UChicago (2022-2023)

[daring steeple]

that would be crazy

i highly doubt it

[vocal eagle]

that makes me feel better

[frigid galleon]

if you're deferred you can either rd or opt into ed2

[alpine sun]

ed2 pool goes crazy probs

[frigid galleon]

but why would you want uchicago to break your heart twice

[alpine sun]

sr grades probably my best year yet 💀

[frigid galleon]

my senior year is going terribly

💯

[alpine sun]

did most people here apply econ?

[frigid galleon]

no i'm cs

[alpine sun]

nice

[charred rivet]

So does anyone know how to withdraw your application once you get deferred from a specific college

[daring steeple]

I applied for Geophysical sciences

[frigid galleon]

if you can't find a button on the portal just email the admissions office

include your name and application id

that will work for literally every college

that's how i withdrew from UNT

WHY IS THERE AN r/uchicagogonewild

[daring steeple]

[vocal eagle]

im gonna post on there

[daring steeple]

omg-

[frigid galleon]

dear mods this pic is sfw

[daring steeple]

tbh, in a way, i'm glad i found online forums like this

would've been stressing half to death by myself because i'm the only one who applied to uchicago at my school iirc

[celest path]

uchicago has sent me so much stuff

in the mail

i cannot

im sick of it

[warped river]

i did 😭

wait idk if i applied econ or math

but either one is a death sentence ngl

[warped river]

same LMAO

[warped river]

no literally and for what? for me to be rejected??

[celest path]

fr

[daring steeple]

Bruh idk why

Like look here you sending me 10 postcards, 3 magazines and some other stuff

Is not gonna make me apply

Stop killing the trees bestie

[celest path]

LMAO

[frigid galleon]

I'm kidding I don't wanna die THAT badly holy shit

[radiant hawk]

you wont die instantly

it will just be a slow death with cancer

[alpine sun]

Its worse

[onyx sedge]

Slow deaths are almost always worse

[versed salmon]

When uchi

[frigid galleon]

decision date is going to be announced tmrw or the day after

[versed salmon]

Hmm okok then

[frigid galleon]

according to @teal mauve that means the decision is prob on dec 21 or dec 22

but i'm hoping for a dec 16 or dec 19 release

[versed salmon]

ain't this funny

[radiant hawk]

fancy phone

[versed salmon]

Not even $500

It was like $4XX

[radiant hawk]

hewwo yas uchichi when dewiwions out

[radiant hawk]

u-UChicago San

I somehow ticked test optional

[versed salmon]

How

ain't no way

[radiant hawk]

So I belatedly sent my AO an email

[alpine sun]

50% of apps are test optional now i heard

[radiant hawk]

said to still submit it tho might be late

💀

[alpine sun]

I'm praying chicago didnt request q1 grades

[alpine sun]

💀

[radiant hawk]

I forgot to review that part

💀💀💀

[alpine sun]

If it makes you feel better

[versed salmon]

this is me but with the Honors section of my app 😂

[alpine sun]

i added a space between every paragraph

in my commonapp

[versed salmon]

Also bro idfk what my school is sending as transcripts

[alpine sun]

but they auto do that

[radiant hawk]

I forgot to add an entire EC

[versed salmon]

I hope they're smart enough to send the right shit

[alpine sun]

so my commonapp was 2 pages long

of double spaces

[radiant hawk]

my uchi app was a dumpster fire

[versed salmon]

Prob aren't and it's gonna screw me tho

[versed salmon]

Oof

[radiant hawk]

kekw

[versed salmon]

my uchi app was omega fire

I think

again who would write about Suharto being born in Papua???

[alpine sun]

hindsight is 20/20

[versed salmon]

nobody that's who

[alpine sun]

isnt that the

indonesean dictator?

