<p>10char</p>
<p>Thank you mom24girls! I’m definitely planning on doing all that. What a crazy coincidence :)</p>
<p>Congrats to everyone who has been accepted!</p>
<p>aw shay33 that’s really nice of you 
I’m sad that I won’t get to go to Barnard (such a great school in the best city ever!) but since they’re so selective, I’d already prepared myself for the thin envelope…it’s okay though, I’ll find my way to nyc eventually!</p>
<p>and for the people who are waitlisted, I know you’re sad, but there is still a chance! I bet since Barnard is so expensive and because Barnard may not be everyone’s top choice, enough spaces will open up. Good luck!</p>
<p>I got in!!!
to be honest I wasn’t even considering that I wouldn’t get rejected because I was waitlisted at Wellesley and I showed far less interest in Barnard.
So.
Happy.</p>
<p>To those of you who were waitlisted, don’t give up! Send a follow-up letter expressing how much you want to attend (if this is true.) I was accepted off the waitlist. In any case, I’m sure that whatever college you go to, you’ll be very happy!</p>
<p>STILL NOTHING!! I really think this is a bad sign and I’m really really nervous now.</p>
<p>Try to relax. My letter came really late (I live in TX). Most had gotten their decision by Wednesday, but mine didn’t come until Saturday. Just because its a bit late, doesn’t mean its a bad thing!</p>
<p>to theblusrstillblu, I am also still waiting for an acceptance/rejection (hopefully acceptance), and I live in California. Approximately how much time should it have taken to get here.
Should it have been here by today??</p>
<p>you can call i think… they tell you after a while.
insert your admissions ID on the accepted students page. it worked for me!</p>

<p>SUBJECTIVE:

<p>OTHER FACTORS:
SO HAPPPPPPY! :-)</p>
<p>Has anyone heard from the waitlist for the class of 2015??!</p>
<p>yeah i’m wondering the same thing too; has anyone heard from the waitlist yet??</p>
<p>i haven’t gotten the waitlist rejection/accepted letter…</p>
<p>Neither have I! I spoke to someone at admissions and they said that they have sent out letters to people still on the waitlist telling them their decision. They told me that if I don’t get a letter by this Friday, to call up. I am SO nervous. I have never wanted anything more in my life. I will let you all know as soon as I get a letter.</p>
