>I still haven't received any notification by mail. hmmmm weird.</p>

<p>Yea i got notified in the mail this afternoon
GPA: Unweighted 94.96, weighted 96.93
PSAT: 200
Essay topics: Hedge fund regulations, and organizing a trip to a doctors without borders seminar</p>

<p>damnet, still haven't received it in the mail. This is tearing me apart; anyone have AIM to help me as a support group? Hahahah. Mine is EQualized777 I need help :P</p>

<p>Got the notice in the mail today. I already knew the result though. Semifinalist. I'll be notified in late april whether someone drops out and I can go, so I'm crossing my fingers.</p>