[versed salmon]

ye

But I made him a good guy

[alpine sun]

💀

[versed salmon]

What

And like

I did the damn research

actual historical entities that had no connection to him I connected

[alpine sun]

[alpine sun]

[gentle maple]

[versed salmon]

Oh

[alpine sun]

[versed salmon]

Oh it's that specific dang

[radiant hawk]

[alpine sun]

yeah its a small hobby

[versed salmon]

Ngl with keyboards I just picked up a Keychron K4V2

[versed salmon]

tru

Fun one tho

[alpine sun]

for sure

[alpine sun]

yeah not unlikely

[gentle maple]

You really think? Lmao

[alpine sun]

probably the largest hyper-active forum

and access to a lot of data given linked accounts for students

ao's might just be here to gauge sentiments though

[gentle maple]

I love you AOs

Chicago best vibe 🙃

[alpine sun]

ong

[gentle maple]

Absolutely love the gargoyles and the whole vibe

[radiant hawk]

I love chicago

[gentle maple]

@radiant hawk killed the vibe here smh

[radiant hawk]

smh

[frigid galleon]

[frigid galleon]

same 🙏

[radiant hawk]

not getting in anyways 😔

[proven hawk]

U mean uchicago actually sent that? 😱

[proven hawk]

Ahhh ok ok....I was about to get a heart attack

[frigid galleon]

bruh why would they send a letter like that 💀

[proven hawk]

Ik....but they said yes....so I thought maybe? Lol

[frigid galleon]

i stole it off top of all time on a2c (the sub)

guys does this mean i was accepted??

[radiant hawk]

no it means you got denied

[frigid galleon]

oh.

[bleak hornet]

What are y’all interested in studying? Hopeful philosophy/history major here

[frigid galleon]

rizz studies

[radiant hawk]

I want headpats

[frigid galleon]

computer science

[frigid galleon]

I want them more

[bleak hornet]

Gimme

[radiant hawk]

no they are mine

[frigid galleon]

wtf is this? a a2c/uchicago group headpat session???

[frigid galleon]

mine first you literally threatened to muzzle me

[broken mason]

A2F

applying to fard

[frigid galleon]

a2c

applying to cock

[proven hawk]

There there

[radiant hawk]

thank you

[frigid galleon]

bruh my message got ROTLed 💀

[radiant hawk]

what’s rotl

[frigid galleon]

https://crypto.stackexchange.com/questions/25238/how-does-rotl-work

[proven hawk]

Here u go too...there there

[frigid galleon]

bork

[wise dawn]

why do people say that UChicago is where fun goes to die?

[radiant hawk]

rotate left

[frigid galleon]

ROTL is a bitwise operation where you rotate left but like

[radiant hawk]

jealous people

[frigid galleon]

the bits that get cut off come back at the start

[radiant hawk]

it’s where fun goes to live

[proven hawk]

What is this? I didn't even understand the meaning

[frigid galleon]

rigor

[wise dawn]

is it that rigorous?

[radiant hawk]

rumor spread by cornellians

[frigid galleon]

so rotl is like this

[radiant hawk]

any t20 is rigorous

[frigid galleon]

imagine you had an 8 bit number 11101010

and you wanted to ROTL by 2 bits

it would be 10101011

so it shifts left but it also comes back around

[proven hawk]

Ouhh...gotcha....shift positions but all shft at the same time

[frigid galleon]

yea yea

it's a common operation in cryptography

the joke was my message came out as
ing to cockapply

[radiant hawk]

fancy

[proven hawk]

Lol ok ok

[vernal junco]

tf

[frigid galleon]

hi apocalypsegamer1

[frigid galleon]

to be fair ramen called this place a2f before my message

(applying to fard)

[vernal junco]

huh

[frigid galleon]

.

[broken mason]

I know ROTL from bit string flicking in acsl 🤣

the operation is called circ there tho 🤣

[violet sable]

guys do we have a date yet??

[broken mason]

nope 🗿

[violet sable]

L

[frigid galleon]

i know rotl and rotr from cryptography

i love cryptography 🤪 🤪 kill me

it's fun except when your code breaks and you can't figure out why

[lilac bridge]

ooo nice!! i want to do econs with maybe a history or philo minor

[radiant hawk]

math and cs gotta be coolest

[lilac bridge]

the big problems course they have for upperclassmen seems really interesting too

[frigid galleon]

i wanna minor in ealc

[radiant hawk]

spanish minor

[frigid galleon]

and maybe linguistics

i wanna take uc hicago's ethics in cs classes

CMSC 25910 🤪

CMSC 28400 😳

cryptography is my fav area of study

[alpine sun]

Money

[radiant hawk]

mathematics sounds so fun

speak in equations

[broken mason]

fellow money major

[lilac bridge]

question

if you get deferred from EA you can switch your app to ED2 right?

would ED2 have higher odds

[alpine sun]

Yes

[radiant hawk]

yea

[broken mason]

is the app portal down for just me

😔

[daring steeple]

Guys, this anxiety is killing me

[broken mason]

someone chekc the app portal cus mine broke 😭

[radiant hawk]

👀

[daring steeple]

Just checked, no update

[radiant hawk]

no update

[frigid galleon]

that is correct

if you're deferred it's RD by default but you can change your decision round to ED2

[broken mason]

Update: there is nothing

Wait that’s actually cap

Idk where their source is for this

But the UChicago class of 2027 page has this story up

[daring steeple]

Yeah, I saw that. It seemed unfactual

[broken mason]

So this very well could be bullshit but idk

2 days and 9 hours that’s what

the 16th at 9PM?

No way

[frigid galleon]

yeah i'm calling bs

there's no way

given all these delays i seriously doubt it

[radiant hawk]

16th makes sense if they make decisions date announcement today

potentially

[frigid galleon]

yeah potentially

[broken mason]

I just dm’d the account asking for the sauce

[frigid galleon]

but i don't think these instagram people have the date

[broken mason]

But imma keep manifesting

Friday Friday Friday Friday

[radiant hawk]

FRIDAY. FRIDAY

VIERNES VIERNES VIERNES

[frigid galleon]

vendredi

i forgor french 💀

[radiant hawk]

spanish > french

bro u live in tx

[daring steeple]

I'm going to message the class of 27 account and ask how they know

[radiant hawk]

they have insider info

[broken mason]

.

[radiant hawk]

🥸

[frigid galleon]

yeah and i picked frnech in middle scohol

i got silver in le grand concours 2 in 8th grade

placed 3rd in a local competition

[radiant hawk]

no idea what that is

[frigid galleon]

worth it

[frigid galleon]

le grand concours is the natoinal french competition

silver is like top 15% in the country

[lilac bridge]

it's 11:05am can they announce the date

[frigid galleon]

HONESTLY

[radiant hawk]

lol

[broken mason]

actually- its 12:06 in eastern time 🤓

[radiant hawk]

ramen you are getting it anyways

💀

[frigid galleon]

uh actually it's 11:06 now

[frigid galleon]

ramen's gonna get a full ride or something man

[broken mason]

tf

i'd be happy with admission + any aid

[radiant hawk]

for real

[frigid galleon]

i believe in you ramen

[radiant hawk]

bros gonna get like a full ride

[broken mason]

I wish lol

[frigid galleon]

i'd be happy getting in but i wouldn't attend unless i got full aid or close

i can't afford college

uchicago's npc gave me $30 so there's still hope

[radiant hawk]

wouldn’t you get full aid below 60k income

[frigid galleon]

yes

[radiant hawk]

so you would

[broken mason]

unfortunately my familys income is not below 60k

not even close

[radiant hawk]

“unfortunately”

[frigid galleon]

i can't afford $30 though 😭😭

[radiant hawk]

i would rather be above 60k

[broken mason]

fortunately and unfortunately

[frigid galleon]

it's not fun having a family income that low

[radiant hawk]

being poor is not so fun

[broken mason]

yes I apologize for my previous comment

but in the aspect of getting aid, unfortunately I do not qualify for full aid

[buoyant nova]

It is when you live in a poor country
You can do anything with 50000$ salary in Armenia
We are considered rich
But I can potentially get a full-ride

[broken mason]

Iirc international aid is iffy

[frigid galleon]

you're not poor by armenian standards though

that's the thing

yeah 50k is good or even great in a lot of 3rd world countries

but it's not enough for a family to live on in the US

[broken mason]

this is not true

it might not be enough to live comfotably

[frigid galleon]

unless you're in a rural area or somewhere affordable

[broken mason]

I have a lot of friends with a single income provider around 50k providing for 2-4 kids

[stone cosmos]

any update

[frigid galleon]

sure you can live

but it's not gonna be fun

that's my point

[broken mason]

it's also not terrible

[buoyant nova]

Negative

[frigid galleon]

you're still broke as fuck

[broken mason]

they play video games with me, they get thier own jobs, and they still have spenidng money

[frigid galleon]

as someone with a family income of 20k last year

[stone cosmos]

what is rhis rhen

[frigid galleon]

it's not terrible but it certainly isn't fun

[stone cosmos]

?

[broken mason]

20k is a little bit different but we said 50k

[frigid galleon]

my family size is also half that of the people you talk about

i'm an only child

you're talking about people with 2-4 kids

my point being

[broken mason]

thats fair. but the point stands that you can live fine on 50k.

[frigid galleon]

yeah having a low income is livable

but it's not a comfortable life

or a fun life

or particularly enjoyable in that aspect

[broken mason]

🤷‍♂️ it doesn't have to be that way in my opinion

[frigid galleon]

not being sure whether you'll be homeless the next month or not isn't quite a fun feeling imo

[mild rose]

did u appLy for qb?

[broken mason]

Idk where you live but where I live, 50k a year isn't at th elevel where you debate homelessness

[frigid galleon]

20k is

[frigid galleon]

no

[broken mason]

again. I'm talking about 50k

[frigid galleon]

i live in the DFW area too; rent where i am is like 2.5k/mo

that's 30k/yr

[broken mason]

2.5/month is pretty darn high

[frigid galleon]

yeah

living here isn't cheap

[broken mason]

its not nearly that high where im at

[frigid galleon]

exactly

now do you see my point

i'm speaking from the perspective of where i live

[broken mason]

well yeah

but you should also see my point then

[frigid galleon]

here 50k/yr isn't livable

yeah i see your point

but again i think this ties back into what i said earlier

[mild rose]

how do u live with 20k then

[broken mason]

It depends on location a lot of course

[frigid galleon]

it's about how poor you are in relation to where yo ulive

[broken mason]

surviving 50k a year in cali is gonna suck

or in a metropolis

[frigid galleon]

at this point i think my dad is just taking loans from friends

[frigid galleon]

which is what i was saying earlier

[warped river]

any date yet?

[mild rose]

mid December

[frigid galleon]

what matters is how poor you are in relation to where you live not just how much money you have

[warped river]

no shit 💀

[mild rose]

🙂

[broken mason]

right. I don't disagree with that. But i'm just saying if you move to a different part of the US, you can live off of 50k very easily(albeit not very comfortably)

[frigid galleon]

yeah

touche

i'll be more specific

[frigid galleon]

it's not enough for a family to live on where i live

[broken mason]

Thats fair

have you guys considered moving j wondering

[frigid galleon]

my dad wants to move to fl

i want to stay put

[broken mason]

cus I thought texas was supposed to be cheap

at least thats what all the memes tell me

[frigid galleon]

it used to be

but then all the people started fucking moving in

california refugees etc

real estate prices soared

[broken mason]

damn

[frigid galleon]

it used to be cheap here

it isn't anymore

[vocal eagle]

Texas is only cheap in like the super rural parts

[frigid galleon]

^

house prices rn are like

350-400k

[vocal eagle]

Even 30 minutes outside of big cities houses are expensive

[frigid galleon]

for a 2 or 3 bedroom house in a suburban area of dfw

[broken mason]

You can get rent for a family of 4 for around 1.5k where i'm at

[frigid galleon]

i could be wrong do not quote me on that

[frigid galleon]

i pay 2.5k for a 2 bed 2 bath apartment

[vocal eagle]

Granted, still way cheaper than cities outside of LA and NY but not so doable as a middle class person

[frigid galleon]

but houses used to be cheaper

until people started moving here and buying in cash

[vocal eagle]

My parents rent jumped from 1200 where we were renting to like 2k for a 3b and that’s still considered really cheap

[frigid galleon]

now it's nearing totally unaffordable for most middle class people

[frigid galleon]

yeah 2k for a 3b is hella cheap

i pay more for 2b

[broken mason]

wow

yeah I guess metropolis just raises cost of living

[frigid galleon]

they california'd my texas 😭

[broken mason]

you can rent in an actual nice area/neighborhood for 3bd 1.5k a month where i live

[frigid galleon]

i live like 30 minutes away from downtown dallas

i'm not in a particularly urban area

i'm in the suburbs

[broken mason]

interesting

[daring steeple]

I thought suburbs were like Mckinney/Frisco

[frigid galleon]

carrollton isn't particularly urban except in some parts

it's mostly suburban

[daring steeple]

Oh, yeah you're right

[vocal eagle]

Not to be a typical Texan but dude California people are ruining Austin

[dusk holly]

so is 16th the announcement date

or the actual date

[frigid galleon]

when it comes to californians i am a typical texan

like my stance on californians will never change

[daring steeple]

No but actually Cali people ruined the housing market here

[frigid galleon]

people are speculating it's the actual date

[frigid galleon]

yeah FUCK californians

no offense californians

[broken mason]

for once im feeling lucky to live in the boring state of NC

[frigid galleon]

the housing market is so absolutely fucked

[vocal eagle]

They’re moving every big business to Austin and it is destroying the livability for people who grew up there their entire lives and it’s taking out the “weirdness” of the city

So many local restaurants are having to close

[daring steeple]

Like every one of them moved here during 2019 and especially after covid when school districts here were opening

[vocal eagle]

Tesla moved to Austin and it’s fucking ridiculous

[frigid galleon]

austin isn't staying weird?

[broken mason]

they tryna capitalize off those UT austin grads

[frigid galleon]

i'm telling you man

texas is slowly being ruined by californians

and corporations

[daring steeple]

I've gotten into Ut-Austin and it's not even a bad school but I hate texas

[vocal eagle]

I also hate Texas but now that I moved out of it I miss it a lot lol

[frigid galleon]

i love this state but the influx of people from cali and the fucking of the real estate market is making it nearly intolerable

[vocal eagle]

Everything is big in Texas is such a true statement

[frigid galleon]

the only thing i can really complain about other than californians is the government

[radiant hawk]

don’t even make 50k

[daring steeple]

Valid

[broken mason]

it kinda sucks that I can actually feel inflation now and its not one of those problems people talk about but you never see

[vocal eagle]

I miss how nice southerners are just in general

[frigid galleon]

southern hospitality is real

people are a lot colder up north

[broken mason]

I got a chipotle burrito bowl with 2x chicken and guacamole and it was 14.50

what the hell

[vocal eagle]

you wouldn’t believe how many people don’t say thank you when you hold the door open for them or just like, being in public people don’t say random things to me like they do in Texas

I used to get complimented on random shit from like old white ladies all the time

[frigid galleon]

texans are so nice

like i've never had a bad experience with someone in texas

[vocal eagle]

My partner visited texas with me for the first time and he lovessss it as a hardcore northerner

[frigid galleon]

despite all the weird political bullshit i've never experienced homophobia once and i've always felt welcome

[broken mason]

It’s out

[frigid galleon]

ARE YOU FR

dec 21

what the fuck

well

[vocal eagle]

@lilac bridge

[frigid galleon]

@teal mauve you were right

That’s so late ))):

Ughhhh

[frigid galleon]

late december is the new mid-december

these decisions better go crazy

[broken mason]

Bruh

[frigid galleon]

my rejection letter should be fucking gold plated

and served with caviar

[vocal eagle]

I don’t wanna wait a week

[broken mason]

So I don’t get decisions till a week from now

What the heck

[vocal eagle]

@onyx sedge

[broken mason]

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[frigid galleon]

yeah carly predicted it

like no shot

carly was fucking dead on

[vocal eagle]

Fml

[broken mason]

It’s not even covid year

[frigid galleon]

what is uchicago doing with the 7 days???

