LOL
last i checked i don't have a tail
unless the cornell bitches surgically added one to me while i was taking a nap
cornell is better than UChicago
BAO
tail debater -> debates about tails
THATS TREASON
not debates people with tails
youre The Creator tho
that’s not very UChicago of you
#1 free speech
smh
Their engineering school has different objectives. That's a fact
that's actually what i wrote about in my why uchicago essay to an extent
Me too!
bc i actually do care a lot about free speech on campus
i checked fire rankings and also read campus policies + free expression commitments
uchicago is actually so cool i'm gonna be so sad if they reject me dude
Their engineering school is far less focused on creating 'engineers' and really just moreso about applied sciences
cornell is a W school and the only ivy I would like
I realize those are very closely related, but there is a distinction
Cornell is fine
Just not my flavor
me too, that's why I ED'd lol
uw is actually my top choice
below that would be good LACs like grinnell and swarthmore
cmu would prob be my second choice
Okay Bao
unfortunately they don’t have ed
and then after the good LACs is whatever colleges have the hottest guys
in order
or cutest
yeah my top choice is actually minerva
bros going to college to rizz up guys 💀
men have needs and those include platonic cuddles from cute guys
Lmfao valid
Platonic hugs are great
or not platonic i don't really care
Bro
i'm just saying though....
Cornell people blaming me for messing up their SS of the 10,000 posts
I didn't do anything 😭
imagine if they do a surprise release on the 16th
That'd be epic
im just gonna long hold the view decision letter button
if the preview doesn’t shown any colorful bubbles
turning off the phone
I don't know what to expect, so I'm just going to open it and be surprised
Thank you for checking on your application status! At this time, we have processed all of your application materials, and our committee is in the process of finalizing decisions for Early Action and Early Decision-1 applicants. We will notify you via email when your admissions decision is ready to be viewed; we expect to release admissions decisions in mid-December and will share our decision release date on our website when it is finalized.
there isn’t
BAO
it’s just colorful bubbles at the top
Don't tell me
BAO
:/
I'm going to forget you said anything
anyways
I'm gonna go to bed
😎
I'll see y'all tomorrow
did u ever tour umich
January 1, 2023. You haven't looked at your UChicago decision yet, as you didn't want any spoilers. You can't control the curiosity anymore, though--you open the UChicago website on your mobile phone. Nervously, you enter in your credentials and press the login button, expecting an update in your application status to pop up. Instead: "Thank you for checking on your application status! At this time, we have processed all of your application materials, and our committee is in the process of finalizing decisions for Early Action and Early Decision-1 applicants. We will notify you via email when your admissions decision is ready to be viewed; we expect to release admissions decisions in mid-December and will share our decision release date on our website when it is finalized."
when
ic ic
idk how it is in the summer
Not bad
because I only went in October and I was dying
A little warm, but usually they stay around 70-85 in the summer
so like 25C
Somtimes you get those really hot days at like 90-100, but they aren't too often
More like 25-30
well 22-30
uchi admissions are basically
first reading (regional ao) -> second reading (regional ao) -> committee
right?
better than here ig
The hot days can get up to like 35 C
you don’t have to question it
the council has already decided your fate
no i'm asking bc i told someone that
bc i watched fucking
uchi application file videos
but i don't remember if that's the case
i'm pretty sure it is though
biscuit asked
bao this is
lmfao
ACADEMIC INQUIRY
bao
but is this knowledge truly worth it to be sought after
true
@radiant hawk imagine if you changed your preferred name in the portal to "Fun"
Imagine if you changed it to "Accept me"
lmfaoooo
u should do it
no i'd get murdered
I will kiss your Yale interviewer
discord update downloads
my discord theme breaks
oh my fucking god i forgot how ugly stock discord is
Yea, so "Accepts Mes" application was pretty good. Accept Me's essays were generally well written with good, strong messages that align with our ideology. Accept Me's ECs were pretty strong. Definite leadership qualities, although they definitely were lacking in major-related activities. Accept me's video profile was excellent, though a little long. Overall, I think Accept me is qualified for admission, though not a stand-out applicant."
oh thank god i fixed my theme
💀
After writing that out, I feel actually pretty okay about my chances.
