<p>I can’t wait to (hopefully) attend here along with the rest of you! I know many of you did ED, I wish you the best of luck. I hope I can still get in RD!

<p>I applied ED as I'm sure you know.</p>
<p>I definitely hope to see you in August! I will post my status as soon as I get the notification.</p>
<p>I applied ED also. We should have some sort of Bryn Mawr class of 2009 meet after we find out if we got in. I really hope we all get accepted!!!!!! Only a week left....</p>
<p>Wow, good luck!</p>
<p>That brings up a good point...exactly how long until The Letter? And what size is the acceptance letter/package?</p>
<p>I've said this before, but my interviewer told me her ED acceptance came about a week before Dec. 15 and it wasn't a big package, but it wasn't an envelope.</p>
<p>So...do we only have 2 girls applying ED on this board?</p>
<p>Oh yeah, if you haven't seen this yet, check it out.

<p>Maybe we are the only two!!! Then they'd have to take us.... :)</p>
<p>I'm guessing we'll hear from Bryn Mawr between this Friday and Tuesday after, but that's a complete guess.
I live about 45 mins. away and drove up yesterday morning to see campus again (obsessive???) and it looked sooo pretty, even though it was cold. I want to go sooo badly.
If anybody gets their "Letter," please post! :)</p>
<p>Michelec, are you applying ED?
Good luck if you are!</p>
<p>Sorry for clogging up this thread, but I just found this </p>
<p>which says "mid-December." Hmmm, does that mean the 15th, or later than that?</p>
<p>I'm not unfortunately. I want to do ED 2, but I probably won't because of financial reasons. My parents can't pay 40,000/year, and they want to make sure the schools I'm accepted to, they can afford. I might go schedule an appt. with the Fin Aid office, I'm not sure.</p>
<p>Wow, that's not fair, winter ED gets notification less in about 3 weeks. AS for us...holiday break is the week after Dec 15, so I would assume it would be around there. But yeah, I'm hoping I'll get my letter in about a week.</p>
<p>My parents can't pay 40000/year either, but one of the (only) reasons you're allowed to break ED agreements is if they don't meet your financial need, so I applied anyway.</p>
<p>Are you serious? That's good news :D. I might be able to convince my parents to let me do ED 2, if they heard that, and I need ED, cuz i heard it adds points to your SAT (mine isn't too good). Thanks for your help! Just wondering what other schools did you apply 2? I was thinking maybe Haverford as well, but I'm not sure. TTYL!
Michele</p>
<p>I am definitely not good enough to be accepted to Haverford. I don't even like the school! (shh, don't tell). But here is my list of other schools:</p>
<p>Wellesley
Mt. Holyoke
Oberlin
Macalester
Lawrence
Ohio State
William & Mary
McGill
Univ. of British Columbia</p>
<p>I've heard Wellesley and Mt. Holyoke are pretty amazing, but decided not to apply cause they're a little to far from my family and boyfriend (I know, I'm a dork). Have you visited either? Did you like them as much as Bryn Mawr? If they're similiar to Bryn Mawr and I get deferred :( maybe I'll apply.</p>
<p>I was thinking about applying to Haverford also but I think there's no way I'd get in, and did not really like it when I visited. When I visited Bryn Mawr, a girl told me the stereotype they have of Haverford students is that they areall jocks who partied a lot, and they seemed correct. That was just my impression and might be off...then again, after seeing Bryn Mawr, not many of colleges look good :)</p>
<p>My list of other schools is:
Villanova
University of Delaware
Loyola (MD)
St. Mary's (MD)
Washington (MD)</p>
<p>Oops, I meant "other," not "of"</p>
<p>That seems like a good list. I'm kinda limited to where I can go because my parents don't want me to go more than 1 or 2 hours away from home my first year. Luckily I live near a lot of good schools. I like Villanova, but I think there financial aid program isn't that great, I'm not sure though. Yea I don't like Haverford that much, I just thought if I didn't get into BMC I might get in there- then I realized it was more competitive :). I still think BM is my first choice.</p>
<p>Do you know what Villanova is like? I walked around campus and it looked pretty, but that's about all I know...is it tough to get into? I dont know much about the schools on my list besides bryn mawr yet :)</p>
<p>Villanova is pretty cool I visited there as well. I though I could get in there pretty easily, but its more competitive than I thought. I think if you have above a 1200 you should be ok to get in! I know their academics are strong, but they also place a lot of emphasis on sports and sororities and that type of stuff. Its weird its kind of opposite of Bryn Mawr- they place more emphasis on the partying stuff like that. It seems like a nice place though, I'd be happy going there if I could afford it- o yea its very preppy 2, like almost all white affluent people- definitely not diverse.</p>
<p>I think I told u this b4 but i know some1 who goes to loyola and loves it! Its a really good school, but too far for me.</p>
<p>i also applied edI. i am so nervous. is it really eight days?! i'm going crazy</p>
<p>Thanks! If I get deferred I'll look more into Villanova, but I'm not really the partying type...that's one of the reason Bryn Mawr sounds so great! I hope we both get in!!</p>
<p>I know....1 week left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope we all get in...that would be really cool!</p>
<p>That will be. Just relax, try to concentrate on school work- I just keep thinking all these hard classes senior year are just prepping us for college! TTYL</p>
