<p>Sigh. Two waitlists here as well (in addition to some acceptances with insufficient finaid), and I need a shiny ray of hope.</p>
<p>Well I know that you guys are all international students, but as for financial aid, my package was fantastic. I found out on the 20th and have been thrilled. Go Mac '13!</p>
<p>Good luck guys. Hope to see you all next year!</p>
<p>I’m so happy for you m.c.10!
and thanks :)</p>
<p>m.c. 10, thanks for the encouragement, it means a lot to us internationals 
Congratulations on your Mac admission! That’s great, I’m sure you are going to have a fantastic time! Indeed, hope to see you next year!</p>
<p>yeah thanks m.c.10</p>
<p>while we internationals are waiting, lets introduce ourselves. where are all u guys from?</p>
<p>im from Pakistan :)</p>
<p>oh and btw i asked my counselor today, apparently mac is known for giving quite a few good aid packages to internationals. so here is to hoping we are all successful :D</p>
<p>wouldn’t that be awesome if we all were in?? happy thought …we SHOULD get extra points for being on here and caring so much…</p>
<p>anyways, my screen name should make it obvious, but specifically I’m from near Toronto</p>
<p>I’m from Sweden.
^^</p>
<p>i’m really nervous what if we dont get the decisions today? their workday will be over in a couple of hours after all.</p>
<p>well remember that North America is now on daylight time (don’t know if you guys do that overseas?) anyways, there’s three hours left til 5 in St Paul…but I agree it is somewhat concerning :S</p>
<p>Bulgaria here Well, Mac is the only school I haven’t heard from and a personal favorite for a long time… so I’m really anxious. Some of my decisions from Northeastern colleges arrived by e-mail at like 1 am in the morning here, which would be 5 pm US time (with daylight and everything considered), so we shouldn’t lose any hope. And I know that MIT, for instance, announced their decisions at 8 pm US time.</p>
<p>Haha, i’m thinking Michigan time. I forgot there’s a time difference.</p>
<p>yes, I’ve heard of 5 pm emails too…</p>
<p>oh snap. i can’t stay up that long. i have a big math test tomorrow. and if i check my email in the morning and i get rejected, i’ll be too upset to take the test. what a dilemma.</p>
<p>i’m from Bulgaria, too… It certainly is a turbulent time… But i’m sure everyone will find their niche :)</p>
<p>Well if anyone could confirm the time, it’d be great. or even the date…i mean do we know for sure that it is 31?</p>
<p>It says the 30th on the website.
Time. we have no clue.

<p>Yep, that feeling. I found out that I’m equally incapable of school work after I get an acceptance or a rejection alike. I think you’re ready for that test and whatever the decision is (if we get to know by tomorrow) – you’ll be well motivated to take it ;)</p>
<p>I’m staying maybe for an hour more, and then catching on my zz’s if I can go without waking up in the middle of night, thinking of Mac’s decision. Ahh… the last hours of waiting are the hardest ones.</p>
<p>so i couldnt take waiting too much and i called up the macalester admissions. i asked are the decisions coming out and she said ‘No. they are coming out by april 1st’</p>
<p><em>gasp</em>
i hope that is not true, and its just some way of them trying to keep us all guessing 
i remember my brandeis decision came out at 3 am Pakistan time, and Sarah Lawrence at 7 am, its almost 1 am here so i am not losing hope though!!
good luck to everyone</p>
<p>WHAAAAAAT?!
they changed it?!</p>
<p>Ouch … Prospec, thanks for the info and the call. I really wished I could see the decision before going to bed, I’m tired of all waiting. Hope dies last, though. </p>
<p>Everything will turn out fine soon, guys.</p>
