<p>In. So glorious, victorious...</p>

<p>in! how nuts. 300/4,178. holy cannoli. be proud, guys.</p>

<p>Me too... I feel kind of guilty, though, because I realized over the past couple of months that it's really not a good fit for me. I hope all you people who got rejected/waitlisted have extraordinary success in all your other applications! It will all work out for the best.</p>

<p>Congratulations! The Admission Committee at Claremont McKenna College has unanimously* voted to offer you admission for the Class of 2012, which will enroll here at the end of August. For your class we received 4,178 applications for 300 freshman openings, so you should feel especially proud of your selection by the CMC Admission Committee. It was by far the most competitive year ever in the history of the college.</p>

<p>Of course, your enrollment here is contingent upon your continuing your high level of academic achievement and course enrollment through your senior year of high school. Please be sure to have your final transcript sent to us in June.</p>

<p>If you have applied earlier for need-based financial aid, your financial aid decision will be sent to you in a few days.</p>

<p>Enclosed is a card which we would like you to complete and return to us. In accordance with the Candidates' Reply Date Agreement of The College Board, your final decision must be mailed to us by May 1, 2008 (postmark date).</p>

<p>To accept our offer of admission, you should send a check or money order made out to Claremont McKenna College for $500.00 along with this card. This non-refundable commitment deposit will reserve your place in the freshman class. We ask that you notify us promptly in the event that you must withdraw, so that your place may be given to someone else seeking admission.</p>

<p>Please refer to the enclosed booklet, Welcome to CMC, for more information about your admission to CMC. Also enclosed is a Housing Questionnaire. If you plan to attend CMC, please complete the questionnaire candidly and thoughtfully so that we understand your residence and roommate preferences. Return the questionnaire along with your $500 commitment deposit. If you have any questions or if we may be of any additional assistance to you, [name], please be sure to contact us.</p>

<p>Our faculty, students, and staff join me in congratulating you! We are looking forward to welcoming you to Claremont McKenna College.</p>

<p>Sincerely,</p>

<p>Richard C. Vos
Vice President,
Dean of Admission
and Financial Aid</p>

<p>*obviously, i'm not sure if this is on everone's</p>

<p>Re. the unanimously: as my dad said, the "admissions committee" is most likely two people. And if they both vote yes, you get in. Both no, you get rejected... and I guess one of each would be a waitlist? Obviously this is slightly over-simplified because they have to make sure they don't accept too many kids, but this is pretty much how all admissions committees work. They just want to make us feel good about ourselves... and hey, it worked!</p>

<p>yeah! just two people, though? seems a bit...too few.</p>

<p>whatever.</p>
