[narrow nest]

i don’t take anesthesia well 😁 so like 2/3 of the time it just doesn’t numb me

[unkempt wing]

WHAT?

[hallow mural]

Dartmouth simps y'all should get superbad mclovin shirts to increase your chances

[narrow nest]

[unkempt wing]

[narrow nest]

but jokingly

[unkempt wing]

DO YOU NOT DO ANY SPORTS?

[narrow nest]

no…

im not a sports person

[unkempt wing]

😦

lemme teach you tennis when we get in

[narrow nest]

i run but not as a sport

[unkempt wing]

or how to ski

[narrow nest]

ew leave me alone i have tennis trauma

[unkempt wing]

HUH!?

it's the nicest sport out there 😭

[narrow nest]

i used to be a good skier but the last time i did it i failed

no.

the only sport that i truly like is track and gymnastics

i would’ve continued gymnastics but my coach got paralyzed and my mom got terrified i would hurt myself

[unkempt wing]

gymnastics is so good!!

i have sm friends who do it

[narrow nest]

i was actually so good at it only enjoyable sport

[unkempt wing]

they try so hard not to get injured

but they do injure themselves

(inevitably)

[narrow nest]

i did it for 4 years and luckily i never got hurt

[unkempt wing]

just a diff breed 🙂

[narrow nest]

wait that’s such a lie i fractured my entire hand

LMAO

i forgot ab that

[unkempt wing]

WHOLE HAND?

[narrow nest]

yeah

luckily i didn’t break it

[unkempt wing]

i haven't had too many injuries in fencing ngl

just bruising

and this mf at a comp

he was so aggressive

[small dirge]

how do people have Intl awards

[narrow nest]

intl competitions

[unkempt wing]

he reached over and slashed me in the back of my head where i had no protection😭 that shi hurt

[narrow nest]

deserved

maya

[unkempt wing]

i should be taller ngl, then he wouldn't be able to REACH OVER my head

[narrow nest]

[unkempt wing]

5 foot 11 😭

[narrow nest]

[unkempt wing]

[narrow nest]

ghost pings 🌚

[narrow nest]

[unkempt wing]

i need to eat

[small dirge]

is that even still a thing

[narrow nest]

community service hours

wdym is it even a thing

[small dirge]

i feel like those dont even matter anymore

[narrow nest]

how do they not matter 😭

[small dirge]

cus a service hour doesnt actually quantify impact

plenty of people can like

turn up and do time

[narrow nest]

i didn’t say it meant that or anything i just asked how many 😭😭

[small dirge]

its not something ive seen actuallybe valuable in admissions paradigms

[narrow nest]

im sorry i’m so confused i get what you mean but why wouldn’t they be a thing though

[small dirge]

Oh i dodnt log any cus i didnt think they matter

[narrow nest]

this sounded rude sorry i didn’t mean it to come off like that

[small dirge]

no ur good i think juat like

i never really thought of them as important ao i didnt lag

Log

[narrow nest]

oh well atleast my state has a cs hour grad requirement

[small dirge]

ohhh

yeah my school scrapped that

[tranquil mortar]

my school still has a 40 hr req

[narrow nest]

i put my cs hours in the resume i submitted

mine has a 100

[sand shard]

Dartmouth doesn't admit by major

[small dirge]

i know i was just asking if anyone else was applying for compaci

[sand shard]

a biostats special major won't be approved, almost certainly.

[narrow nest]

yeah i know you told me but still good to hope 😭 i’ll figure it out when i get to it

[olive nymph]

jhu

[granite loom]

Prolly swat if I don’t get in

[river pawn]

maybe uchicago?

actually nah they not need blind to intls

[sand shard]

that list is real small...

[native yoke]

[rugged hare]

all amazing schools 😩

sigh i love Dartmouth so much it was hard to choose between dart and Williams for ED

[teal tundra]

@balmy flume

[sand shard]

i had this same problem

plus Yale

those 3 were all split for me to ED

[rugged hare]

are you a student at Dartmouth now?

Or ended up applying Ed there this year

[rugged hare]

I love Yale too😍

[sand shard]

I graduated in 2010

[rugged hare]

oh awesome

you loved it?

I got into Williams ED yesterday I’m happy about my decision but I will always love Dartmouth

[sand shard]

oh awesome! congrats!

I did love it

[rugged hare]

Thank you!!

