<p>etched, you have such a way with words! You’re amazing and I’m almost positive Barnard sees that in you :)</p>
<p>Thanks, guys!</p>
<p>But know that you guys are beautiful, too, because you inspired me to write it :)</p>
<p>I’m going to go to bed now. Hopefully, I’ll be able to sleep. For those who are having trouble: count sheep, picture yourself vacationing on an island, watch some funny tv…basically aim for amusement.</p>
<p>Good luck everyone, and I’m crossing my fingers for us to hear some good news tomorrow!</p>
<p>Night everyone! good luck tomorrow!</p>
<p>Hi everyone & congratulations to those who have gotten in so far!</p>
<p>And yes, I agree that we shouldn’t lose hope. I’m right up with there with those who can’t log in, and I’m not as worried about that as I thought I would be. Everyone here is so passionate about Barnard, it just doesn’t make any sense to me that so few of us would be accepted. I’ll leave the true cheering to etched (you wonderful person you!), but I just thought I’d throw my hat into the hope bag. :)</p>
<p>Oh, also, is there anyone else who <em>did</em> apply for finaid but <em>didn’t</em> get this Financial Aid Portal email? Cause I have definitely never seen any sign of such a thing and that kind of freaks me out…</p>
<p>Oh, yay, etched is here! I was worried, heh. ;)</p>
<p>Etched makes wonderful points. And let me just add this - since all of you get along so well and since many of you were accepted by Bryn Mawr, why not go there and be together? Bryn Mawr is a fabulous school that takes education verrry seriously. Gorgeous campus, wonderful traditions and interscholastic classes with Swarthmore and Haverford. (No slouch they.) In addition, it has graduated some leading lights including the current president of Harvard. And if that weren’t enough, there is a strict non competition policy among women. (I’m afraid I can’t say the same for Barnard.)</p>
<p>Besides, it doesn’t matter as much as you think. Thirty years ago, I was rejected from every college except one. I went on to have a dream career, handsome husband, great kids and beautiful life. You wanna know when college comes up? Maybe at parties as a casual ice breaker. No one - including your future employers - really cares. It’s what you MAKE of college that counts. </p>
<p>Be happy!</p>
<p>I disappeared last night because, after having like 13 failed login attempts on my phone and a subsequent crying fit while I was getting my prom dress hemmed, I couldn’t deal with the internet. I called my really good friend who goes to NYU and she happened to be with a friend from Columbia. Her friend said that a friend that goes to Barnard had a lot of trouble logging into her thing last year, even after she got the acceptance. Even though this is me not wanting to admit that I, once again, had my dreams ripped away from me, I think there’s still a little bit of hope for us. Maybe not. I’m losing hope quickly.</p>
<p>no mail from Barnard or Wellesley today…
:(:(</p>
<p>Hey, guys, remember, it’s not over till it’s over! I honestly don’t believe this pin thing has anything to do with acceptance - too many people who have gotten <em>in</em> in previous years weren’t able to access it, and too many wonderful people here are having the same problem. As Journey once said oh-so-epically: DON’T STOP BELIEVING!!!</p>
<p>I’ve been stalking the mail box all morning. The mail came in and there was a postal service box for me. But it wasnt an acceptance for Barnard. I really dont know what to think now. I am hanging by the words by etched right now.</p>
<p>Wow, I’m flipping out by now. Congrats to everyone who made it. I’m pretty sure I didn’t. I live in NYC and still haven’t received a letter and neither have two of my friends. All of my friends who have received theirs were accepted though, which I take as a very bad sign. But know what, I’ll keep a positive attitude anyway.</p>
<p>Good luck though guys. We’re down to the wire now. I kind of just found this thread and wasn’t here for the whole process but I’m still hoping all of you get in.</p>
<p>Last night I woke up at 3am to realize that today is Saturday and that it is unlikely that they’ll be adding more password IDs today if we were going to go with that theory. So…either it’s a fluke that so many of us aren’t able to get on (I really, really, really hope this is true) or…I don’t want to think about it.</p>
<p>Then I fell asleep and dreamed I could log on. Meh.</p>
<p>definitely rejected. i have this feeling that I am. did anyone get rejected officially yet, just wondering?</p>
<p>No rejection letter yet. I feel the same way because many ppl here on the thread have already got in. I really dont know what to think. We still have Monday and Friday.</p>
<p>I mean Monday or Tuesday. So try not to jump to conclusions yet.</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>I’m trying not to either. But it’s…hard.</p>
<p>Rejected… unsurprising</p>
<p>Bustles: are you just saying that or did you actually get a letter?</p>
<p>I didn’t recieve anything today from Barnard. I live in PA.</p>
<p>I’m assuming this means rejection.</p>
