Stanford 2014 SCEAers

<p>Happy Halloween to you too. :D</p>

<p>Sent in everything. Probably should have revised my main essay a bit more (there were a few important pieces of information that I forgot), but otherwise, I’m happy with it all.</p>

<p>I bet the adcoms will convene at a Radisson during Thanksgiving Break, have a marathon essay session, and finish decisions within that week =P</p>

<p>I’m tweaking essays with final touches and will submit the app/supp tomorrow. So nervous, so excited, good luck everyone!! :)</p>

<p>hey guys I submitted it on Wednesday. introducing myself, so you wont get freaked out when I get all weird come Dec 15th.</p>

<p>Hey Guys !! sigh I’m submitting mine soon. ughhhh. this is so nerve wracking. Come December 15th I will get an heart attack.</p>

<p>I was wondering, has anyone received the link to whatever page is supposed to let us track the parts of our application? Because I would really like to know if my counselor actually sent in my transcript. :P</p>

<p>Also, just a tip for anyone who is as anxious as me: if you have a Gmail account, you can set it to selectively forward messages to your phone. Just go into “Settings,” then “Filters.” Create a new filter for “Has the words: Stanford.” Then click “Next Step” and set it to forward to your phone’s email address, which can be found about halfway down [this</a> page](<a href=“http://www.googletutor.com/2005/03/25/gmail-to-your-phone/]this”>http://www.googletutor.com/2005/03/25/gmail-to-your-phone/).</p>

<p>Not sure if anyone else is obsessive enough to use this, but it’s helped me to stop checking my email constantly. And I know that I will find out my decision the moment it comes, even if I’m at school/otherwise away from home. Quite a relief.</p>

<p>Haha, wow, thanks Starmie! That’s nifty. I didn’t know Gmail could do that.</p>

<p>(I haven’t submitted yet, so I’m not qualified to answer the first question. :))</p>

<p>I submitted on Friday and am preparing for the longest 45 days of my life…</p>

<p>By the way, Starmie, I haven’t received any email from Stanford yet, either.</p>

<p>idk about you guys but i kind of need somthing to pass the time from now until december 15…</p>

<p>i vote we keep this thread alive.</p>

<p>First topic: What did you all write your roommate essay about?</p>

<p>i went with music/I’m a drummer, yea i know how over done it is but i though i did a decent job of making it my own.</p>

<p>(45 Days to go…)</p>

<p>Are there any decisions made before dec 15? Or will everyone get the notification on the same day?</p>

<p>Same day I believe but I cant confirm by any means.</p>

<p>Hey everyone!</p>

<p>Add my name to this list of hopefuls because I applied early too. This is my first ever post on this website so I’ll really wish I could say an adage of epic proportions but I guess this will have to do: I think that every one here who applied early has something that many in this world don’t have and that’s confidence. Whether we get in or not, I know we are all destined to make out mark (hopefully in a positive way) in this world and I wish everyone luck! To be honest I’m only sounding optimistic to hide how anxious and nervous this entire college app process is making me. Good Luck to all!</p>

<p>a agree. keep it alive. we can all go crazy together :)</p>

<p>i had another post but idk where it went</p>

<p>sometimes decisions go out december 14, but they all go out together.
so either all on dec. 14 or all on dec. 15</p>

<p>Ahh, i just submitted… Now for the wait… XP</p>

<p>Quick question…</p>

<p>do you guys think Boise State is over/under rated in the current BCS standings?</p>

<p>I’m going to say Boise is underrated, but I’m biased because I think that school is awesome and have been following their sports semi-closely for a few years.</p>

<p>Keeping this thread alive is a good idea…we have to do something until the 15th.</p>

<p>Boise is overrated, their schedule is far easier than Iowa’s or TCU’s, hwoever, the Broncos deserve a BCS Bowl if they win out. I see that you asked about the BCS, and I was talking about the AP one, sorry :slight_smile: I haven’t seen the current BCS yet.</p>

<p>To stay on topic, am I the only one here applying here early from Europe? And, how many Europeans are there at Stanford? I guess that most of the internationals are Asian or Latino, but don’t really know.</p>

<p>On one hand, I agree. It’d be awesome to have all us SCEAers hang out until decisions come.
On the other hand… Time’s probably gonna pass a lot quicker if we just forget the whole thing! :wink: Haha.</p>

<p>Even so, I think I’m for keepin’ it alive.</p>
