rejects...mourn here....

<p>yea.....ofcourse.....me....hehe!! i share common colleges with almost every1 on CC and still......well....um tired of fussing.....this is the point where i have pretty much accepted my fate and its not so bad after all...i guess.....</p>

<p>bates will NOT EMAIL!! they have i think already sent out the decisions so i expect it sometime before 10th april...
they said tht if i dont get it even after 24th april....they will mail it to me...</p>

<p>:-L....why are some of them so mean!??!.....and what are we supposed to do until the 24th?!?!?...die?!?!?!..do you happen to know ab grinnell, as well?</p>

<p>Bard just emailed me--rejected :( Sigh, 'tis horrible having to ask for an almost full ride.</p>

<p>got into bates! they emailed...</p>

<p>Stanford - rejected</p>

<p>woebegone: neat job! :)</p>

<p>thanks! juz got the DHL packages from conn and bates together today! bates' finaid is generous too (at least gave me exactly what i asked for) but not as wow as conn...</p>

<p>well done again woebegone...</p>

<p>rishabh-sry man,keep faith...</p>

<p>3 more to go -</p>

<p>Princeton
TAMU
Middlebury</p>

<p>I am sure you will easily get into TAMU.
Pton and Middlebury will give a good news, too!
Rishabh, don't give up! Good luck!</p>

<p>thanks . . </p>

<p>only time will tell</p>

<p>Guys, i got rejected from everywhere except WPI. Should i go there or take a gap year and retake my SATs(1990), do a job etc ? I need your advice.</p>

<p>hey tweet....grinnell's out....wierd...they said they would update the online status on the 1st, istead they updated it on the 31st.....wasnt expecting it.....anyways....i got waitlisted-- story of my life....i was sure i'd get rejected tho...</p>

<p>and yeah waleed, if u think u can raise the score....definitely do that...getting into a good college depends a LOT on the SATs...altho yea i kno we have some sad stories here in CC, but i still have a hunch that any1 over 2100 will make it somewhere good....2100 is like a benchmark.....if u can make that.....yea i'd suggest the gap yr.....coz i know too many sad transfer stories too....and most of the time transfer students are not elligible for aid either...</p>

<p>wow, woebegone! <em>whistles</em> Niiice.</p>

<p>thanks melissa! :)</p>

<p>dont go by ur sat score totally mate, i got 2250 and have been rejected by everyone so far. 2 waitlists.</p>

<p>Add to Rishabh's comment:</p>

<p>I also got 2350, and I've been rejected by everyone so far, and 2 waitlists, and 2 coming up...</p>

<p>My advice: if you're going to take a gap year, spend it on improving your SAT scores, and also on improving your ECs... I know because I've taken a gap year... (Doesn't help you, though, huh?)</p>

<p>Yeah, but SAT scores are definitely less important than personal stuff. Besides ECs are more enjoyable to work for;)
Risha & enilit: I'll be praying for you. All the best:)</p>

<p>Denied to Grinnell...</p>

<p><em>sighs</em> All I gotta wait is 5 hours for Middlebury and mail next week for Bates and I'm done...</p>