[rugged hare]

I thought so it’s awesome

Were you in a frat😂

[sand shard]

i was

[balmy flume]

yes

[balmy flume]

COMMON YALE W

[rugged hare]

exactly

[balmy flume]

I didn’t REA cause that would’ve been cycle suicide

[rugged hare]

what’s cycle?

[balmy flume]

like admissions cycle

[rugged hare]

yea I was mainly choosing between Williams, Dartmouth, Yale, and also Pomona for applying early

[rugged hare]

Ohhh ok

You mean like it was better for u to apply early somewhere else?

[balmy flume]

I ended up EDing Dartmouth obv but i have Yale for RD in the event of deferral

[rugged hare]

Oh ok I see

both amazing schools

[balmy flume]

yeah, i wanted to apply EA to USC, Miami, and Howard so i couldn’t have REA’d anyways

[rugged hare]

Oooh noice

[balmy flume]

my list is reach heavy since i had automatic admission to UT already

I had Pitt and Howard as targets, Miami a little further up, and everything else was reach territory

[fading yacht]

guys sorry for cutting off the flow of the chat but

do colleges release ED decisions during the weekends?

[balmy flume]

🤷🏾‍♂️

[fading yacht]

normally they don't right?

so we should be expecting the release on Monday?

[balmy flume]

i can’t say what day but weekends would be unusual yes

[fading yacht]

rip

all that build up...

[sand shard]

I wouldn't expect it before Monday, no

[balmy flume]

well i mean it’s saturday night and it’s def not happening on a sunday

[rugged hare]

yea Dartmouth said mid December right

[sand shard]

But it could be later in the week too

[rugged hare]

My guess is the 14th or 16th

[balmy flume]

process is so much stress i wish it wasn’t feeling this way

[rugged hare]

Before my decision came out I was like Ugh ik they already made their decision why can’t they tell me now😭

[balmy flume]

ik it’s a defer/reject just send the letter

[fading yacht]

it's a gift and a curse that Dartmouth went need-blind as an international student

my chances are essentially zero

[balmy flume]

i’m domestic and still screwed

i’m glad that they did because people from other countries deserve to come here but like dawg i wanna go to dartmouth too 😭

[rugged hare]

yea tbh I never understood why the policy would be different between usa and international in terms of need blindness

[river pawn]

mostly bc fafsa doesn't apply to intl's

[rugged hare]

Ohhh ok

[river pawn]

so the university has to pay directly out of pocket for any aid

that's why rich schools are need blind

[rugged hare]

Oh I see

Thx

[balmy flume]

opening the defer/reject letter in front of my best friend is gonna be embarrassing 💀

[rugged hare]

I love rich schools😍

as someone who’s always lived in a poorer area and gone to underfunded public schools i cant wait to use all those resources at a rich school like😭

[river pawn]

^

[rugged hare]

ikr I opened mine alone in my room💀

[river pawn]

my hs is in such an underfunded district

[balmy flume]

my school district is 50 million in debt rn 💀

[rugged hare]

LOL NAHH

50 million is crazy😭

[balmy flume]

my school is already poor so we didn’t give a shit but my district is so down bad that they were going to delay checks to teachers until january 💀

the teachers complained about it and raised enough hell to get their holiday checks but bruh 😭

[elfin kelp]

Uh oh

Cornell is gonna overtake y’all

They’re playing connect 4 rn

[olive nymph]

they have more than 90 members

[elfin kelp]

Y’all were beating them for a while

[olive nymph]

ik

we are still leading

[elfin kelp]

Go get a following

[balmy flume]

ofc there’s gonna be more discussion around a safety

[elfin kelp]

They’re playing uno rn

[olive nymph]

yeah true🤣🤣🤣

[balmy flume]

nerds

[river hinge]

nerds

[tranquil mortar]

we need to be more neurotic

[rugged hare]

that ghetto suny😭

[balmy flume]

We probably wont get anything updates until at least Monday though

[elfin kelp]

Beat this then

[tawdry zealot]

i'll be giving the best best man speech ever

[olive nymph]

How long do we need to wait???😭😭😭

[fading yacht]

bruh why are results not coming out alr

[olive nymph]

why is this thread soooo dead?

[sand shard]

It's early on a Sunday?

