Rsi 2012

<p>I was about to send in an update myself. It couldn’t be detrimental right? Why not send it in, I’m just saying a couple awards I’ve gotten since the deadline.</p>

<p>they probably already made decisions by now…but you can still give it a shot! who knows how they do things</p>

<p>heygirlhey13 is definitely right, unfortunately :/</p>

<p>Checking my email has become very stressful now…</p>

<p>I thought that letters came in the mail … do they come via email?</p>

<p>Regarding updating your application: It’s definitely too late by now for these decisions, but if it turns out that you’re waitlisted then it’s worth sending any updates.</p>

<p>@Fawrkes: If you’re rejected you get an email, but if you’re an alternate or accepted you get a letter. At least that’s how it worked last year</p>

<p>I sent an updated transcript along with other information a while back. However, I did so without notifying CEE or anything like that. Do any of you think that’s a huge problem? :/</p>

<p>I don’t think that its a problem, but wether or not it is, there is nothing you can do about it now (except blame your rejection on it if you get one). :slight_smile: Personaly, I am going to blame my rejection on a lazily writen teacher recomendation. Does anyone else have something prepared to blame their rejection on?</p>

<p>Not sending in my AP scores? I wrote that I’m an AP National Scholar, which means I haven’t gotten less than a 4 on my 8 ap tests (I’ve only gotten one actually), and they can see from my transcripts all the APs I’ve taken but I don’t know…</p>

<p>I think the best blame for all of us would be : There were better applicants :PP Hahahaha. I’m sure all of us are stellar students, but at the same time, I’m sure that there are those out there more stellar :/</p>

<p>Hey guys. RSI alum here. Just want to wish you all the best! Last year rejections were sent out by e-mail and they were sent on different days. Acceptances came in by snail mail; but it may be different this year (the whole application seems a bit different). I’m anxiously awaiting the results of my counselor application XD</p>

<p>I know CEE has every right to send out results how they wish, but I wish that it were a little more uniform and/or better communicated</p>

<p>theyre probably sending out the mail tomorrow! and emails a day later or something</p>

<p>@ iambenk : I’m totally with you. But understand that RSI is perhaps one of the most prestigious summer programs, receiving over 2000 applicants domestically and internationally. Establishing a set date for rejections, acceptances, or waitlists is near impossible. But don’t get me wrong, I wish it weren’t this way :stuck_out_tongue: Good luck again, guys, for the bajillionth time.</p>

<p>@iambenk how do folks take 8 APs by jr yr? I don’t think I stand a chance a chance just having taken 4 in my jr yr first sem and not taken any AP exam thus far…good luck all</p>

<p>@stanfordready: Ermmm I took two my freshman year (APUSH and comp sci A) and 6 my sophomore year (bio, chem, lang, euro, psych, and e sci). The last two were self study. Don’t worry about not having 8+ AP’s, according to collegeboard there’s only ~30 kids across the country with that many in our grade</p>

<p>@ iambenk : I wanted to avoid conceit, but join the club :smiley: I have 9 but with 2 4s :confused: There’s this girl in a school in my county that has 8 5s, but I was too scared to ask her ): Wow I probably sound like a conceited jerk. But honestly, I don’t think APs weight that much in the selection process for RSI hahah</p>

<p>Everyone knows that you can be as conceated as you want on the internet. No one here knows you, so its O.K. :). By the way, I don’t have a problem with a little bit of bragging so long as the person doing the braging actualy has something to brag about.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>More accurately: there were too many good applicants. That’s the problem, really, there are just far more than 50 qualified applicants and they have to choose somehow.</p>
