Yeah, I know what you guys mean. Chances are that I won’t get off the wait-list and even if I do they’re unlikely to give me enough aid to go. Which, mind you, doesn’t matter if Smith accepts me. 
Smith is by far the better option for me. I told myself last summer that if I got a 4.0 and worked hard on my ECs that everything would work out. I really hope I wasn’t being too naive.
How are you guys feeling now? Confident? Unsure?
I’m so nervous! My hs record and ACTs were good, and I’m pretty confident that I would have been admitted to Smith if I applied last year, but my college grades haven’t been perfect. I have mostly B+s but I have a C+ in intensive Russian language that I’m super nervous about. But then again these are Kenyon grades.
I also haven’t shown as much interest in Smith as I would like. I emailed a lot of people about an interview but they didn’t get back to me. But my essay was good I think, so I don’t know.
I’m more confident about my Wellesley app because I got the chance to interview and it went really well. Plus there’s a professor here who’s an alum and a former Wellesley professor, and she wrote admissions saying that I was a good candidate 
And Bryn Mawr accepted me last year so I’m not as worried about that either.
Do you think there are any indicators of who got in on our pages yet?

Kind of just guessing here but my instinct tells me probably not. I’m assuming the gap between first-year alerts and transfer alerts has to do with actually inputting this stuff into bannerweb or w/e. They’ll probably put our notifications in there on Monday night and then enable them on Tuesday. Something like that. Nothing has changed on my bannerweb, at least.
Yeah I’m so ready to know I;m kind of grasping at straws,
Wow, it feels so crazy seeing the first-years report their results and knowing we’ll be doing the same on Tuesday. I’ve waited so long for this moment that it seems unreal that it’s actually here. After getting wait-listed at MHC, I just got the feeling that Smith rejected me.
C’mon, March 31st…
I’m sure you’ll get in!
I just cannot spend another semester at my current school. I’ll be over the moon happy if I get into Smith or Wellesley.
I just have to remind myself that it’s kind of petty to get so wrapped up in things. You’re a freshman too, right? If so, we still have a whole 'nother year to apply to more schools.
If I don’t get in, I’m just going to apply again for Spring 2016 (along with a wider range of colleges, probably).
yep I’m a rising sophomore! I’m going to apply to smith and wellesley again in the spring (worst case scenario) and then maybe bryn mawr and barnard if that doesn’t work.
I don’t know, if I don’t get into my preferred schools I don’t know what I’ll do.
Hey everyone! I submitted everything around Feburary 1st however I didn’t submit my midterm report until around the 20th of March. Do you still think I’ll hear back around the 31st?
Probably not- they needed everything by early march, I got an email about it.
Can’t say for sure, but I figure they put you in the second batch of applicants. But maybe not. If you call them on Monday and ask, they’ll probably tell you which group you’re in.
Hey, so am I the only who feels like people on CC are rarely rejected as Smith transfers? After looking through all of the old threads, I realized I’ve only ever seen a handful of people actually get turned down (and most of them are international transfers). Oh wow, I’ll feel so lonely if I’m rejected haha.
we can’t be the disappointments of CC!
Am I the only one who compulsively reads their Common App?
Gosh, my essays were so bad, I feel. I worked pretty hard on them, but now that I look back, they just seem cheesy and annoying. 
My heart is pounding in anticipation for tomorrow. Hoping for good news. One last wish of good luck for everyone.
I want to get in so badly I can’t wait
What time do you think they’ll release the decision?
I thought 6:00PM
