What will YOU do when you get rejected/deferred?

<p>For all you ED who are getting depressed and stressed like I am, how will you really react to getting rejected/deferred?</p>

<p>Deferred - Since only a small percentage of applicants get deferred, I'll be slightly happy... though depressed at the prolonging of the process. Stressed about having to apply to several other colleges.</p>

<p>REJECTED - Well, I want to go to CC so badly (the perfect school for me), I honestly think I will cry and be very sad. I sort of expect it, and I sort of hold on to the slight chance that the news will be good.</p>

<p>O right kissoff.. I misread your intentions of this board lol..
Ok.. WHAT will I do if I get R-ed or D-ed?</p>

<p>Oh.. heaven forbid...!!!</p>

<p>OMG..... i don't even want to think about what will happen to me if I do get R-ed..
I'll probably have a crying fit... not get out of bed for AT LEAST 2 days... have more crying fits.. go into ultra depression.. not answer any calls, not go on the computer, not leave my room.... not have contact with the outer world..then go into DENIAL.
Get up, wipe away the tears, shake myself up, hold my head up high.. Eat some Ben&Jerry's with the season's-special-white-chocolate-coated oreos... Go out and get drunk with my friends.. and forget Columbia ever happened.
Finish my RD apps with perfection.
And get on with my life. And hope that my other schools want me :) Cus I am special! :)</p>

<p>If I get D-ed... have all the crying fits and what not.. same as above. BUT still hold on to the hopes, dreams and obssessions that come with Columbia!</p>

15

<p>hmmm should i get a columbia envelope and send u some mail silver..incase..no no we dont have to worry..ur def gettin a package..<em>hopes</em></p>

16

<p>I just made a pact with my friend: If we get unhappy letters we're going to throw ourselves into a pool, just like in Orange County. Drowning is the only alternative...</p>

<p>If I get in I'll probably jump into the pool willingly just for the fun of it...</p>

17

<p>Orange County was a great movie.</p>

18

<p>There's a movie called Orange County??</p>

<p>Marissa in the OC throws a deck chair in the pool.. does that count? lol. Maybe I'll do that - in rage........</p>

19

<p>Orange County is an amazing movie!!</p>

<p>I can't get deferred because I'm applying RD, but if that little envelope comes in April I will probably start screaming and break a lot of stuff, unless of course I have already been accepted in Barnard (my co-1st choice). I just hope that for some bizarre reason Columbia gets very few RD apps this year :)</p>
