Mac 2015 Hopefuls

<p>placed on the Alternate List…well, damn.</p>

<p>found out today, was an unexpected yes! so happy right now. now i have to figure out how i’m going to make my final decision…</p>

<p>I got my letter today and it is a yes!!! I’m really happy. BTW, I live right outside the twin cities in Wisconsin. I’m a National Merit Finalist and I haven’t recieved anything about financial aid…hopefully soon? Congratulations to everyone else!</p>

<p>My son was placed on the alternate list. Disappointing. I didn’t go to college myself so this whole experience is new to me. He’s such an amazing student, I was really hoping he’d get in. Best of luck to all those accepted!</p>

<p>Letter came today in FL, got rejected. Ah, well.</p>

<p>My daughter received her acceptance today!</p>

<p>Best wishes to all of you. You will end up at the right school for you, whether it be Mac or someplace else.</p>

<p>D rejected in NY - a little surprised, but not unhappy. Good luck and congrats to all!</p>

<p>urhhhh…i’m an int’l but i’m studying in the states right now…hopefully get my letter today!</p>

<p>I got rejected, oh well.
Congrats to those who got accepted though!</p>

<p>i got in!!!</p>

<p>for the people who got in, didn’t,</p>

<p>where are your credentials??</p>

<p>D got waitlisted. 3.95 GPA UW. 2030 SAT (2070 superstore). Letter was very nice though!</p>

<p>I got in. 36 ACT, 3.9 UW/4.17 W, solid but unspectacular ECs, spent sophomore year abroad (focused essays on foreign affairs, which probably helped).</p>

<p>Did any int’ls hear back from them? please message me…</p>

<p>@zhiyioakdal I don’t think any international decisions have been sent yet.</p>

<p>Accepted. gpa 3.5uw, 4.43w, act31, awesome ec.</p>
