<p>This is the 200th post on this thread and my 401st! I leave for BMC tomorrow and I can't wait to meet all of you on Sunday!</p>
<p>im with brillar in that i donw own rainboots and a rain coat.. and yea..the dog has nothing to do with standing in the rain..i just REALLLY love that picture xD</p>
<p>IM GOING TO PA TMW!!!!</p>
<p>GAH!!! Just a heads-up, the state of PA is experiencing some rain- I can't exactly speak for Philly, but I had it an hour away and it's supposedly supposed to keep going all weekend, but it looks gorgeous outside right now (at 7:30 AM, hahaha). Last night there was a lightning storm and it was pouring and all that jazz.</p>
<p>My feelings about BMC right now: IUERAGYHAGLAJAJLHAJAJAJAJAJAJZABBAZABBAKHAHGA!</p>
<p>Excitement!!!!!</p>
<p>(Chudiane, I get my financial aid tomorrow because we had a talk with the finaid office! I'm very very excited!)</p>
<p>yea..i talked to them to..bryn mawr isnt going to happen..toooo $$$$$ :(</p>
<p>That's really odd, since they say they meet 100% of need- that stinks pretty much... sorry they think you can pay more than you can. You'd have to go into major debt to pay for it, then?</p>
<p>I'm sure you definitely have a ton of other great choices- what other schools are you looking at?</p>
<p>Chudiane:
I saw on another school's discussion board (at least I think it was different school) that someone else was having a similar issue. However that family posted that they met with the school's financial aid office and the financial aid office had an "extra zero" on the money available to be paid by the family. The change was made and the child received the appropriate aid.</p>
<p>I just put my deposit in for next year. BRYN MAWR 2012!!!!! XD</p>
<p>GAAAHAAHAAH. We were promised that the finaid would definitely be posted today but there is nothing. This is honestly the only time I've ever not completely loved BMC, but I can understand that they have a lot to do, it's just I wish they didn't say that it would definitely be today.... Now I'm waiting another day, still not knowing if I can go or not....</p>
<p>NS, what did I tell you? :P</p>
<p>haha, I'm so excited. lskjgflhsdfbg. it's gorgeous, the education is great, i can play soccer but not be stressed out about it, the food is DELICIOUS, it looks like hogwarts, i saw luke wilson, dorms are brilliant, mawrters are amazing.... i really could go on and on. </p>
<p>brillar- i hope you get your fin aid!! </p>
<p>and i hope i see/talk to everyone at the chat 4/17. XD</p>
<p>OH, yeah, I forgot that NS was on the fence! It's great that you made your decision! Now instead of stressing out you can just looooovvvve BMC, haha. That must be nice.</p>
<p>And I did not see Luke Wilson! I probably could have but I was checking out the Hav boys when I could have been hunting down Luke, hahah.</p>
<p>I met Luke today (on the stairs to Brecon) and I was just thinking 'So this is the guy that everybody is making such a fuss about?'</p>
<p>Luke Wilson BUMPED into me!</p>
<p>Oh I wish I could have been at BMC for open campus so I could see Luke! :(
But I'm going in a week (3rd time) so that I can be certain in my decision. My parents still want me to go to Wooster = scholarship (I also have a financial aid problem...their giving me $0!!!) but I'm already smitten with BMC! To quote Elf "I'm in love! I'm in love! And I don't care who knows it!!!" <3<3<3<3<3</p>
<p>Hey, I applied for Bryn Mawr as a transfer student. I haven't yet heard from them. Do you happen to know until when will they keep notifying? I guess it has been too late. I have few "to do list" on virtual brymawr a/c but now I have nothing to do...I am so worried. I want to attend bryn mawr!!!!!</p>
<p>correction <em>I had few to do list......</em></p>
<p>I don't know if I'm going to be able to go to Bryn Mawr....</p>
<p>Still no financial aid. Still no reply to my mother's email. Talked to a secretary today and she said that it would be a week (even though we were promised that it would be up on Tuesday at latest) and that she'd have someone call back today... still no call even though my mom talked to the secretary at 10:30 this morning. </p>
<p>HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO WAIT A WEEK?</p>
<p>It's not like I can turn in the deposit without a financial aid decision... My mom is screaming and crying and she says she doesn't care anymore which is a baaaaaaaad thing for me. I guess I'm going to calm down and try calling again...</p>
<p>It really sucks that the school that had the most contact with me during admissions would suddenly completely ignore me.... I mean, I know that they have a lot to do, but if you can't do something, SAY YOU CAN'T DO IT. Don't say you can do it by Tuesday and then ignore me...</p>
<p>And I just called again and the secretary said to wait a week and then I retold the story to her and she said it would be up in two or three hours, but honestly I don't really believe that until I actually see it.</p>
<p>I'm leaving the house so I can avoid my mom if it's still not up tonight...</p>
<p>Brillar, ask to speak directly to a financial aid officer. By pass the secretary.</p>
<p>The secretary is a pretty stubborn blockade... She says "I'll see if she's available..." And then she puts me on hold for a bit and repeats (hopefully) what the admissions officer said.</p>
<p>Either that or there's just one lady in there and she's pretending there are other people with her, haha. That could be.</p>
<p>If it's not up tonight then I'll give it another go sometime next week. Maybe there'll be a different secretary- the current one sounds a little morose. I hate to bother them so much but it's not exactly my fault and it's a pretty important decision...</p>
