Emory Scholars Date

<p>lol not yet - it’s still days away</p>

<p>Surely we should wait until Saturday morning for that? I’d make it, but I’m afraid of jynxing myself ><</p>

<p>lol I’m scared to post stats cause people will tell me either that I will/will not get in…and the former would make it harder if I didnt’ get it and the latter would depress me either way xD</p>

<p>it’s like 1 day away.
…assuming the results come out at 12:00AM like they did for ED. I really hope this is the case!!
I’m so excited… I want to finally get in to college!</p>

<p>i think im going to call again tomorrow during school to make sure it is saturday because i dont think i could handle the disappointment if it ended up not being saturday. Oh and also did any of you guys receive a notification on opus at all because i havent’.</p>

<p>Nope! you can rest safely cause none of us have =)</p>

<p>sweet now just one more grueling day…hopefully we’ll have another tornado warning tomorrow so i miss school again and then ill play xbox til 12 on friday and BAM! decision time</p>

<p>is there anything on opus that indicates emory scholar?</p>

<p>26 more hours until I am officially rejected from Emory scholars!</p>

<p>w00t!</p>

<p>This is so nervewracking :(</p>

<p>What’s worse is that finalist status doesn’t come out until mid-February. And there’s NOTHING you can do to augment your application, unlike most semifinalist -> finalist competitions. Sigh…so long to wait. I want it so badly, but rejection seems impending!</p>

<p>yeah; but it’s a little bit better because it’s more subjective…based more on essays and stuff rather than the whole package? </p>

<p>sat scores and stuff just seem…too cold and arbitrary to me so if I get past semifinalist, I feel like my chances might go up for finalist…</p>

<p>I guess, but I have no idea how my recs/essays turned out. Well, essays = alright, I guess. Recs = who knows? Love-hate relationships probably aren’t exactly the best thing to have with your principal and teachers…I’m just hoping they were in good moods when they wrote them :D</p>

<p>so have we found out that the decision will be unveiled at midnight on friday or the morning after. Oh and I think we should get a notification via email or opus to check our admissions on opus. Plus if that lady at emory lied to us…</p>

<p>dna3- do you know for a fact that ED results came out at midnight?
Ahh i kind of wish i hadn’t looked at this thread. I was expecting another week before we found out…tomorrow’s going to be a long day</p>

<p>goolsci: I applied EDI and got my acceptance at midnight.</p>

<p>Remember everybody, this is just school. Emory isn’t the most important thing in the world. Don’t worry too much.</p>

<p>Haha, indeed. Except it kind of is…I hope we all end up going to Emory and becoming BFFs - what do y’all think?</p>

<p>Actually, I think it’s just the waiting that’s the worst part. I regret calling now, because to know that it’s Saturday morning and that I have to wait an entire day and a half is absolute torture.</p>

<p>BFFs it is!</p>

<p>While I really like Emory (hence applying ED), I’m sure I’d be just as happy at scores of other colleges.</p>

<p>We ought to exchange facebook info with whoever ends up going (or not going for that matter). I know the EDI Decision thread had a good bit of people posting their FBs.</p>

<p>At least since I know I have no chance at a full-ride, and semi-finalists since last year get at least $10k Liberal Arts Scholarships, tomorrow will be pretty much the end of the road for me. Either I get semi then inevitably thrown out before finalists (with a nice little consolidation prize) or don’t make semi at all (and can stop obsessively checking college forums). It’s a win-win.</p>

<p>Consolidation prize?</p>

<p>Don’t you mean consolation prize? lol</p>

<p>lol, and that’s why I don’t expect to get to finalist round…</p>

<p>Man, I’m an idiot.</p>

<p>xD nooo jmw, you can’t give up!
that leaves little hope for the rest of us.</p>

<p>the power of positive thinking!
and praying!</p>
