Decisions
12/3: Finally got my first acceptance -- BU via phone call!
12/9: Email from Wash U, voicemail from Minnesota; in at both!
12/15: Waitlisted at G'town. Expected, but still stings a little.
12/18: Busy day -- in at UIUC and BC, deferred at Columbia; good news all around (yes, even that deferral)
12/22: In at Cornell! Best Christmas EVER.
1/5: Waitlisted at UCLA. Shrug.
1/11: Waitlisted at Vandy. Shrug x 2. Will remain on list just to get my money's worth. But in at George Washington (PT)! Came out ahead today overall.
1/12: Out at Penn. Sucks to be rejected, but I'm comforted by the thought that Cornell may be a better fit for me anyway.
4/27: In at USC by email and snail mail. Only took them a speedy 6 months.
6/9: In at Michigan!! Deferred to 2011.
6/??: Out at Georgetown by email. Shrug x 3. Too apathetic to even verify the exact date I received it.
8/17: Out at UCLA by email. Shrug x 4.

One of those foreign languages being Mandarin? I'm a Mandarin speaker too. Good luck with the cycle.

Very similar

Good luck!

Vandy interview
Monday, July 20 2009 at 08:00 PM

How did it go? Did you do with an alum? I feel like it was too short to really have helped (or hurt) my application much. I hate waiting.

Thanks
Tuesday, November 10 2009 at 07:00 PM

Thanks, you too! By the way, have you had your Northwestern interview yet?

Interview
Tuesday, November 10 2009 at 07:00 PM

Not yet. I actually live in Morocco, so I'm trying to arrange an alumni one while I'm home in NY in December. Hope yours went well!

Too much money
Monday, July 20 2009 at 08:00 PM

Well, you gotta spend money to make money!

Congrats
Tuesday, November 10 2009 at 07:00 PM

on BU! I just got the call too :)

Good job!
Monday, July 20 2009 at 08:00 PM

On your BU acceptance!

Thanks!
Monday, July 20 2009 at 08:00 PM

Hoping for more each!

Hey
Tuesday, November 10 2009 at 07:00 PM

Hey there, looks like you just got the same email I got ;( They really waited until the last minute!

Was placed on the Preferred WL, but who knows what that really means... will probably try to update my file with two more recs and a letter re-stating my interest. Also planning a trip up to Boston in a few weeks. How about you?

Good job
Monday, July 20 2009 at 08:00 PM

On all your schools so far. And hey, I'd be happy about a deferral too, at least this far in the game.

Congrats
Monday, July 20 2009 at 08:00 PM

On Cornell!! I'm waiting...any signs I should be looking for :(

Hey
Tuesday, November 10 2009 at 07:00 PM

Same here on BU, gonna visit soon and working on the public interest scholarship app. Congrats on Cornell dude!

Hey
Tuesday, November 10 2009 at 07:00 PM

Aw, well a WL is still better than a rejection! Would you prefer to stay out west or come east? NU interview went well I think, very casual. Fingers still crossed...

Conratz!

Hey! Just wanted to let you know that since we are more-or-less number twins, I've been stalking your profile all cycle. Here's to hoping we'll get some money from BU or GW!
