I don't think I've stopped to catch my breath as I read CONGRATULATIONS a few hours ago. I've been to San Francisco and back for a beer with some teammates to celebrate Tim's birthday. I tried not to steal the thunder, but couldn't settle down long enough to sit in a chair. I'm so happy I'm on the verge of tears - happy tears. 10 Months of hard work has finally paid off, with two dings, one wait list, and now an admit to my number one school, I can't explain how much this means.
I've had the pleasure of making some friends along the way, and I'm hoping, these people will soon be classmates. If not, I look forward to hearing about their adventures in business school. I'm still in shock. I realize I have a lot of logistics to figure out in the coming weeks, namely, when do I leave my job, but until then, I pause, smile, and prepare for a weekend of CELEBRATION!
Thanks to all who have been there on my journey. From family and friends who listen to my complaints, to my sacred reviewers, generous recommenders, and fabulous blog readers. I couldn't have gotten through this without you! :D
Signing off, I need to rest up for an intense weekend. I'll write more when I actually catch my breath.

Congratulations! I, too, got a bunch of dings and 1 waitlist, but got admitted to my first choice (is that not so weird?). Unlike you, I heard really early on in the process about my admit, so it was a buffer for each new ding that came my way. I CANNOT imagine the stress of being down to your last school...you totally deserve it! ENJOY!
yessss. :) It's all uphill from here, Paige. Congrats!

Thank you all for the congrats! I sincerely appreciate it. After a crazy weekend in SF... it's time to settle down, get healthy and start planning. Best of luck to all my fellow applicants, I hope your dreams come true. :D
Hey,
I have a ques. I applied to Darden for the fall 2009 intake in R1 and got done with my alum interview a few days ago. However, I havent received a decision yet though the deadline is 30th Jan.
Is it common for there to be a delay for a couple of days or should I get in touch with the school because I was unable to reach them on Saturday by phone? Not sure if they work on Saturdays though.
Anyway, I hope you are enjoying your time in Darden and congratulations. All the best! Cheers.
