To accepted students: who's thinking about rejecting Stanford?

Colleges & Universities Stanford University
1

<p>As an individual who is sitting on the pergatory of the waitlist… who’s NOT accepting their admit to Stanford or who is getting to weigh other amazing options?</p>

2

<p>I was accepted to Yale and Stanford. I want to go to Yale but my parents want Stanford… =/</p>

3

<p>Same as llpitch; i want to go to stanford but yale gave me more money…hopefully stanford will match.</p>

4

<p>for me it’s between Stanford &Howard</p>

5

<p>^Howard University? You mean the one in Washington DC? I hated it when I visited with my high school =/
(or… did you mean Harvard University?)</p>

<p>Um, for me its down to Stanford, USC w/ half tuition scholarship (possibly), and UMD College Park w/ full ride</p>

<p>It’s down to money basically, and what my parents are willing to pay.</p>

6

<p>Stanford or Yale. I still have to do visits and then i’ll choose.</p>

7

<p>It’s between Madison (full-ride) and Stanford for me. I’ve never been to Stanz before, so I’m going to make my decision after Admit Weekend…I am sure I will love it, but my parents don’t want to commit until I see the real thing (which I heard is 10X better in person than in pictures, which is hard to believe). Sorry waitlisters!</p>

<p>for me, it’s between Columbia and Yale. I’m almost certain I’ll be rejecting Stanford. My parents insisted that I apply there, and when I got in they were ecstatic - I live a few hours away so they prefer Stanford to NYC (Columbia) or New Haven</p>

<p>^^Stanford PWNS Columbia and Yale! ;0!</p>

10

<p>All this talk about rejecting Stanford seems blasphemous</p>

11

<p>Me! Good luck for waitlist people.</p>

12

<p>im not certain that ill be accepting because of that lovely 200,000 price tag…berkeley and ucla are sound really good because of that…</p>

13

<p>Oh there is hope for waitlisters… (sort of.)</p>

14

<p>i too am on the waitlist, but I have a friend who’s turning down Stanford for WashU!</p>

15

<p>I’m not. Although I do love Cornell. I just can’t turn down Palo Alto, CA. lol. And Stanford just has a definite edge, however slight, in the name recognition/prestige competition over Cornell. So I’m definitely going with Stanford. I can’t wait!</p>
