<p>livenotonevil, probably why you didn’t get in.</p>
<p>It would be awesome if the website worked for me :/</p>
<p>waitlisted. womp womp. seems like that’s what they did to everyone.</p>
<p>Wait list. Just as a note, please don’t accept your spot on Emory’s wait list unless you are serious about going. I would love to go to Emory!</p>
<p>Accepted =)</p>
<p>yeah I’ve been trying to load the page for 30 minutes</p>
<p>Rejected with a 4.2 weighted gpa and a 2340 on my SATs. Make sense to anybody else?</p>
<p>waitlisted. So WL at both Oxford and Emory. I guess I am kind of happy, I was expecting a rejection letter from Emory.</p>
<p>@above Sorry dude, my stats are worse then yours. I know how it feels though. When I was WLed by Emory and Oxford (both schools where I should have been accepted), I was really mad and worried. I’ve come to realize college decisions are random.</p>
<p>Does the financial aid info for Oxford include scholarship money (not Oxford Scholar, but other)? Or does that come separately?</p>
<p>2200 SAT. 3.7 GPA. super awesome extracurriculars and good essays.
why did i get wait listed…</p>
<p>So… since everyone had been waitlisted, I am guessing it will be a very competitive waitlist.</p>
<p>Waitlisted at Emory. Accepted at Oxford.
2070 SAT
3.9 GPA
11 APs
Unremarkable ECs</p>
<p>Question! Does anyone know where financial aid information is for Oxford? I’d love to attend provided I had the funds!</p>
