Nice! Smiley Still think Denver sounds really good for you, but those Ivy Schools are tempting, I'm sure. Tongue

Duke is horrible. Don't go there unless you're from New Jersey.

Duke is missing out on a great opportunity - their loss.

Well, if all else fails, you still have any school in Colorado to choose from, which, compared to others, isn't bad at all. Wink

Someday I will understand why I repeatedly considered turning down a full-ride scholarship to go to an Ivy, or to go to a pretty-okay private school.

...today is not that day.

Waitlisted from Penn and Chicago, rejected everywhere else.

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. Now it's between Boston University, Sarah Lawrence, and UC Berkeley. I just hope SLC gives good aid because right now Berkeley and Boston look like they cost around the same (with Boston costing just a little less).

Got into Tufts and waiting on Georgetown. Georgetown is probably the only school now I'd take the full ride over, D.C. + Georgetown = Cheesy

I'd take the full ride, especially if you want to do grad school, and have to pay yourself.

Well, it turns out my new, Wharton Scholar boss has put grad school back on the table. Not sure if I'm willing to make that kind of commitment to Philly though. It's a great opportunity to reach where I had previously aimed for targets. I might also consider Colorado pending a clearer vision of my future.

I've passed my scholarship entrance exam for Aberystwyth, got an unconditional offer, which I have firmed. Essex is my selected insurance choice, though that is now irrelevant.

um...perhaps the University of Texas should not send out its acceptance letters and enrollment forms if you are still at a stage where the graduate dean can (and did) void your acceptance ruling on final authority.


Not a very good week.

Don't go to Georgetown. You don't want to be the sort of person who goes to Georgetown.

My best friend goes there, too. It's not very far from here at all, so I've been to the campus a few times. I feel like that gives me the right to be judgmental about it.

We've got different impressions, then.  Every time I've been there the people have been extremely welcoming.
