After neurotically checking my emails over and over...I get do a quick email refresh to see a message that reads "CONGRATULATIONS!", My heart starts to pump really fast as i open it to see its a spam email from a kid wanting me to fill a survey for his thesis...needless to say I fudged his data....

A safety school of mine sends me a letter in the mail today. "Congratulations," it reads. "Your file is now under review by the admissions committee." ...thanks a lot for the tease.

Cornell does that too (I think it's Cornell). It's awful.

I don't know about that - I applied to UCLA around 9/1 - I've heard nothing. Accepts are going out. WL's are going out. Um, I don't like the sound of hearing nothing so far...

Also, a school that accepted me and offered a huge scholly last year just switched about everyone to decision sent, except me.

I didn't get a single e-mail either.

I went proactive an called a couple schools. FSU admissions staff told me they plan to inform the scholraship recepients after the 15th.

maybe they don't want to accept you again bc they think you won't come?

Yeah, I kind of think that - they only gave 2 weeks mid-summer to accept or decline, and I told them it was too late for me to shift gears like that, so I would instead reapply next cycle so I have time to plan to move, visit the school, etc. But seems they more think if I passed up that offer, they're not a top choice or something...

maybe you should stalk the admissions staff like I do, then they would be sure you are intersted. (and then reject you)

Why didn't I think of that - I'll get a plane ticket and be there on Monday waiting at the door of the admissions office before they open, and when they ask, "Can I help you," be like, "Obviously you CAN - you helped everyone else last Friday..."

Yeah, I think that will help not only that ap, but all my others when I send in the 'arrested for stalking' update to my C and Fs...

I was/still am but I just got a "You're IN!" email from Duke. Still considering it a fluke and bracing myself for the worst.

Vanderbilt loved me in the mail.

Thanks guys! Well I thought so - a 163/3.6 from a Top20 school with good softs - but even as a URM I thought it was a reach. I hope other schools see me in the same light:)
