    I have no idea. I sent mine in at least a month ago. I think DePaul does rolling acceptance (as opposed to waiting until a certain date to look over applications like some bigger public schools do). I was pretty early with mine, so that might have helped.

    You applying?

    I got into the University of Vermont, St. Lawrence University and my current school Gettysburg College. I'm really happy with my choice. Being on a small campus is great, and most of the people here are pretty cool.

    I've been accepted by UW-Stevens Point and UW-La Crosse. UW-Madison has informed me that they are delaying their final descision on my application until March. Until then I can send in my semester grades(required), new ACT scores(I probably won't retake it), and recommendation letters(They really like recommendation letters). About 40% of delayed descision applications end up getting accepted. I think I'll be fine if I get good reccomendation letters.
    Why did the chicken cross the road?

    So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
    but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
    chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli

    Default AW: University!

    I'm in my last semester at the University of Hawaii at Manoa studying European history. Started out as a computer science major but found out I was not good at programming so switched to my 'love' though I now think I should have gone into business or electrical engineering.

    Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
    Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
    Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.

    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
