@jasonkos Haha, never give up hope!! Honestly, I think I’m going to get rejected by Standford, but after NYU I’m kind of like whatever about the other schools haha
@arabm2 baby steps… baby steps…
@nativeamerikat Don’t lose hope yourself! You may have been overqualified for NYU, but Stanford may be a right fit. Nice cupcakes by the way.
@jasonkos Admissions are a finicky thing. You never know what might happen. Hope for the best!
@nativeamerikat THOSE CUPCAKES ARE LITERAL PERFECTION O perfect comfort food
@InfinityMan Thanks! I live in California, and getting out of here was a really big factor in my college search, but it looks like I’m staying in state haha
@cvelie IF WE GO TO STANFORD I’LL BAKE THEM FOR YOU
if only stanford was possible…
@InfinityMan hey thanks!! Just hope we could all get in
Got rejected by Duke after being deferred, but I got into UCLA and Berkeley I think my Stanford essays were by far my best, but the miniscule acceptance rate is really killing my vibe here haha Fingers crossed, but at least I have Berkeley!
Berkeley is better than Stanford, especially if your in state
@jasonkos Accpeted at Duke Uchicago Upenn Grinnell but rejected at Trintiy College Rhodes College UDenver and Notre Dame so yeah I scored more than 99.5% of there applicants
Good luck. My 2 cents on Berkeley vs Stanford: if you qualify for enough financial aid so that they cost about the same, or if your parents have enough saved up to pay for Stanford, pick Stanford. If money is an issue at all, pick Berkeley. No point in taking on a lot of loans or dipping into the retirement fund for Stanford over Berkeley.
@nativeamerikat I just saw the picture and I am now proposing to you
They look sooooooo good!!!
No chance for Stanford here, silly me forgot to send my new SAT scores so if I do get an acceptance email I’ll make sure to email their IT guys immediately to tell then about their software malfunction…
@AKAKHALEDBEST holy crap! u already got into such great schools! congratz!!
but yeah, I really don’t understand college admissions…
@Homeless2Harvard Did you get a likely from Harvard after all ? btw I think that you applied to all Universities where I applied
@AKAKHALEDBEST btw, did u also freak out and lost all hope when u were rejected by those schools?
why are there so many Stanford discussion threads it’s so confusing. I keep going to other ones thinking they’re this one and then thinking “where did all the pages go”
@Homeless2Harvard I think we’re moving too fast… it’s me, not you
Yikes, i’m sure it’ll turn out alright!
@nativeamerikat SO true!! I got into a school I love anyway so I don’t mind too much, it would just be a great boost of confidence haha
@Gradient I’m from Miami haha pretty far away from Cali! I’m liking Stanford a little more, just from the private university angle. I’d be ecstatic with either though, don’t get me wrong!
Do not go to Stanford, unless you are VERY abnormal.
