And the decision is made for me.

So, I got quite the wake-up call today. My mom decided to disturb my slumber early this morning by having me open a letter from Lawrence. For a while now, I've been basically thinking that I would either take a year off or go to Lawrence for a year and transfer to somewhere else (like Depaul). And then the letter began with "we regret to inform you

Thank you. It's working, I think.

1. Were you rejected or waitlisted?
2. Did you apply to Depaul too? Because I think they just might be less selective than Lawrence.

[rainwaker]

1. Well, waitlisted...but still.

2. No, didn't I tell you about that? I missed the deadline, partially because of Collegeboard.fuckingcom. And I think that there theater program, at least, is more selective.

1. I was waitlisted too, and it seems like those of us who turn in the card will still have a very good chance of getting in. A lot of people who get in don't go there.

2. You did tell me. But It didn't seem like they had a separate theater department... separate music dept. yes, but I don't remember theater being separate.

well, wait and see about Oberlin, who knows? Madison Waitlisted me. And dont worry. Things work out if you do. Congrats, then, on waking up (?)

everything will be ok if you let it be

I know the pain of being waitlisted. It sucks. But from the sounds of things (looks at Burton's post), you might still have a chance, unlike me at the U. So, figure out what needs to be done and just try to do it. Coming from a fellow procrastinator, I think you can still get in. Otherwise, a year off from school isn't the end of the world.