Like, lowkey I could maybe make it
If I get deferred...
im not restraining anything
Hello
How're you doing on this fine evening
going to write a LoCI in Korean expressing how I love UChicago
I'm trying to write NYU but idek if this org still exists
gila lu astoge
Honestly, that is not a bad idea
Hahaha, need help?
I mean
unless you know whether or not the NYU Indonesian Students Association is still active at NYU
Idk if you can help lmao
One seocnd
bark
making a conlang for uchicago
@versed salmon From what I can tell, it still shows up on Engage, so you should be fine. the AOs will NOT know whether it went under or not. Let's be honest, they don't know everything
If it is still on Engage, then you're probably fine
Discover unique opportunities at NYU Engage! Find and attend events, browse and join organizations, and showcase your involvement.
Contact them from that link
See posts, photos and more on Facebook.
@versed salmon It looks like they stopped meeting following the summer of '21
their facebook has been dead for 2 years
That's what I was thinkign
Damn, we are good internet sleuthers
That's also a concern
if I get into UChicago we gotta start a conlang club
Do I say that I want to continue their mission?
I wouldn't worry about it DNX
I feel like that's the safest bet here right
Yea
i had the most cursed conlang idea ever earlier but i never completed it
I like that a lot actually
It really gives you a sense of purpose and drive. Also, seems really genuine since you want to build of their previous success and revitalize that part of the campus
woof bark rawr owo uwu
conlang?
constructed lang
mm
Plays into my ecs/race
I would join
we could write a ling paper about furries @radiant hawk
race for me is a bit thing
we need to find a prof who's cool enough
Yea, see like the perfect thing to say tbh
💀
Naw
I'm waiting on some emails here and there
Not too perfect, just right
we gon go 4-0 with columbia on friday!!!
5-0 with uchi before then perhaps??? 
did you guys know one of the guys at furscience got her phd at uchicago
Associate Professor, Duquesne University. Degrees: Ph.D., University of Chicago, Department of Comparative Human Development, Clinical Program M.A., University of Chicago, Department of Comparative Human Development B.A., summa cum laude, Swarthmore College Field of study or research: Autism, neurodiversity, identity, clinical psychology, clinic...
I mean, I guess it really depends on how much you've played into race, but it sounds like it is a theme in your application, not a focus-point / central point, which is what you want
press x for doubt
it's the central theme of my commonapp essay lol
how did she get her phd
nah fam press y for YESSIREE
It's the common app, that's where race should be talked about
No but genuinely I think I have a solid chance at UChi
my quirky essay was very quirky
You applied EA, right?
mhm
what can you do with a PhD from UChicago at the Department of Comparative Human Development? this
It'll be tough then
idk but she seems talented given she graduated summa cum laude from swarthmore for her ba
💀
College admissions in general is tough
summa cum laude from swarthmore cannot be easy
Yea, but I'm saying uChicago tough, not college admission tough. The EA round is not super easy to get into with (although better than RD)
Right right
swarthmore is already full of the smartest kids out there, then on top of that she placed in the top 3% of swarthmore students
Yea no, not easy at all
so like this furry scientist clearly knows what she's doing
What did you write your UChicago essays about?
among us sus
DM me and I'll share
My was about thought/ideas
I think the good thing about UChi essays (the quirky ones) is that they really make you think
for mine i had to do a shitton of research
Yes
uchi alone i have dozens of tabs open for research

What is your 💀 role?
nitro boosters get custom roles
like if you click on me you can see my top role is catboy
@teal mauve wtf is the ab role what does it do
i think it blocks you from smth you kept spamming
might need to get nitro just to get a special role

only if I get accepted though
provided you dont do it again sure

custom booster
yeah sure i won't given i don't even remember what i was spamming
probably spamming furry stuff
i think it was when you kept using the report command for bs
naughty
i use furry emojis and stickers in official company chats at my internship
i just do not gaf
Oh sweet
(using furry stickers while talking about a security flaw on a development server in an official staff chat)
looks complex
i relay the same to you that i did to dartmouth: this gets pinned if nothing is announced tomorrow
I TAKE IT BACK
low key Cornell better
in a week at this time we’ll either be sleeping peacefully or writing essays rn
at least Cornell doesn’t tease with decision dates
cornell is only good for that and having the greatest applicant pool w no life (10k messages ???)
