The Decision Thread: EDI

<p>I was thinking the same thing!</p>

<p>ahh my bad. there actually IS one on facebook. search "Vassar Class of 2013"
quite the party going down, actually =]</p>

<p>lol. I was just coming back to tell YOU.
I was surprised that over 60 had joined already.</p>

<p>haha yeah, I was too. at least a few of those are current students looking to answer questions. and I'd bet that several more were RD applicants just scoping it out.</p>

<p>this is so cool. with little more than 600 students in our class, we're all but bound to know the majority of people. meaning that the people we're meeting now, in December 08', are the same people we're going to be rooming with, learning with, partying with come august.</p>

<p>love my lifeeee</p>

<p>I have read on several message boards That those are not official-that kids have not been admitted have joined for Vassar as well as other schools, Feel free to start one for recent admit!</p>

<p>oops, i just made a new facebook group not knowing that there already was one. well feel free to join it anyway. it's Vassar Class of '13. Btw, i got accepted.</p>

<p>Decision: ACCEPTED!!!!!!!!</p>
