Extra Curricular Information

Since graduation in 06/04 I've had some unique employment experiences...

Additional info & updates

Comments welcome. Good luck to everyone.

10/19/06 - Large envelope from Duke w/acceptance

11/03/06 - Small envelope from UT w/acceptance

a good start so far...

11/17/06 - Had a great visit at UT. Everyone seemed very laid-back despite finals approaching. Austin would be a wonderful place to live, especially since it was 72 degrees during my Nov. visit.

11/20/06 - Large envelope from Michigan w/acceptance. This one felt good since I've given up on getting good news from Georgetown.

12/15/06 - Deferral in the mail from Columbia. Time to start putting together some supplementay materials to send in.

12/15/06 - Georgetown acceptance finally came. Wow where have you been the past few weeks?

12/21/06 - Acceptance call from Penn! Letter and packet apparently in the mail.

12/21/06 - Small envelope from Vanderbilt w/acceptance.

1/10/07 - Hold from Harvard via e-mail. A pleasant surprise.

1/23/07 - Deferral in the mail from Chicago. Bleh.

1/31/07 - E-mail from Boalt stating that my app has "passed an initial review" and a decision will be released by 2/23. Somewhat glad that they don't want any supplemental materials.

2/27/07 - Called Boalt to get the bad news.

3/5/07 - Priority non-resident waitlist from UVA. Status checker changed 3/1. Hmmm, probably withdrawing.

3/5/07 - Scholarship info from Vandy, merit & needed-based total $20k/yr.

3/6/07 - Acceptance call from UCLA. Had a nice chat with the Dean. First good news of 2007.

3/10/07 - Acceptance from USC in the mail. Hopefully they're not done giving out $$$.

3/26/07 - Harvard ding in the mail. I think I had the lowest stats of any deferred candidate.

4/9/07 - Columbia Reserve notice in the mail. Man that dream's dying a sloooooow death.

4/20/07 - NYU WL in the mail. Cycle officially over. It feels good to know where I'm going for sure.

4/16/07 - WL in the mail from Chicago, not staying on.

Congrats on the Duke Acceptance! We have really similar numbers. Best of luck to you this cycle!

re: Completion
Wednesday, August 30 2006 at 08:00 PM

Thanks! I actually received an e-mail at 10:00 p.m. from UT the same day my acceptance letter came with a link to a status checker. Obviously a little late to help, though it did say my file was processed on 10/13. I never heard anything from them until I got the letter yesterday.

re: Status Checker
Wednesday, August 30 2006 at 08:00 PM

When I first received the e-mail the status page just said that my application had been processed and was complete. I checked it today and at the bottom it said "Admission was granted on 10/31/06." But that hadn't been there earlier. Good luck to you with UT and all your apps!

re: awesome!

It was a small, off-white standard-sized envelope. My heart dropped when I first saw it, but then it seemed a little heavy for a reject letter.

Question
Thursday, December 21 2006 at 07:00 PM

What were the unique employment positions?

Thanks!
Thursday, December 21 2006 at 07:00 PM

For the info. I have to say, I think that does count as both unique and interesting. Good luck with everything!

NYU
Saturday, June 24 2006 at 08:00 PM

Wow, still no word from NYU? I think we are the last ones out of the first group to go complete who haven't heard.

UVA
Wednesday, November 08 2006 at 07:00 PM

You went complete the same day as me and I was wondering if you have heard anything? Any idea what is taking so long?

pugs again
Saturday, July 29 2006 at 08:00 PM

i may just end up in So Cal depending where i get in...only gotten into SC so far but would love to hear back from my UG (go bruins!). so i might just take you up on that offer! i am going to google long haired pugs now i am curious!

USC $$$
Wednesday, September 07 2005 at 08:00 PM

Basically I turned in my scholaship app about 10 days after my acceptance, and they gave me my offer about 2-3 weeks after that. But apparently they do their scholarship letters in batches so it may vary a bit. Good luck!

Congrats...

on the Penn scholarship. If you wouldn't mind sharing, was it need or merit based, and how were you notified?
