Summary of Experience:
Update: FML on the lower Tier LOL! they've never taken from there so it's just a soft rejection. With the little shred of dignity I have left, I'm withdrawing.
Update: Wait list which it pretty much the kiss of death at this school lol. Oh well I can\'t say it was unexpected, but seeing that they helped with my travel costs it was still totally worth visiting :). Sure I\'m disappointed but, theirs not much else I can do seeing that they said updates/letters of intent are pointless.
Update: I Interviewed and absolutely loved the school. Just everything about it seemed like a good fit and I would definitely matriculate given the opportunity. That being said, I know this is a top notch school with top notch applicants so I wouldn\'t be surprised if I didn\'t get in but, I am still grateful for the opportunity to be considered.
Can\'t Believe it, I\'m really Excited
