And now, the waiting game...

Hi everyone!

I just got back from the post office, where I just sent out my Saba application, with pictures, two-and-a-half-page essay, and resume via certified mail.

Once I get back to school in about a week, I will be talking with a few professors to get letters of recommendations sent too.

I requested transcripts to be sent from two colleges I took classes during high school and during last summer.

I feel so relieved, yet so excited and nervous at the same time. I really hope that I do get in!

By the way, I'm applying for the January '06 class.

Hey everyone! I said I'd keep you guys posted, and here's an update for Tuesday, 1/11.

Last night I received an email from USPS telling me that my certified mail item had been received in Gardner, MA at 10:35 AM.

This morning I received an email from Joanne in Gardner confirming the receipt of my application, and she told me what I was missing (2 letters of recommendation, and transcript from one college).

I replied to her telling her that the letters would be sent by the professors, and that the transcript request had already been sent out.

I thought it was really nice of them that they actually confirmed receipt of the application! I can't think of any ungraduate schools I applied to that did that!

I don't remember SABA doing that for me!!! LOL... good job Gardner! Nothing like being on the ball! Good luck again Conway,

That's odd. Maybe because you had a "complete package" when you sent it in? Or maybe they're just getting ever so much better! 8)

Woohoo, that was post #100! I feel so big being a 'senior member' now!! :P

yea i actually had the same done. They called and told me what i was missing. Im still waiting for a reply. It went in for review last week on monday.

Gardner moves fast. We had them arrange for the phone interveiw within three days of receiving the completed package. The first time Ed was accepted ( 2 yrs ago) he got his answer at the end of the phone interveiw. This time I think the whole process was completed within a week of Gardner receiving the completed app.
I doubt your wait will be very long at all.
Good luck to all.