[olive nymph]

Ohh timezone

!dartmouth

!cornell

[light hull]

Cornell Decision Date

The decision date is <t:1671148800> in your local time
4 days, 8 hours and 42 minutes until the decision date

[olive nymph]

!dartmouth

@elfin kelp why is !dartmouth not working?

[elfin kelp]

Bc it doesn’t exist

[olive nymph]

duh

but in morning it was showing

like it was showing application deadline

[river hinge]

is it the same for Dartmouth

Werent they supposed to release decisions within two days of the portal notification?!

[sand shard]

Weekend?

[pearl sandal]

maybe weekends dont count

[river hinge]

yh maybe

should we have hopes for tommorow then?

[pearl sandal]

i think so

[sand shard]

Could be

[pearl sandal]

after seeing the portal change i got so confident that they r releasing it Friday

but turns out they didnt

[river hinge]

yh everyone was hyped

[pearl sandal]

im in a different time zone so i stayed up till 3

only to get an email asking me to try logging into my portal

bruh

[river hinge]

yh. didnt sleep the whole night too

[olive nymph]

i was awake until 5:30 am

just for that

[granite loom]

Good morning

[river hinge]

morning sipper

[granite loom]

Another day another day

[strange anchor]

Good morning/afternoon guys

[azure rock]

hi guys! are we thinking tmrw at 5pm est for ed results??

[sand shard]

could be

nobody really knows much

[azure rock]

hm alright

[sand shard]

just gotta wait until they send the update

or the "heads up for the update"

[azure rock]

yeah feel like the waitings kill me

esp bc they sent the email on the day of

so im just expecting a curveball atp😭

[river pawn]

i'm thinking it's gonna be on the 15th

pray for tomorrow tho

[narrow nest]

apparently it got super delayed but we never really know until the update email

[azure rock]

wait what got delayed

the decision notification date?

[narrow nest]

well alumns have been told that the aos got delayed this year but that’s kinda it

[high moat]

they have released the notification on later dates before, I don't think it's delayed now as long as it's before mid-december

[narrow nest]

so it’s just a waiting game

[high moat]

also they gon' send an email regarding the date and time so yeah it's just a waiting game

[azure rock]

i see i see

thanks guys

[narrow nest]

np 🫡

[azure rock]

also i saw that there was a whole theory about a fin aid email??

[narrow nest]

where are you from

[azure rock]

what are your thoughts on that

[high moat]

nah

[narrow nest]

dont believe that

means nothing

happens every year

[azure rock]

nj

[high moat]

just an email telling you that you did something wrong or you just forgot to add smth

[narrow nest]

you won’t know if you’re in or not until they tell you so don’t stress about that stuff

[azure rock]

yeah that's true

[high moat]

yup, just wait for that status update button to decide

[azure rock]

omg ive been refreshing so often

[narrow nest]

goodluck on decision day💏

[azure rock]

we all got this fr

gl to everyone

[narrow nest]

youll know it’s coming out so don’t worry ab refreshing

[high moat]

I don't think they gon' send an email on sundays

it's so confusing the timezone difference

[azure rock]

reallyy hoping for that email tmrw

seeing the portal update and all

[narrow nest]

have your other stuff ready though cause it could potentially come out later so don’t bank on ed

[azure rock]

yeah that's true

ive been trying to do my rds and stuff recently

[narrow nest]

notbing is garunteed so be prepared for the worst case scenario

[high moat]

haha yeah, I'm over lucid dreams about dartmouth ed

[narrow nest]

ME I HAD A DREAM WHERE I GOT AN ACCEPTANCE LETTER

[high moat]

lmao two of my friends had a dream about me getting in

it just made it worse 😭

[azure rock]

😭😭

[river hinge]

dream it till u make it baby!!

[sand shard]

They haven't sent anything like that to interviewers yet, at least according to my wife

[granite loom]

Mfs forgot to send us our results 💀💀

[dapper canyon]

dw they already moved on to RD

imagine

results postponed to march 👍

[narrow nest]

oh well the head of the alumni committee in my area told my dad that but could be a speculation could be the truth i wouldn’t know so thank you for telling me that

[sand shard]

I think it is speculation. They haven't said anything. Best I have to work from is that they are asking alums to send a quick clip for a welcome vid and the deadline is tomorrow, but that doesnt mean the video will go out with acceptances

[balmy flume]

I had a dream about getting in i need to stop thinking about this so much 😭

GOD DAMN LETTER JUST APPEAR ON MY MAGIC LIGHT BOX ALREADY

[small dirge]