[broken mason]

Why they so l8 this year

[frigid galleon]

influx of applicants?

disruptions bc of covid?

[stone cosmos]

get working on those RDs

[frigid galleon]

idk

[dusk holly]

@teal mauve lmao I think u were right

[stone cosmos]

waiting for ppl to withdraw apps

after

[frigid galleon]

lmaoooooo

[stone cosmos]

others get announced

nah cuz the ED ones

from other schools

is gonna cuase ppl to withdraw

[vocal eagle]

Omg you’re so right

[frigid galleon]

true but that's such a braindead move

like why not put it on monday if that were the case

[vocal eagle]

Wow I never even thought about that that’s genius

Maybe that’ll make more space for some borderline applicants

[stone cosmos]

yes

[frigid galleon]

oh shit

that's true

[stone cosmos]

its a good thing

[frigid galleon]

maybe they want more time to reconsider

[stone cosmos]

we jus gotta stay patient

well yea

cuz like EX

already has a higher rate

[frigid galleon]

yeah but EA applicants withdrawing makes more space for ED kids

[daring steeple]

..they are so annoying. I don't want to open it on a random Wednesday in my house during break

[frigid galleon]

i'm gonna be recording a decision reaction video man

don't wanna record my face though

gotta pull out the fucking vtuber model

[vocal eagle]

I work that day NOOOOO

maybe I should switch shifts…

[frigid galleon]

you should

[buoyant nova]

No time for RD applications

[frigid galleon]

but like

earlier

[daring steeple]

The sad thing about my decision video is I had a perfect idea if it came out this Friday, but now they ruined it. I would've been TikTok famous.

[frigid galleon]

uchicago crushing our dreams

and our RD applications goddamn

releasing like 10 days before rd deadlines??

[buoyant nova]

Fun died
And we are not there yet

[daring steeple]

Why can't they do it earlier so I know to do RDs

[frigid galleon]

fun is dying 💀

[frigid galleon]

yeah like i need time for my RD and ED2 app if i'm rejected

i can't wait a week for my decision

[daring steeple]

I don't want to fill out other applications for no reason

[broken mason]

bruhhh

[frigid galleon]

exactly

[broken mason]

[vocal eagle]

I guess I actually have to do my rd apps now bruh

[daring steeple]

I'm getting my wisdom teeth out this Friday and I really wanted to film my decision video immediately after surgery, so if I didn't get in I could cry from the physical and emotional pain at once. An efficient cry, if you will

Also what time is late afternoon???

Why can't they be specific

[frigid galleon]

at this point i would prefer a release on sunday at 3 am

[vocal eagle]

Have they updated anyone’s portal yet I want to know what they’re gonna write about the decision date

[frigid galleon]

no change

it just says

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.

uncommon blog hasn't been updated either

WHAT DOES MID-DECEMBER MEAN???

dec 21 is NOT mid-december

don't make promises you can't keep 💀

i still love their bum ass school though even if they can't release a decision on time

but this is an abusive romance 💔

[buoyant nova]

Tell us afterwards
What did he advise

[frigid galleon]

lol uchicago is being priv qrt'd on twitter

[vocal eagle]

If I get rejected I’ll send an email about “mid-December” to the admissions office

[frigid galleon]

same

[daring steeple]

What do you mean?

[frigid galleon]

'

[vocal eagle]

Tomorrows gonna be a bloodbath with all those decisions holy crap

[frigid galleon]

meanwhile we're just gonna be here chilling waiting for 6 days like

https://tenor.com/bNBIH.gif

[buoyant nova]

It was one of the essay titles
What would a wisdom teeth advise?

