Let swimchick be, guys. It's her decision, and she's free to change her mind any time.

Although, swimchick, I hope you've already informed SGU about your intentions. That would make your spot available to another applicant who DOES want to go to SGU, especially now that we've heard the class is full and people are bursting to get off the waitlists.

I, for one, am rooting for swimchick to get into an American school to follow her dream. Moreover, it opens up a spot for a prospective like me who is dying to get into SGU. If the chance increases even a miniscule .01% score, by all means --- cool!

From a person who went through three application cycles in the US and still didn't get in, I would still recommend people to go through at least two application cycles in the US with significant improvements in the second application. Good for you swimchick, hope you get in to US schools.

I think many people will get accepted once people decide to defer their admissions and those who come off the US wait lists. Keep your hopes up, but have backups plans too.

So far, the class is full. If you get an interview, it will be for a wait-list spot at best. If I were you I would still send in all of my supplementary documents and just hope for the best.

I just spoke with my admission counselor and she said that Grenada class is full but there is still room in KBT GSP program. So now whoever is accepted, I am assuming will be offered GSP.

I wouldn't doubt it either. I'm sure many people are going to defer their acceptances or decide to apply to the US again.