Arent ed results like really delayed

[sand shard]

Nobody knows

[small dirge]

like to 22nd or something

someone said something about their like dad and alumni meeting

[sand shard]

best data point is that historically the release has tailed the email that was sent friday by a few days

[sand shard]

i don't find that story credible

[small dirge]

ah

Idk

I hope it takes longer

[tranquil mortar]

why longer

I just wanna get this over w 😭

[small dirge]

i want them to process my update

[tranquil mortar]

ohh

I think someone earlier called them and they said they’d still take his peer rec

so they’re still processing stuff I assume

[small dirge]

oh sweet

imma send in my resume today

[river hinge]

prolly bcz he is in!! ig

[small dirge]

goat

[river hinge]

lol

[tranquil mortar]

I did what u did and sent a grade update last night so I’m also kinda hoping they process it

[small dirge]

yeahhh

@tranquil mortar do u have time to give feedback on the resume im submitting

i dont know how it works for resumes u submit to college

[tranquil mortar]

i didn’t submit a resume to any school

but I could take a look

I think in general if the resume isn’t just a repeat of ur activities list it’s fine

[small dirge]

it clarifies some more stuff

bc mostly my issue is

[sand shard]

biggest things are to keep it to 1 page, highlight the most important stuff, keep the descriptions short with active verbs and quantify your accomplishments when possible

[small dirge]

i did this one research thing

and won an award at a college radiology dept for it

and i have those respecively on my ec and award list

but i didnt specify that the award is for that research

[tranquil mortar]

ah I see

yea a resume might be helpful then

[small dirge]

Wait a minute

[tranquil mortar]

for RD schools u can prob just clarify in additional info section

[small dirge]

Do i not include all my ECs?

[sand shard]

does that fit on one page?

[small dirge]

no

it takes up like 2 lol

[sand shard]

then figure how to get it to 1

[small dirge]

should i only include the stuff that needs elaboration?

[sand shard]

that isn't a bad idea

but I'd prioritize your most important things

[river hinge]

are resumes important?

[balmy flume]

i shouldn’t have to send a grade update if my HS is in semesters right

[river hinge]

i remember asking my interviewer if i was to prepare it till our interview, and she said no

[tranquil mortar]

they aren’t that important

unless there’s something u want to flesh out that u can’t fit into the activities list

[balmy flume]

should prob send my updated resume, got a promotion post-deadline

[tranquil mortar]

(I think)

[tranquil mortar]

is this related to your ice cream churning EC

or a diff job

[balmy flume]

no, something else, also not a job

[tranquil mortar]

oh wait like u make ice cream as a hobby

[balmy flume]

yeah

[tranquil mortar]

that’s cool wtf

[balmy flume]

so many people have said that but it’s not difficult tbh 😭

[tranquil mortar]

it’s still unique

[balmy flume]

thanks

[dapper canyon]

mit typa ec

“tell us something you do for fun”

[balmy flume]

i don’t have MIT level math ability though 😭

i would’ve def applied if my SAT had been higher

[small dirge]

@sand shard can i send u my stuff

[balmy flume]

i did all the MIT dorky stuff as a kid though

[dapper canyon]

my ACT is too low for mit

[balmy flume]

and still do some of it

[dapper canyon]

i retook yesterday

so i’m on copium

[balmy flume]

I can’t fit calculus into my schedule either so no MIT ig

[river hinge]

yh makes sense

[dapper canyon]

MIT doesn’t fit into my schedule 👁

harvard might though.

[sand shard]

ok, pm me a google drive link or something and I can give some thoughts

for you resume

[balmy flume]

hoping Dartmouth fits into mine but it prob won’t

[balmy flume]

modify game boy colors and bake, mostly

[river hinge]

@sand shardquick question though. do u think aos will take new material into consideration given the decisions are prolly already made?!

[strange anchor]

Sorry, what does aos mean?

[river hinge]

admissions officers

[strange anchor]

Ohhh

Thanks

[river hinge]

np

im also kinda new to all these terms. lol

[sand shard]

i woudln't bank on much changing now, but who knows

[narrow nest]

TJAT IS SO CUTE

[balmy flume]

should i send in a resume with a singular but slightly notable update

[dapper canyon]

maybe wait to see if you get deferred and submit a LOCI

[balmy flume]

alr

[dapper canyon]

accumulate for your loci and knock them outta the park

[balmy flume]

mfw getting deferred would probably require me to retake the SAT

[dapper canyon]

right that’s why i retook the act :(

[balmy flume]

praying and hoping the test optional pulled through

[strange anchor]

Good night everyone🌲💤

[small dirge]

Any update on when ED will come out?

