Geez, talk about a shameless plug Amy! Just kidding, you know I would be doing the exactly the same if the UC application wasn't already due. There's always next year Juniors...come on out to the West Coast!

Thats funny.. allow me to rephrase to suit my situation:

Yeah, I have no idea how this ever happened, but I just received my rejection letter from WPI!!!!!!!

..... wow

That's weird.... I was figuring it wasn't as competitive as I had originally thought. I have a really low GPA.... really, really low scores, and come from a farming community that only offers three sciences in its curriculum.

... sorry to hear that...

Um, could it because you applied? It would be really amazing if you got accepted without applying. Though I am given to understand that that does occasionally happen to those who are good at throwing things or hitting balls with sticks.

If we start having Engineering Scouts showing up at our competitions then FIRST will have achieved it's mission.

Well being from California you should know that some people in this crazy state can get accepted into schools without applying. I got into UC Irvine without applying. I think its top 5% automatically get put into a UC school, but they're changing it to top 14%...craziness!

ya know, someone from CSUN gotta have some school pride. Just cause you go to a college that people actually look up to and aspire to get into....

Last month we had "instant admission day." It disgusts me...kids from local highschools show up with their transcripts and based on their gpa and required courses, they are told yes, you can come here, or no, you can't. That's it. No application. No eager anticipation of that fat envelope (not that my envelope was that fat anyway). It's just no wonder that people at CSUN have to school spirit. Come on, highschoolers, come lend your spirit to my broken and dejected college.

How many did you apply too??? Eveyone says that I am crazy for applying to 5; which in their mind, is way more than the one they did.

Heh, 2

I was planning on applying to Purdue and the University of Illinois but I said heck with it.

[purpledaisy]

I applied to 4 schools. I got into Cornell and UPitt. Pitt offered me an academic scholarship, too! I'm not going there, though, I did binding ED to Cornell. Not like it's a problem... I want to go to Cornell. I will be cold, though, methinks, b/c me is a southern pennsylvanian, and not used to Ithaca weather. oh well.
I think that the more certain you are that you'll get in, the fewer schools you need to apply to. Well... that and how many schools have your major...
byes for now!