[frigid galleon]

if i get deferred i stg

i'm gonna lose it

[vocal eagle]

Are we all gonna share our decisions in here regardless of what happens

[frigid galleon]

yep

if i get rejected y'all will KNOW

if i get accepted you will also know

[vocal eagle]

If I get rejected I’m going to be really embarassed so don’t make fun of me </3

[frigid galleon]

i'll buy a celebratory pair of cat ears or smth

wait

bad timing

i was talking about if i got accepted

💀

[vocal eagle]

LMAO

[daring steeple]

Ah, yeah. I’ll keep you updated haha

[frigid galleon]

if you get rejected i'll buy you a milkshake or smth

[daring steeple]

I feel this

[vocal eagle]

I’m almost positively moving to Chicago next year so if I have to go to another school besides uchicago or northwestern I’ll be pretty sad

[daring steeple]

The annoying thing is I spent so much time watching acceptance videos that I KNOW if I don’t see the bubbles, I didn’t get in

[vocal eagle]

Yuppp

[frigid galleon]

yeah i know from the rejection simulator 💔

[daring steeple]

So really my biggest anxiety isn’t even about reading the letter, it’s about clicking

[daring steeple]

The what?

[frigid galleon]

ivywise hsa a rejection simulator

you can simulate getting rejected to uchicago

[vocal eagle]

I almost wish they didn’t do the bubbles I’d rather have to read it than know instantly I didn’t get in

[frigid galleon]

but it also includes a pic of an acceptance

[lilac bridge]

if i open it and see "unfortunately...." that's how i know

"we are sorry but..."

if it doesn't start w "congratulations" then 😭

[frigid galleon]

Dear natalie,

We regret to inform you that unfortunately, we were able to offer you a spot in the class of 2027. Please confirm your enrollment within the next month.

Thank you,
Dean Nondorf

[vocal eagle]

This is making my stomach turn

I’m gonna spend my week Christmas shopping to take my mind off of it all

[lilac bridge]

[daring steeple]

I just wish we never got false hope it would be mid December

[radiant hawk]

[frigid galleon]

[vocal eagle]

That’s too close to Christmas I’m gonna puke

[frigid galleon]

why is it that every christmas something bad happens to me

my (then) bf blocked me last christmas for no reason

[broken mason]

3AM on Sunday would be awesome

[frigid galleon]

this christmas i'm gonna be rejected or deferred from uchicago 💀

[frigid galleon]

agreed

[broken mason]

It would give me an actual valid reason to stay up till 3AM

• I’d be up anyway because my circadian rhythm is doomed already

I sleep no earlier than 2am and have been like this for many months now

[gentle maple]

I’m convinced

That it will be announcement Thursday and decisions Monday

[frigid galleon]

apush drove these dudes insane 💀

[onyx sedge]

Me as well. I would've expected an email and Uncommon Blog post

[frigid galleon]

yeah i expected that too

maybe they'll release it later?

[onyx sedge]

Hopefully

[radiant hawk]

never been this depressed

[frigid galleon]

deleted the apush kahoot name list. it is gone forever

[radiant hawk]

7 days more of cascading into insanity

[frigid galleon]

[frigid galleon]

you should pray they make it earlier 🙏

[frigid galleon]

[buoyant nova]

This thread never gonna die

[frigid galleon]

haiiii arenmkhitaryan

:3

[buoyant nova]

Hi😼

[frigid galleon]

[buoyant nova]

Happy and exhausted
I don't want to get rejected
They've just delayed it

Wbu

[radiant hawk]

[safe wagon]

You can do this

🤞🤞

[buoyant nova]

France scored😪
World cup

[safe wagon]

College decisions make my ocd flare up my brain keeps telling me I’ll get rejected if I don’t turn on the light switch 3 times 😭

[onyx sedge]

