<p>Are any of you thinking of applying to Bowdoin if you don’t get in to Wes?</p>
<p>I considered Bowdoin, but it is a little too far for me.</p>
<p>too cold for me, it looks beautiful though</p>
<p>I think it might be my second choice if I don’t get in to Wes (I rally hope I do). They don’t require SAT scores (mine aren’t that good) and I thought Brunswick was adorable (I visited in August though).</p>
<p>Have any of you visited Amherst/Williams?</p>
<p>I applied to their fly-in program (WOW) but wasn’t accepted</p>
<p>Amherst was nice, but it seemed a little… Stuckup? Normal?
I can’t get the right word. Not exactly preppy, but not for me. The town was beautiful though.</p>
<p>man its 4 days and im starting to feel the pressure. I cant believe its so close. I also just spoke to a friend who was choosing between williams and wesleyan for ED (now at williams and loves it) so maybe im coming to terms with the fact that being rejected from wes wont be the end of the world. although man friday has to come sooner.</p>
<p>Yeah, I’ve almost accepted that not getting accepted to Wes won’t be the end of the world. Smith, Vassar, and Skidmore are all lovely schools and I know I’d be happy at any of them. But if I get rejected I am still bringing out my “I am sad” pajama set. </p>
<p>Also, (I’m a little late on this but oh well) if we get accepted, it would be so great if we would all be friends omg. 
And I’ll end up PMing my actual name, although anyone could figure out who I am; I use acoolpanda as my username for everything.</p>
<p>yeah still not looking forward to getting rejected and having to accept that because itll be so hard in the beginning. 4 more days!</p>
<p>I’m using these next few days to finally come up with a plan b. I have schools that I like but I need to find another school that I can see myself going to. Honestly Wes is the only school at this point that I can see myself going to, but I really need to accept that if I’m not accepted I will be going somewhere else.</p>
<p>i dont think i can really do that until i get rejected</p>
<p>I have to come to terms with the rejection before it comes, I’m hoping it will make it hurt less. I have to be ready, if I am shocked by Wes rejecting me I won’t be able to handle it. I hope to get accepted, but I am definitely expecting to get rejected.</p>
<p>i think a rejection is gonna hit as hard no matter what. i’m expecting a rejection but actually getting one will crush all hope i have now</p>
<p>You are right, I keep trying to take some pressure of myself, but honestly this is the hardest week ever.</p>
<p>this is prob one of the most stressful moments of our lives but itll go by really fast. and a rejection will really hurt, but that feeling will eventually pass</p>
<p>Turns out I was put in the RD pool. I called and they switched me back. Hopefully this won’t impact my decision too much :’(</p>
<p>clearwater, thats so weird! thats great that you’re back in ed. do you know how that happened?</p>
<p>And I hope they aren’t looking on here or else they’d probably be able to identify me haha</p>
<p>I was having difficulties with my app anyway, so it’s probably partially my fault too. I’m just glad they’re nice enough to still look at my app and that I still get a decision on Friday, even if it’s rejection/deferral.</p>
