<p>okay y’all saw my stats 2 pages back…i got my NMF notification in february so it wasnt on my app…should i bother appealing? i kinda wanna know how i didnt get in when my stats are better than a lot of peoples who got accepted and i reread my essays and they were wellwritten</p>

<p>im really not that upset just kinda like, ‘wow okay’ cause God has a reason for everything so it just was not meant to be, i kinda wanna appeal though just to know WHY</p>

<p>you should appeal!!! you are a national merit finalist!!! (ppl get half of the tuition off for that!!! )</p>
