I like Philly tho. It’s a nice city. What’s wrong with it? California has nothing nearby unless you literally live in places like LA. Bart’s nice but not everywhere so public transit is a hassle. Kind of why I like Swarthmore, there’s the the easy transit.
philadelphia is the greatest city on earth trust me ive lived there for 18 years
That’s nice. I’m so scared for tmr. I want to know yet I also don’t want to know.
Can’t agree more!
Good Luck everyone. Hopefully we all get what we deserve… :)>-
i deserve nothiing
Haha. I feel the same.
I would give my first born child to get in. Swarthmore sounds amazing
u have kids? how old are you?
son applying ED(doesn’t use CC). everyone on thread sounds amazing and hoping good news for everyone but as I told my son “expect the unexpected in the college admission process” as there are so many variables about the admission process beyond grades and stand. testing including geographic and cultural diversity, recruitable athlete status, legacy etc(HE IS NONE OF THESE) and although he loves Swarthmore and would be thrilled to get in if he doesn’t I hope he recognizes many other great schools out there. Hoping the best for everyone but also hoping that everyone bounces back quickly if not good news and recognize some other wonderful school will love you!
Hahaha ragueneau I have the same feeling. Also after looking at the number of friends who have been deferred/rejected from different universities I am not really feeling confident…
@ragueneau I was kidding. It’s an idiom. I’m 18 and I don’t intend to have any soon
Sorry I meant figure of speech. CC is being annoying and won’t let me edit
Any chance it will happen before they say? I think I’m going to wet myself.
I think they said it will be 6:00 PM, so it should be that time. Good luck to everyone! I believe all of us deserve a great school and bright future, with or without Swarthmore!
seriously its better to know the results even if its bad news than this waiting game. it sucks. son hibernating in his room now
Hibernating probably good practice for a potential Swattie. Make sure he is holding a book while he does it, need to get all the study muscles in shape.
LOL @Goodluckclub
One hour. One really, really long hour. I better put on an adult diaper now. If the answer is no I am going to wear a hair shirt over my Depends and roam the earth, mumbling, eating from dumpsters, scaring small children and periodically shaking my fist at the heavens. And if they dare waitlist me, I am not going to change my diaper until May.
deferred he is ready to move on
