the Ivy League universities decision letters were just out about an hour ago.
so i’ve got all my results now.
remember how i said i would be so relieved already if just ONE of my eight schools accepted me? i really only ask for ONE. because i know how difficult it is to get into those schools i applied. and i was kicking myself for not taking the time to just expand my list to a few safeties. i was SO FREAKING scared that my lack of Pre-U was the first step into a path of rejection, especially compared with all the other applicants who are so much more academically qualified.
i applied to 8 schools. 4 of which were Ivies.
University of Pennsylvania - Accepted
Yale University - Rejected
Dartmouth College - Rejected
Columbia University - Accepted
University of Chicago - Accepted
New York University - Accepted
Swarthmore College - Accepted
University of Michigan - Accepted
6 out of 8 acceptances :)))))))
i am really at a loss for words. Chicago, which is my third choice, was the first to send in the letter last week, and i was in China when i got the calls and texts saying that Chicago decisions were out, and the moment we checked into the hotel, i went online to check my admissions decision. and i started crying like crazy when i read the acceptance letter, because i really couldnt believe my luck. then NYU replied with another acceptance. and Swarthmore too. and then today, the other 4 Ivies, 2 of which accepted me.
i could not have done it without my friends, Martian, my family and my schools. thank you to everyone who helped me with my applications, who encouraged me, who believed in me despite all my shortcomings. thank you so much.
i’m going to study in Americaaaaaaaaa :)))))))
if any of you guys have feedback about the schools that accepted me and the cities they are in, please don’t hesitate to leave me a comment :)
pleaseeeeeeee give me a hug because i’m SO HAPPY right now.
