Decisions come out Wednesday MST! Time to start a thread.
Decision: Denied:
SAT/ACT: 33
GPA: around a 3.6-3.7/4 unweighted
IB/AP: IB Biology HL, IB Psychology HL, IB Geography HL, IB English Literature A SL, IB Spanish B SL, IB Math SL
I was deferred and didn’t really expect a rejection but it’s fine !
@alinazagitova same here. I got deferred EA. I’m a full IB student
I got waitlisted! Kinda stings but I’ve already gotten some acceptances so it’s not so bad as a denial. Guess I’ll post my stats to help some others out:
ACT: 32
GPA: 3.97 unweighted / 4.5 weighted
2 years of full concurrent enrollment at UC Denver
I was hoping for an acceptance but ya know, it is how it is.
daughter accepted RD into the Fall Away program, after deferred EA. You two IB students will get into some amazing places. at this level of selectivity, there is a randomness aspect.

I think what got me in was definately my relationship with my admissions officer. I flew out to see campus and hit it off w/ him when we met – if you can develop a friendship with your officer, even via email, it can make a huge difference!

Not really sure how I got in compared to some of the people that were waitlisted/ denied. However, I do think that my essays were extremely solid. My block-plan essay was about creating a research paper on Indonesian eco-tourism, using a location in Sumatra as a case study.