[pearl sandal]

i feel like everyone can only make guesses

will have to wait for the email anyways

[high moat]

yeah, i hope they'd send the emails today btw

[pearl sandal]

me2

[devout patio]

this anxiety ;-;

[narrow nest]

guys if you get accepted what’s the first thing you’ll do

[devout patio]

try to sleep

[balmy flume]

tell my friends and go back to watching adventure time

[zinc oriole]

Throw a party cuz thats what i promised some of my friends

Yall also invited if youre willing to make the flight to india

[fading yacht]

i don't think it's coming out today guys

rip

very confusing

[granite loom]

Bums posting on insta like they don’t have thousands of kids stressed

[granite loom]

Yeah they don’t do Monday’s

Prolly Tues/Thursday most likely

[fading yacht]

I saw that

insta story a

and my heart sank

they playing too much

[granite loom]

Frrr

A few more days tho

[still creek]

Hello guys!! What majors have y’all applied for? What are y’all hoping to do in the future?

All the best 🙂

[fading yacht]

I applied as an English Major and I hope to become a journalist/writer !

hbu

[zinc oriole]

Like the stereotypical indian kid i applied for cs but im not that good at math💀

Instead of a 9-5 job im more interested in Entrepreneurship

[still creek]

Oh wow!! I applied for Environmental Studies. Anyone here into wildlife??😂

[sand shard]

Remember that Dartmouth doesn't admit by major

what you put on your application means nothing

[still creek]

But wouldn’t applying for a not so common/popular major make some amount of difference?

[sand shard]

not that I know of

given that people could exploit that by saying they all want to be German majors

and then do ECON

[tranquil mortar]

pay my friend 200

I bet 200 i wouldn’t get in so if I get rejected imma be saving 200

[still creek]

Yes true but if you show that you’re truly passionate about pursuing that major through your essays, activities etc then would that make some difference?

[sand shard]

maybe

but agian, you have 5 terms until you can declare your major

they know a lot can change

[still creek]

Yes true!

[small dirge]

lamo

[small dirge]

[tranquil mortar]

LMFAO

[small dirge]

twinnem

[tranquil mortar]

hedging the rejection

[gloomy frigate]

when are the decisions comin out?

[sand shard]

mid december 😄

[small dirge]

Probably end of this week or next

[fading yacht]

I am hoping that it comes out by late tmr

Dartmouth has a weird way of notifying ed applicants on the day of the release so

let's be optimistic!

[balmy flume]

chemistry + federal gov

[granite loom]

EnvE + Public Policy

[strange anchor]

Econ and anthro

[sand shard]

I minored in Athro!

[slim loom]

I did! I think I applied for environment studies major + public policy and neuroscience minor

[strange anchor]

Nice!

[granite loom]

HEYYY

ILY ILY ILY

We’re the SAME!!!

[slim loom]

Nice nice

I never thought I'd do public policy until I went to their summer series lol

Them I'm like I'm only doing public policy if I get into Dartmouth

[dense jasper]

Slayyy environmental studies and public policy!!

[balmy flume]

i just remembered that i’d promised someone i’d propose if i got in so ig i’d get married 🧍🏾‍♂️

[slim loom]

Thank you!!!

[elfin kelp]

[high moat]

[slim loom]

Did the portal change for yall

[high moat]

[slim loom]

[elfin kelp]

tbf based on almost every ivy being thursday thats the best guess rn

[balmy flume]

ig so atp

[high moat]

yeah it's the same, just click on the 2023 early decision and it gon' get you to that normal page

[elfin kelp]

yall shouldnt be memorizing your portals

[balmy flume]

clearly this determines whether or not being called a nerd and made fun of for the last 4 years was worth it don’t minimize my stress woman /s

(the answer, regardless of whether or not i am accepted, is no)

[granite loom]

I’m gonna sacrifice my fingernails tonight in hope of decisions tomorrow

[sand shard]

I always travel in a dartmouth shirt or jacket. You run into people everywhere

[narrow nest]

dartmouth people are hot because dartmouth is hot

[sand shard]

