Reflection
Strengths: i thought my essay was pretty strong along with short answer.
Weaknesses: definitely my gpa and sat.
Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: I feel that they took the time to read into everything I was doing.
I didn’t get my major however, which is fine. That probably means I was just barely accepted thankfully.
Where else were you accepted/waitlisted/rejected: accepted to umbc deferred from uva

I was super anxious for my letter, now that I’ve gotten accepted it feels like a huge weight has gotten off my shoulders.
