<p>Yeah, its where you can check you’re status and eventually your admissions decision. </p>
<p><a href=“https://webapps2.rice.edu/selfserve/twbkwbis.P_GenMenu?name=p_ugadmmenu[/url]”>https://webapps2.rice.edu/selfserve/twbkwbis.P_GenMenu?name=p_ugadmmenu</a></p>
<p>This is where you would login IF you did have a id and password… I would email undergrad admissions and just say you never remember receiving one</p>
<p>For son:</p>
<p>1) Rice, CalTech, Stanford, Rochester, Lawrence, Wisconsin</p>
<p>2) Rochester (scholarship), Wisconsin, Lawrence (scholarship), waitlisted at CalTech</p>
<p>3) Loved the visit, res colleges, strong engineering/computer science programs</p>
<p>It would be great if decisions came out this week, but I don’t think anyone should count on it.</p>
<ol>
<li>SMU, Baylor, A&M, UT, SLU, Creighton, Drexel, Notre Dame EA, WUSTL</li>
<li>All of them but UT (waitlisted/capped & I still don’t know why). Rice is the last one to hear from. </li>
<li>It has biomed engineering, it’s in Texas, good people, and it’s the right size.</li>
</ol>
<p>I’ll be extremely surprised if I get into Rice. I only wrote one, single, measly sentence for the “why this major” essay. I thought it was short answer, so I bet they had a laugh when they saw my “essay.” Plus, after seeing that my own state flagship hates me, I’m not expecting anymore good news from within the state of Texas. Eh, I hope the decision comes out this week. Even if it’s a rejection, I hate the stress of waiting.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Brown, Duke, Johns Hopkins, Northwestern, WashU St. Louis, Vanderbilt, Emory, URochester</p></li>
<li><p>Emory (scholarship), URochester (scholarship + research grant), waitlisted from WashU :(</p></li>
<li><p>Godfather went there, Res colleges, focus on undergraduates w/ strong research, Sheppard School of Music, easy to major in more then one degree, Beer Bike (lol)</p></li>
</ol>
<p>@Churd23 - Thanks for the info. I actually just searched through my email archive and found my ID and PIN. Wow, I feel smart right now?</p>
<p>So if our decisions are going to be posted online…what section of the website?</p>
<p>For those who are seeing this thread now… This is the original question! Let this roll.</p>
<ol>
<li>WHICH OTHER COLLEGES DID YOU APPLY TO?</li>
<li>WHERE DID YOU GET ACCEPTED SO FAR?</li>
<li>WHY DID YOU APPLY TO RICE?</li>
</ol>
<p>For my son:
