<p>Perhaps we want a deferred thread to talk about it and the process over the next few months? We already sorta know each other :)</p>
<p>Cedar, I have just started a RD Discussion thread.</p>
<p>I was deferred, and I would definitely be interested in keeping up with any other students in the same situation!</p>
<p>I would be cool with keeping this thread for those deferred :o</p>
<p>If that’s okay, that is.</p>
<p>If deferred students have a camaraderie that they want to continue, that’s great. And you can participate with your fellow RD candidates on the other Discussion thread as well :).</p>
<p>So where are y’all applying to now?</p>
<p>I’ve always planned on applying to Princeton, Columbia, and Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt’s already complete, but I still need to do almost everything for Pton and CU.</p>
<p>Already been accepted to Clemson though, so I guess I’m in a better spot than most :)</p>
<p>I’ve already applied to the University of Washington, the University of British Columbia, and the University of Oklahoma. I’ve been accepted to the last one and received a full tuition scholarship, so that’s good 
I even got into the honors college there.</p>
<p>I’ve just decided to submit an app to Stanford, but that means I have 10 days to write a ton of stuff. This’ll be fun.</p>
<p>Any of you guys planning on submitting an update to Yale?</p>
<p>I set the school record and applied to 17 schools. I’m not crazy, I have my reasons ahah. But they are all submitted already. Yale, Harvard, Columbia, Penn, Dartmouth, Brown, UChicago, Wesleyan, Williams, Amherst, Villanova, Providence, Fairfield, UConn, Colby, Holy Cross, and Bentley.</p>
<p>SCEA obviously made me apply RD to all of them, but I received a letter from Villanova yesterday stating that “despite your RD application, we are pleased to inform you of your early action acceptance.” </p>
<p>So I’m into a college! Woohoo!</p>
<p>^We have a bunch of schools in common! Potentially cause 17 covers a lot of ground, hehe.</p>
<p>ealdi94, seriously!? That’s pretty amazing, haha. I guess your application was just so amazing that they couldn’t pass it up ;)</p>
<p>@ealdi94, thank you for applying to 17 so I don’t feel as crazy. I obviously have my common app done. And some of these supplemental essays done, but nothing is finished completely/submitted. </p>
<p>Harvard, Princeton, Brown, Cornell, Georgetown, Duke, Tufts, George Washington, William and Mary, UVa, University of Denver. 11 RD, 12 over all.</p>
<p>DU, Harvard, William and Mary are pretty much done unless I end up changing things in my essays. Princeton and Tufts I’m in the midsts. The beautiful thing is the Yale supplement allowed me to write a great anecdotal essay covering theater and music (when I want to major in political science) that I can use for many of these colleges :D</p>
<p>The thing I liked about the Yale supplement was that it forced me to have 2 500-word essays, so for Stanford, I could pick the one I liked best and tweak it a bit.</p>
<p>Yeah everyone thinks I’m insane for applying to 17 but my rationale is that I’ll a) increase my chances of getting into one of the Ivy’s/mini Ivy’s or b) get a really good scholarship from another school. I’d be happy at any college on my list though, so that’s good.</p>
<p>And yes it is so fulfilling knowing that I actually got in somewhere already. Villanova is a great school too so I’m pretty psyched about that…it was such a surprise when the letter came.</p>
