Vassar College 2013 Regular Decision

<p>I got an email</p>

<p>**Decision: WAITLISTED **</p>

<p>international student.</p>

<p>Congrats to those accepted! Can you comment on the size of your envelope??</p>

<p>I believe those were emails. Why does everyone care about the size of those envelopes anyway:)?</p>

<p>Rejected… oy vey. It’s been one of my top schools since 9th grade. Not gonna lie, it hurts.</p>

<p>i got mine today. accepted! i live within a half hour of vassar so that’s probably why i got it so soon.</p>

<p>and it’s a big white envelope.</p>

<p>Ok, just got home. I was waitlisted. I’m super disappointed just because this probably means a flat out rejection from Brown.</p>

<p>Liz44, I am in the same boat.</p>

<p>Got into Vassar…International Student :D</p>
