**General Comments:
At least this way I can compare Financial Aid, plus I could snare an extra rec or 2 from my teachers this semester (MUCH better/closer relationship than last year). Hey, it could be worse. Keep your heads up everyone...life goes on. Que sera, sera. Oh, and I know someone currently at Dartmouth (and thriving) that was deferred ED, waitlisted RD, and finally accepted off the waitlist. There's hope!</p>
