Let's Survive the Wait Together

<p>Argh, I don't know if I can wait...</p>

<p>So scared about my Why I want to Transfer Essay! I tried to be original, and now I think I've gone completely off the radar... </p>

<p>Anyways...</p>

<p>I applied to, Cornell, Upenn, Pomona, Emory, Stanford, and Amherst. Terrible College list I know, but I only applied to schools that would let me go for free with their new sub40k combined parent income rule. I should have applied to Ithaca. </p>

<p>I think, Cornell or Pomona alerts first...</p>

<p>Over the summer I'm probably going to be working a lot, I need to earn a lot of money so that I can spend it on essentials during the school year. Other then that, I'll probably just be going to the gym a lot (I've gotten really addicted to the gym) and hanging out with friends, watching movies, etc.</p>

<p>craaaazy tough list Bourne, fingers crossed for you kid.</p>

<p>Yeah. I realized my stupidity and applied to Brandeis and CMC yesterday. Everything is sent and I shall sit back and wait and tear out my hair...</p>

<p>haha, likewise. oh! and don't forget the gnashing of teeth...</p>

<p>im only applying to 2 schools, and the deadline for one of them hasnt even passed yet (april 1st) lol. hearing about the acceptances/rejections from my old high school doesnt help either when i still have to wait 2 months for mine! but ive been keeping myself busy with schoolwork and maintaining my GPA in the meantime.. i constantly keep reminding myself that my grades are what will determine my chances for getting into those schools. anyway, good luck to everyone! :)</p>

<p>I know what you mean moonwave. I applied to UVA for transfer and every senior at the high school I went to found out whether they got in or not. I have to wait till April 30th.</p>

<p>:( just got rejected to purdue (transfer-soph,actuarial science)..
i even cant cry anymore. just stun and shock reading the letter.</p>

<p>in my drake's account, they said they made the decision already..but i hv to wait the letter to know...better be good..otherwise... (knock on the wood)</p>

<p>have my fingers crossed for ya chowder! good luck to you!!</p>

<p>chowder I am really sorry to hear that bad news. I really hope you get into your other choice schools.</p>

<p>It's okay chowder...just wasn't meant to be. -group hug for chowder-</p>

<p>I feel like I'm wasting my whole summer. I could be taking summer school, but I have no idea where I'm going to end up... so instead I'm going to be sitting at home and chilling. Waiting for these dang letters.</p>

<p>Read some books.</p>

<p>Find things to occupy your time otherwise it's going to be a long summer wait for you. </p>

<p>Read
Watch Movies/TV
Go out with friends
Gym
Do housework
Draw
Play an instrument
Learn a new language</p>

<p>I try to pray everyday. I guess I'll find out if that helped come May 1st.</p>

<p>hey guys,,i hv a question.
since i saw that my chances to Drake, UNL, and Baruch are small..
perhaps I should take another shot in SAT?
I did it almost 2yrs ago and got 1500s/2400 and never retake. thats why i never use my SAT for my apps. is it fine, to do that (im in my 2nd semester)? I hope I can get in a whatever uni that accept me (CUNY Queens, towson uni) and apply all uni that (will) reject me for Spring 09...
wht do you think? or,,any better options? advices?
btw,,does anyone know about towson uni?</p>

<p>wht other univ.s you'll suggest me?
im from comm college in CT.. interested in actuarial science..
want a decent univs (public/private doesnt matter), total $/yr = $20,000s.</p>

<p>Trying-to-save-GPA-before-it dies- :( Scariest semester EVER.</p>

<p>I excercise and do my nails. it really kills the time.</p>

<p>Update for me:</p>

<p>I haven't received any acceptance letters yet, but William and Mary will supposedly have their acceptance letters mailed out by April 15th, so it's getting close. :) </p>

<p>I still have to wait 25 more days till I get my UVA decision (Number 1 choice).</p>

<p>none of my schools tell me anything till May. last year JHU was sending stuff in the beg of June, even though I assume by then its like given that you are rejected. </p>

<p>Does anyone know when NYU generally starts sending letters, they say mid may, but thats so ambiguous and its my top choice..soooo I'm nervous.</p>
