Maybe it's just causality, but today when randomly grabbing for a t-shirt to wear today, I noticed my 'What are my chances?' CC shirt that I hadn't worn for a while. I threw it on today (not for the first time, of course), and what do you know, 12pm PST when I was refreshing my Tufts application status page, my decision becomes available right before my eyes. 5 seconds later, and I got into Tufts School of Engineering.

I definitely wouldn't have gotten in without advice from CC, and the CC mug and Chances shirt have certainly helped along the way. Thanks CC.

'08Holla....that CC shirt must have been good karma!

Congratulations on getting into Tufts! They accepted just 25% this year. Tufts is my alma mater and I loved the school and it had been my first choice. I now interview perspective applicants for Tufts in fact. My husband went there too. I hope you consider going and have as a great of a time there as a Jumbo that I did.

I'd really like to thank CC for helping me with college.
Searching this board is the most helpful thing ANYONE can do.
This is better than any counselor.

As a first generation student, I started my senior year not knowing anything about colleges (e.g. I thought USC was part of the UC system!!)

But with aid of this amazing community and helpful posters, I've made so many informed decisions regarding colleges and the whole college process that I'm really grateful for CC.

THANKS GUYS!

Wow, '08Holla, that's a great story! We may need to add something to the product description like, "Now includes admission guarantee! Works in minutes!" Congrats!

And thanks for the kind comments, Halcykon et al, it's that kind of feedback that makes the time all of us spend here worthwhile!

I found out about CC quite late in the application process (late Feb this year LOL), but it was still quite helpful. Thanks for a great site/forum, only wish I had found out about this sooner.

Great job to everyone for making it through these tough couple of months!

I want to give a big shout out to AnthonyG, who kept the servers running Monday night, even as everyone on the planet was trying to get into CC. Great job!
