See you all at MIT next year! I'm in!

Yay!

Posted by: Mark Chen on December 15, 2007 12:00 PM
Wow! I was accepted. I'm really excited.
Posted by: Christopher on December 15, 2007 12:02 PM
Thank you admissions officers. You probably heard me screaming in Jersey from Massachusetts. My hands are shaking, this is all surreal.
Posted by: Michelle on December 15, 2007 12:02 PM
Excuse me, but how would you find out if you're admitted or not? Thanx

Posted by: Fausto on December 15, 2007 12:14 PM
OMG!!!!
I can't even type right, my hands are shaking, my eyes are blurry, I'm a mess!!!!
I had never commented on any blog posts before because I didn't feel like I was in my right to do so. But now.....OMG. I can't believe this. For those of you that are as ecstatic as I am, guess what? We made it!!!
There's no better feeling. True, this wouldn't have been the end of the world had I not gotten in, but this is now definitely the start of a whole new world for us all. I can't wait to share the next FOUR YEARS of my life with such a great group of people at MIT. I hope you all take care and party hard (as I will be doing tonight in celebration)!!!!
And no, I still can't believe this.
By the way, what are you guys waiting for to start signing your name with...'12...OH yeah Baby!!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Accepted. That's a huge relief.
Congratulations to everyone else who received the good news this morning.
Posted by: Anonymous on December 15, 2007 12:59 PM
I keep rereading the acceptance; I just can't believe it!
Posted by: Michelle '12(!) on December 15, 2007 01:03 PM
A bit of advice about the tube: you might have to hunt for it. It didn't fit in our mailbox, so the delivery person left it on our porch, to the side of the door. It was placed so that it was hidden behind the door when the door opened. We didn't notice it for several days.
Every year MIT holds a contest for the design of the poster that goes out in the tube. This year's poster was designed by Emma T. '11, who lives on Conner Four (Burton-Conner). Enjoy! Congratulations!
Posted by: MIT anon on December 15, 2007 01:03 PM
YAY!!!!! As I said before, adcoms. Thank you for doing a very difficult job.. Even though I am now more apt to appreciate your work, I would be thankful either way.
anyway, I look forward to meeting all of you at CPW!!
and while I don't know if you'd read this, deffered people .. I'm sure alot of you will still get in and if not, you will still have great options. I know that is easy for me to say.. but it doesn't stop it from being true.
And to self-indulge for a moment, ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^

@Najah
What's the name of the facebook group? I can't find it. I've never been on facebook before (*gasp*), so it might just be my ineptitude.
Posted by: Anonymous on December 15, 2007 01:21 PM
Congrads to everyone. We did it...we got into the MOST SELECTIVE SCHOOL IN THE WORLD!!!!! It is going to be us that changes the world....All the hard work paid off....I can't wait to see you all next year!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Zach on December 15, 2007 01:23 PM
This is so awesome!! I want to thank everyone in my life who's helped me gotten this far including God, my family, friends, peers, teachers,counselors, etc. I love them all and could not be more excited to finally become part of MIT- my dream school! =)
Posted by: Angelica on December 15, 2007 01:26 PM
I was the first one to post admittance, and haven't quite calmed down yet.
Here in California, we have the "cold" temperature of about 60 F, without a cloud in the sky, but I will still be sitting down to a bowl of New England Clam Chowder with my family to celebrate!
Next year I'm guessing that winters won't be quite so balmy for me... but I'll love it anyway!
Have a great day, everyone!
Posted by: Erika (2012!!) on December 15, 2007 01:27 PM
I was so worried I wouldn't get in, I was expecting to be deferred and have to wait another 3 months to get my decision, but thank you MIT! Now I just feel bad for everyone who was rejected. :(
Posted by: Eli on December 15, 2007 01:29 PM
ACCEPTED.
Let's just leave it at that.
Congrats to everyone.
Posted by: Steven on December 15, 2007 01:31 PM

I'm so excited! I've been on the phone all morning telling my family! And I can't stop laughing! I can't stop using exclimation points!
So I'm from Oklahoma, and we just had this awful ice storm (we've actually been declared in a state of emergency) and like half the city is out of power, and my internet has been freaky because of it, and I was paranoid I wasn't going to be able to find out...but I did so its okay now, even though I woke up about five this morning out of nerves....yes this was all one sentence
See ya'll soon and contrats to everyone!
Posted by: Maddie on December 15, 2007 01:52 PM

Congratulations everyone!
I remember when I read my MIT decision (it was midnight for me, in Asia), I was so giddy that I couldn't get past the first sentence for the next three hours...I ended up staying up the whole night because of excitement.
Hope you're the same way :)
See you all at CPW! ^___^V
Posted by: Oasis on December 15, 2007 03:43 PM
So I just checked my paper mail... no mail for me. I figured the decision must be online (thanks for the link Karen)... and I was accepted! Woohoo!
Posted by: Ellen on December 15, 2007 03:44 PM
WOO! this is amazing.
I thought I was going to be deferred for sure - but I made it and it feels great!

