Let me release the tension a bit by telling a joke: How to drown a hipster? - Throw him/her into a mainstream…
Currently listening to Shawn Mendes’ “Something Big”, really fits the environment now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4sM3ULYtyw&list=PLXpOw3sClC4eamvkNLh8hvbHWI9w6Iiep&index=191
@lia3247 hopefully you won’t even need my advice! When I was deferred it absolutely crushed me, so much so that the deferral hurt more than the rejection I was sure would come in the spring, by which time I had come to accept that I would not get in. Weirdly enough I was accepted. I would recommend that you go to a teacher you currently have and ask them to write an additional recommendation. That’s what I did. I explained to my teacher about my deferral and why I still believed it was the right school for me. Other than absolute luck, I think that additional recommendation from a teacher with whom I had built a solid academic relationship was why I was accepted. Just remember that even if you are deferred, you are worthy. Nothing about how wonderful a student you are has changed.
I just wanna say that a college decision doesn’t decide your fate and you should not be devastated by a simple deference or denial, it only means that Cornell doesn’t think you would succeed there and you would have a better chance succeeding somewhere else. God will always leave a door open for you!
Let us prey that the website doesn’t crash the second the clock turns 7.
Current Cornell freshman here, good luck to everyone right now - I remember how this felt last year. Feel free to AMA
Here from the Brown ED chat. Good luck to everyone! Always remember, never let this decision or any college decision define your worth because you are all much better than a decision. I’m sure that all of you are strong applicants in your own right and wherever you end up you’ll excel.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE FROM A PENN ED APPLICANT!!
Good luck to everyone from washu thread!
Good luck to everyone!!! From the Brown ed thread!! Hope it goes great for everyone?
Hi I’m from the Penn ED chat! Good luck guys. I’ll be where you are in just three days!! You all deserve to go to the college of your dreams. To those accepted: CONGRATS! To those deferred/rejected: You have to love the college that loves you back. Remember that. You guys will all be fine
Best of luck

@gingerbread1999 Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I was wondering if the recommendation letter was from the same teacher that you have asked before or from a different teacher?