Love you too para

[frigid galleon]

bark

[frigid galleon]

i'm okay

but yeah i relate with exhausted

[buoyant nova]

In a year time we won't even remember about this period 😼😪

We'll be scattered between the best colleges

[frigid galleon]

some of us won't be in the best colleges :^)

[buoyant nova]

In any case college doesn't even matter

It depends on us
Top collegea are good only for networking

[frigid galleon]

i just realized i've said bark 25 times

woof 9

meow 22

[buoyant nova]

😭😭😭

[radiant hawk]

umass Amherst has the best food in college

[radiant hawk]

UChicago food nothing on umass Amherst

[frigid galleon]

utd's furry community is nice i'd fit in there soooooo

i'll be chilling at my safety if uchicago and the other T20s don't want me

[radiant hawk]

💀

bros really going to college for furry community

[radiant hawk]

taking this sticker off my calculator when they reject me fr

[daring steeple]

Bro what is that??

That looks like furry pheonix

[celest path]

Mascot

[gentle maple]

Cause it is LMOA

[radiant hawk]

I think it’s hella cute

[junior burrow]

The decision date being next week is very beneficial for EA applicants. It gives kids who got in ED elsewhere more time to withdraw their EA application, thus making the application pool smaller and less competitive.

[radiant hawk]

why are you such a critical thinker

my desperation blinded me from such train of thought

[gentle maple]

TRUE

OH MY GOD

THATS ACTUAKLY WOW

not good for ED applicants tho

Smh

[buoyant nova]

Oh really wow

[buoyant nova]

They can start working on RD still(even if it's not needed)
Before Christmas

[gentle maple]

He’s but

Yes

No motivation to actually do it

[daring steeple]

I mean it really doesn’t make a difference if you did EA or ED at that point. Those other kids withdrawing their EAs to UChic moves everyone up, regardless of decision plan.

[gentle maple]

I’m so mad

I need motivation

[vernal junco]

wait it's the 21st?

damn

they're holding out on us lmao

[gentle maple]

Yes

They are

[frigid galleon]

how are we doing today?

[lilac bridge]

not good at all

FUCK im so nervous

[radiant hawk]

[daring steeple]

I’m sad because Morocco is losing right now

[radiant hawk]

[daring steeple]

Are you French?

[frigid galleon]

[frigid galleon]

French "people"

[daring steeple]

[radiant hawk]

these emojis are too cute

[frigid galleon]

i do not support french rights

[radiant hawk]

think im losing my mind

[frigid galleon]

[frigid galleon]

[radiant hawk]

the French will do the Moroccans the way they did in 732

[radiant hawk]

😭

[daring steeple]

Booo France

[frigid galleon]

[radiant hawk]

[frigid galleon]

[radiant hawk]

[frigid galleon]

i cope by asking people for headpats

[radiant hawk]

I want headpats

[frigid galleon]

i want headpats too

i want cuddles and headpats from a guy so bad

[radiant hawk]

I think I’m going insane

[frigid galleon]

it's ok me too

we can give each other headpats on the quad

[radiant hawk]

need to get accepted

[frigid galleon]

same

[onyx sedge]

I have 2 stickers on my water bottle (the only two), so I'm gonna have to take them both off after the 21st

[onyx sedge]

Sure, but I'm ED and need to know if I have to apply somewhere else ...

[broken mason]

I just encountered 8274828647273 bad drivers and I’m pissed asl rn

[onyx sedge]

I don't care much if the EA pool changes like 5 people's acceptances.

Me and the rest of the ED applicants need to know so we can plan for RD, if we have to

[broken mason]

Atp I think all people just want it to be out by now

[lilac bridge]

god me too

[lilac bridge]

pls thank you

im expecting a rejection cus 😭

[buoyant nova]

😿😿😿
Pain

i'm going there to learn and be an academic obviously

but like

the furry community is def a plus

[daring steeple]

I can't tell if you're joking or not and it's very amusing

[frigid galleon]

i am irony poisoned