Haha

[narrow nest]

best school has the best kids🤭

[granite loom]

cc^ colorado college

[narrow nest]

i hear it’s kinda bad

idk anything know

[granite loom]

i doubt that it's "bad" but i like amherst better :3

[balmy flume]

imagine applying to the wrong dartmouth

[granite loom]

they post cooler pics on ig

and they have a dedicated umass squirrels page

❤️

[narrow nest]

[balmy flume]

[granite loom]

[narrow nest]

😭

yes

[granite loom]

or smth idk

[balmy flume]

coral gables pls, not ohio 😭

[river hinge]

[narrow nest]

coral gables is so dumb you can’t have sororities cause it’s considered a brothel

[balmy flume]

why isn’t UMiami called UCoralGables

[granite loom]

i applied to cc on a whim 😭

my first rejection boutta be them

i applied TO + shit essay written in 10 mins

[granite loom]

[granite loom]

virgo on top

[olive nymph]

Dartmouth likes bottoms

[granite loom]

Good thing I oscillate ❤️

[narrow nest]

true

[strange anchor]

Good night guys hopefully the dates come out tomorrow🌲💤🤞

[river pawn]

guys apparently caltech came out and my friend with literally perfect everything was deferred

getting scared

[strange anchor]

But that’s Caltech

🤷‍♂️

[river pawn]

true

prob the hardest college to get into period

for a stem student

[strange anchor]

Ya pretty much. Also perfect stats isn’t the only thing that they look at

So don’t get discouraged guys🤞🌲📈

[elfin kelp]

if no date is announced tomorrow i am pinning this

i expect it to be announced tomorrow tbf but itd be really funny if it wasnt

[edgy belfry]

i thought it would come out w the other ivy's

[karmic elk]

Yes!

[granite loom]

Opp

[balmy flume]

what if they just forget to release the decisions 💀

[sand shard]

what a twist!

jjust skip 2027

[balmy flume]

either way i won’t end up a part of it, EDII to WUSTL go brrrrr

[tranquil mortar]

they have temperpedic mattresses in their dorms

😳

[balmy flume]

exactly

[narrow nest]

me with this decision date

[zinc oriole]

Same 💀
Im half assing every lecture i attend

[granite loom]

Added them to my close friends ❤️❤️❤️

[narrow nest]

i should start venting in their dms

do you follow opal?

[narrow nest]

i’m kinda just neutral im trying to work on my other applications but everytime i try it feels fake i just need the decision already 😭

[zinc oriole]

Soo true, at this point i dont need anything fancy like a whole essay or confetti or something on acceptance or rejection just the one word is enough

[river hinge]

i dont see why they felt the need to send those notifications if they didnt want to release the decisions

[tranquil mortar]

not that trustworthy but fits w the consensus that it’ll be out later this week

[sand shard]

this has no basis to believe

no credibility

[zinc oriole]

False hopes ☕️

[tranquil mortar]

yea, I think Thursday is most likely

but who knows

[balmy flume]

“who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone” is crazy 💀

[sand shard]

I know people on the board personally, and if I asked them, they would not tell me

[balmy flume]

I know an alum involved w dartmouth admissions and they can’t even tell me 💀

[sand shard]

like who works for the admissions office?

[balmy flume]

no, but semi-related to the admissions process

[sand shard]

like an interviewer?

[balmy flume]

yeah

[sand shard]

yeah, they find out after you do

I've got my wife keeping an eye out for any emails she gets

[balmy flume]

Honestly wish we’d just hear something

[sand shard]

soon ™️

[balmy flume]

ik it’ll be a defer/reject but just send it so i can fill my EDII or wtv 😭

[sand shard]

totally get that

[river hinge]

im totally paralyzed for days now, cant think of anything else.

[balmy flume]

people thinking i’ll be an outright acceptance or an outright reject not making it any less stressful

prob got past academic screening and nothing else 💀

[river hinge]

if this doesnt go the way im hoping, it will be very very bad for me

[balmy flume]

i’ve accepted that i’ll prob have to wait on them other apps

i gotta get taken by at least 1 reach, right ?

[river hinge]

im rooting for ya Pres

[balmy flume]

thanks 🙏🏾

you too 🤞🏾

[balmy flume]

very messed up path of thinking but like maybeee

[narrow nest]

holding you to this. also tell your wife i am forever in her debt for this info 💏

[narrow nest]

!dartmouth

if only.

