I did. I sent them an update saying that I would cancel them on Twitter if they didn’t give me an A.
They were persuaded at first and sent me an acceptance email. However, they soon realized that they had already been cancelled. By Brock Turner. So they were no longer willing to be extorted by my threat and they sent me back to the waitlist.
No longer do I get to play out my ultimate fantasy of singing and dancing on Stanford’s campus like Gabriella Montez in HSM3.
For real, Stanford doesn’t really entertain the possibility of extending As off the waitlist until May 1. And if anyone hasn’t figured it out yet it IS APRIL 1.
No disrespect to Stanford. I thought this would be a nice way of letting go of a school that was once my top choice. Nevertheless, I’ll be attending the other T5 school in the Bay Area, which may have been a better fit for me and my personal goals anyway.
