12/16: Just finished my last app, W&M. Now the true waiting game begins.
12/22: I wish I could pull myself away from LSN and TLS . . . I'm genuinely hoping to start hearing back in January, it seems like February and beyond=rejection. In review/committee at Santa Clara and UW. Complete Loyola, L&C, W&L, waiting on Davis and W&M.
12/25: How neurotic am I? . . . Went complete at Davis 12/23 :)
1/6: Complete at W&M. Hopefully I'll be getting responses by next week.
1/9: Status checker says decision was sent from Loyola! Hopefully I'll be getting that early next week. Also heard that L&C started sending out acceptances, hoping to hear back from them soon too!
1/31: Acceptance at L&C - although I went to decision over two weeks ago. Still waiting on everyone else, but I'm happy to start the cycle positively.
2/9: Finally got the Santa Clara letter, although considering even L&C gave me more money, I'll probably be withdrawing soon. Recent news includes the 2/6 decision letter at UW fiasco - apparently that meant nothing. Still waiting on Davis :(
2/17: Out at UW, not unexpected (2 and 10 are now my least favorite numbers). Now I'm holding out for Davis, please love me!
2/27: Just applied to UofO, mainly because they just sent me an e-mail about a fee waiver - and I was bored. I'm feeling insecure since Davis still isn't giving me any love, I'll work on it.
3/14: Recent good news, waitlist at Washinton and Lee, and received scholarship money ($15,000 a year) from Loyola. Still waiting on Davis - seriously.
4/06: Accepted at U of O, not sure if I would consider it over Loyola and L&C. Still, still, still waiting on Davis - apparently they expect to have everything out by the end of the month. At this point I just want my cycle over :) :(
6/25: So I decided to attend W&L off the waitlist over Lewis and Clark (for obvious reasons). At this point I'm STILL hoping Davis accepts me, as I would much rather stay in California. I'm terrified of the debt I'm taking on, but that may just be motivation to do well and ensure potential scholarship/a wonderful job :) I can't believe it's almost here . . .
8/5: Currently in Kansas in transit from Portland to Lexington. W/d from Davis a short while ago - it was no longer worth it. Good luck to everyone!
8/11: Just got an e-mail from Davis asking if I was still interested (even though I withdrew). One week before I would have absolutely gone, but now that I'm established in Lexington, it just doesn't appear to be feasible. Yikes.
