2021 College Decision Reaction (Ivies, UCs, Top 20s)

[@just_jon96]

I’ve never seen someone handle so much rejection so gracefully and maturely! Congrats on the ones that did accept you! They’re lucky to get someone like you ✨

[@anushadeshpande25]

Thank you so much, that's so kind!!

[@gabrielah.m627]

I’m literally binging college decision videos I-

[@anushadeshpande25]

That was literally me for the last three years. I always binged these videos instead of doing my homework ahaha

[@mrowl9969]

Congratulations on getting into UCLA, USC, WashU and the others! These are excellent institutions, it is an enormous achievement getting into these and you should be very proud. I am currently a 4th year medical student at a top ranked medical school - a university that in fact rejected me for undergrad - and I came from one of my 'safety' undergrads. College is just a stepping stone for your growth and career and by working hard and doing well, you will be very successful in applying to medical school, which matters way more for your future. Best of luck and enjoy college!

[@anushadeshpande25]

That's so great to hear and gives me so much hope. Thank you so much for your advice and kind words, and congratulations on attending such a great medical school! Good luck with your final year!!!

[@samanthaannfuchsgruber]

I also applied to Brown, Dartmouth, Yale, Harvard, Princeton, MIT, UChicago, and Harvard this year, but I was rejected by all of them. I had a feeling I would not be getting in, yet it still really hurt when I saw rejection after rejection. This was such a great video and now I am in the same boat as you! I have some really great choices left and I have narrowed now my decision to two great schools. I wish you the best of luck and I love the little message you said at the end! Colleges are NOT a measure of our worth as individuals💖 Also, you are so beautiful

[@anushadeshpande25]

Oh my goodness, you are literally so sweet! The rejections definitely hurt and a few tears were shed, but everything will be okay! Thank you so much for your compliments, they made my week! I am so happy that you have awesome options as well, and I wish you the best of luck next year! We are definitely going to thrive wherever we go! You are absolutely gorgeous as well!! If anything, the rejections just help us develop thick skin and become more resilient

[@samanthaannfuchsgruber]

Hi there can you share what mistakes lead to rejection(your opinions)? It will help me improving my application.

[@anushkamullick6948]

The end of this video really touched me. My college application journey wasn't the best as my low self-esteem and lack of belief in myself often got in the way. But now I go to the University of British Columbia and something tells me that this is where I'm supposed to be. You are a gem! Congratulations on all of your acceptances and I really wish you all the best for the future :))

[@anushadeshpande25]

AWWWW Thank you so much - that means a lot! College decisions can be a bit tough, but I'm so glad you love where you are, and I hope I will be just as happy wherever I end up. Also, we almost have the same first name :-)

That was really an inspiration, living in India and not getting into ur dream college is so depressing, but the way u handled all those rejections from ivy's on a single day was like something everyone should learn.

I'm waiting to hear back from 10 schools I applied to for a master's course and the wait is nerve-racking. Trust me, being slightly older doesn't make it any easier when trying to get into colleges for grad school 😂This video and your positivity really helped me!

[@anushadeshpande25]

Awww good look with that! I'm sure it will go well! I'm so happy my video helped. Rejection is hard, but you just have to believe that you'll end up where you're supposed to.

[@kChallengeWithVideos-si2hi]

Congrats on all the unis you got accepted into!! I have seen about 20 reation videos like yours of this year and no one has taken the rejections as maturely as you even though you got rejected by the ivies and those levels. Btw I was actually surprised when you and your mom talked in Kannada. Never thought you would talk so fluently and not in an accent. My cousin talks in it but has somewhat of an American accent with it lol!

[@anushadeshpande25]

Awww thank you so much - the rejections were definitely a hard pill to swallow. My Kannada isn't perfect, but I try my best lol. I also have a very heavy Midwestern accent which is pretty apparent when I speak Kannada for a while, but thank you for the compliments - that's so sweet of you! I love the language, and it's something I treasure dearly.

[@anushadeshpande25]

Hi! I know I said I'd have a new video out today about my stats, but life and school got a little busy, but I'll try to get it out ASAP! I'm so sorry!

[@SophiaCleans143]

4 years ago, I got my rejection letter from Norte Dame after hoping and wishing and praying for the past two years before that day. I ended up going to my “safety” that gave me an ample scholarship. Now, I’m into an amazing career, met the love of my life, and am set up to graduate debt-free. You end up where you’re supposed to, and try to figure out what’s most important to you: culture or competition?

[@anushadeshpande25]

This story made my day and I love that so much. Congratulations on all of that!!

congrats on your acceptances!! i am going to be a senior next year, do you have any advice or tips you can give about the college app process?

[@anushadeshpande25]

That's so exciting! Yes, I do, and I can talk about that in my next video, but basically, just be yourself - which is such a cliche, but it's true. Write essays about whatever you are passionate about. My family and I foster dogs, and that is truly my favorite thing in this world, so I wrote about fostering dogs. I'm passionate about destigmatizing menstruation, so in my common app essay, I talked about how I have tried to challenge the belief that periods are taboo. I like to think I'm a funny individual, so I put lots and lots of corny jokes into my essays. Just be yourself in your essays is what I'm trying to say.
