<p>they have to be here by tomorrow! Or else we'll have to wait till monday! :O</p>
<p>i checked my mail and....nada! i guess i'll try again tomorrow.
congrats shadman.......plz gimme all the info!
If somebody doesn't want to go, can somebody decline to go?</p>
<p>wow. what if im rejected :( </p>
<p>that would suck. but one more spot for one of you guys so that's good i guess (trying not to sound selfish).</p>
<p>it doesn't sound selfish... well you got into other programs i'm sure.</p>
<p>well i'm so worried cuz i didnt apply in any other programs...i thought of RSI, LEAD, and SSP but MITES attracted me the most</p>
<p>if i don't make it i'll probably at classes at my local university and have some time to study for the SATs</p>
<p>Yeah that's what i'm going to do too friedrice, well sorta,(unless you do this too) cuz i actually live on campus as a full time student at a near by university.</p>
<p>hey guys.</p>
<p>well its a big white package. Lots of papers inside concerning financial aide, program details, course descriptions..etc. Unfortunately no handbook though. </p>
<p>My stats were ok. I mean if you compare my stats to some CC kids, im no where near good. The only hook i had as that my internship research over the past summer was published in a science journal. 4.0 GPA, 4 AP classes thus far. Im also from Bangladesh (which isn't considered to be a "minority" to them). Around 200 PSAT score. But my essays were killers (in my opinion) and one of my teachers wrote an outstanding recommendation letter. </p>
<p>Hope this helps!
Good luck!</p>
<p>Financial Aid? The program is free of cost though.. People only have to pay for airfare.</p>
<p>^
Congrats!!!!!! Also, being a bangladeshy is considered "asian" so double congrats!!!!</p>
<p>Which state do u live??? Was the package in your mailbox or front door?</p>
<p>^
It's probably for air-fare????</p>
<p>Yea most likely its for the airfare. But Shadman I think is the first asian that was not rejected thus far on this forum, that sort of boosts my confidence a bit.</p>
<p>Shadman what state are you from, this gives the rest of us an idea of how long it might take for the decision to reach home.</p>
<p>i live in NY. </p>
<p>by the way, theres no financial aide package (the papers states "Financial Responsibility and Program Contract"), i just read it wrong lol</p>
<p>You're definetely closer to Mass. than I am.</p>
<p>woah Shadman props on making to MITES.
i didn;t get in haha but i am happy to see some fellow azns get accepted in there. </p>
<p>anyways have fun there!</p>
<p>congrats, Shadman</p>
<p>Thanks Guys!</p>
<p>gl to all</p>
<p>I Got In!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>really?? congrats? quick, ur stats! and race!</p>
<p>Okay. My PSAT was 200 exactly (don't remember the component scores).</p>
<p>Race: Taiwanese.</p>
<p>Uh...weighted GPA is about 4.5, UW like 3.6.</p>
<p>not many extracurriculars other than Varsity Cross Country and my hobby (computer programming)</p>
<p>Let me know if you want me to send you some of my essays or anything.</p>
<p>I'm in disbelief.</p>
