@Garyguy909 you’re wrong, they’re not releasing them all at once.
There is a tweet by MeetNYU which says that. But the blog says something else. Either way you’ll hear it all today.
Every tweet they’ve sent after that one says “throughout the day” though, I think it was just one slip up
Anyone gotten one yet? Also is it after 3 eastern time or pacific time? I’m assuming eastern but idk :-/
I don’t think they ever specified time zone. We’re east coast and no email yet.
@milesj1003 definitely eastern time as they are on the east coast.
if the before 12 rejection theory is true, then I only have 4.5 hours left of anxiety. I did not sleep last night and I even had a dream where I got a rejection
I don’t think that will be the case this year. I haven’t heard of anyone getting an email yet, so chances are the emails haven’t even started yet.
Scares me out so much. Stern and ivies… i guess it’s my last chance to get into some top schools
@geiseln - Dreams don’t have to be indicative of anything! Stay positive and hope for the best in these next few hours
Hearing back from NYU and Dartmouth today, I’m going to get so rejected lol
@geiseln I actually had a dream that my son woke me up to tell me he got in! It was so real. I woke up thinking it was true.
I’m just relieved that everything will be over in the next few days.
To all you HSers awaiting your fate…I am a father of a daughter going through it too, with some successes (safeties) and some failures (targets and reaches)…I am also a Wall Street guy who has hired lots of people…trust me, at least in business, what college you attended doesn’t matter that much to hiring managers, especially beyond your first job)…and I have worked with several hundred successful, highly-paid people and very few attended a top 20 university…in the 1980s, it mattered…in today’s world, it really doesn’t…it pains me to see my daughter and all of you get so upset about this school vs. that school…wherever you go, it will blaze by so fast and then you’ll be facing a whole balance of your life working for a living–that is what really matters…do your best, HAVE FUN!, and build up a network of people that you can tap into to get a job–especially your HS friends parents, who will probably be your best source! Good luck today and don’t make too big a deal about these outcomes! (I think I will post this on other threads too). NJDad2020
has anyone heard of any decisions going out yet?? the admissions directors blog post said they would start in the wee hours of the morning… but nobody has said anything
@NJDad2020 I totally agree and want to thank you for posting this. Please repost in other threads.
@timeforAP judging from this forum, no one has heard yet. The blog also stated they were doing it that way in order to minimize disruptions to the school day (or something to that effect) but I think this is very disruptive.
On a scale of 1 to disruptive this is pretty disruptive
I agree–there is way too much emphasis on the school name. Many, many, lesser-ranked schools attempt to carve out a niche for themselves in specialty areas, attracting students whose interests match, and elevating their rank in that specialty area. Nevertheless, as parents, we (sometimes subconsciously) instill in our kids that they should always want “the best” and then when they do, we see the stress and anxiety they are feeling when they realize they really have no control over the situation.
Kids: not getting into your #1 school does not defeat you. You only have a snapshot of the schools you have visited and have identified what you think it the “perfect” campus based on that snapshot. It’s possible that you get there and realize it’s not a good fit. And colleges have only a snapshot of the applicants and they , too, could be totally wrong about the match. IF you don’t get your first pick, and if you really believe it was the right pick, you can try to transfer in a year–get good grades and reapply. You may find, during that first year elsewhere, that you actually landed where you were supposed to.
Good luck to all of you, no matter where you land!
hey guys! i’m pretty worried now because I applied using my IB diploma (I sit the exams in May so applied with my predicted grades) and I have been checking on Albert but the standardised test scores box has not been ticked. I keep reading that if I submitted something other than my SAT it would take a while to be processed so thought it was a glitch…should I contact my careers counsellor? does anyone else who applied with IB have the same issue? would appreciate any advice/help! thank you
