Additional Information

Ok, so I haven't put any information here and I promise that I will during XMas Break, but I just got my first major acceptance today and I'm SO happy -- 3.5 years of hard work has finally paid off.. I GOT INTO BERKELEY! Definitely one of my top choices, I can't wait to fly out for ASW on April 3rd.

Berkeley timeline:
11/25: Complete
12/11: Sent to Review
12/12: ACCEPTED via phone call from Dean Tom
I can't believe he actually called, I'm so thrilled and honored at the same time. I know he must be incredibly busy and to take the time out of his day to call was a great touch -- especially after the mass e-mail from the admissions blog he sent out today.

Harvard timeline:
Submitted: 11/23
Under Review: 12/2
TS1 Email: 12/6
TS1: 12/8
TS2: 12/15
Still in shock. So unbelievably excited, I can't even put it into words.

12/18: In at Georgetown! They mailed a small greeting-card type envelope to my home address. The personalized note from Dean Cornblatt was very nice. Georgetown would be a perfect fit as I love D.C. -- hopefully they'll send some finaid my way!

12/18: In at Yale.. Wow. So shocked, I blurted out "WHAT?" and Mr. Craig assured me that it was NOT a prank call.
Harvard and Yale in the same week? Um.. O-M-G.

Harvard! Monday, December 15th, 2008 at 10:12 pm
Congrats again! Just wait till you get your binder, it'll make you love the school even more! I also didn't pick up the call because I was in a different time zone and sleeping, which worked out fabulously because then I had the voicemail to play to my family. I did write a quick thank you to him, but I'm sure it doesn't matter either way. Hopefully I'll see you at an admit weekend somewhere! jujubean

so very cool to get multiple acceptances in one week. do you have a top pick, or are you just overwhelmed? Yale had been my favorite for tons of reasons, but now I'm all "ooh, options!" LAS
