College Admissions Decisions
April 1st, 2008
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.

More than one hug: *HUGS!*
Congratulations!
I am so super insanely jealous! How phantasmogorical. :)
23. cc | April 1st, 2008 at 10:06 am
solely based on the cities and not the univerisity, NYC would be great if you don’t mind the hustle and bustle of city life, with places such as times square etc.
If $ isn’t a problem, then I would consider NYC. It seems like it would suit you and your energy. I don’t think you’d be bored there. It’s a pretty happening place with lots of places for you to discover and explore - and then blog about!
24. sweatlee | April 1st, 2008 at 10:08 am
plsplsplsplspls go upenn or nyu! columbia also can la cause those are close to me!!! can’t wait to see u here love!
25. cc | April 1st, 2008 at 10:09 am
and you didn’t have to worry about not having Pre-U because most American Universities don’t require it. :)
Congrats!
26. Anna | April 1st, 2008 at 10:09 am
Hi, I stumbled across your blog a while ago. Congrats on the admissions! While I’ve only been to NYC of all the American cities those universities are in, I’d say go with Columbia because you’re a city-kid and it makes a big difference during cold winters. I know this as I’ve been studying in Toronto for almost 3 years. Plus, NYC has lots to explore. :)
27. diana | April 1st, 2008 at 10:11 am
hey su ann..congratulations on your successful applications..so which uni is your 1st choice now? and what are you going to pursue?
28. nyrac | April 1st, 2008 at 10:30 am

48. Andrew | April 1st, 2008 at 2:06 pm
Hey Su-Ann, I’ve been a reader of your blog from time to time, coming in from suanie and KY and all them.
Congrats on the acceptances! I just graduated from Swarthmore myself in 2005, and its an AWESOME place, and I’d definitely love to tell you more about it.
I’m kind of a Malaysian, I lived there for 12 years before college, and you probably know Andrew Loh, who’s from Petaling Jaya and studying in Swarthmore right now.
Well, feel free to shoot me an email, which I think you’ll have with this message, and let me try and recruit you for Swarthmore ;)
Again, congrats on the acceptances, that’s a huge accomplishment!
49. sheon | April 1st, 2008 at 2:06 pm

69. Jayne | April 1st, 2008 at 4:03 pm
Hey!
CONGRATS ON UR OFFERS! You got into some AMAZING schools. I still haven’t checked mine yet, hehe. I’m too scared.
Anyway, a few tips that i picked up around school (since everyone has been talking about unis non-stop this month)…NYU’s biggest draw is its location. Many people only apply there for the city, and that’s why it’s so famous. It really only depends on what major to do there, but its mostly best for artsy, film stuff, I guess.
And, U Chicago is mainly good for economics, so if thats what you want to do, that’ll be a great choice :) But it’s quite a scary place, what with hearing gunshots, getting carjacked and having your home broken into.
but enough of that. OMGOMGOMGOMG GO CELEBRATE. Congrats again :)
70. jim | April 1st, 2008 at 4:13 pm
Good on ya!
71. Jayne | April 1st, 2008 at 4:15 pm

99. your aunt | April 1st, 2008 at 10:14 pm
Three reasons to choose Upenn:-
1. dad would be one happy man if later u decide to continue at Wharton Sch and help him in the corporate world.
2. mom would be one happy woman if later u decide to continue at Annenberg Sch of Communication, then work in the media preferablyfootball commentator or sports talk show .hehehe…can give her insider information ..hahaha
3. aunt would be one happy woman as it would be near enough to ‘busy body’ over you maaa…
Three reasons not to choose Upenn
…same as the above ….duh =p
BUT ..seriously laa..Upenn is a winner just like you..

132. Jin Tik | April 2nd, 2008 at 10:02 pm
Hey Su Ann, congrats on your fantastic offers! I think you are definitely one of the top performer in US uni applications! haha..so which one are you keen on? I reckon UPenn right? Cos you are heading to Wharton? Or Columbia?
133. E | April 2nd, 2008 at 10:27 pm
a million congrats, su ann :)
weird (cos i don’t know u personally), but somehow i never doubted that you’d make it. hahaha! and i’m sure you’ll excel in whatever you choose to do.
134. fish fish | April 3rd, 2008 at 2:12 am
Congrats! Welcome to the USA. You will excel in any university you choose. I strongly believe it depends much more on the person and the field that the university is famous for, not the university in general, though good university makes it easier. ;)
You have all the good choices for you to think.
*hug*
135. Benjamin Franklin | April 3rd, 2008 at 2:42 am

I am not too sure about the other American universities but I definitely know that Uni of Pennsylvania is a SUPER GOOD uni. It was TOP 5 in America back in 2005-2006 if not mistaken.
Well, enjoy the American education, girl. Way to go, girl!

Chicago = Windy City. Cold. Industrial. Chinatown OK but not that nice (this will be important later when you crave good Malaysian or Asian food).
161. jessica k. | April 4th, 2008 at 10:44 pm
A little late but. *hugs* congratulations to yuu. :)
162. paupau | April 5th, 2008 at 3:19 am
wow … i’m late. i was just reading your latest entry thinking of what an amazing and interesting life you lead, and then i started thinking if you had heard your college decisions yet. and so i scrolled down and whaddya know! congratulationsss
163. oaktreebranch | April 6th, 2008 at 11:56 am
Hey! So you definitely don’t know me, but I blog hop way too much for my own good and landed up at your page :)
Anyway -
-Chicago’s got a really intellectual/sarcastic vibe.
-Columbia’s really special in that its selections are just amazingly eccentric (plus you get to take classes at Barnard as well)
-Swarthmore is incredibly rigorous
-NYC is pretty much the biggest artsy school
-UPenn is all around great - just really huge classes though (that’s hear say)
I got all that from collegeconfidential.com
You should check that site for college information - it’s incredibly addicting, just like meth (wth?) Lol.
But good luck in whatever you do :)
Go Malaysia! (what the…how patriotic I’ve become since coming here =_=”)
Congratulations :D
164. tink | April 6th, 2008 at 3:07 pm
hey i have been reading your blog and i want to say. CONGRATULATIONS =D feel really happy for you! =) have an awesome university life !!
165. nick | April 9th, 2008 at 12:19 am

166. miss.cc | April 11th, 2008 at 5:05 pm
omg! congratulations!!! your wish(es) came true! =) *hug hug* wish you all the best there! (: which one are u thinking of entering?
167. siong1987 | April 16th, 2008 at 12:19 pm
LOL… Congratulations. You got so high score for your SAT. No wonder you could get into all those Ivy Unis.
I just got into CMU… Darn.. Not my first choice.. Most probably, going to UIUC… T_T Not as good as you..
168. Ky | April 19th, 2008 at 11:07 am
