I'm 2007, but glad you're excited about coming here. It's greatness. Drop me an email if you want some questions answered by a current Mac student.

Congrats Greggie.
Are either of you coming to the spring samplers in April for an overnight visit to check out the campus? If you're not, you really should consider it. You'll get to meet alot of you new classmates as well as get a feel for the campus. I'm still good friends with a girl I met at a my sampler weekend.

Michael, sounds like you have a good chance of getting in. Your test scores sound good, as do your extra curriculars. I don't speak for admissions, of course, but just comparing friends' stats it sounds like you have a good chance. You should know very soon!

I am eager to see all of you in the fall. We must arrange something, mustn't we? :-)

I just logged in to the application status and seen that all of my data, i.e. address, name, school, application materials, teacher's name, etc. have been removed from the system even though I can still log in.

Can any acceptees please try the application status login and tell if they can still see their relevant application status data?

I'm sure I'm rejected.. why else would a college delete such data?but, still to be sure...
