Waiting on Harvard, Yale, and Dartmouth today. Stranger things have happened, but I am anticipating three more rejections. 96% on the SAT and a 3.5 G.P.A. I guess it's how it works sometimes. At least she got into the only school in the state she was willing to attend and got scholarship money.

Applying to the master's program for philosophy - something SMU does not have.
Turned down by Tuft's (#1 program in the country) but accepted at Boston U and Houston. Waiting for Tulane, Texas, and Stanford. Will also send out applications to NYU and Columbia.
I got reminded just how nerve racking this is.
