To all those rejected Early Action:

<p>^ hell yeahhhhhh</p>

<p>i completely agree. as a new rejectee, i’m actually not too sad. and three other girls just got in from my school! i just take this as a sign that stanford and I weren’t meant to be together, that i actually belong to another college, yet to stake it’s claim on me.</p>

<p>to all you other rejectees, dont worry i think we will all go to the right schools for us. good luck with the rest of the college app process, i know im not done yet!</p>

<p>Like FightingQuaker, I too was rejected SCEA last year. Now I can’t see myself going to any other school than the one I currently attend.</p>

<p>The best thing to do is to move on stronger than before. After Stanford rejected me, I felt like I was inadequate and had little chance of going to a top school. This ended up being far from the truth…my next decisions arrived in the form of likely letters from Columbia and Duke. There is nothing to say the same can’t happen to you.</p>

<p>Just remember that there are many many positive surprises down the road, and I guarantee that all of you will find a home at whatever college you decide to attend :)</p>

<p>I love you FightingQuaker! :)</p>

<p>It hurts so bad. I put everything into Stanford, and I’m sure everyone else here did too. When the letter came, I read the first few words and skimmed the rest. I don’t really know how to describe how I felt initially but now there’s just this constant, painful stitch in my chest. A lot of my problems would’ve been solved if I had been accepted. They’re are more now that I’m rejected.</p>

<p>But I accept the decision. I have to move on even if it hurts. Thanks FightingQuaker for empathizing with us. I believe you when you say there’s a place out there for me.</p>

<p>thanks you for your words
i will weep my tears and get to work on my RD!!
good luck for all!!</p>

<p>Were any legacies rejected early action this year? Or were they all deferred like I was… I’m suspicious. Maybe they’re just stringing us along to make us feel better and not upset the alumni? Let me know!</p>

<p>You don’t need Stanford to be successful. You don’t need to be successful to be happy.</p>

<p>inDEFERent, first of all i like the pun on your username, and I was deferred as well. I am not a legacy, but two of my friends at my school are legacies and they both got in. Maybe part of the reason I got deferred is because they had already accepted two people from my school who were legacies and all, but then again, I was thinking I would get rejected right away…</p>
