The Official ED/EA Thread

<p>Yeah, schoolwork is just not getting done this week.</p>

<p>I didn’t apply ED to any schools because I really am not completely sure where I want to go, but I did apply EA to Pace University. Not because I don’t think I wouldn’t have gotten in otherwise…just so I’d be considered for the best financial aid and all that.</p>

<p>School - Pace University
When You Expect to Hear - Sometime this month
How, Where, When, and With whom you plan to receive your decision - In the mail, at home, with…my family, I guess? I don’t know. When it happens, it happens.
What You Will do if Accepted/ Rejected (or Waitlisted):
Accepted - …be happy?
Deferred\Rejected - Be surprised, because my stats go way beyond what is required for Pace, but shrug and keep working on other apps.</p>

<p>Although at this point, I don’t even know if my Pace app will REACH Pace. I have quite the application horror story, but that’s in the thread I made up, appropriately titled “College Application Horror Stories!”</p>

<p>phst. what is this school you speak of? </p>

<p>I like to play in my mind…lahlah…deedum…la la. AHHHHH!! I need a Kebree update!!!</p>

<p>ED II</p>

<p>School: Middlebury (l’ecole de mes reves…)
Find Out: February 12 (Saturday) at at 8:00AM online
I probably won’t sleep the night before - I’ll haunt the CC board grasping for any shreds of hope I can find, agonize on IM with my friends, and consume about six cartons of Diet Coke.</p>

<p>At 8:00 on the dot, I’ll go straight to the website…and I’ll probably take about six hours to get myself to click the link. Then, of course, the link won’t work, because my computer sucks. I’ll proceed to anxiously click “back” and “forward” about a THOUSAND times, and FINALLY, the screen will pop up when i least expect it, and I’ll suffer a massive heart attack after glancing at whatever appears on teh screen.</p>

<p>If accepted…first I’ll faint. Then I’ll blast something really happy - I thought “Walking on Sunshine,” perhaps - throughout my entire house. I’ll instantly call everyone I can think of as I go on a Midd shopping spree that I’ve been rather impractically saving for in t he past few weeks…sweatshirts, window stickers, etc etc etc</p>

<p>If deferred…I’ll be thankful that my app got this far…but I’ll still be devastated and full of anxiety. Will probably curl up in angst with chocolate ice cream and bad emo music, and start writing some Sartre-esque existential rant. “Hell is college admissions…”</p>

<p>If rejected… meh, I don’t want to think about it. I’ll suppose I’ll get over it, go to a good school, and have a nice life. But that consoling reality won’t be apparent for quite some time. again…I don’t want to think about it.</p>

<p>haha, i hope i’m the only one who’s not this obsessed…</p>
