<p>I remember seeing this thread a while ago on people that have gotten accepted to their ultimate reaches and some that were rejected by their matches, etc.</p>
<p>Has this happened to anyone on CC?
I'm sure it has but anyone like to share their stories?</p>
<p>That did happen to me as a transfer student. </p>
<p>Got into UT Austin, USC (my biggest reach), and Binghamton, among others. Got rejected from University of Houston (my instate safety!!) and Texas A&M. Just goes to show how weird college admissions can be. It all worked out for the best though.</p>
<p>That’s great to hear! and gives much hope. Which school did you finally end up choosing?</p>
<p>Also, to those surprise acceptances out there, anyone get offered good scholarships?</p>
<p>I ended up at UT for financial reasons. I would have loved to go to USC. </p>
<p>I got scholarships and grants that cover all of the tuition, which just leaves room and board for me to pay. </p>
<p>Good luck with the whole crazy college admissions process! It is definitely stressful.</p>
