1/27/09: In at GW via email.

2/3/09: Invite to apply for the James Wilson at U Penn via email.

4/15/09: Waitlisted at Harvard.

4/24/09: Placed on "reserve" at Columbia via snail mail.

4/25/09: Rejected at Chicago via snail mail. Not surprising given that I didn't show any interest when they deferred me. Won't lose any sleep over it.

4/27/09: Rejected at Stanford via snail mail. I was kind of expecting a WL this late in the game. I would've waited that one out.

5/14/09: Withdrew my application from the Harvard waitlist and the Columbia reserve list. I decided I'd go to Duke even if offered either of those at this point.
