Thanks so much! Where are you going?

I'm not 100% yet . . . I have a few more days of laying all the cards out on the table yet. However, I'm happy with my options, I think I'll be in good hands no matter where I go! :)

Hang in there Kazoo! You're on the wait list for two awesome places and maybe Tyler will come through for you! If your presence on this forum is any indication, you'd be a great addition to any grad program no matter where or when you attend one!

Wait listed AGAIN at Yale. Damn!

hi eschaten!My friend(she is in yale) told me someone got waiting list first year. Sheila wrote to him/her and encouraged to reapply. And then they rejected him/her in the second year......So do not be discouraged, you still have a chance because at least you are still on the list!

I second that, wait lists are a good sign. People could be getting into multiple schools and choose another over yale for any number of reasons. There is still hope!

it means you're wait listed. if you call the director of admissions, she'll tell you.

i'm not really certain if they actually reject any finalists, or just wait list them all.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Kazoo - good luck! Hang in there - SAIC and UCSD are really great and they didn't give their final answer yet. I'm also on the waiting list for RISD...

Thank you! I was totally not expecting it... SVA is really great - it will be hard to decide... I'm glad you're happy about going there! And you know - it really isn't too far from New Haven :)

Oh man... Just saw your post. I hope it works out! Your probably somewhere at the top - they've seen your work and your progress from this past year - and it seems your interview was indeed very interesting. So hang in there!

CONGRATS Song! Sooo... I guess you're going? ;-)

Thank you so much! Yale sure is among my top choices - I'm afraid it really depends on the financial aid... I don't know how much Yale tends to help the students. Does anyone here know? Because I would really love to go there!

Thank you!! This decision is WAY harder than I thought it would be. Man, it's nice to have all of the decisions in, though. Hopefully UTK will come through with some good news for you soon. :)

There wasn't a thing from VCU in the snail mail box today...

Maybe that's good news? But full disclaimer: I live in Richmond right by campus. It probably didn't even take a day to get the 8 blocks to my mailbox.
