the wait is over, finally</p>

<p>@sboltaq don’t mourn! no one from steinhardt has gotten annnything yet! and many of the acceptances from other nyu schools haven’t even gone out.</p>

<p>@sbotlaq
the only people who’ve received anything have been from NYC (and a matter of minutes away). I’m 45 minutes away in NJ and haven’t heard anything (nor have the other 5 people who applied in my school). Depending on where you are, you might need to give it a few days before you decide you’ve been rejected.</p>

<ul>
<li>there have ALWAYS been instances where the second/third wave letters have some acceptances. no news isn’t 100% certainly bad news.</li>
</ul>

<p>You guys are right…I won’t know until I know. Plus I’m 5 hours away in upstate ny. Hopefully by Monday or Tuesday.</p>

I am a National Merit Semifinalist, an AP Scholar with Distinction, and a member of several national honor societies. My weighted GPA ranks lower than that of at least 80 to 90 other seniors at my high school (36th percentile).

Footbagging is my passion.</p>
