<p>waitlist 2200/33act all APclasses</p>

89

<p>Accepted to Emory. Waitlisted by oxford. What the f. OMG. God is real. God is good!</p>

90

<p>Ugh waitlisted to Emory, accepted to Oxford. SAT 2160, GPA oxford recalculated 3.9, class rank 25/211 as of now ,this year has been my best by far 4/6 classes AP and no grade below 97 and we don’t re rank mid year… ec’s are pretty solid. Haven’t decided if I will accept the wait list position, we’ll see. Rather disappointed right now.</p>

91

<p>It won’t even let me load the page.</p>

92

<p>Does Emory waitlist overqualified people? 33 ACT, 4.3 W GPA, 800 SAT Subjects…what’s up with this?</p>

93

<p>D accepted to Oxford, waitlisted at Emory, but really preferred Oxford. So this is good.</p>

<p>Congrats, detoidi! Maybe the others were right, and you were “overqualified.”</p>

94

<p>Waitlisted! I’m actually pretty satisfied with myself considering my stats are pretty low. 2070 SAT, 31 ACT, and a 3.8 weighted GPA. I also did not spend as much time as I should have on the application, so this kind of gives me hope! ^_^</p>

95

<p>It just says “Runtime Error”…</p>

96

<p>Accepted to Oxford!! Didn’t get accepted at Emory though. Very excited!! Does anyone know where to find financial aid packages?</p>

<p>Waitlisted to Emory. 2330 SAT, 4.15 GPA, taking all APs, NMF, 1st decile ranking, pretty solid extracurriculars…honestly I don’t get why I was waitlisted because I was accepted to several more selective schools. Emory wasn’t really my top choice so I guess that’s off my list…</p>
