Stanford Class of 2017 RD Discussion

<p>Welcome there, mleahkelsea!</p>

<p>I applied REA and was deferred… Hello RD!</p>

<p>I’m so nervous for decisions… I’m already stressing and it’s January.</p>

<p>Hi clariebear29!</p>

<p>Haha, me too. This is terrible.</p>

<p>Deferral is somewhat pleasant news. Considering 15% of deferred students are accepted, in contrast to RD average acceptance rate of 5%. You guys probably have much better shot then lot of RD applicants</p>

<p>It’s just painful to be deferred and have to wait until April.</p>

<p>So where are y’all from? Is Stanford a long distance from y’all? And is anyone else nervous about being so far away from home???</p>

<p>I’m from California, so its not that far. I have never been there though.</p>

<p>Im from Arizona, not too far from Cali so I won’t feel homesick. I will just have to get used to the cool California weather :)</p>

<p>I’m from Mississippi! So ready to be in Cali and at Stanford (hopefully). Will most likely be rejected but I guess it’s worth a shot</p>

<p>From SoCal, so not far at all.</p>

<p>^ditto. I’m from SoCal as well.</p>

<p>I’m from Oklahoma, but I’m seriously in love with the West Coast. I’m from Canada originally anyways.</p>

<p>Hey, party people! </p>

<p>@clairebear, @cantconcentrate…deferred as well. Remember how absolutely insane our REA thread went those last couple of weeks? It’s going to be a full-out frenzy on here since there are so many more RD applicants.</p>

<p>So, in the deferred letter, it mentioned that results will come out late March? Do you think they’ll release the official release day in advance?</p>

<p>(Also: I’m from TEXAS YEE-HAW)</p>

<p>I actually applied to Yale EA, not Stanford, haha. :D</p>

<p>But… If they follow the Ivies, it should be ~March 28th.</p>

<p>I’m from Atlanta!</p>

<p>I’ve always wondered how state residency affects admissions.</p>

<p>me too! i wonder if it’s an advantage to be from a state that has very little applicants…hmmm…</p>

<p>CO here… Going to commit to Umich once my Stanford rejection letter arrives ;)</p>

<p>I’m from Texas too! How exciting!</p>
