RD Decisions?

<p>Yeah I got my mail five minutes ago and no letter from Oberlin! (I live in IL btw.)
It should have been here if they mailed it on wed!</p>

<p>Rejected: business envelope, one page. :(</p>

<p>YIPPEEEEE accepted!!! god, i love oberlin so muchhhhh! just hope i can afford it, all they gave me was 7,000. oh wow oberlin and bard in the same day! it doesn’t get better than this!!!</p>

<p>Congratulations to all accepted students! Did any of international applicants get “admitted” email? I am talking about int’ls who didn’t get scholarships. I am an international applicant, and still haven’t gotten any notifications.</p>

<p>Rejected… Ohio wants nothing to do with me!</p>

<p>Admitted with $15,000 a year! Wooo! And same day, a letter from National Merit telling me I get $2,500! This is a good day for $$$.</p>

<p>Heard from seven of my colleges so far. Only one left. Probably my WIN streak will end with Brown, but I dunno if I even wanna go there if I get in, especially since Oberlin’s actually giving me MONEY…</p>

<p>StercusAccidit - I guess I’ll see you over at the Brown board during the next few days!</p>

<p>Why didn’t you come today, Oberlin?!?!</p>

<p>I might have a really exciting or really disappointing day tomorrow with Vassar and Oberlin…and maybe Swarthmore, but doubtful.</p>

<p>Accepted with 15,000 a year!!! I’m so excited!
I’ll be at the Brown board too ahha</p>

<p>This made my Wesleyan flat-out rejection feel a little bit better, I guess.</p>

<p>^^^</p>

<p>bananafish9: My D was also rejected today by Wesleyan, waitlisted at Lehigh, and accepted with a merit scholarship to Oberlin! Yes!!! </p>

<p>She also applied to Brown -like you- but if you can’t get into Wesleyan, how do you get into Brown? She’s not expecting good news.</p>

<p>Friend’s D was rejected from WES last year, is happily attending Brown. Go figure.</p>

<p>Accepted!
Regarding Wesleyan…I got wait-listed there. =P
And I still need to hear back from Brown ahaha.
We all seem to apply to similar schools, eh?</p>

<p>I got in with 12K per year
big envelope regular mail
boooyah</p>

<p>rejected Wesleyan ED - waitlist Oberlin! haha</p>

<p>weird: i just got rejected at wesleyan. quickly followed by an acceptance at oberlin with AMAZING financial aid that i really really really was not expecting. haha and i applied to brown too (like all the rest of you guys!) crazy.</p>

<p>i might have to turn down cal for this. im in utter shock.</p>

<p>^ Oberlin > Cal, easily.</p>

<p>ACCEPTED… in DC…international student … family contribution 10k
iam happy… cuz i have been getting rejection letter all day… even with the economcis downturn, Colgate is still devoted to funding for internationals
I am grateful</p>

<p>Got accepted today, surprise since I’m in California. (:</p>

<p>Still, not as excited as I wish I was. My parents already told me I had three fat envelopes, and none of the packages were that…great. And my Oberlin fin. aid wasn’t as generous as I had hoped for.</p>

<p>I think I’m coming to visit anyway. See if I like it enough to beg for more dough. :P</p>

<p>In</p>

<p>beyond excited</p>

<p>hell yes.</p>

<p>DS just got his acceptance letter today, along with a John F. Oberlin scholarship and amazing financial aid - wow! We are blown away! He is a little bit in shock over the great responses he’s had so far, but is also reserving judgment until he hears from the last few… He visited Oberlin and loved it – his only concern is if it’s too isolated, since he had been picturing college life in a city. Does anyone have any insights on this?</p>
