New Jersey Governor's School of Engineering and Technology 2014

<p>The results are out. Good luck everyone.</p>

<p>The first one is always the worst. Rejected.</p>

<p>My son got in!! Soooo excited. Good luck to all.</p>

<p>Same… Rejected.</p>

<p>Well, that screwed up my whole summer. At least we are destined for better things than this, right?</p>

<p>Congratulations to those that make it! I sadly didn’t :confused: </p>

<p>Did anyone at least fet waitlisted?</p>

<p>Yeah. For some reason. Does your email say that you’re a finalist?</p>

<p>Got rejected. In fact I got two rejection emails haha. Got excited for a second. Didnt really expect to get in though so yeah, not too much of a shock.</p>

<p>Rejected. I had a feeling.</p>

<p>It says I’m a finalist, but I think that just means nominee.</p>

<p>Did anyone’s explicitly mention anything about being on the waitlist? Or is the waitlist completely secret.</p>

<p>I don’t think there is a wait list. I think the people who got accepted have spots, but those spots don’t have to be filled if they bail.</p>

<p>My mistake: apparently there is a wait list.</p>

<p>Well, brothers, it was nice talking to you, although it is sad I will most likely never get to see you guys in person. If I may, I am just curious about what kind of stats you folks had. Personally, I think my extracurriculars, or lack thereof, got me kicked.</p>

<p>Oh, I’ll most likely be going to Boys State for a week, which will be pretty cool I guess. Anyone else?</p>

<p>I have no idea. It could be my essays or my GPA or something else. I thought my essays were okay, but maybe I should have emphasized my engineering related extra curriculars more than I did.</p>

<p>100% GPA. Everything else I thought was good, but that 3.7 UW makes a huge dent.</p>

<p>Any other programs you guys are doing this summer?</p>

<p>Im going to apply for a research opportunity at Princeton. If that doesnt work out either I’ll end up working at a local summer camp, which isn’t that bad either.</p>

<p>my email said i was waitlist, oh wel, better than rejection? </p>
