<p>They changed it - I got in ED, and I was looking at the website today, and the RSVP date was changed to the 28th of March. I'm guessing all of you will find out before then! Heres the link Barnard</a> College Admissions</p>
<p>Hey everyone!
Just wanted to let you know your not the only one filled with anxiety. I developed this nervous twitch over the past 4 months during this college process. Its hard for me to concentrate in school and occasionally my digestion track clogs up. Is this happening to everyone else? Please reply... thanks
Sincerely,
Painful Process... literally! :-0</p>
<p>Wow, pekingnese09. You were accepted by UChicago? That's awesome! Congratulations.</p>
<p>LOL, I loved the prom discussion a few threads ago - it feels extra glamorous when I read it during the endless hours of boring work. Which dress did you choose, cantochickk? They're both beautiful - but like the other girls said, it depends on your skin color, I guess. We only had an "event" for senior year, where we basically just wore semi-fancy clothes we were for weddings and stuff.</p>
<p>CollegeBoundLiz - Yay, you just made my day! Finally! I really hope results are posted until Thursday, though, because I'm flying to London next week and I really hope to not have to be the kind of person who freaks out looking for a cyber-cafe. Who am I kidding, though? I'll totally do that. I mean, I'm waiting on about six colleges that very weekend LOL...</p>
<p>pekingnese09 - UChicago? Cool! Which of the impossible essays did you write?</p>
<p>squaregirl - Sorry about Smith's FA. I'll be biting my nails until I can check mine (stupid bosses blocked some URLs, damn them). Did you get too many loans? I thought Smith was usually generous <em>sigh</em>... but well, maybe that's a discussion for the Smith boards...</p>
<p>CollegeASAP - I've always been sorta naturally agitated, but March Of Doom certainly isn't helping My Poor Nerves (to quote Pride and Prejudice). Unfortunately, I'm not in HS anymore, otherwise I would always be distracted by homework and stuff... But I can totally see how the anxiety could hurt your concentration. I hope the fact that it's almost over offers you some comfort.</p>
<p>mp153 - I think I'll post here before I even open the email!</p>
<p>pepperimps: I want out of CA too! I only applied to east coast school. Eeep!</p>
<p>Omg, please don't let the letters come today. Today is my birthday and I do NOT need a rejection from Barnard on my birthday. Omg.</p>
<p>I've been lurking too long. Peeking in several times a day, looking in for every little update- I must join now!</p>
<p>I'll be even more depressed if I don't get in now because this is the best anxious applicants waiting for a decision thread out of all the college forums (Well, I've only looked into forums if I have applied to that school.) Don't believe me? Go look. I think only UChicago's comes close, but it still isn't as good as this thread. :)</p>
<p>I'm still waiting for decisions from Barnard, UChicago, Duke, Wellesley, Vassar, and Texas A&M.</p>
<p>Congrats to everyone who has already gotten into a school! I'm a little jealous because I haven't heard from any of my schools. I'm also getting a little peeved at Barnard because a lot of LACs have already sent out decisions. Ah, I can't stay mad at Barnard for long. </p>
<p>Well, at least we should be hearing by Friday at the latest if the RSVP date is Saturday. I wonder if they included some 'buffer' time because they notify by mail, so Friday at the absolute latest, but probably before? Or maybe Friday at the earliest and you RSVP as you get it? Maybe they sent out decisions today and that's why they updated the RSVP date today. And if they sent out decisions with overnight mail, we could be hearing as soon as tomorrow! <em>squee</em> I've thinking about this too hard! I should go and calm down...</p>
<p>@simply lily - Smith is operating under the same misimpression that Mt. Holyoke is, which is that my trust fund (my father left it to me) is still at the same value it was pre-recession. It's not, so I'm going to making a few choice phone calls if either schools becomes a real reality for me. </p>
<p>@pepperimps - Omg, so cool! I actually just found out about it recently and thought of applying to the actual college, but I had so many schools, I figured I'd just do a summer program there. It looks so cool!</p>
<p>squaregirl - Have you notified them about the change? I really hope they don't decide to suddenly forget their generous nature (at least Smith, I don't know the other school...), but how do you actually know what your FA is? Did you receive the letter?</p>
<p>melis19 - Welcome! And LOL, you really covered all options, huh?</p>
<p>happy birthday inasummertown.</p>
<p>Hey everyone, </p>
<p>when I pressed on the RSVP event link, it actually said
Beginning Friday evening, March 27, you will be able to log in and learn more about admitted student programs, and to RSVP for the event/s of your choice.</p>
<p>So i guessed they pushed it back another few hours hahaha </p>
<p>good luck to you all =)</p>
<p>& @ pepperimps, congrats. I've been rejected from many of the UC's i expected to get into, probably due to the recession. So I'm really hoping I can get into Barnard and get away from CA!</p>
<p>Also, if any of you get a chance, please take a few minutes to chance me. I started a new thread a couple of days ago but so far no one has said anything and I've been really nervous! So it would help a lot. Thanks.</p>
<p>i wish barnard would let us know when we can expect our letters--at least i got an email from columbia letting me know that i could expect my decision (read: rejection) by the thirty-first. i know that all of the letters have to be out by april, but i just want an email or something so i'll know that they haven't forgotten about that whole admissions thing.</p>
<p>thanks, Carothetaro!</p>
<p>Whew, no mail today! Maybe tomorrow...</p>
<p>Accepted: UCONN, UMASS, WCSU, Northeastern
Waiting on: Barnard(!) , BU, American, SUNY-Purchase</p>
<ul>
<li>I probably have the lowest stats of anyone in this thread, really. but i still applied to Barnard <em>sigh</em></li>
</ul>
<p>I highly doubt that, but at this rate we may explode into a cloud of anxiety before knowing because OH MY GOD! WHEN! ARE THE LETTERS! SENT?! It's funny that it'll probably be the 26th (a popular date, apparently), but it's ten times more nerve-wracking becuse they just won't tell us!</p>
<p>Happy birthday, inasummertown! </p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>So...I got rejected from Sarah Lawrence today, which I expected on some level but, at the same time, I thought I really fit the school because of my love of writing and learning for the sake of learning. <em>shrugs</em> I called the admissions office to ask why I was rejected, and someone is going to call me back. I wonder what they're going to say, and I really hope it doesn't hurt :/</p>
<p>Thank you etched! The cake is lovely, looks yummy!</p>
<p>Bummer! That's too bad about Sarah Lawrence. Maybe they'll call you back and say it's because Barnard's already dibbs you. (I'm fully aware that this is NOT how things work but hey, a girl can dream) :)</p>
<p>Happy Birthday inasummertown! :)</p>
<p>foreverpetals--O.O</p>
<p>etched--They didn't deserve you.</p>
<p>Happy birthday, inasummertown! It's my dad's birthday today, too.</p>
<p>etched- I wouldn't read too much into it, honestly. I visited SLC (though I ended up not applying) and my tour guide volunteered in admissions. She said that they're so weird in the way they admit that it means nothing about you if you don't get in. You're still incredible :)<br>
Also, I knew you could call but I never knew anyone who did. I kind of want to call Macalester now and see if I was correct about why I was waitlisted.</p>

<p>This is the orientation guide for this year. I was just reading it, although that probably was not a good idea..Now this has increased my eagerness to go because it sounds so exciting, and all my excitement will be squashed if I don't get in :(</p>
