Decided to go RD so that I can compare Financial Aid – did Critical Inquiry on ‘Vegucation.’ 
Applied EDII and I’m so anxious… I did the Critical Inquiry prompt and wrote about Orange is The New Black and how tv affects the perception of the Federal Prison System!
Less than three weeks until decisions, guys! AHHH!
lol

ED2 decisions were just mailed out.
Hmmm. ED1 decisions were on the portal. Seems strange to mail ED2.
They’re in the portal now too!
Congratulations to everyone who was admitted!
Accepted wow.
Rejected.
I can post stats if anyone cares.
@Rathination
I’m really sorry, know how that feels. Stats would be great.
Accepted too!!! It feels so surreal right now: I’m a proud Sagehen!
Congratulations to those who were also accepted, and to those who weren’t: it’s okay! You guys are awesome, smart people and will all end up somewhere super good and fitting for you!!! 
I was rejected early in the fall and I know the feeling sucks, but just remember that college acceptance letters doesn’t define who you are. AT ALL.
Does anyone know why ED2 came out yesterday? I was honestly shocked when I logged onto my portal because I was expecting to receive them on 2/15.
Ya I was so surprised! Congrats @nanajojo15 and everyone else!!! Can’t wait!!
@couplemoreweeks I’ll copy and paste the stuff from my chance thread.
I’m an Indian that was born in India. My family got really lucky and received American visas, so we moved to the United States. We have been attempting to become citizens for the past 13-14 years, but circumstances outside of our control kept us from receiving it. I’m currently undocumented, and this was the main topic for a lot of my essays.
I sent in my QB app, which I think was weaker than my Common App. That might have something to do with the rejection, but who knows

@swisscat77 are you accepted too?
I just got accepted!!! I got the email at my friend’s birthday dinner and starting sobbing in front of everyone hahahaha.
I can post stats if people are interested. But seriously, congratulations to everyone who was accepted!! I’m so excited to meet all of you.
For those of you who weren’t accepted, don’t let the decision affect you - I was talking to a freshman at Pomona and he told me that last year they accepted too many people and more people enrolled than expected, so they had to cut down acceptances this year. I’m sure you’re all absolutely amazing people and will be accepted to top-notch schools in the coming months.
@nanajojo15 Ya!!!
@swisscat77 @marilynabigail haha congrats guys! Btw does anyone know why they came out yesterday? 0.o I’m still really curious…
