**Official Class of 2008 Decisions Thread**

[KBaher]

Let's try to eliminate all discussion posts within this thread and keep all posts strictly decisions. Just copy/paste the following list and take out all the spaces between the brackets and enter your stats.

The reason I only want decisions posted within this thread is for the future classes who want to see who was accepted/rejected, and it starts to look cluttered if every other post is "Omg, when will I hear?" So if you have a personal question, make a separate thread and you will get an answer!

General Comments: I wasn't very impressed with Gonzaga's acceptance package. It was very bare and didn't offer anything exciting that makes me go "Oooh, I want to go here!" So today I sent in my "I reject you" postcard. I visited Gonzaga twice and wasn't thrilled by it. It's not for me, and it is way too expensive.