[river pawn]

still no email ahhhhh

calling it rn we get the email tomorrow and decisions come out thursday 😎

[small dirge]

literally

[river hinge]

Damn this is taking so freaking long

[small dirge]

breh

[tranquil mortar]

fr i need a defer/reject to motivate me to start my RD apps 😭

[narrow nest]

yes exactly

[river pawn]

i just keep telling myself that i've been rejected/deferred so i don't slack on my essays and i work on them

i think it's not a good idea to leave everything until after the decision date

but at the same time i don't wnat to do all this work for nothing so idk

[narrow nest]

i’ve been doing a bit of work but i’m definitely not gonna have everything ready

also i called my mom and she assumed i got rejected and came running to my room and almost started crying …. i didn’t even say a word she just assumed 😭

[unkempt wing]

i got marketing emails from upenn and nyu😭

but no dartmouth

ugh

the patience will pay off 😄

[narrow nest]

sending this but not ed date is torture

[river hinge]

at this point, it seems like they arent releasing it anytime soon. forget 14 and 15 brothers. no chance.

[sand shard]

I don't see why 15 isn't totally in play

could also be FFriday, since they seem to like that too

[river hinge]

we can just hope they do it sooner than later

[small dirge]

good

[wispy dove]

brown EDer here… going through the same thing

[azure rock]

brown and dartmouth 🤝 not receiving any date or any sign of notification

[wispy dove]

fr why are they deciding to be quirky

[strange anchor]

Let’s go 💚🤎

We gotta collab🙌

[balmy flume]

@elfin kelp you can pin this now btw

[balmy flume]

LMAO

[narrow nest]

the cruel fate of a dartmouth ed applicant

[azure rock]

i hate to get my hopes up again for the millionth time but i feel like it might be thursday idk

[fading yacht]

oh my god

[azure rock]

😭

[fading yacht]

and j let it be

[azure rock]

LMAOOO

[tawdry zealot]

credit to carly

[river hinge]

i just hope that 22nd conspiracy isnt true

[pearl sandal]

whats taking them so long ;-;

more internationals due to need-blind policy?

[river hinge]

prolly that

significantly more internationals

the admit rate is gonna crush down

[pearl sandal]

oh no

[river hinge]

thats just my speculation

[pearl sandal]

i know lol

[river hinge]

early decisons not gonna change much but regular will sure do

prolly

[pearl sandal]

but yeah Dartmouth is hard to get in anyways ;-;

[river hinge]

agree

lets hope for the best

[dapper canyon]

you can’t just NOT include yourself, i sincerely hope you get in

you’ve gotta manifest for yourself bestie

[tranquil mortar]

we all getting in

[river hinge]

thanks icy

i feeling we might hear sth today! what u all think

[tranquil mortar]

maybe an email telling us the decision date

[sand merlin]

Maybe nothing per usual😭

[narrow nest]

from what i know they started late or soemtbing cause they scheduled all the interviews a week later than last year

[river hinge]

which means?? not 15 or 16??

i hope not

[narrow nest]

idk what it means but that’s why it’s later this year

[river hinge]

hmm.

these uni ads are killing me. ngl every 20 mins one pops up. mini heart attacks

[pearl sandal]

hmm also a possibility ig

[river hinge]

Tulane, loyola marmouth, rise..... no clue hw they found me lol

[pearl sandal]

i received my interview on 11/10, which is kinda early

[still creek]

Did anyone not get an interview?

[narrow nest]

well it’s not that it was late the admission office sent the list of applicants out late

[strange anchor]

I’m sorry to be that guy, but did anyone else’s portal change to a selection of applications?

[strange anchor]

Idk honesty I think I’m just going crazy🤪

[river hinge]

conspiracy theories time

[narrow nest]

it just happens sometimes don’t stress like sometimes it’s there sometimes it’s not

[sand merlin]

Sometimes my portal does that too and sometimes it doesn’t I think it’s just the website

[river hinge]

hey btw anyone applied last year too?

[strange anchor]

[narrow nest]

no

[strange anchor]

Nah

[sand shard]

User on reddit posted a screenshot from an insta DM that an email is coming soon with Friday. This is just a screenshot, so could be fabricated

Isn't it obvious that it will arrive by Friday?

that's the worst case scenario

screenshot looks legit...

[balmy flume]
