OFFICIAL, OFFICIAL RD DECISIONS - Barnard '14

<p>apaprently there was a system failure so i’m not sure if i was actually accepted or not…</p>

<p>Did you get a letter or an email?!</p>

<p>Oh just kidding i think everyone accesses that…guess we still have to wait…</p>

<p>The accepted student link has been added to their webpage. That link is available to everyone. You can see the links for those on the waiting list and for transfer applicants to track their applications–that doesn’t mean they all apply to you. I think domestic applicants are just going to have to wait for that letter. Good luck!</p>

<p>I was able to log into the admitted students web page, but I was waitlisted. They have since taken it down.</p>

<p>Poooooooooooop D:</p>

<p>There seem to be postings that people received snail mail waitlists and rejections. I haven’t seen a post yet of someone that was accepted. We live 1/2 hour from Barnard and did not receive anything today. Is that a good sign or a bad one?</p>

<p>NJ Mom of 2, I know people from NYC who got acceptances today.</p>

<p>I think I got waitlisted b/c I got a C on my college class… midyear report was otherwise good… 95 average for all my high school classes.</p>

<p>CONGRATS to everyone who got in! I spoke to the admissions officer who read my app and she said that this was the most competitive applicant pool ever! Be proud!</p>

<p>I just got rejected… I’m really bummed out. It’s been great talking to you all though. Congratz to those to be accepted and good luck to those waitlisted!</p>

<p>just got admitted by Barnard. I am an international applicant from China and they sent me decision by email</p>

<p>If I live in PA, will I get the letter by Saturday?</p>

<p>I checked my mailbox about 3 times since I came home. Just checked it gain…Accepted! </p>

<p>Good luck guys. Either way, we’ll all be fine. I live in New York City by the way.</p>

<p>Determind15: can you take a picture of the envelope or something so I know what to look for IF I get in? Or describing the envelope would be good.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Spiritual: BIG, express-mail size flat envelope=“in”
Little, skinny envelope = “sorry”</p>

<p>i need to find out already. this waiting is killing me; especially knowing that people in nyc got it today. that means i, from nj, could potentially get it tomorrow. if not, that could mean i’m A: rejected B: waitlisted. EITHER WAY, mail or not, I’LL KNOW!</p>

<p>omg.</p>

<p>Yeah, as calmom said, it’s a think, long,thin cardboard express mail (red, white, and blue–U.S Postal colors).</p>

<p>I would take a pic. if I knew where my camera charger was. I’ll try to google it and post it.</p>

<p>Similar to the first package in the picture.</p>

<p>Hey Determind15, can you post your stats?</p>
