***Stanford Class of 2020 Applicant Discussion***

@Hotmamanearyou They’ve just shown scores as a new thing for me///

@Hotmamanearyou why??

@hopefulmuch they’ve posted the scores received a while ago though :confused:

@humanperson I’m an economics major as well. Good luck

Guys, my heart is in my stomach. I can’t believe that decision day is already tomorrow. I don’t even know how to describe how I’m feeling right now. Anxious, nervous, excited, wanting-to-find-out-but-not-wanting-to-find-out?? Anyways, I sincerely hope you all know that you’re spectacular human beings, otherwise you wouldn’t be applying to Stanford. :wink:

No matter what happens, we’ll all end up doing great things at great places.

Hi all, I am here from the Vanderbilt Early Decision Thread. I just wanted to wish you all luck – I know that tomorrow is a very momentous day for all of us, and believe that everything will work out for the best. All of you are irrefutably bright young men and women who will do amazing things in the world.

Congratulations and best of luck!

So excited for the decision yet I’m so apprehensive. It feels like my life’s verdict is finally here. I hope everyone does well. One more night!

You don’t get an interview with an alumni. There is another disadvantage but that one can’t be confirmed.

So nervous omg omg omg omg

all the applicants from my school did not know the decision was going to go out tomorrow. we are all panicking we thought it would come out on december 15. i am not prepared and i am a little miffed, how did you guys know the decision was coming out tomorrow?

in recent years, the decision has always come out the second friday of december. I think last year it was at 3 pm PST though.

oh boy we are not prepared over here on the east coast, we thought we had until tuesday this is too sudden

Good luck to all applicants. I know you all will go far in life!

Does the interview statistically improve the chance by any significant amount?

I highly doubt it, since many people aren’t offered them, and since they are optional.

Yeah that is what I though, thanks.

any advice to calm nerves? all my friends have just gotten accepted into ivies so feelin anxious af

Do live auditions on instruments boost chance of acceptance? Especially if the auditioned said you were a “good player?”

@phelps16 I knew a girl last year who did a solo at the stanford youth orchestra, amazingly talented flute player, recommended by the music department head, and she got deferred :frowning:
