<p>if u’re a rabid b-ball fan, u would love duke. they made it further than stanford this year in NCAA tourney -_-'</p>
<p>I found the brown rejection letter to be the nicest</p>
<p>they sort of delayed telling the decision until the last moment and then wished me well. I know it was a generic letter but it made me feel much better</p>
<p>I’ve accepted my decisions and am looking forward to duke… unless of course I get in to stanford or princeton. </p>
<p>I have a ray of hope because I used an essay for stanford and duke which I didn’t use for any college… it was the question about what to tell the roommate</p>
<p>oh well… we’ll see what happens</p>
<p>good luck to you guys!!!</p>
<p>stanford girls made it pretty far though… but if you’re a guys bball fan, definitely duke… not that you’d want to make your college choice based on THAT of course… haha…</p>
<p>also I heard that stanford girls “initiate” the freshman guys by kissing them at some point at the beginning of the year</p>
<p>whoa… are u serious sempitern555? where’d u hear that from?</p>
<p>and yea i’m kinda banking on stanford because the essays I wrote were unique esp. the roommate one.</p>
<p>What did you guys write about?</p>
<p>I wrote about a time I locked my grandma in the garage. I was giving my “roomate” the impression I’m not just totally serious all work and no play. I have a sense of humor in my personality. Dunno if they’ll buy it. its a risk…</p>
<p>it was in the stanford magazine a while back…but if i read correctly, it’s freshman girls and upperclass guys? don’t exactly remember, though…</p>
<p>I wish someone had actually accepted me :(</p>
<p>its in the fiske guide of colleges</p>
<p>It’s a tradition called “Full Moon on Quad”, which takes place at the first full moon. Basically, incoming Stanford females are initiated into Stanford by being kissed at midnight by a senior. Recently though, freshmen male have been able to experience the same initiation rites.</p>
<p>thats why I applied to Stanford
lol</p>
<p>wow… im glad i sent my app before deadline lol</p>
<p>haha well duke is ranked like number 5 undergrad in the nation and you get a free ipod for going</p>