LMFAO
ok but we also have no life
one is a raging furry
That's why they all commit suicide, they're attached to Discord like it's life support
a lot of things actually
multiple
multiple keep doxing themselves
hahaha, that's funny
...
Hehehehehe
I have to be at a meeting in 5 hours
It's worth it though, free bagels
THEY'RE THE SAME PERSON
Lol
I think Bao was calling me the boomer
What if we all got accepted...
Just a thought
That'd be kind of epic
We could have a reunion on day 1
Good morning
No info yet
Gosh darn
They will most likely announce this afternoon or late morning, so probably sometime between 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM CST
I soooo hope the announcement is today
I've finished my early action 10 schools in 4 days before the deadline
fuck the principal at my school for these attendance policies man
i shouldn't have to force myself to go to school when i'm extremely sick
damn gj
some of us didn't shotgun 😊
Tf
you're lucky it's finals day for me
and i can't obsessively check my inbox
my school's policies are so ass. the only way to get around it is a doctor's note and i can't afford a good doctor :^)
😭😭😭 me who just sits at home missing school 4 days in a week
What if you just don't go
Will they punish you somehow?
I’ve had it going since nov 1 ):
well thank god those are my free-er periods
i can obsessively check my phone 😭
but could someone ping me in this chat if they announce decision date pls
Will do 😸
wdym
our finals are paused because of a fucking tornado
only in texas bruh 
i was taking my ap music theory final when the sirens went off
i didn’t take ap music theory because i have trauma from old music theory classes
too difficult
i'm in a fucking choir practice room waiting for the tornado to go away
our teacher left the radio on and i can hear news reports about the damage in grapevine
kekw
Actually? Damn
only if they choose to announce it
Dude my brother is in Carrollton
And he sent me a video of it
Be safe
Wait why do we think decisions are being released today
i am your brother
We think they’re going to announce the decision date today
i'm safe and after your first couple of tornado warnings you stop caring
it's less of a scary thing and more of an inconvenience
I was in (removed lol) when that tornado hit us a few months ago
Doxxing myself kinda so I’m gonna remove this after lol
But it destroyed a shit ton of the city
goddamn
I was waiting at home all day for the tornado to hit and the warning went away so I got in my car and drove to go get dinner with my bf
And I drove like right through where the tornado was forming LMAO
It hit my entire neighborhood except my house
okay it's going into plano
oh my god
you are insane
I should’ve wrote about the tornado almost throwing me off the interstate overpass
should have
Ohhh thank you
!uchicago
okay going back to my final bye guys
Will do
Well, that is if they post them today, which they may or may not
Good luck!
Lol
my gut feeling is that decisions will be on monday
they havent ever posted the announcement later than the 15th so itll be today or tomorrow im sure
Hope...
i have secret witchy powers and i think itll be announced today
Yea, but they normally give ample awareness so if the announcement isn't today or tomorrow, it more likely than not will be on Monday
I guess we've never considered if it would be Saturday morning
Could that be?
MIT is saturday so maybe
day 3 of begging uchicago to release their decisions 🙏🙏🙏🙏
it better be
so it’s probably going to be monday ngl if we’re basing it off of trends
crying 😭
fr
friday would be such a perfect day to get decisions
what kind of evil school decides to ruin a whole week by releasing decisions on a monday
literally
Didn't know if it was a possibility or not
fr
Cooking breakfast rn to get my mind off of decisions </3
how yk
Speculating, and historically they post it at/around noon
men love me, ap music theory finals fear me
"uchicago decision date? uchicago decision date? uchicago decision date?"
embed fail
Noon central time right?
