More happy news from our Round 1 applicants: <\/p>\n

Hope things are well and that you’re having a great holiday season. Just wanted to let you know that I was accepted into Columbia today and thank you and the Admissionado team for all your help. I didn’t apply to any schools Round 2 so I’m almost certainly planning on attending. Also, I wanted to add that my journey with mindfulness and communicating it through the application process has been transformational for me and I appreciate the time and effort you provided in helping to guide me. <\/em>
\n- J.Y.<\/p>\n

I just want you to know that I’m admitted by Darden with full-tuition scholarship! Thank you so much for your help!<\/em>
\n- L.L.<\/p>\n

Elated to say that I just got the acceptance call from Tuck. Thank you all guys. I wouldn’t have made it without your support.
\n<\/em>
\n-S.K.<\/p>\n

The thought provoking feedback, suggestions, edits, comments that you have provided in just one turn, are EXACTLY what I was looking for, and what I needed. THANK you so much for this! I have been working hard to reconstruct these today, and hoping to turn around another version of the essays shortly. In the meantime, I wanted to simply express how grateful I am to you guys for amazing support in literally the 11th hour. And for making it a personal experience. I told Lauren this the other day, but I really wish I had worked with you guys from the beginning instead of wasting so much time (and money!!!) with the other guys. I know that my entire application would be much stronger and I would have more peace of mind, probably earlier in the game too \":)\" <\/em>
