Hey! I thought I would start a thread for those who applied for Chemeketa's program this year in hopes to begin Fall 2015. I just did my essay yesterday afternoon :) I know it's rare to get in your first try, and I would need full points on my essay to even have a chance, but it would still be neat to keep in touch with some others who have also applied! Good luck everyone! I would love to hear from you!
10. There were a ton of people! I was so focused on writing and following the directions that I didn't even think to count the number of people until I was in the parking lot. Dang!
I did my essay at 9. I asked the lady at the desk as we were leaving how many essays were scheduled, she said one hundred eighty-something, and I think she said there were 48 spots this year.
Oh wow! That seems like A LOT!! Makes me nervous but I am truly content with whatever my outcome is. Thanks for the info Adbivium! Good luck and let us know how it went!
So my impression is that we will be able to look up our total points, including essay, around May 1st, which should give us a fair idea of our likelyhood of getting in (when we look at past years' cutoff points). Does this seem about right, or am I off track?
Yeah. I'll need full points on my essay and even then I will only have 355/360. I've read a lot of past posts and I think 356 is usually the cutoff so I don't feel overly confident this year but I've enjoyed the process!