If we get in I’m dropping my ig handle
And updating my bio
I comment on a lot of the uchicago posts LMAO
did you comment on the new one 💀
I removed my comment it’s ok
Good idea
good
I almost saw it
Lmfaooo
It was the only real comment barring the robot comments
remove that
Thank you LOL
LOL
It’s cool just don’t dox me please </3
I trust y’all lol
I really hope they post today
It’s all I can think about I feel like a loser
don't worry, we all feel you 🥲
How were you guys able to tell when they made the post in past years?
theres been so many accidental doxxing incidents on this thread its so funny
also im literally stressing sm bc of this uchicago decision for no reason
@onyx sedge accidentally dozzed himself with almost all of his info in dms the other day LMAO
I nearly did the same
LMAO
this could be us if we get in 😢
if we get in, let's all be friends and meet somewhere on campus on the first day of classes 😭 🗿
We should go get coffee together
And if I get rejected from uchicago but get into northwestern I’d still love to meet y’all lol
imagine going to a school named after a compass direction
I checked some of the historical dates
2017 was Dec 17
2018 was Dec 18
2019 unknown
2020 was Dec 21 but that’s covid year
2021 was Dec 17
So prob around 17-18
welcome welcome LOL
Yeah I ED’d as well
Yeah we are the best
Only we don't know our date
So we chat a lot to kill the anxiety
Is this right??
I checked the Facebook posts for UChicagos account
And used those dates
once we get the date, this thread is going to die for like 2-4 days
about 14 min until its noon in chicago
if they dont release today im gonna cry
Last year they released today
I submitted my app September 18th 😭
EA
I submitted mine 10 minutes before the deadline LMAO I feel bad 

no bc i couldnt deal w the stress of thinking what if the portal crashes lol
Same

so in 9 min?

@broken mason look at this
Yeah so I was right
These are decision dates
not post dates
Also I got 2017 and 2018 reversed
It isn’t necessarily lost hope for today
It doesn’t say when it was posted last time
So it could be later today
so evil ngl
🥹

They’re teasing us at this point
Imagine they don’t announce dates and just drop the decision on us
Obviously I want them to take as much time as they need to make sure everyone gets the correct fit and decision but good lord I need just a date 😭😭
@ me if there is pls
just give me a yes or no
yeah honestly what is an extra 2 days going to do
just tell me if im rejected
let me work on my other supps
PLEASE
I forgot my app portal password ☠️
lmao fr
cant wait till i see uchicago on #1048131949367144448
thats when ill stop spamming this thread
I’ll still spam this thread
Me rn:

fr
They say yeat you keep on evolving, how you so steady with it
Yeat 🤤
This shit got me singing money so big
Gonna listen to bladee to get me through today ✅
😭🔥
literally so anxious for this
At this point I’m bouta bust out 679 to keep me going
i was so chill abt all my decisions except columbia but now the anxiety is flaring up & i can't stop thinking abt uchi
SAME
i applied cus my parents wanted me to and then i wrote the why uchi supp & liked the school and now im nervous
literally cant do anything productive bc of this decision
I saw the 2 new posts and was like
except i did EA & wrote my supps three days before the deadline so im getting a rejection
me too LOL
we can be rejected twins
double homicide or whatever
⁉️
all i want is to be in the #✨-celebration-station for uchicago LOL
Dude, I thought that was for this year. You scared me
Word on the street is that the decisions are coming out the 21st....
How do you know?
monday at max
college is my bitch
uchicago thread is where all fun goes to die
those acceptances r my bitches
fr
who needs men when u have colleges
Nah, I need a woman
boys
⁉️

NOOO
Don't accept defeat yet
I thought you were gonna hit me with the boys [insert dub[
such is our fate
There is still hope. It's not the end of the work day. They could post it later today
facts
Every time I go into my app portal I see the status update and i'm like
jk pls accept me
fr
can we please get decisions soon im going out of my mind
Yes, you will see it with your decision
If you ED, and it is too little aid, you can negotiate with AOs, a little
I am ED
I'll come too I live near Chicago

Guys if you need any food/things to do recs lmk
In Chicago
I need a how to not get shot guide
Where’d you get the info
Where is this 21st coming from
yeah I was wondering the same
Who is the streets
it only came out one time on the 21st and that was covid year
That’s what I was thinking
My gut is saying Monday the 19th
I’m hoping it comes Friday but I’m betting on next Monday
fridays the 16th right?
i beg for the 16th ngl
any announcement?
