<p>Hello everyone! As we wait in anticipation for the 16 days (different depending on the school you're applying to, of course), I thought I would start the official 'clean' list. When the time comes please follow the formatting below, and also please try to keep it in alphabetical order. Please place commas or slashes between schools.</p>
<p>** Insert Name **
Accepted:
Waitlisted:
Rejected:</p>
<p>To bold your name simple write [ b ] on the right hand side and [ / b ] on the left hand (No spaces)</p>
<p>This might be a little bit preemptive. It’s just going to get filled with meaningless posts before M9. I’m going to post the official list of applicant stats and decisions on March 6. If I were you I’d post another copy of this closer to the date.</p>
<p>So when you re-open this post, just make a full format so that people can just copy the name of the school(s) they are admitted. And also have the accepted/waitlisted/rejected words colored.</p>
<p>I got accepted to both boarding schools I applied to in the UK, Wellington College and Westminster School, but I know this forum is US focused, so I won’t post this on the official thread to come :)</p>
<p>@UKgirl23: Congrats! You’re very good! Both are great schools. I was awarded a 30% scholarship at Concord College UK but I chose to study in the U.S</p>
<p>Wow, even looking at the word rejected has me breaking in a sweat. I just hope come March 11th I’ll have two acceptances and no rejections. Crossing my fingers.</p>
<p>^ True, you have a bigger pool. Sometimes I wished I’d stood up to my parents and made them apply for one or two more schools…but what’s done is done. Now I can only hope for the best.</p>
<p>@bsroxmysox: One of my regrets in this season was that I didn’t argue with my parents more. When I first started, they remarked, “The schools need to have Phillips in their name.” So, basically, my school search was Andover/Exeter; there were no if, ands, or buts.</p>
<p>Thus, I had to debate repeatedly with them to get an application through to Choate and Taft; it took another strenuous round to get them to let go of Exeter’s forms. However, I didn’t have enough time to sell L’ville to them-and it sounded like a great school, too!</p>
<p>On a side note-could you cross another two fingers for me? And if that is too inconvenient (which it probably is), why don’t you cross some toes as well? :D</p>
<p>@GoldenRatio Oh gosh, any more people and I’ll have to use my toes! But yes, I will reserve two fingers for the lovely GoldenRatio. Wish I’d been more like you, but guess all there’s left to do is hope I get into one…with sufficient financial aid.</p>
<p>@GoldenRatio I’m not in ambidextrous, but I can type with my left hand, although not very well. Oh, I think I prefer the right hand, so cross your fingers on the right hand for me. Thanks, haha.</p>
<p>@wavyboy2017 I like your username, very interesting imo.</p>
<p>@UKgirl23 Thanks, I know I’m going to need it!</p>
<p>@wavyboy2017: Your username reminds me of the flow; you know, the hairstyle that I believe Justin Bieber and One Direction made popular?</p>
<p>@UKgirl23: Thanks! I would say best of luck to you as well, but you’ve already gotten into one of your top-choice schools!</p>
<p>@bsroxmysox: I can’t type without glancing at the keyboard. Let alone with only one hand! Two fingers on my right hand are now reserved for you, haha.</p>
