<p>I have heard rumors of a release date on April 1 but I truly do not see why they wouldn’t be issued on March 31.</p>
<p>Its gonna be nearly half a day later for me. ■■■</p>
<p>I will get my decision at midnight due to the timedifference! So literally April first… April fools! </p>
<p>But hey, I have already contented myself in my looming rejection. No point expecting the impossible, right?</p>
<p>A LOT of point actually Isn’t that why we applied ;-)</p>
<p>… This thread’s title reminded me of that awful song by Europe…</p>
<p>That being said, April 1st or March 31st at 5pm. I don’t really care because I’d rather wait for physical letters than on a website… Idk but there’s something that seems wrong or even empty about getting decsisions online.</p>
<p>When do int’l students get letters?</p>
<p>^ They send them out the same time as everyone elses but it takes about 3-5 days to get to England.</p>
<p>26 days left until my DOOM.</p>
<p>25 days till I get one among many rejections. About 91% of us will get rejected so be a pessimist and assumpe the worst. That’s how I’m coping.</p>
<p>It isn’t as much fun to get accepted then IMO. I’ll just console myself AFTER the rejection I guess.</p>
<p>gedion: I second that.</p>
<p>That’s true, but think about it this way: if you applied to more than one highly selective school (say, four or five), you stand a good chance of getting accepted to at least one of them.</p>
<p>Mark your calendars. Admit weekends are April 15-17 or April 22-24.</p>
<p>gedion: While your right that 91% of applicants will get a rejection letter, I HIGHLY doubt 91% of CCers will get rejected. I would bet around 30% of us get into Princeton at least…probably more than that but who knows.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>that’s what i thought would happen EA at yale, but the results were very odd indeed.</p>
<p>30%? you on drugs boy? Or are the majority of ccers high SAT high GPA types? I’m certainly not that type. Which is why I say whenever you get the urge to fantasize about getting in and sitting idly on princeton’s lush green lawns while enjoying beautiful gothic architechure slap yourself. Remember the cold hard sober facts!</p>
<p>what does IMO mean?</p>
<p>^In my opinion</p>
<p>soadquake: untrue. Just because you got rejected from, say, Harvard, Princeton, Cornell, MIT, doesn’t mean that you’ll get into, say, Yale. Every decision is independent of that of every other decision. </p>
<p>Similarly, it’s like rolling a fair die. There’s a 1/6 chance of getting a 6, and a 1/6 chance of getting another six, but 1/36 chance of getting a 6 on BOTH rolls.</p>
<p>That’s part of what makes admissions so nerve-wracking. You could get rejected from all of your universities (medium to very high chance, depending on where you applied), but you could also get accepted from all of your universities (very low)</p>
<p>Altruition:</p>
<p>I agree all these events are independent of eachother. However, if you apply to more schools, you are simply rolling that six sided dice over and over again. Thus, you get “more rolls” and, hence, have more opportunities to roll that six.</p>
