<p>Fortunately for me, Wash U wasn't really near the top of my list. I did get into my top choice which is UCLA, so that is most likely where I will be going (If I manage to get into Berkeley then I'll have to decide between the two). I'm from the Los Angeles area so I'm pretty excited to be going back home. But to all who got into Wash U and are going, congratulations! You deserve to be there!</p>

General Comments: WashU was by no means my first choice (I applied on a whim at the last minute because htey didn't stop sending me emails), but not that I got waitlisted, I feel really disappointed... I don't know, it's like it doesn't matter whether you want to go a particular school or not, it still feels ****ty to be rejected/waitlisted :( It's like you're not good enough! Well anyway, I showed little to no interest in this school sooo yeah that might have been a factor too.</p>

*General Comments: I am upset, but that is the usual with me when I get a disappointment like this. However, it is the waitlist so I guess there is still some hope. Wash U was really one of my top two choices, now that I was waitlisted from Wash U I am a lot less optimistic about a lot of my other schools. Congrats to anyone who was accepted, but to anyone who was accepted and will not be attending please tell them soon so you can help people like me get off the waitlist. *</p>
<p>I got waitlisted! Hmph.</p>
<p>Decision: Waitlisted</p>
