<p>@PrincessFaerie‌ lol so ready for this.</p>

<p>“Hope is the worst of evils, for it prolongs the torments of man.”</p>

<p>I applied, but I gave up a long time ago.
If I don’t get in, well, I never had any hope, so no dreams of mine will die today.
If I do get in (lol not happening (I’m not beating 5%)) then that’s great.</p>

<p>@UMTYMP2015‌ Hahaha. Well, I’m not as eloquent, but I feel you.</p>

<p>Has anyone heard? :/</p>

<p>Yeah, so nervous.</p>

<p>I think it said 5 PM PST, so I don’t think people’ll hear for a few hours more.</p>

<p>I think they call those who are accepted a bit earlier</p>

<p>I’m beyond nervous because I just heard from my backup that they canceled the program all together this year because of the lack of funds… I should definitely have applied for more programs earlier. Definitely lacked the foresight.
I’m also from the mid-west… I guess the chances are really not looking very good for me. Hope is too dangerous. It’ll ruin me.</p>

<p>I’m from the Midwest too. so we have a 0.7% chance of making the program</p>

<p>0.7%
wow
That’s a relief
and here i was, mulling over what i believed to be a ‘low’ acceptance rate
lol</p>

<p>0.7 percent… I don’t think I can quite fathom that. Here’s to all our hopes and dreams.</p>

<p>(Oh, it’s 5pm in my time zone already…)</p>

<p>It’s 5 pm PST</p>

<p>Lol watch none of us get in ;(</p>

<p>well I kind of assumed there were about 1450 applicants and people have been saying ~10 ppl make it out of area so I got a bit less than .7%</p>

<p>I don’t think they have a quota for out of area, though. You have a better shot than that</p>

<p>hugs.</p>

<p>I need to do something productive between now and then so I can take my mind off of this instead of obsessively checking everything…</p>

<p>I don’t think its that theres a .7 acceptance rate for midwest people-thats probably just because any people don’t apply from the midwest so theres literally just not as many people in the program that accepted. As long as you provide proof of housing, it wouldn’t matter to them either way, logically. And yeah same @Nobody426 i haven’t been able to do anything since like yesterday. </p>

<p>Are you all guys? Any girls here?</p>

<p>no we’re all guys.</p>
