<p>Hahahahaha, I should order one from them. That way, a mailman will have to drive, which will increase pollution, AND I will burn the letter.</p>
<p>I don’t hate Stanford anymore though. I’m still enamored with it, but I realize that a ton of other schools could also make me happy.</p>
<p>my thing is I never loved Yale. I only liked it as a friend.</p>
<p>But you wouldn’t want to be rude to that friend, would you?
Seriously though, I know what it feels like to want to write a letter. But it’s not a good idea. You could write it and not send it though?</p>
<p>I think I’ll do that. I was never really serious about sending it</p>
<p>I’m just annoyed. Have the guts to just reject me if you don’t want me. Deferral is sooo…incomplete</p>
<p>Yale is keeping you hanging in there a little longer so the acceptance in April is more gratifying.</p>
<p>^^^assuming you get an acceptance. I know the end result will just be a rejection letter…so why wait for it</p>
<p>Hahaha, trust me. Rejection sucks more. Deferral is like “Oh! You have potential! We want to wait to see what amazing things you do! You caught our eye, and you’re not obvious rejection material! Yippee!!”</p>
<p>Rejection is like “Oh, well, I mean, you were okay. But not really that good. Okay, now don’t bother us anymore!”</p>
<p>@rocket6louise: But of course, they don’t have the guts to reject you because they know they’ll probably desperately want you in March:)</p>
<p>well I’m glad your confident Calico…maybe you’ll be right</p>
<p>^haha, of course I’m always right… obviously;)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I like your attitude. It probably rings false coming from someone who wasn’t deferred/rejected in the EA round, but right before I looked at my MIT decision, I decided, that whatever it said (and since before I started my application, I expected to be rejected) I would be okay, and I wouldn’t hate MIT. I’d just understand that we weren’t a match, because I had said everything I wanted to say in the essays, and if MIT, or any school, didn’t want me after seeing them, we were probably both better off not being together. I hope I can reach that point before I look at every decision, because I have the distinct feeling that my luck will run out soon and very soon.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>But I didn’t really say everything I needed to in my essays. Therein lies the problem. I think the rest of my application was fairly solid. Congrats on MIT, though. Wow. :)</p>
<p>^^ Nice job on MIT! It’s my top choice. I would have applied early but I’m not a US citizen.</p>
<p>
HA.
Dear Stanford,
please send me 1 million rejection letters for me to BURN.
ps I HATE YOU</p>
<p>I got deferred from Georgetown, MIT, and Caltech.</p>
<p>I’m thinking about sending my deferral letter back to MIT with a note that says “can I have a different one?”</p>
<p>
Oh see I love yale as a…lover ;)</p>
<p>^me too…</p>
<p>I just reread my “Why Yale?” short answer and realized it is the most generic thing I’ve ever written [res colleges + shopping period, and that’s it…]. Even my answers for “Why __?” questions for other colleges were tons more unique than the one I wrote for yale. aww 
</p>
<p>I think that hanging out on this thread after SCEA apps were sent in made me fall in love with yale, haha.</p>
<p>I didn’t apply SCEA to Yale, but I did EA to UChicago and got deferred :(. My deferral letter is also sitting right above my desk, just like Stupefy’s and it sure as hell has motivated me :).</p>
