m_c: you are from korea? that is cool...i'm korean. a family friend of mine also applied from korea to swarthmore (her name is michelle). i wonder if she was accepted...she goes to Daewon Foreign Language High School.

m_c · March 27, 2006, 11:47pm

Hey ek1099, that's so cool. My name's Michelle too! I don't go to Daewon though (they're hardcore there), I go to an international school in Seoul. I'd rather not say which one, just for the sake of privacy.

I'm Korean but I was born in the States and lived there for most of my life so even I applied as a domestic student even though I live overseas now. Hope your friend was accepted!

imiracle911 · March 27, 2006, 11:51pm

I think that some people in this thread failed to follow directions, and instead only posted that they were accepted. Thus, they were never included in this list. But I am too lazy to go back and add them. I would rather add myself ...

Anonymous99 · April 3, 2006, 12:25am

haha...I never specified for ED or RD...never thought about it!

Sorry guys...my enthusiasm has died down a bit...been waitlisted at Swat...

Anyway, I was gonna find that website where people can actually post their location on a map and everyone can see those marks on the map for locations...but it's just a bit depressing right now...

interesteddad · April 3, 2006, 12:45am

Friedmoon:

Welcome. You can join Yimei from Shanghai, who was accepted early decision.

My Swarthmore daughter is headed to Beijing and Shanghai as part of semester abroad next year. She's really excited about it. She'll be living with a Chinese family for a month -- doesn't know yet whether it will be in an apartment building or a hutong.

yimei · April 3, 2006, 3:56am

to Friedmoon:Congratulations on your acceptance!As interesteddad said,I'm also from China~I hope you'll choose Swat.It'll be nice to have another Chinese swattie around =]

to interesteddad:thank you for the introduction!If your daughter need any info about life in Shanghai,just contact me~I'll be happy to help!

interesteddad · April 3, 2006, 2:07pm

Thanks, Yimei. I'll tell my daughter she might want to e-mail you before she heads to Shanghai if she has any questions.

She's excited about Shanghai. I've raved to her about experiencing the incredible bustle and
"East meets West" energy in Tokyo and Hong Kong. It appears that Shanghai, the fastest economic growth of any city in the world I think, offers the same kind of experience. It sounds like if you take a nap in Shanghai, you can wake up and find that an entire city block has been razed and replaced with new skyscrapers. I recently read that one quarter of the world's construction cranes are currently in use in Shanghai. Amazing.

I think that cities like Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shanghai are so vibrant because change is so palpable -- especially when the change from traditional cultures to hyper-growth and consumerism is happening at warp-speed. The kind of major social change (from agrarian economies to industrial/consumer economies) that took centuries or more in Europe or the United States is compressed into a generation or two in Asian countries. You can almost feel the electricity in the air. I imagine that your Shanghai is VERY different from that of your grandparents!

interesteddad · April 3, 2006, 4:17pm

Hey, Yimei and Friedmoon:

Looks like you aren't the only Chinese accepted to Swarthmore. Six students from China were accepted, tying South Korea as the most popular countries for accepted Swatties this year. Two more students were accepted from Hong Kong.

As far as states:

California was #1 with 13% of the acceptances.
New York was #2 with 12%.

Followed by:

New Jersey
Pennsylvania
Texas
Massachusetts
Maryland
Florida
Georgia
Virginia
Illinois
Ohio
