Stanford Class of 2017 RD Discussion

<p>Aerobug idk its some sort of glitch from yesterdays overload. see how all the page numbers are listed out at the bottom?</p>

<p>Illimani emails start going out at 3 PM stanford time (and the US is in daylight savings time so I think it’s PDT). Also, Yale released decisions yesterday so you could check that.</p>

<p>alright now i’m signing off. see you guys at 2:30ish!</p>

<p>@Aerobug, I applied to a lot of combined programs and a few other schools I really wanted to attend (around 25) and was rejected to every combined program and a few others (Duke, Penn, Brown, Rice, Vandy, JHU). Emory was my back up and I didn’t really think I would attend.</p>

<p>The competition this year has become incredibly difficult.</p>

<p>Accepted: UC Berkeley, UCLA, USC, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, San Diego State, San Jose State, CSU Fullerton, CSU Long Beach
Denied: Yale, Columbia, Cornell, U Chicago
Waiting to hear from: Stanford</p>

<p>Right now, Berkeley is my top choice, UCLA is second, and USC is third. I don’t have high hopes for Stanford, but I love Berkeley so much, so all is well! Good luck to everyone!</p>

<p>I know, sanguinee. I do feel for you. I know what it’s like to be rejected from all your top choices.
Hopefully you’ll get into Stanford and it’ll be the end of it. If not, Emory is still a magnificent school. It was my top choice at one point, but due to personal reasons that had absolutely nothing to do with the school, I didn’t end up applying.</p>

<p>ClassClown2017, I’m so happy to hear that you’ll love where you go regardless. :)</p>

<p>aaaannd one more to the rejected list: Yale.</p>

<p>good luck to everyone applying to Stanford. And congrats to anyone who got into yale, their RD acceptance rate was the lowest out of all the ivys (5.5%) check it out: [2013</a> Ivy League Admissions Statistics | The Ivy Coach](<a href=“http://theivycoach.com/2013-ivy-league-admissions-statistics/]2013”>2013 Ivy League Admissions Statistics | Ivy Coach)</p>

<p>sorry, i meant 5.2%!!!</p>

<p>Honestly, it’s at the point where being rejected hardly means anything anymore. You can be the best of the best and still not get in.</p>

<p>@Illimani. You are incorrect. You are looking at old data. Harvard’s RD rate was 3.38% this year.</p>

<p>Harvard had the lowest RD acceptance rate at 3.7%</p>

<p>Sorry I meant 3.4</p>

<p>@ohmmho you’re right haha, sorry was thinking the year they had was the actual year, not the class. this is crazy.</p>

<p>Thanks, Aerobug! I will- Berkeley has been my top choice since sophomore year, and schools like Stanford and Yale were always just dreams for me, that I applied to to see if maybe I’d get in. I’m going to be an English major, and Berkeley has basically the best English program in the country, so I’m very happy! And I’m sure that you’ll have a great college experience wherever you end up, Aerobug! :)</p>

<p>Jeez, this is the only thing I can think of right now. I don’t care if I get in or not at this point (of course, I’m exaggerating, I want to get in), I JUST WANT TO KNOW.</p>

<p>@Aerobug Thanks for that :). I’m sure you’ll do great wherever you decide to attend. What are your choices/waiting for?</p>

<p>Less than four hours! :smiley: I CAN DO IT!</p>

<p>@Sanguinee, I am most likely going to attend Carleton next year, which I’m super stoked about. :slight_smile: I’m just waiting for Stanford and Wesleyan.</p>

<p>I live about 10 minutes away from Stanford, and if I get in, I’m going to do a victory lap. :P</p>

<p>Accepted: UC Berkeley Engineering, UCLA, USC, UCSD, UCI, CSULB
Waitlisted: Princeton, UPenn Wharton, Cornell
Rejected: Harvard</p>

<p>Waiting on Stanford. Most likely won’t be accepted…</p>

<p>Sigh…</p>

<p>Does Stanford holistically review applicants? Or are they more stats based? I’m an urm (hispanic) with a 2010 sat…and I’m not sure if my sat is high enough. </p>