OH MY GOD RAMEN
haiiiiiiii :3
long time no see
ramen why do you need the decision date you already got a likely
i am not a fart
yep!
and now we wait
i did more research into uchicago after we talked
turned out it seemed like the perfect fit for me
did you run the npc
yeah I did
what'd you get
I won't reveal the exact number but my family isn't low income
we're around middle class maybe the upper portion of middle
Tf
22k efc 💀
$30 ⁉️
20k adjusted gross income
yeah it's honestly too much 😭😭 i can't afford $30
thats kinda heat I guess
idk how i'm gonna go if i get in if i have to pay $30...
I'm paying at least 50% tuiton
yeah
its fine, I'm an only child so my parents can afford it. Plus I'm taking some of it on
oh only child gang
yeah thats how it be sometimes 🔥
You got a likely @broken mason ?
Yes I did
let me blur out the important stuff
guys i have something to admit 💔 i'm an anthropology student at uc hicago doing research into the college applicant community and teenager culture
real
tell ur aos to Accept me pls!!
i wish bro anthropology sounds fun
your likely should be in the mail ❤️
this is what it looks like in the unofficial form
okay let's be real here
james g nondorf did not personally review your application
right?
OHH BC UR AN ATHELET??
Indeed I am an athlete
oh that makes sense
i wish i was an athlete 💔💔 i play competitive uno though...
Thanks. Its why I submitted so early
congrats ramen!!
at least we know someone got in LOL
if i get in i'll buy you a pair of cat ears
do you want cat ears or smth else
are you sure ramen 
boring
i like living on the funny side
i'll buy you lunch or smth instead
its okay you can just buy yourself cat ears so I can spot you
taking you out to dinner and bringing you a pair of cat ears
☠️
oh your messages just loaded
one of my irls is buying me cat ears
like they owe me a pair of cat ears rn
waiting for them to actually buy them
I hope nobody owes me a pair of cat ears
I'm okay with debt cancellation in that scenario
but i'll wear cat ears on the first day so you can spot me
deal
i'll wear my bell collar too (slash jay)
i keep flip-flopping between thinking i'll get in and thinking i'll get rejected
you got it ❤️ ‼️
This is so true
lets roll a dice
this is hell i wish they'd just release decisions already 💀
1-6 is you get in
aewfndsaf thank you
💀
as your uchicago ao i can reassure you that mid-december is in fact january 1
the hero we needed
i asked my friend from chicago (specifically the suburbs) to write an answer to a uchicago prompt. this is what he gave me
what would you guys rate this essay out of 10
😶
very quirky just uchi
wish it was me rn
we are in the gutter compared to all those rea kids
uchicago tryna be quirky til the end
big uchi energy
I hate everyone who calls UChicago uchi
Any update yet?😭
it’s like calling Berkeley ucb
"as part of our subversion of societal expectations we are happy to announce april 1 is now mid-december. good luck with your RD applications you fucking nerd"
i call berkeley ucb and you cannot stop me
I hate you
honestly i think it's just bc uchicago is taking slower than usual to process apps
:(((
UChicago will either be UChicago or the university of Chicago
University of Illinois Chicago
Hopefully tomorrow they announce it
in my essay i called it uchicago
i say uchicago in most contexts but uchi as shorthand if i'm lazy
UChicago is fine
fax
im still holding onto the sliver of hope that they will announce td
its only 1:50 chicago time after all
I’m just assuming they won’t idk LOL
Maybe because they haven’t posted on ig today means they’ll announce…
Speculating fr
They posted on their main page but not the admissions page
we've gone from portal speculation to instagram speculation
this is like if astrology became actually quirky and applied to a university
do you even have insta
ur like a social media boomer
no
L
how is that an L
SOMOEN PLEASE PING ME WHEN YALL FIDN OUT ABOUT CHICAGO DECISION DATE
cool
they are gonna surprise release at this rate
I'll ping yoi
Please doooo
DEADASS THO
IM SCARED OF THAT
imma murder u
guys i’ve lost hope for uchicago atp
YEAT - Monëy So Big (OFFICIAL AUDIO)
Decisions out soon just hold out till then
Soon™️
I lost hope for UChicago regardless of decision date
think I need to start simping Cornell or umass
I am now just listening to 679 over and over
⁉️
that would mean tufts is more selective
UChicago is deifnitely harder to get into than tufts
I'd still try to for tufts if I were you
regardless of chicago decision(unless its an acceptance 😍 )
Me with penn
Except they gave us a date
Wtf is wrong with Chicago
Real
Penn simps out
They could just tell us and do it the very next day
Only true UChicago lovers can slander UChicago
uchicago is also rlly selective
oo gotcha
These mfs
That shit gave me a heart attack too
I was like come on bruh
Type shit
exactly exactly
fr 
at this rate uchicago is gonna release its decisions after rd apps are due lmao
I think we all are too good guys and they haven't decided yet 
its gonna release decisions date after decisions are out
currently i’ve gotten an email from:
- swarthmore
- upenn
- dartmouth
- loyola marymount
- cornell
- pomona
- claremont mckenna
in the span of 3 hrs
care to point out which very important school is missing from that list?
