<p>I think whoever was deferred from Huntsman has a decent chance at Wharton–I mean if you don’t get rejected from Huntsman you must be pretty amazing. </p>
<p>Haha, I was not deferred from Huntsman btw.</p>
<p>openupsayrah: LOL I know what Hogwarts is, I just assumed it was slang for some university. Does it really just mean Hogwarts? lol</p>
<p>I was deferred from Huntsman =/ but I applied to CAS as my alternate…</p>
<p>I don’t think it makes too much difference. It seems like everyone who got deferred was really strong this year!</p>
<p>We have the same chance as international kids. Probably a bit more since the overall intl acceptance rate is 10% (probably a bit higher for ED, lower for RD) if that makes anybody feel better lol</p>
<p>not me 
I’m an international student, deferred from wharton… what chances does that leave me?.. 4-5%?</p>
<p>You never know with Penn judging from the ED acceptance thread haha…3 months of waiting ahead. You know when I checked, getting deferred never even crossed my mind. I either thought I would get rejected or accepted because I knew I didn’t want to wait until April…fail haha</p>
<p>I was deferred Huntsman, but I don’t think I’ll get into Wharton… why do you think that rbghwt?</p>
<p>The couple of people I know who were deferred from Huntsman and then didn’t get in got into Wharton, so if you didn’t get rejected from Huntsman to start with you’re probably gonna be a very appealing applicant to Wharton (if Huntsman doesn’t work out).</p>
<p>Has anyone ever heard of a Huntsman deferred applicant getting into Huntsman? I feel like that’s kinda out of question for some reason…I’ve looked and looked, and I couldn’t find anyone on the forum to testify to that =/</p>
<p>Oh well. I’d be BEYOND happy to attend CAS as well…if only that was a possibility :)</p>
<p>I think you must have a great shot at CAS hardworker :)</p>
<p>Do you guys think it’s terrible if I’ll be pretty upset if I get rejected and my friend gets in RD? She got rejected from her top choice (Yale SCEA) and now Penn is her new top choice. I want her to be happy and go to a great school, it will just hurt if it turns out to be Penn. To make it worse, we’re almost identical in terms of stats. Haha. Oh and I would NEVER tell her this. In fact, I’d never tell anyone I know this…hence me asking on CC…haha, I even feel terrible for asking.</p>
<p>I dunno rbghwt, I feel like I won’t get into Wharton because I don’t have good enough test scores or an amazingly high GPA. whatever, i’m sort of losing hope for Penn. I guess it will make rejection easier.</p>
<p>Anyway, about your friend. If it was me, I would be *<strong><em>ed for a while and to be honest, but eventually they will realize it and won’t bring it up around you. This happened with my brother. At the other big high school in my town, 3 kids got into Stanford that had lower stats and applied RD so my brother was *</em></strong>ED. He actually tried fighting one of them when he was drunk… nevermind. ANYWAY, he ended up being completely happy at the school he’s at now and is so thankful he isn’t at Stanford.
Don’t worry about it, if you don’t get in it’s for a reason and I guarantee you will be happy where you end up. I know it’s really hard to hear this now, but it will come. I know when I didn’t get into Penn ED, I was upset ( i was expecting rejection, but in the back of my mind i was hoping for acceptance), but I found some other schools that are still hard to get into, challenging coursework and awesome programs that I know I will love too. And i’m sure this will happen to you too.
I know this is a ton of rambling, but hopefully you get my point. Good luck man</p>
<p>No, it’s not terrible. As much as people like us (who may be in your situation) may deny it, we secretly believe that if we can’t have something, then it would only be fair that no one else did . Well maybe i didnt pinpoint your thoughts exactly, but it’s natural to feel jealous during the college admissions process. I’m one of those people. And hey, you’re honest enough to put it all out on the internet ;-)</p>
<p>I totally feel ya. </p>
<p>I know some other people now who are applying RD from my school and I can’t even imagine how I’d feel if they got accepted and I didn’t after applying ED.</p>
<p>Ugh. Oh well, hopeful, you’re right…sometimes things happen for the best :)</p>
<p>Good luck guys. Merry Christmas!!! Hope you guys aren’t frantically finishing essays like I am! lol.</p>
<p>Haha, thanks guys. Good to know I’m not alone :P</p>
<p>The past couple of days this is all I’ve been able to think about. My parents even told me today that I need to just get over it and that it probably won’t happen. I decided I’ll let myself feel like crap until 2010, and then I’ll start moving on so when April comes around if I miraculously do get in, it will be a pleasant surprise. </p>
<p>Merry Christmas to you too! Luckily I finished all my applications before Dec. 11th, but I will tell you this: they were all done half-heartedly, so I went back and worked on them some (in fact I’m doing my last one right now haha). I’m still not ready to think about what my next choice would be, but I’m sure we’ll all get there! At the most it would take one semester at a different school I think (and that would be an extreme case). Hopefully some of us will get in RD though :)</p>
<p>^wait… don’t you need to be deferred by both schools to be deferred from Huntsman?</p>
<p>That’s a good question, I don’t know the answer though haha!</p>
<p>What are people’s second choice schools after Penn? I was hoping I wouldn’t have to think about it but I guess we have to very seriously now haha</p>
<p>Oh hey does anybody know if we’re allowed to send in different essays, such as an alternate pg. 217?</p>
<p>depressed.</p>
<p>When i called they said you were different from Huntsman, but I don’t understand how that one kid got into Wharton but a maybe at Huntsman… doesn’t Wharton get your application only if you didn’t get into Huntsman…</p>
<p>openupsayrah: me too, all this Christmas cheer is depressing haha</p>
