<p>Hey guys...I'm waiting too. I'm thinking I got in, cause I got into Wash U, got a big scholarship to Brandeis, and have a 1600 and good GPA with tons of extracurriculars and good essays. So maybe that makes some of you feel better...but I could have gotten rejected too. No top college is a safe bet at all. Either way, this is unacceptable, and we should all flood the office of admissions with angry emails so they have to sort through them all.</p>

<p>PS. I did also apply to the Music School, which I'm pretty sure I won't get into.</p>
<p>I applied to Medill, and I'm not really expecting to get in, but my God I'm tired of sitting around and wondering, I would like to move on with my life already!!!!!</p>
<p>that's really messed up if all the rejectees' decisions haven't been posted. cuz in the decisions thread seems like EVERYONE who got their decision got accepted.</p>
<p>-402</p>
<p>you know what.. I'm just going to believe I got rejected (no offense to all of you but I really deserve rejection with numbers and grades I have lol), and going to go out with my hermana and relax.</p>
<p>Good luck to all of you! and HELL WITH NU admission office to fiddle with our minds!! HOW DARE THEM TO DO THIS TO SUCH WONDERFUL GROUP OF HARDWORKING KIDS!! DAMN!!!</p>
<p>because peope, rejected, did not post thier stats thats why</p>
<p>yea that could be it too...</p>
<p>thanks alterman that makes me feel a little better, i also got into wash u and i really thought i had a great shot at northwestern.</p>
<p>so we've decided they send their decisions out in batches? what time will ours be up? if it's not up by 7 PM...let's all e-mail admissions.</p>
<p>agreed.... this is ridiculous. i'll be back in an hour or so......</p>
<p>alright me too. see you then.</p>
<p>It could be a computer glitch. That's an awful lot of decisions to put online at once, and something could have happened. Why would they send out the email if they were going to release the decisions in batches? Also, it seems like more people haven't heard than those who have heard. </p>
<p>Just my theory.</p>
<p>i dont think i wanna go to nu anymore after their fiasco</p>
<p>I'm angry, but it'll pass. It's just that I've been waiting for so long to get a decision, get that e-mail, and then this. Just reject me now! I can't take this much longer since I was looking forward to getting a decision of any sort over the weekend! </p>
<p>My mom made my day though. I told her what's happening, and she said we should just cut their hands off so they can't make a mistake like this again. One mistake is too many. That gave me a good laugh (just so everyone knows, we're just kidding). </p>
<p>If someone wants me to, I'm willing to e-mail that admissions rep about this.</p>
<p>but see, i got my email later than a lot of people. they obviously didn't email everyone at once.</p>
<p>Well, I didn't get any e-mail at all, but they still posted my decision. So I don't think e-mail has anything to do with this.</p>
<p>If it helps, this year someone I know got waitlisted at Wash U and accepted at Northwestern.</p>
<p>Hhhmm, I didn't get an email and decision isn't posted. ARGH!! I just got rejected today from a school. If NU is gonna reject me, which I now highly expect, JUST DO IT NOW PLEASE. ugh.</p>
<p>I think I'll have to wait until Monday for the mail. I hate this!</p>
<p>Stud, settle down; you're speaking nonsense! I think all of you need to just take a deep breath and go find something else to keep you busy (friends, reading, TV, sports).</p>
<p>I was in the same place in the middle of December so I can still remember how nervous I was to find out my decision. When I got on CC at about 11 at night and saw a thread that said the decisions were online I almost went crazy. My heart started beating really fast right before I entered my e-mail and application ID because I had been waiting for this moment since the summer, and I didn't want anything to ruin it. Plus, I would have to fill out my extra applications (most to even more selective schools), and that would be more of a hassle. So, when I finally found out that I was accepted, I printed out the page and posted it in the kitchen for my family to see when they woke up. </p>
<p>We were all very happy (partly because I'm a first generation student), and I'm still really excited about going to Northwestern next year; however, looking back, I psyched myself up to the point where I thought my whole life depended on getting into Northwestern. I really couldn't have seen myself at any other college, and I would have been really dejected had I not been given the chance to attend. But was it worth all of the stress I put myself through? Probably not. Northwestern is one of the best educational institutions in the world, but there are others that would provide the same great opportunities. I'm sure everyone will find their niche wherever they go. And if you don't like the position you're going to find yourself in, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.</p>
<p>And to those that are angry at NU for not posting your decisions, I say this: it is understandable that you are angry, but no one is to blame here. Their decisions technically weren't even supposed to be posted until April so they were nice enough to move the date up to today. If you compare this situation to what happened with the SAT's (which took weeks to post), did all of the 1600's get posted first? No. So that doesn't mean that all of the acceptances got posted first. There are a lot of things going on a Northwestern besides posting decisions, and this makes it quite easy to overlook a simple little glitch. Everyone knows that CC has a higher caliber of student then the general public so this should come as no surprise that so many people were accepted. Just keep hoping for the best, and your decision will come when it comes (remember, it HAS already been made, so theoretically it's not going to make a difference whether you see it a minute from now for a year from now).</p>
<p>very well said benz. i feel more relaxed now. i think its time i go watch some tv and go eat dinner</p>