i finally understand those romance books where the girl is getting dms and attention from all the guys except the one she likes 🤭🤭
I was about to post this
Mood
re
they are tryinhg to be quirky so basd
Dude I been singing yeat in my head all day
uchicago nerves have officially made me lose any interest in the person i had feelings for 😭 haven’t even thought of them for the past 5 days until rn
every time i see u you’re talking ab yeat LMAOO
or do they not use yuour Q1 grades at all
I hate his music bro
Yeah i think they don’t see your first semester grades
I just like one of his songs
idk tho
thanking god gpa is only considered for uchicago
Money so big 🔥
thoughts on car seat headrest
bro i did ea for uchicago bc i just know my fall semester grades tanked
My fall semester grades went aight tbh
I got shit on in the humanities classes but did fine in the stems
my stem ap scores are atrocious
my mental health is literally just gone at this point i need to see a therapist or smth 💀
my fall sem grades are okay
literally
whachu know about that 87 in lit and 84 in Ap art history 😭
kinda ass in a lot of places
you esp tho w the amount of furry content i’ve seen
its ok it will all be cured when you are in uchicago
idk if i got a B or A in my math class so that’s making me freak out a bit rn
syffering from 20 hours of homwowkr per day
that does not contribute to my mental illness
Its okay tho I'll balance it out with my 92 in MV and 91 in data structures 🔥
you wont have time to worry about mental health
it’s a symptom for sure tho
no actually i was a furry before my mental health started tanking
how do colleges treat stuff on different transcripts
Cus I have a highschool transcript with all the classes im taking there + a UNC transcript
it's not a coping thing it's just who i am
i knly know abput my safety but my safety only looked at my hs transcript
and requested my college transcript after i was already in
I was gonna say I have liek 3 different transcripts already so this aint good
you think uchicago is going to post the date tmr or no
its still 4:27 chicago time
knowing their procrastinating asses
ther eis hope 🥹
no
UChicago is a myth
i’m just gonna fuck around and find out honestly
mid december is gonna turn into january at this rate 💀
they never specified which year mid december
i love you uc hicago but stop teasing me like this
💀
they’ll post it when they post it i cba 
LOL
its whatever atp
frl
getting rejected/deferred is gonna be like getting a vaccine shot
im bouta just turn on yeat(money so big) and then go and chill for 72-108 hours
it hurts once
i already experienced rejection from.college last year so i'm gucci
why would you apply when ur a junior
i have my expectations managed
sophomore
early college program, tamd
flexing
oml
tams*
thats crazy but like. They say, "Yeat,
You keep on evolving, how you so steady with it?" (Whoa)
yall be overachieving ngl
they rejected me because i disclosed a federal investigation about me even though no arrests were made and i wasn't gonna be prosecuted
bruh the lyrics are so trash to this song
i'm doing early grad but only bc i'd kms if i did another year of hs
idk why I like it so much
and also because i have the credits to do it without taking extra courses
maybe I am better off looping 679
so for all intents and purposes i am a senior
just doing 3 years instead of 4
I'm like yeah shes fine, wonder when she'll be mine
needed to pad my gpa
i was being honest 💀
most organized UChicago discussion
LMFAO
I'm summoned
paracatboy the most likely here to get arrested
no + L
do not disclose fbi investigations to early college programs
nah i'm not that dumb
you tell me as if that is applicable to me
