If all the acceptances went out, I would imagine this place would be exploding...but its not?

I don't think it was that explosive (in terms of numbers of people) in previous years... 🙁

Also, there's now a class thread? Could that be drawing away posts?

I was feeling super awesome at the beginning of the cycle with the multiple accepts, but the latter part of this application process has left me disgruntled and demoralized haha. Numerous acceptances followed 5 straight up rejections and some waitlists. Before you all jump me, I realize I'm still lucky to have a place to go next year, but I still opt to exercise my right to complain 🙂

same here!!! it started off so well and now its been all bad news. i did get into one of my favorite schools but a lot said no (including all top tiers) 🙁
 
Hey all,

I wasn't in that first round of acceptance emails... the 11:45-12:00 pm round, I mean. But I just got an acceptance email. So keep up hope!

My inbox CANNOT HANDLE THIS MUCH REFRESHING.
 
Well, at the risk of adding another layer of crazy to the pile here, don't forget to check your spam folders.
 
I really need to get back to work but I can't leave my computer!! ahh! 😱

not helping! lol i want to go get on a different network... maybe this one allows me on the internet but not onto gmail lol i am going crazy. they should send out rejection e-mails just so we know!
 
tarheel,
what program did you apply to? what is the exact time of your email? are you ivy non ivy school? when did you interview and last name letter? can you tell us just so we can get a sense of how it is sent out.
thanks for the info
 
Got accepted!! 😀 I received the same email. Congrats to everyone else who did get accepted!
 
Has anybody been accepted straight HST yet? I can't seem to decipher the pattern of these acceptances thus far...
 
Still nothing... Maybe they're mailing these out by subcommittee? Trying to keep hopeful... but really, I'm just not feeling the hope.

I know what you mean. I haven't really followed this thread, but the drama today is just too hard to resist. Since my email seemed to come later than everyone else's, maybe that means I barely made the cutoff, haha. Still can't believe it.
 
I'm hoping since I'm on the West Coast it will take longer lol 😱
 
Hey folks, just got an acceptance for HST only...no place for me in NP. Keep your heads up folks...looks like emails are still going out. omfg...miracles do happen! 🙂
 
I still havn't turned in the course requirement checklist...maybe I should have back then....
 
Guys, I'm glad we're all in this together....at least we can support one another😳

Hey medSchool,

I'm thinking that attempts to discern a pattern here aren't going to get us very far. Anyway, I'm an odd duck non-trad; interviewed in November. Applied NP-only. Non-ivy undergrad; ivy grad. (Could emails possibly be linked to "ivy" status of college? Seems unlikely to me). Personally, I think my "we barely wanted her" theory is as good as any. 🙂

Best of luck to you. :luck:

Oh, my email was dated 12:07
 
Release your spots at other schools and let the great waitlist movement of the 2008 cycle begin!!!!! 😛

*Of course, no pressure here. I just am really hoping for a few of my friends to get into Baylor with me!*

That is TOTALLY NOT TRUE. You deserve your acceptance and obviously did an amazing job. Congratulations!!!
 
Alright... I am going to moooove away from my inbox and do some work.
 
what time was it sent, tarheel? thanks for the help... i asked about school just to see if they did it according to subcommittee and there is an ivy subcommittee that is why.

Oh, I didn't realize that. Then I guess it's as sensible a basis for speculating as any. My email was dated 12:07.

That's the repeat email, it's all over for us.
 
I don't know about you guys, but I'm already moving on to stage II. My obsession and anxiety concerning an acceptance has been successfully transferred into obsession and anxiety concerning a waitlist.

Now, without further ado, let the psychological campaign commence:

Boy, it sure is *cold* in Boston today! Makes you wish you could spend four years somewhere, anywhere else, don't it? Don't it?!

My only acceptance is Rochester...
 
Got the 11:45 email and didn't think it was real until checking SDN. Man would that be a mean joke to play on someone! Super excited 😍

Hope it works out for everyone still waiting!
 
so it seems no new e-mails have come out for a little bit... time to accept no acceptance I guess... 🙁

Yeeeeep. SIGH. Oh, I did manage to call and ask. Yeah, acceptances are all going out today. Maybe in batches.
 
Judging from what we were told at the HST/NP interviews and the combinations of offers given out, it's pretty clear that they gave out all HST and NP offers in the same email. As in, if you applied HST plus NP, you get an email if you get into either one or both. Man I'm so bummed out.

Well, screw Harvard. In a couple years, they are going to be SO SORRY that they didn't accept you.
 
admissions confirmed that all emails were sent out. so this is final rejection.. no point to talk about it any more

Thanks for calling medSchool8000.

I'm honestly hoping for a straight-out rejection. I want to move on.
 
I second that, thanks medSchool8000. Now we can all move on.
 
Moving on is good. The anxiety has been killing me. Although we have the waitlist to wonder about. But how much does Harvard's waistlist move if we even get on it?

I'm going to Chicago!! 😀
