Me, too!

<p>I'm an international...got nothing yet...guess I'm rejected...sigh...2 rejections and 1 deferrment...2 more schools...seeing rejection everywhere :'(</p>

<p>fluffloooz: hey, congrats! :D lucky you. do you mind posting your stats? :)</p>

<p>My stats are as follows (Since inquiring minds want to know):</p>

<p>1440 SAT (780 Verbal, 660 Math)
700 US History SAT2
710 Wrting SAT2
620 Math IIC SAT2</p>

<p>Rank: 28 out of 700
Poor public school in South Texas (that probably helped a lot)</p>

<p>Extracurriculars: A lot, but the main one is Debate, Ive done it all through high school and Ive been pretty sucessful on the state level (occasionally poking my head in on the national scene, usually to get it cut off). </p>

<p>Yeah thats pretty much it.</p>

<p>COngratulations to everyone who's been accepted and good luck to everyone who still has their fingers crossed.</p>

<p>Are there any other NMFs out there who haven't received a letter?</p>

<p>fluffloooz, which country are u from?</p>

<p>crygoose, don't worry, I have 3 other friends who applied to Carleton and none of them have heard from the school yet. Maybe it was the scholar notification? Where are you from?
PierreMarie: Thank you!! Top 5%, 750v 690m, 680wr/720bio-e/670ic (low SAT2s, so I think they focused on my IB predicted scores). Lots of awards in south east asian int'l schools speech/debate and soccer/rugby conferences.
zhuyiron: From Taiwan but I've lived in Thailand all my life.
I hope the rest of you int'l hear from Carleton soon, and if you do, give me a msg, my friends are going crazy too.</p>

<p>fluffloooz: I'm from singapore. congrats about carleton!
Praying hard...but it's hopeless wait...</p>

<p>I was accepted today. Letter dated March 18th, postmarked March 21. So it took 4 days to get from Carleton to PA.</p>

<p>This is really exciting; it's my first acceptance.</p>

<p>congrats! carleton was my first acceptance too.</p>

<p>niiice, i just got back from vacation and my fat package was in the mailbox.</p>

<p>Yes! I got home to find the fat envelope in the mailbox today! Their booklets introducing Carleton are great, and since I am a National Merit Finalist they will pay for half my airfare if I visit. I'm very relieved since I am a junior leaving high school a year early, so I thought I was at a bit of a disadvantage. Now, waiting to hear from Oberlin, Pomona, Grinnell, Reed, and Wesleyan.</p>

<p>Got rejected.. like I thought I would too. I'm not upset, because I wouldnt have gone anyway bc of the location. but.. i duno its kinda upseting to get two rejections in a row. the other was from colby, another one i wouldnt have gone to, because my mom forced me to apply there... at least colbys letter was personal.</p>

<p>Don't worry nikki164. their loss for not accepting you, not yours.
Smile!</p>

<p>Congrats to everyone who got in! The excitement! Hehe.
And those who recieved rejections, don't worry, it's Carleton's lost. Plus, there will be better news! </p>

<p>crygoose: If they mail 18th or 24th, you'll get it maybe sometime next week? And by "it", I mean acceptance letter! Btw, do you go to SAS or UWC?</p>

<p>thank you ss1987! yea, i'm not too concerned. i have heard from three other great schools thus far that have accepted me, and hopefully there will be more. thank you!</p>

<p>fluffloooz, actually, i got my acceptance letter earlier for I was in the ED pool. I got my letter about one week after someone in the States said he was in. It was exactly on Feb 15. So I guess, int'ls will get theirs on Apr 1 this time. Crygoose, don't worry, there will be good news.</p>

<p>Thanks zhuyiron, Ill pass that on to my friends. Arggh I'm so excited! I want to have my fat Carleton package with all the goodies that David described. :P</p>

<p>Got in..I am a NMF but hispanic. They gave me $2,000.</p>

<p>fluffloooz: thank you so much! but I doubt my getting accepted...just an average applicant...not from sas or uwc...from a public high school in singapore...checked email and got nothing...nothing in mail too...really scared...no acceptances so far :(</p>

<p>Internationals who got decision by mail- do Carleton send mail through DHL courier?</p>
