High School Class of 2017

The wait for EA results is killing me… And man, I really hate these supplements. Glad I got into UT Austin (I knew I would, but it’s just nice being accepted somewhere).

I really can’t wait for this all to be over so I can actually resume my normal life.

thanks! @ThatOneWeirdGuy that is how i wrote my essays for ucs/my early action school, and eventually they became actual thoughts! it’s just hard because i’ve been working with shorter word counts & the longer word count is throwing me off a little. plus, i can’t help but feel that everything that comes out of my mouth SUPPLEMENTS MY IMAGE AS A WALKING CLICHE OOPS

Almost have 5/10 done!! Working on my USC app. Then after this, my Notre Dame one. If I’m on schedule, I should have submitted all apps no later than Dec 28.

I’m considering applying to USC for the merit scholarships…

2/15+? I may add/drop some schools…

Fortunately, I’m close to being done and submitting another 4 apps, so it’s almost 6/15!!

I admire you all for applying to so many schools and having to keep up with so much info I’m only applying to 6 schools and am nearly drowning in responsibility

I’ve only applied to 2 schools, and got accepted to my match/safety earlier this week. Now I’m just anxiously waiting for my (likely) denial or deferral from my dream/reach school in December! :slight_smile:

my ED decision from my dream school comes out in about 3 weeks…the wait has been killing me! good luck all!

@thecolourist what is your dream school?

when we apply to USC by December 1 for the merit scholarships, do we submit only the Common App and supplements by that date or also SAT/ACT scores?

@TheTennisNinja Amherst College. It’s a long shot, I know, but I’m absolutely in love with it!

Hey guys, if the stress of college apps and the impending early action/early decision releases is getting to you, there is a class of 2017 group chat on groupme! PM me with your groupme-associated number of email address if you’re interested in joining! :smiley:

In other news, I applied to Boston University today! Need to put the finishing touches on my USC and UC apps though…

@thecolourist I’m sure you have a great chance of getting in!

@TheTennisNinja haha nice akali profile picture :^)
I’m hoping after college apps I can finally do stuff I want like playing video games lol (no pun intended) and reading books >.>

@ambitiousgeek same. haven’t had the time to play lol in ages.

Hi everyone! How are you guys?

I only read 2 pages before this, but congratulations to those that got accepted into their dream colleges :slight_smile: I was on this board just 3-4 weeks ago stressing about applications, but I’m so relived I actually got into my dream college! I feel like a weight has been lifted of my shoulders… I’m still applying to more though! What about you all?

@Jas1999 congrats!! Which school? I have gotten into the 3 state schools I applied to and I’d be perfectly fine going there. I’m still planning on applying to selective schools for RD.

@Jas1999 CONGRATULATIONS! Ugh, that’s so huge, so happy for you (and a little jealous, haha). Which school??
@ZBlue17 I know how you feel! I applied for my reaches, but I’d be happy going to the local schools and paying minimal tuition as well, so it’s a good feeling to be able to accept either outcome. Best of luck with your RD schools! :heart:

@ZBlue17 @SingHar17 Thanks guys, and congratulations on the acceptances, and good luck for your other applications, ZBlue! My dream school is Towson! I knew some people there and they said that they loved it, and when I went to the college tour it felt absolutely perfect for me. I was way too happy when I got the letter, haha :slight_smile:

Also good luck SingHar, hope for the best for you!

I’m feeling so uncreative when it comes to supplement essays ugh I just want to be done with apps!!
