| So excited. DD was in ED but so excited for these new admits. |

| In! This was a reach for DC and is a reach for us financially, but we are all delighted with this news. |

| I’d love to hear if there’s a DMV meet up sometime. Because I’ll never hear about it from DS. |

| Rejected. A little disappointing but not a shock. |

Last year, a lovely Maryland family hosted a gathering at their home for local incoming freshman students and their parents. Both parents were alums and they had a current student as well as an incoming freshman. There was also a rep from BC in attendance, as well as several current students. Everyone spoke briefly. It was a great opportunity for incoming freshman to meet other local freshman that they may or may not know already. If I recall correctly, the event took place late summer. BC sends an invite via email, but be sure to RSVP quickly as spots fill up quickly. |

Best wishes. Everyone jumps on DCUM to report acceptances. Rejections are tough. Trust that an acceptance is coming soon from another great school! |

| Waitlisted!! Last week was Case. DC was quite depressed/discouraged. Thanks goodness they have some very good options already. A few more school this weekend. Hopefully there will be some good news! |

| DD waitlisted. Much better stats than ED1 and ED2 admits from her HS. More annoying than anything. |

| Any clue what are the odds of admitting off the waitlist? |

| I heard the RD acceptance rate was 6.7% this year. Is that true? |

No, that was just someone on CC who divided number of applications by number of seats without factoring in yield. |

| DC also in, happy and grateful, although probably will choose a different school. Think the admit rate was 15% so very tough! |

Acceptance rate is probably a bit under last year's rate of 15% as BC's rate's been trending lower each year like most schools. But to your point, isn't that how acceptance rate is calculated? Without accounting for yield? |
