Waitlisted

waitlisted

Accepted!!! I screamed when the video came out! :DDD I can’t even believe this after getting accepted into Brown today, along with UChicago and Northwestern.

I GOT IN!!! love u !!!

I GOT IN FOR SEAS!!! I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS IS REAL!

dang they must have accepted a lot this year o.o

If anyone is feeling sad that they got rejected, let me share my story.
I am an IMO Bronze medalist and a US citizen (who lives overseas), yet I’ve never been accepted to a US university.
I applied to 12 US unis last year for undergrad—all rejects (including GA tech with its 30% acceptance rate)
I applied to 3 US transfers this year–2 rejects so far (yale is not out yet)

So yeah. At some point I just stopped caring. That’s my advice:
What you dont care about cant hurt you :slight_smile:
