Well I knew going in my numbers weren't great, but I thought I had decent extracurricular a and had a unique story about my heritage and my experiences growing up in the Capitol city of the tribe, but I guess something in my application is bad to not even be wait listed at these schools.

Still have quite a few apps out. Started applying to more realistic schools. I don't need a top school to do what I want but I'm too competitive to not be kind of upset at not getting into schools I know I could be successful at.

It's nice to check this thread and see all of the support. I'm excited to see where everyone ends up! Solidarity, y'all!

Congrats to the people who got good news today!

To those who were WL or rejected, sorry to hear it. You didn't want to go to that school anyway.
