maengret Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 4 hours ago, FishNerd said: We have been told so many times that trying to do academia together could be next to impossible, so we are just so happy and thankful that we have beat the odds. Each of us has always tried to do the best we can so we can stay together through all the hurdles and we are just so relieved to have passed this hurdle. It'd be great if we get a joint acceptance at our other top school but we are not going to complain because one is all we really wanted. Congrats! I have friends who managed to do law school together and are still happily married 10 years on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAreBlue Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 @FishNerd I am so happy for you guys. I know how incredibly difficult this could be. Glad that things worked out for you two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishNerd Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 @maengret and @OceansAreBlue Thanks so much you guys! It took a lot of research to find schools that were really good fits (or possible good fits) for both of us so we are thrilled that one worked out! Again, congrats to everyone on their acceptances so far and I hope today brings even more good news for everyone! BlessMeWithSnow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeLeeCzechIrish Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Just to be clear-and not confuse anyone for next year-I did NOT get into Vanderbilt! I wanted to draw attention to the fact that the results said U of Vanderbilt, but looking back at my post, it totally could look like an acceptance. Although I would LOVE to have gotten an acceptance to Vandy, I have no chance since I did not apply! Sorry about that! TaliaTee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
