okay ive lurked college confidential everyday for like the past year but i never posted anything...well more specifically i lurked around colgate's cc page, not really anyone elses. well i got some news today i really needed to share with someone(s)--i just got my acceptance letter today. apparently it was fed-exed and arrived here on friday, but no one answered the door so i didn't get it till today.
and i was having panic attacks all weekend thinking i was rejected....

well anyways, i'm so excited to join the class of lucky number '13!!

Waitlisted, feeling pretty good about it, because that was by far my worst application and I got rejected from NW and USC after writing excellent apps for them.

Southwest Florida. My son was accepted on Saturday I love the personal note from Gary Ross. It made all the hard work my son put into his application worth it.

I was rejected from Colgate, Vanderbilt, and Holy Cross. Waitlisted at Washington and Lee.
Today will be another catastrophic day.

swissmiss3 - keep your chin up and good luck - from what I hear at our local high school you're in very good company.

Funny year at Colgate - I was waitlisted but got accepted at Uva and Vanderbilt - Also waitlisted at JHU, Emory, Rice, UNC. I think they were able to see into my application and know that I don't like the cold weather. Great school - congrats to all of you going!

Thanks, mattydrin, for your kind words. At least their letter was written as nicely as a person could possibly write a rejection. In fact, his letter was kinder than the rejection form-letter I got from Dartmouth, and my sister just graduated from Dartmouth in June.

Agreed swissmiss3. Dartmouth was pretty much "move on, you're out."
