<p>oh my! congrats!!! Tufts is amazing.</p>
<p>Thank you canto :)</p>
<p>Congrats Neethus1! I was accepted to Barnard but Waitlisted at Tufts. Living proof that college admissions can be a crapshoot⦠good luck!</p>
<p>Can anyone else comment on their Financial Aid package??.. I talked to the Barnard FA office on the phone today and the lady wouldnāt budge when I basically begged her to reconsider my package.</p>
<p>Yeah, mine is a bit tough too. (Well, compared to what Wellesley and Bryn gave me, anyway.) I donāt know what to say though, since financial aid differs for every case. They gave me $34,042 in grant money.</p>
<p>neethus! I am so happy for you!!! That is amazing! See, things worked out! :)</p>
<p>Iāve fallen in love with Bryn Mawr. If I am able to get more financial aid and go there I know I will be very, very happy. Things are going to be okay for all of us. They WILL work out for everyone. </p>
<p>Thanks for everyone and how supportive and terrific youāve been all throughout this process. Letās still go to lunch in NYC someday though. Kay?</p>
<p>p.s. etched, where are you going?</p>
<p>congrats to all, in about a month We will have picked our schools.</p>
<p>Thank you inasummer :D</p>
<p>Iām really ecstatic myself. I just hope my financial aid package comes through - otherwise, I wonāt be able to afford it.</p>
<p>Itās Smith or Bryn for meā¦OH DECISIONS. :|</p>
<p>Wellesley, Bryn, or Barnard here. (Bryn > Smith,
)</p>
<p>Anyone wanna help me decide?</p>
<p>Itās between Barnard, Wellesley and Washington&Lee(full ride) >_<</p>
<p>^ Whoa, are you serious? Washington & Lee for sure! Itās an INCREDIBLE school and itās free!!!</p>
<p>Hey, ladies! </p>
<p>Iām determined to post my 100th post here, in this beloved thread that helped me through the Anxiety (with a capital A) of the stupid waiting for the stupid answers. Barnard itself will be lost, but I find that after the fun I had reading and writing in this thread, Iām really mostly sad that we wonāt have an Anxiety Thread Club all together. I mean, Iām not one to cry over colleges. Like etched likes to say, they donāt define who we are or what weāre capable of.</p>
<p>Anyway, I really wanna know which schools you guys decide to attend after all, and good luck to those who were accepted and planning to go!</p>
<p>inasummertown, Iām probably going to go to Beloit. I ended up getting rejected from all of my coastal schools, so I figure Iām meant to stay in the midwest. </p>
<p>neethus, congrats on Tufts!</p>
<p>simply lily, aww! Iāll definitely miss the people in this thread, too. Do you think itād be possible to change the group title on Facebook or perhaps create a new group?</p>
<p>Good luck to all of you ā wherever you guys end up!
Hereās to four excellent years of college! Youāll all do fabulously, like you have up to this point.</p>
<p>Thanks etched
Iām really excited.</p>
<p>I wasnāt as active as many other Barnard lovers in this thread, but I used to come by every day. Iām going to either Converse College or UNC-Chapel Hill (go Tar Heels!), but whichever school I end up at, Iām definetely applying for Barnard again as a transfer applicant two years later with better GPA and ACT scores. I still feel bitter about getting flat-rejected from Barnard, but glad to know that Iām going somewhere ![]()
Anyway, congratulations '09 seniors, you guys rock!</p>
<p>^ UNC is a wonderful school!!! You should be proud :)</p>
<p>it is, indeed! I was unaware of it until very recently because I live so close to the school and visit the campus pretty much every day for food/piano practice/homework/just chilling out etc etc. While 10-15% of the seniors from our school go to UNC every year, many others want to move out of Chapel Hill as well, and I admit that I was among them
But now that I got into UNC and am getting to know hundreds and thousands of incoming freshmen all excited about fall, I couldnāt help but change my mind.
Still, Barnard will always exist somewhere inside my heart :)</p>
<p>neethus, congrats on Tufts! thatās such great news :)</p>
<p>for me, itās either vassar, wesleyan, or emory. the financial aid packages were more or less the same, so I really have no idea which one Iāll end up at. plus, thereās that faint glimmer of hope of moving from the waitlist to the admitted list at Barnard, though I try to ignore itā¦</p>
<p>Pekingnese, Iād choose Barnard. I mean, where do you really want to go? You wanted Barnard, you applied, you wrote in the Barnard threads, and you got in! I think it seems like youāve always wanted Barnard.</p>
