<p>SO EXCITED! I received the likely letter. It sounds like they want me! I cant believe that I got such a thing from an ivy league university. I am just an ordinary person who tries hard in school. Guess that pays off.</p>

<p>i too got a likely letter from engineering...........very happy!</p>

<p>woohoo! my college counselor LAUGHED at me when i told her i wanted to go to Cornell! now she is going to tell everyone i owe my acceptance to her! hahaahha oh the irony.</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! not a day goes by that i dont ask for the best for all of you still waiting.</p>

<p>Are all the acceptances out for AEM yet? If you didn't receive a letter by now, are you rejected?</p>

<p>just because you didn't get a letter finance doesn't mean you're rejected... just be patient good luck!</p>

<p>after looking here am i the only one to notice that the people getting in private endowed schools have higher standardized test scores than the applicants who got into the state funded ones? </p>

<p>just an obeservation (not trying to make a point or anything)</p>

<p>"...the people getting in private endowed schools have higher standardized test..."</p>

<p>after also observing i don't know what you're seeing and talking about?</p>
