Very lucky indeed, it is only a verbal offer so far, this morning we plan to enroll.
NOTE:It’s 7 AM here, I’m in the Pacific time zone.

I have English friends who applied to HADES, and they all deserved to get in too, it might also have something to do with the exponential rise in applicants.

My son’s friends all gave up on the US schools and declined to go on waitlists. They took offers in Canada (actually were stuck because they applied early and were given deadlines BEFORE A10). My son applied later in Canada (it is more rolling) and stayed on the WL. All of my son’s friends have great credentials and for not one to have received a M10 offer speaks volumes.

Big News! Deerfield called and offered me a place too. I think that there is a lot of movement on the waitlists right now! Stay close to your phones.

Lightening does strike twice! That’s great, although it seems you have committed. One more spot for others.

I think schools are trying to catch folks before they pay other schools tomorrow. Today might be an exciting day.

Also I am English-Irish and I reside in Southern California. Congrats on Exeter! Maybe we’ll be classmates. Sorry if that’s TMI, I don’t really know what you’re asking so I tried to cover everything :smiley:
