<p>2) Why do you think that?
Stanford is my top choice, by far.</p>
<p>3) When do you think admissions will be released (date + time)?
Wishful thinking: Tuesday afternoon. (In reality: not soon enough!)</p>

I don’t even know. I think if I actually get in I will do something crazy out of sheer happiness.</p>

<p>1) What percent chance do you think you have of being admitted?
About 20% perhaps</p>
<p>2) Why do you think that?
I’ve got high SAT’s, done some good stuff, and not applying for FinAid. I also thought that the essays I wrote for Stanford were by far my best.</p>
<p>3) When do you think admissions will be released (date + time)?
2day for sure.</p>
<p>4) What will you do to celebrate if you get in?

Bit sad perhaps. Then wait for Ivies on Wednesday, and go to MIT instead =)</p>

3.) tomorrow? please!
4.) tell all my friends who didn’t apply then tactfully ask those who did
5.) wait for other decisions</p>
<p>Does applying for FinAid truly put you in favor of admission?</p>
<p>1) What percent chance do you think you have of being admitted?
Maybe 20%?</p>
<p>2) Why do you think that?
I was accepted to Pomona and Wesleyan, waitlisted at Chicago and Swarthmore. I’m a very strong applicant, but probably am not unique enough. My school sends a lot of people to school like (and including) Stanford though. I liked my Stanford essays a lot, too.</p>
<p>3) When do you think admissions will be released (date + time)?
I’m liking the whole Tuesday at 3pm PST…but I’m making myself expect the worst (April 1).</p>
<p>4) What will you do to celebrate if you get in?
Normal stuff: smile a lot, scream, etc.</p>
<p>5) What if you don’t get in?
Eh, I’ll get over it. I don’t expect to and I’m not even sure about Stanford. But I’ll still be sad for sure.</p>
<p>^^you mean does asking for their money make them want to accept you? I would guess not. But maybe they see a poorer background as being character building or something… who knows</p>
<p>@tetsure</p>
<p>Stanford is need-blind. Your ability, or lack thereof, to pay will not affect the decision they make.</p>
<p>@Nerdlings That is me exactly.</p>
