wait-list acceptances

<p>adaa, if you have the courage to call and ask how many they think they’re still likely to take, you’d be doing the rest of us a great service.</p>

<p>Meanwhile…</p>

<p>Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time.
– Macbeth, Act V, Scene 5</p>

<p>columbia blue, can you describe yourself? Location, race, special talents? Thakns</p>

<p>They’ll definitely take at least one more because I gave up my spot yesterday!</p>

<p>Good luck guys!</p>

<p>keephopealive, wait for my post in the afternoon, im totally going to :stuck_out_tongue: I think. LOVE THE QUOTE, SO PERFECT. except for the pretty part.more like excruciating.</p>

<p>I hate that my chances are lower cuz im an international student. also hate that there was i think, one international student who posted here, so I really dont know what the situation is. </p>

<p>ps: the world needs more soccerspazes :D</p>

<p>soccerspaz, when did you get called? I thought first wave deadlines were earlier, so you were probably a rolling admit?</p>

<p>So, just curious…if that coveted call does not come through, where will y’all go? Is anyone on other WL?</p>

<p>if for me it doesn’t come, I’m gonna be a maroon Phoenix at the University of Chicago. I’m also on Yale’s waitlist</p>

<p>this is torture. i don’t think there’s much hope. :'(</p>

<p>I’m headed to Duke next year if Princeton doesn’t work out. So is anyone calling today to ask how many more people they’re going to accept from the waitlist?</p>

<p>haha ok I think I’m chickening out :confused: someone tougher than me can perhaps be the good samaritan :stuck_out_tongue:
this sucks.</p>

<p>Well, I’d love to be going to UC Berkeley, but the finaid they gave me was crap. Can’t afford anything close to the cost, so for now I’m going to Rice U for about 12k per year.</p>

<p>EDIT:</p>

<p>So what was/were everyone’s intended major(s)?</p>

<p>Doubt thou the stars are fire;
Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar;
But never doubt I love…</p>

<p>Hamlet: Act II, Scene II</p>

<p>Princeton!</p>

<p>i just called but they connected me to someone who didn’t pick up and i didn’t want to leave a message :frowning: at princeton i applied for ORFE, what about yall?</p>

<p>Thanks for trying, 314159. Adaa, thanks for trying to try! =)</p>

<p>If someone else has the courage to call and ask how many they think they’re still likely to take, that would be wonderful for us all. I am a parent, so I don’t think it would be appropriate for me to call, and my son is concerned he may have already bothered them too many times with too many emails and extra recommendations.</p>

<p>Computergeek, you may be intrigued that adaa’s countryman the Shakespeare scholar Imtiaz Habib argues ([“Never</a> doubt I love”: misreading Hamlet. - Free Online Library](<a href=“http://■■■■■■■.com/29sf3no]"Never”>http://■■■■■■■.com/29sf3no)) that Hamlet intends the opposite of what his love poem to Ophelia seems to imply, but no one could doubt the sincerity of your love for Old Nassau. =)</p>

<p>Cadillac,</p>

<p>I’m an Asian male from New York. I go to a public school and will be a social science major. My most serious EC’s are involvement in local politics/school newspaper. If you want more info, ask.</p>

<p>Best of luck to all of you.</p>

<p>hey first off, congratulations :slight_smile: secondly, did you hear of anyone else who also got a call?around what time did they contact you btw?</p>

<p>and thanks for being so helpful</p>

<p>Sharts,</p>

<p>Thanks! I got the call at around 1:30 pm yesterday. I don’t know of anyone else who got a call, but from what I have read on this site, Princeton will not be doing waitlist admissions in waves anymore. </p>

<p>As far as how I pursued the waitlist, I sent them a letter of interest along with a graded essay from 11th grade.</p>

<p>I have some extra updates, but they are pretty small. Should I try to strike up conversation with my local admissions officer and tell him/her?</p>

<p>Oh I didn’t get called. I got in RD but left to go to Yale because i got off the WL there.</p>

<p>Good luck guys!</p>

<p>Congratulations, Columbiablue1! Did you send your materials to a specific admissions counselor?</p>
