<p>A lot of people in my grade are going to OSU. I swear, every other high schooler in the state of Ohio wants to go to OSU. I seriously don't get it but whatever. Most people at my school don't bother applying to selective schools. But this year one girl got into Vanderbilt EA and one kid (possible robot?) is waiting on responses from Ivies; he applied to all the Ivies.</p>
<p>This weekend, I found out I got a huge scholarship from Tulane. It's exciting, but I'd still choose Barnard as long as I got a half-way decent financial aid offer :]</p>
<p>brandnewstate--me too on Tulane. I'm kinda psyched~ But I agree, I'd turn it down in a heartbeat if Barnard or one of my other higher choice colleges gave me half-way decent fa. </p>
<p>Ahh I just finished working out. I feel so good! I thought...what better way of making me feel good that talking about Barnard? Haha.</p>
<p>So do you guys think we'll get our decisions this week?? Alot of kids at my school have started hearing from places RD. Its getting annoying because I haven't heard from anywhere for like two months.</p>
<p>Barnard has started mailing decisions as of today. If you don't hear from them between this week or next, you should call the admissions office.</p>
<p>I went to the beach today. Well, I use the term beach loosely. My parents pay for a membership at a beachfront resort. We get to use their facilities, etc. So, since I hate the beach, I laid by the pool with one of my friends and tried to get tan for prom. Our mission was VERY successful, and we're going again next Sunday. As excited as I am to have actual winter weather wherever I go next year, I'll probably miss being able to go swimming in March.</p>
<p>inasummertown- I have a HUGE family, and whenever we get together they ask me. And every time I give the same answer. So annoying.</p>
<p>Since I applied to barnard through a special program, I got an interview. People who were interviewed would get their decisions in the first week of april or maybe on april 2nd. seriously now that I think about my interview again, I realized how horrible I've done. I told her so many negative things about myself...IMPULSIVE..When asked about how a stranger would describe me, I said QUIET..sometimes SHY...and i told her that people refer to me as the really skinny asian girl. :( My friends are all saying that I could have given her much better adjectives. gosh I'm already frustrated that I have to wait April. but now im just devastated that I did so badly.</p>
<p>I was supposed to find out about macaulay honors by today the latest(whether it's a rejection or acceptance) but I didn't get ANYTHING from them. I already got a huge pimple next to my lip from all this stress :(</p>
<p>I'm so nervous. I can't believe decisions have been mailed out. My stats are good, but I found out about Barnard really late in the game and decided I wanted to apply in mid-December, so I never had the opportunity for an interview. The more I find out more about Barnard, the more I really like it and it's at the top of my list. I feel like I'll be rejected because I didn't show enough interest. My essays were okay, but with more time, I could have done better. The prospect of living in NYC appeals to me more everday. The only other school in NYC I applied to is Fordham and they really didn't give me enough aid, so I don't think I will be able to afford it. I know Barnard is better with FA. This is really nerve racking. :( </p>
<p>Sorry for the rant. I just had to get that out.</p>
<p>I live in PA, so maybe I'll be getting my letter early this week.</p>
<p>mp153: I have a HUGE family too! Most of them live in San Diego (where I live) but all the ones who don't live here flew in for the weekend. Several of my cousins live in NY which is even more incentive for me to want to go to Barnard. </p>
<p>!!!!! <-----Me freaking out.</p>
<p>This week? That's too soon! I'm not ready for them to tell me they don't want me!! :( At least with not knowing I can still sometimes dream of going there in between bouts of freaking out!!!</p>
