Additional info & updates

I'll be attending Vanderbilt this fall.

I put in scholarship numbers for the schools I'm not going to, maybe this will help some people get an idea for what money they might expect.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
May 18, 2007 - Named scholarship at Vanderbilt, glad I decided to go there.

March 3, 2007 - Merit Scholarship to Vanderbilt, thereby complicating my decision even more.

January 22, 2007 - In at UVA, small envelope, fairly thick.
In addition, scholarship to Duke, still going with my decision not to post amounts, but I'm pleased.

January 19, 2007 - UVA has mailed my decision. No word on what it is yet.

January 16, 2007 - In at Vanderbilt, small plain envelope. Not a lot of info, but more to come.

December 21, 2006 - Informal phone call and financial aid offer from Georgia (via email). I have decided not to share financial aid specifics with everyone though, since it seems more private than an acceptance.

December 15, 2006 - Huge acceptance packet from Duke. Letter from the dean specifically referenced my personal statement.

December 14, 2006 - Paper acceptance from UGA. Comes in a small linen envelope, 3 pages thick.

December 13, 2006 - Email from Dean Hoye at Duke. Decision letter is in the mail. Should get here tomorrow or Friday I assume.

December 12, 2006 - Accepted to UGA, showed up on status website.

well GP, the anger stems from bureaucratic ineptitude and the plebians that basterdize the true mission of college: the search for truth. Other than that, go doggies :D

why isn't Penn your first choice?

Penn isn't my first choice because it's simply too damn cold up there

cold?

Right. The "mild" climate of Charlottesville (sp) makes UVA a better choice. Stanford? The weather stays "just right" 24/7 365 days a week, or so I heard.

hey, we've got somewhat similar numbers and similar completion dates at duke, hope we both hear good news :)

DUKE!
Sunday, December 11 2005 at 07:00 PM

good luck...I bet you get a fat envelope from them!

Duke

Yeah no kidding- I'm hoping we find out soon, I'm looking for some comfort in my first decision. I think you might sweep this cycle though. Good luck!

thanks!

I am SO hoping for Vandy. You'll definitly get a spot. If you don't want it i'll take it:-)

in at duke :)
Thursday, June 29 2006 at 08:00 PM

i just got the fat envelope, i'm positive that you're in too :)

Congrats!
Thursday, June 08 2006 at 08:00 PM

Go Duke! I might have to visit :)

I got a letter earlier this week from the Office of Financial Aid. It was a stuffed business-size envelope. It just said that I received the Dean's Scholarship worth 10k/semester. Hope this helps,

one more thing
Sunday, December 11 2005 at 07:00 PM

the scholarship offer came more than a month after the acceptance, so I wouldn't spaz just yet!

um
Sunday, December 11 2005 at 07:00 PM

yeah, it is a bit higher than that. I've noticed that people with numbers similar to yours have been getting offers of 15k/year, which is nothing to shake your fist at. Ooh, bad grammar. Nothing at which to shake your first.

has instilled in me a deep respect for correct prepositional placement. That is a large part of why I adore Henry Kissinger so much. His grammar is breath-taking.

My advice to you is to head to Duke and give me your Vandy spot once you get in;)

thanks!
Thursday, June 29 2006 at 08:00 PM

thanks a lot, i'm really hoping for ucla sometime soon though, i'm probably gonna end up staying in southern california. it's kinda worrisome when so many people have gotten in already

Going to make it to visiting students day at Vandy on the 16th?

No Fry's...
Monday, December 18 2006 at 07:00 PM

And I don't let ANYONE stick their fingers in my computers...

do you
Thursday, June 08 2006 at 08:00 PM

wanna get matching "team billy" vests? -the other 'mean girl' guy.

fry's
Wednesday, January 24 2007 at 07:00 PM

it is an absolute deal breaker for me...I don't let anyone else's fingers in my computer, so I need access to Fry's on very short notice

Vandy
