<p>Why is that? I’m just curious.</p>

<p>Waitlisted.</p>
<p>Apparently completing the entire undergraduate math curriculum before turning 18 and being inducted into Phi Beta Kappa as a sophomore isn’t good enough for UChicago. At least I know the school I’m at right now wants me.</p>
<p>Time to roll with the punches, I suppose. Good luck to everyone and congrats Mind Gravity!</p>
<p>Rejected haha
wow so many rejections!</p>
<p>Dude this is the YEAR of rejections! Almost every university has rejected so many ****ing people! OMG~!</p>
<p>@goingforanoble - Yeah…I did really want it. It’s so unfair =/ I loved that university, I desperately wanted to go there! And, my dog got run over today and he died. How worse can life get!</p>
<p>Guys, as difficult as this may be for some of us, I think we should let it go. There’s no point in letting our rejection fester inside of us.</p>
<p>and I’m sorry to hear about your dog cordova. :/</p>
<p>@goingforanobel - I know it’s sad =/ This is so unfair!!!</p>
<p>Do you know if you can apply to transfer a second time? I’ll be a sophomore next year, so I could still apply for next fall and still have two years at Uchi.</p>
<p>IDK but I’m never applying to UChicago. Reject me once shame on me, reject me twice, GO F U C K yourselves!!!</p>
<p>@cashinapig: yes, you can apply again. I’m finishing up my sophomore year and applied to be a junior. I would go for it if I were you! If you can, ask the admissions committee what areas made them vote to not admit you this year. you seem like a fairly level-headed person. I’m sure things will work out. :)</p>
<p>waitlisted, bleh</p>
<p>Sorry about my outburst…I just needed that. =/</p>
<p>Rejected!</p>
<p>High GPA in community college and a Chapter Officer of Phi Theta Kappa with two international awards. Yeah, I’m OBVIOUSLY not qualified or anything. Idiots.</p>
<p>Hopefully Stanford or UPenn give me a miracle, but at the rate things are going, I will probably lose respect for all transfer admissions processes in these schools.</p>
<p>goingforanobel: awesome, thanks! Do you have any idea who I would contact to find out that information? I really want to attend Uchi, but sometimes I wonder if I’m just not cut of the cloth they’re looking for. TBH, I thought my essays this year were phenomenal, and my stats and all weren’t too far off the mark.</p>
<p>Maybe third time’s the charm :)</p>
<p>Accepted.</p>
<p>For those who want stats: </p>
<p>Female, from NY, competitive high school, waitlisted when I applied for freshman admission
College: UC Berkeley
GPA: 4.0 college / 94.0 high school
SAT: 2270
AP: one 3, three 4’s, four 5’s
Extra currics: HS: captain of swim team, editor on school paper, various creative writing awards, College: reporter for daily school paper, staff editor for lit mag.
Essays: well-written, stressed not wanting to leave Cal because I disliked it, but because it made me understand what I was missing by not being at Chicago – thankful for the year I had at Berkeley, it helped me grow, etc. I also reaffirmed my interest in an email to my regional admissions officer </p>
<p>Message me if you want more specifics. Congrats to those who got in, and apologies to those who didn’t *I’m sure you’ll be successful regardless in your future endeavors.</p>
<p>Wait-listed. And I got into MIT, which I thought admitted fewer transfers… I guess they’re looking for different things.</p>
<p>ACCEPTED, college gpa 3.95 umaine, sat 2240, high school gpa 2.9… weehee</p>
<p>I’m not sure what I did wrong…I don’t mean to brag, but I took 13 AP Classes in high school, top of my class, 4.0 GPA in a public university with 18 credits BOTH semesters of my freshman year…also I am undocumented, Hispanic, low income, grew up in poverty…like what more do they want? And, I had good recommendations along with decent essays =/</p>
