Hello all:

I am in the same situation as you guys. I was at first ecstatic that I was accepted to what may be one the best schools on the West Coast, but when I read the “Conditions of Admission,” the feeling turned into paralyzing terror. For me, it is two courses I said I would take in Spring, which I could not do (due to college not offering them, etc.). the situation may be compounded for me, because I am an out-of-state transfer student.

I have the same counselor as killmyentourage; so I got the same “come back Wednesday” response (aghh!). I don’t want to sound rude, but deciding to leave after the weekend admission results are posted is mean for students who have issues that “can have their admission offer withdrawn” (according to the FAQs), especially after working for two years to get to this point. In any case, I sent a large email to Angie as well; still haven’t got a reply yet. :/

I’ll post updates as they come in. Hopefully, my story will help calm and reassure other students in the same boat as us.
