<p>12 has always been my favorite number 12/12/12</p>

<p>well good luck to you^ that would be an amazing birthday gift!</p>

<p>@Obbypen Nothing could make your birthday more exhilarating lol</p>

<p>So guys, how’s everyone doing? Panicking? Stressing? Excited? All of the above? Haha. Anyone getting calmer by the day like me? </p>

<p>Wednesday should be an interesting day. The one thing I’ve thought most about is how I would react to an acceptance/deferral/rejection. We’ll see how it turns out in a couple of days.</p>

<p>Heh yeah it has the potential of being the best birthday I’ve had. I was afraid when tha date was moved to the 12th but like others have mentioned, I have just grown to accept it. Hope to hear from you guys in the following days, you guys have very interesting conversations!</p>

<p>I have a question. Did anyone else receive the email regarding the $400 enrollment deposit waiver for FA?</p>

<p>Obbypen YES and my friend too! At first I was excited thinking it implied acceptance, but now I’m not so sure…</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>First off, congrats!!! :slight_smile: This probably signifies that you were accepted. Why else would you need an enrollment deposit??? </p>

<p>Second, can you explain what this is? Are all accepted students supposed to pay a $400 enrollment deposit? Or just students who receive fin aid?</p>

<p>Wait what does this mean? I didn’t get any such email…</p>

<p>It was for financial aid applicants who qualified. Basically the email said that they were waiving the $400 enrollment deposit, since quite frankly we can’t afford that. But idk, it seems like quite a few people got it :frowning: Maybe it was some sort of automated reply?</p>

<p>I’ll post the exact words.</p>

<p>^^NO WAY!!! That’s awesome for you :slight_smile: It would be silly to waive the enrollment deposit for rejected applicants, no?</p>

<p>^That would be much appreciated! Thank you :)</p>

<p>No email here, but I never filled out the FA entirely</p>

<p>Obby, you basically got in.</p>

<p>You’re in. Congrats.</p>

<p>I’ll continue by saying that it seems that if you do get accepted, that you will indeed need a ridiculous $400 deposit…</p>

<p>Wait stop are you joking? Can someone like actually verify this?</p>

<p>when did you get this email</p>

<p>Obby, if you don’t mind my asking - what’s your annual income?</p>

<p>Friday night</p>

<p>I doubt anyone can. It’s just a hypothesis. Honestly I think that the words seem very misleading and likely it’s just some very unwise diction. </p>

<p>I just was wondering if other FA applicants had gotten this earlier, and if they did, that I wasn’t the only lunatic misconstruing the words.</p>
