<p>if i get rejected i'm gonna send this thread as my appeal. look how much i care northeastern, looook.</p>
<p>LOL...same here =\ i really hope i dont ger rejected... sad thing is..i wanted to do EA but i missed it by a week =\ all of my friends that did EA have lower stats than me and they all got in..some with $5,000 scholarships..others with $10,000</p>
<p>kellyconn1: Here are my stats:</p>
<p>GPA: 3.8 uw/4.3 w
SAT: 1950 (pretty low...this is prob what'll hurt me at most schools)
Essays: Great (I hope)
ECs: Lots... Here are some: president/founder of three clubs (president of another established one), job at Smith Barney (brokerage house), volunteerwork (at two distinct places for three years), paid spanish tutor, took college level classes in Spain for one summer, etc.</p>
<p>Recs: Teachers (great); Counselor (who knows)--Get this... I go to public school and my graduating class is so big (and the counselors are so lazy) that the students can't even get a recommendation from the counselor they've been working with throughout high school. My school does it in alphabetical order, meaning that if ur last name begins with A-D, for example, you get a certain counselor to do ur rec. I hadn't even MET my counselor, and he wrote my rec. after only seeing my resume and transcript. Sorry for going on and on like this--the situation just really ticks me off. Ok, venting time is over. :)</p>
<p>Ya, I also noticed that we applied to a lot of the same schools. Fordham is my #1 choice... Hopefully I'll be hearing back from them soon. What's urs? Who knows...we could end up at the same place!</p>
<p>shiba did u get into neu? cause if u got rejected i def got rejeected</p>
<p>I dunno yet... My list cleared on Thursday, but I still can't log into myNEU. I don't really think that having ur list cleared on Thursday has any correlation with receiving a rejection letter. However, I'm def keeping my fingers crossed! Also, since I live in CA, I obviously get things later than everyone else... Good luck, JAhmed! I hope everything works out... Let me know what happens!</p>
<p>JAhmed, Don't say that. Look at those accepted and rejected in the archives of cc. Many kids with very strong stats get rejected, and students with weaker stats did get in (I am not saying very weak, but at least 3.1+, and solid sat scores). I read that NEU would rather make sure that you are not using them as a safety school. A lot of stronger applicants are, in fact, using NEU as a safety. This makes makes it tough on the really strong student that sincerely wants to attend NEU.</p>
<p>thursday's children live to see another day.</p>
<p>yes. 'another day'</p>
<p>Just keep checking myNEU, everybody! And don't forget, yesterday was Saturday and today is Sunday, so I don't really think the "rule" that some people have established (two days to sign in--if u can't, ur rejected) applies when it's the weekend. After all, the adcoms need a break sometime! Try to keep ur hopes up. It's tough, I know, but you can do it!</p>
<p>I think it would be smart of the adcoms to reject everyone on a Thursday though, no? Most weekends wouldn't be negatively effected. I'm just saying. But I am highly devoted to Pessimism sometimes so please, everyone, keep thinking positive!</p>
<p>Oh, believe me CBA321, I can be as pessimistic as they come. However, I'm trying not to read too much into things, like I usually do, especially after looking at the CC threads :).</p>

<p>guys, i am so confused!! what exactly are you saying, that you think there is some kind of correlation between those whose lists vanished on Thursday and rejections? That was the day that rejections went out? I am in NY and would have expected something on fri. or sat in that case but that is totally grasping at straws, don't you think? I am pessimistic only because a few from my school who are strong, one got rejected, one got waitlisted. i have no real edge over them however you never know............i guess every day that we have is another day of possibilities! how many of you consider Northeastern your first choice? Good luck to all, I feel like I know you already! The Survivors continue to wait......................</p>
<p>also there is no chance today that the online info could change or suddenly you could log onto MY NEU is there?</p>
<p>One more thing.............someone who did get in at another neighboring school get this had a 3.6 GPA and a total score of 1600/2400 on SAT! And there was no legacy, athletic or anything involved, so there is HOPE!!</p>
<p>Wow, that's suprising! URM?</p>
<p>...and which one would that be?</p>
<p>arts and sciences.</p>