DEAR CLASS OF 2012, CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL! I look forward to meeting all of you!!!
That MONTH of waiting was painful, but it was WORTH IT!
I was in a class at 12, but I left for 5 mins, checked, ran outside, sobbed from joy, called my family, calmed down, and went back to class.
Congrats again to all!
Posted by: Jing Jing on December 15, 2007 04:45 PM
I got into Caltech and GA Tech today too ^_^ Good Day ... I don't think MIT needs to worry about losing me though. Still, great to have options.
Once again ... HAPPINESS ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ !!! YAY!!!
~Donald Guy
Posted by: donaldGuy '12 on December 15, 2007 04:54 PM
any tips on how I should approach a friend who was also applying? She goes to my school and I won't have any idea if she got in unless I ask. Should I let her ask me first or should I because I really don't know how often MIT accepts two students from the same high school early.
Posted by: archimedes on December 15, 2007 04:56 PM
i think i just died and went to heaven.
congratulations everyone!
see y'all at CPW! ^-^

YEEEESSSSSSSSS
I woke up my dad when I saw that I was admitted. Couldn't contain my excitement! =)
Congratz to you all and see you soon!

Wow Douglas, I admire you!!! Congratulations and I hope I'll see you at CPW!
Posted by: Jing Jing on December 15, 2007 06:46 PM
Congrats to everyone! I can't wait to see you guys for CPW! I'll be hosting one of you =)
THEY'RE NOT SIGNING THEIR SOULS AWAY. Souls are merely stored in building 66 until graduation, or so I've heard ^.^
As for the Tube, decisions were released on a Saturday last year and I too got mine on Monday.
Posted by: Hunter '11 on December 15, 2007 06:51 PM
So excited! You know, except maybe the signing my name away part?

Baruch ata, Adonai Eloheinu, melech ha olam, Shehechiyanu v kimanu v higiyanu laz man hazeh. Amen.
A jewish prayer meaning "Thank you G-d for allowing me to reach this day"-the first words out of my mouth after I clicked that button. I've wanted to go to MIT since I knew what MIT was, and I'm sure I'm not the only one here. I was convinced I was going to get deferred, even possibly rejected. And yet, here I am, sitting here in disbelief. Congrats to everyone who got in, and if you got deferred, its just a couple months away (who am I kidding, its forever from now). Good luck,
Greg

You know what you guys get to do now?
CELEBRATE! Last March, the night I was accepted, my family and a few close friends went out for dinner. Nothing too expensive or fancy, but it remains one of my most cherished memories.
After tonight, though, it's back to studying hard for finals and second semester. No senioritis for MIT students! :P

I have to go back and reread the first line every half hour. The best news I've ever gotten.

@ archimedes: they accepted two early from my school this year! (that includes myself). and I believe they did the same last year.

I'm from LI.
I was a little surprised there were a lot of kids applying at my HS - like someone else said, I'm not sure if I should ask them.
I'm still so happy and surprised I got in it. I also found out I got into one of my safe schools, but that doesn't really matter now.
Posted by: David on December 15, 2007 07:33 PM
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe I got accepted!!
I celebrated all day today!
And I was all...Hey. I got into MIT.
And people were like..Day-um!
And I was like..thanks!
Sooo worth 12 years of hard work and studying and being frustrated and Yay!
I'm so happy!
All I read was.. "It is our pleasure" and I screamed.
Hopefully MIT has some kick-butt financial aid for me :p

AHHHHHH! I'M SO HAPPY!
Hello, I'm Viva Coles and I'm proud to be in the MIT class of 2012!!
Posted by: Viva on December 15, 2007 09:02 PM
Ok, right, so I have a question.
Are the "congradulations" intentional? Because... the keyboard... doesn't place the 'd' and 't' anywhere close together.
Or is it a misspelling? Please don't be the latter* *headdesk*

So you guys, my future classmates (!!!), where is everyone from??
Central Florida, here. :D
Posted by: Meghan on December 15, 2007 09:11 PM
Alright, I got accepted. Now I just hope that I will not come crying back home because the classes were to hard... :D
Nice job for everyone else who got accepted!
Posted by: EdGaR on December 15, 2007 09:23 PM
Hi Meghan
I am from Sugar Land, TX (Houston suburb). Not so far from you!! We'll get to see four seasons.
Hi Sam!
Do you remember me from MathPath 2003. Anyone else from MathPath 2003 here?

aloha everyone from Hawaii! just got home, wasn't sure about what time to check the decisions. i thought i went into the wrong site, figured i got deferred. but then i reread the other blog post, and went to the decisions website.
"it is my pleasure to offer you admission to the MIT Class of 2012."
OMG!!!!! i can't believe i got in!!!! never in a million years would i think this hawaii boy could get in! god bless you all! thank you admissions office for giving me this chance!
Posted by: Julian Yuen on December 15, 2007 09:32 PM
Now that I have been accepted to MIT, I'm glad the admissions process is so picky about who they let come to MIT. That means everyone there is going to be an intelligent, hardworking, generally goodnatured person. I think the community of awesome people will be even better than the amazing faculty, facilities, classes, life, etc...
I can't wait to meet you all.
Posted by: john Boggs '12 on December 15, 2007 09:43 PM
I am so very happy for all of you! I am a mom of an '09. The '09s didn't get an on line notice nor a tube. It was wait for the snail mail and the "big envelope". That represents how fast life changes and evolves. You are now challenged with doing the same. MIT will change your life. Make the change for a better world.
Posted by: intleyes on December 15, 2007 09:44 PM
Is anyone who has been admitted playing a varsity sport?
Contrats to everyone!
Posted by: Maria on December 15, 2007 10:07 PM
I'M IN!!!!!
OMG, I can't actually believe it!! I had a swim meet today and couldn't check until 6:45 tonight. I was in the computer lab at my boarding school and the young international students that stay there on weekends were wondering what was so exciting. I think they understood.
AWSOME!

Posted by: Jing Jing on December 15, 2007 10:33 PM

Posted by: MiniPocketsized on December 15, 2007 10:37 PM
