<p>I really hope that I don’t meet the wait list this time around… I was deferred from REA but I hope that being a GMS finalist will help me out a little haha</p>

[physicsnut1]

[jsungoh]

<p>Applied regular, and also am hoping that GMS Finalist helps me too ._. lol</p>

[Purepecha9510]

[FrenchSilkPie]

<p>

I really hope that I don’t meet the wait list this time around… I was deferred from REA but I hope that being a GMS finalist will help me out a little haha

</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure read someplace that Stanford does not waitlist students were waitlisted in REA…</p>

<p>Good luck everyone! 2 more days!</p>

[wizards]

<p>There’s a small asterisk on some of their informational handouts that say that applicants that apply REA are not eligible for the wait list.</p>

[invisibleorange]

<p>What about vibes and karma and all that? I think imagining that you will get in helps.</p>

An Update on Admission Decisions
March 24, 2011</p>

<p>Freshman applicants should read this update on the release of decisions from the Director of Admission.</p>

<p>The Office of Undergraduate Admission is expected to complete its evaluation and selection process in the next few days. As a result, applicants are asked to refrain from submitting any new updates, notifications of awards or honors, and letters of recommendation. We will no longer be able to consider any new materials sent from this point forward.</p>

<p>We are still on schedule to release all freshman admission decisions on Friday, April 1 after 3pm (Pacific Time). All admission decisions will be sent via email from <a href=“mailto:admission@stanford.edu”>admission@stanford.edu</a> and will be signed by Richard Shaw, Dean of Undergraduate Admission and Financial Aid. Decisions will not be posted on any Stanford Web site and only applicants offered admission will be sent any information by mail. Admitted students will be mailed a packet of materials (including their official offer of admission letter). All other decisions will be sent to students via email — including those students offered a space on our waiting list. All admission decisions will be final and given the highly selective nature of our process, we cannot consider any appeals whatsoever. We never, ever reverse an admission decision once it has been officially rendered.</p>

<p>Between now and April 1, please understand that we will not provide any additional information about the release of admission decisions by phone and we will not release any admission decisions over the phone under any circumstances, with the exception of students who have not received their admission decisions beginning the week of April 4.</p>

<p>We have been truly humbled by this year’s selection process. We have tremendous respect for the students who put so much time and effort into their applications and who have worked so hard over the last several years to present us with incredibly compelling cases for consideration.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, roughly 94% of those who have applied will not be offered admission this year. We recognize how stressful this process can be for our applicants but we take great solace in knowing that any student who is even a candidate for admission to a place like Stanford will have wonderful college options, whether it be Stanford or another great university.
With great respect and best wishes to all of our candidates,
Bob</p>

<p>Bob Patterson
Director of Admission

<p>Oh no! I was so looking forward to getting another decision before next week. :(</p>

[Sleeet]

<p>Very interesting. I do realize that it says evaluations are expected to be finished in the next few days. However, the same “article” or announcement was released last year on the 19th of March. The decisions were still released early, though it was a week later (the 26th). I wouldn’t necessarily rule out tomorrow being the day.</p>

<p>EDIT: Also, as far-fetched as this may sound, read what is written in the post: “Unfortunately, roughly 94% of those who have applied will not be offered admission this year.”</p>

<p>Unless they are only a few (the number would have to be quite small) decisions yet to be made, then how would admissions already know that roughly 94% of those who applied won’t be accepted?</p>

<p>Then again, those last few decisions could simply be for waitlist applicants.</p>

<p>:confused:</p>

[Boyzrule]

<p>They did the same thing last year, then released a week early. They just want students to stop sending them extra stuff like new awards.</p>

[knt102000]

<p>@ Boyzrule: Yes, but they released that same message last year one week before decisions were announced…</p>

[kazala]

<p>i guess its 8 days now!</p>

[cfcpauls93]

<p>just as I was lowering my expectations…</p>

[curiosity33]

<p>Weird, I didn’t get that email.</p>

[chocotaco13]

<p>Well… this is great. I didn’t get an e-mail at all. hmmmm… anyways, I know that Im gonna get rejected cause I accidentally wrote Stanford was an Ivy League. </p>

<p><em>Pretty sad right</em>? Yeah, it was my best app too. Best of luck to you guys :)</p>
