<p>Above is my son. Congrats to all accepted. For those deferred -- good luck in next round. Son was deferred at MIT and knows a little how that feels. </p>

<p>Can't get the bullet points to display properly.</p>

<p>Didn't look much at Agora the past few days as they indicated that decisions would not be available online and also it seemed to be not working correctly the one time I did look -- so I can't shed any light on whether scripts on the page signalled decisions.</p>

<p>I'm on vacation so I'm making my neighbor get my mail and tell me if I got a big envelope!! I have to wait until 300 pm though for the mail to come...</p>

<p>but i was already accepted to Georgetown so I'm happy :)</p>

<p>I still pick BC over GTown any day though.</p>

<p>Finally - the letters to the NYC area arrived. Good news!!!</p>

<p>no letter in the mail in florida today. however, my friend (lives five miles away) got his letter but i don't know if he got in. is it possible that a bigger envelope takes longer to mail? or am i just trying to make myself feel good</p>

<p>Decision: ACCEPTED!</p>

<p>[ *] School Applied to: College of Arts & Sciences</p>

<p>[ ] **Stats*:
[ *] SAT: 690 CR, 670 M, 750 W (1360 / 2110)
[ *] SAT IIs: 760 USH, 700 Bio-M, 630 Lit, 630 Bio-E
[ *] GPA: 94.5 UW
[ *] Rank: 10/263 (Top 4%)
[ *] Other stats: 5 on Bio, 4 on USH, 3 on English Lit. Hardest courseload available, etc.</p>

<p>[ ] **Subjective*:
[ *] Extra Curriculars: Captain of 3 Varsity teams, NHS Board Member, President of Key Club, etc. (Pretty general stuff, overall).
[ *] Essays: I guess BC liked it?
[ *] Teacher Recs: Not particularly outstanding, I'd imagine.
[ *] Counselor Rec: This was probably pretty amazing, although I've never read it for myself.
[ *] Hook (if any): I'm a White Male from Long Island, NY... in other words, no.
[ *] Location/Person: Long Island, NY
[ *] State or Country: U.S.
[ *] School Type: Public
[ *] Ethnicity: White as can be.
[ *] Gender: Male
[ *] Major Strength/Weakness: Excel in English/History, and not too shabby in the Math/Science department.
[ *] Why You Think You Were Accepted: Seriously, no idea.. I had a pretty mediocre SAT score, perhaps slightly above-average class rank and GPA, and fairly standard ECs... I'm not sure HOW I got accepted, but I'm absolutely THRILLED that I have been! :D
[ *] Other Factors: None to speak of.
[ *] Going to Attend?: It's still only December, so I have to see how I fare with my other schools first.. But it's certainly a possibility. :)</p>

<p>listen, guys, i had a subpar gpa and mediocre sat scores. i KNEW i was gonne be defferred, i guess not. i am positive that the only reason i got in is my ethnicity. not only am i hispanic at a white as bleach school, but alot of my app was about my being hispanic (my EC's, my tear-jerking essay about my identity crisis.) my message is this, my stats are ALOT worse than alot of you who got/will get defferred. i just had one thing going for me, thats all. </p>

<p>good luck to all, i cannot describe how excited and surprised i am.</p>
