Additional info & updates

11/17- UVA Acceptance call from Dean Trujillo. Dean's Scholarship for full tuition.
11/17- Duke Acceptance by email.
11/24- Toby Stock Interview
12/08- TS2!
12/22- In at NYU by snail mail
1/23- Penn acceptance on answering machine (Didn't write the 'Why Penn?' essay)
1/29- Actual acceptance letter from Columbia (congratulatory email before acceptance on 1/28)
2/3- Email invite to apply for Penn's Silverman-Rodin Scholarship (1L full tuition, half tuition 2L)
2/5- Phone call from NYU alum working at NOAA. Very impressive.
2/17-Phone call from UVa 1L. Definitely enjoy the outreach.
2/17- Decided to withdraw from Penn and forgo the scholarship application process (hopefully someone else will get to apply!)
3/7 - Back from ASDs at NYU and Columbia. Liked Columbia a lot more than I thought I would and NYU less than I anticipated. We'll see how Harvard fares next weekend.
3/9- Finalist for Environmental and Land Use Scholars program at NYU. One can hope...
3/25- ELU Scholarship to NYU! 37,500 over three years. Not bad, but Harvard's free third year after a PI commitment essentially equals it out.
4/11- Withdrew from NYU. Top choice coming in, but just never felt right. I'll be deciding between staying in C'ville or heading to Cambridge in the next day or so...
4/16-Harvard it is.

Wow, a full ride to UVA? Well done. Holy moley!

There is a 99.9% chance I'll see you at UVA -- unless you get in at your other top choices -- which, come to think of it, seems awfully likely! Good luck making your decision.

What do you mean by "actual acceptance letter"? Did you receive something else before? When was your letter dated/postmarked? Thanks!
