🤲

[frosty rune]

i'm currently manifesting umass by eating good food

[rigid salmon]

hmm yea

but yk what

i had a theory

[rigid salmon]

^^

thoughts?

[frosty rune]

AOs are currently processing application for the UMass dining menu

[fallen remnant]

i will stay only in this thread

and purdues

because these two threads and these two schools were the only ones who saw my effort

and mainly coz

most of my guys are here

[frosty rune]

@fallen remnant You'll always remain a minuteman at heart no matter where you end up

[fallen remnant]

WE ARE THE FUCKING FLAGSHIP. WE ARE THE FUCKING UMASS MINUTEMEN.

[untold haven]

I love umass

[untold haven]

where are@exotic jay and @mossy thunder with the forecast of the chances of a wave today

[exotic jay]

it’s like 0

[mossy thunder]

yeah fuck that shit there’s a 0 percent chance

[cunning bison]

umass better fucking accept me

after yesterday i need some good news

[rose gyro]

dont wanna be a pessimistic but umass majorly rejects in their last wave

[cunning bison]

i’ve heard 💀

[dense remnant]

@cursive compass we might end up going to the same college cool!

that sounds so creepy but I didn’t mean it like that lmao 😭

[cunning bison]

but i’ve seen some people who haven’t heard back yet with insane stats

[dense remnant]

yep everyone at my school with crazy stats hasn’t heard back

the rumor going around is that umass might defer some people to help their yield rate because here in ma everyone applies and not everyone goes

the problem is that UMass is the only financially good option for a lot of people I know

again this doesn’t apply for their goated majors like cs and all

because that is in general getting harder to get into

[cunning bison]

i haven’t heard back yet (oos), my stats aren’t too crazy but should be more than enough for my alternate major

[rose gyro]

i am pretty sure umass admissions esp for cs is luck at the end

[soft sorrel]

like all selective colleges/majors

[rose gyro]

like they just decide to accept 1/4 th of shortlisted applicants

[dense remnant]

UMass is really weird this year I’d just hold put

[rose gyro]

yeah

cuz if u doing holistic admissions, u can only narrow down to a point tbh

[dense remnant]

This is really true. But again as shotgunning continues and people apply when UMass can’t take them all…this is going to keep happening

[rose gyro]

yeah, u just gotta hope u get in some places

[cunning bison]

yeah ik, i got rejected from umd with above average stats for cs so my hope isn’t the best.

however i probably showed more interest in umass considering i plan on double majoring with linguistics so umass is better fit for that

[soft sorrel]

umass linguistics legit is T2 lmao

[dense remnant]

linguistics in UMass is nuts, good luck, it’s a beautiful program

[cunning bison]

ik.

tysm 🤞

[cursive compass]

OMG REALLY

UMD?!?

SLAY

[soft sorrel]

UMass Amherst Linguistics Ranks 2nd Worldwide for Fourth Year in a Row

[cunning bison]

ik

[soft sorrel]

Umass on crack

[cursive compass]

BRO IT'S OP RIGHT

[soft sorrel]

ima do cs+linguistics so I max out Umass' reputation

soon to be on the notable alumni page

[cursive compass]

Hell yeah

[cunning bison]

literally me

[soft sorrel]

slay

[dense remnant]

yeah it’ll be pretty cool

[cursive compass]

Omggg

Very excited

I'll probably end up there

I don't see UCs pulling through for me

[untold haven]

Are u going UMD?

Congrats!

[cursive compass]

Probably :))

[untold haven]

what are ur other options

[cursive compass]

There's still a TON of decisions left

[soft sorrel]

dont act like u didnt get into gatech and uwm lmaoo

[cursive compass]

But like likely I'll go there

[frosty rune]

people who haven't yet heard from umaas are literally gt/uiuc/umich accepts. it would be reprehensible for the final wave to be massive rejects

[cunning bison]

🤞

[untold haven]

was a dream

didn't happen

I love umass

[cursive compass]

Falsxasa

[soft sorrel]

Doctor Who pranked u

[cursive compass]

Literally built different

[frosty rune]

what are these rankings

[cursive compass]

Top linguistics

Schools

[cunning bison]

yeah ling

[frosty rune]

ooh alr

[rose gyro]

i am gtech deferral burh

uiuc reject

purdue accept tho

[frosty rune]

fr why's umass waiting so damn long if they're just going to spam rejects/wl this wave

[frosty rune]

that's massive

[cunning bison]

i’m still waiting to hear back, rejected from gt, deferred from uiuc and umich

[rose gyro]

hate schools which do this shit

[rose gyro]

ig it is especially this year, always though purdue wasnt that hard but looking at rejections this year ig it was

[untold haven]

I love this thread

[frosty rune]

even with these decisions, you should be an easy acceptance for umass

[soft sorrel]

I'm realising im an A2C whore and it scares me

[rose gyro]

lmao prolly got lucked out or smthg, ik i have a pretty good shot but u never know

[frosty rune]

something would be really fucked up if a majority of us get rejected this wave

[soft sorrel]

why? they barely rejected anyone

[rose gyro]

thats whats prolly gonna happen tbh, lookinga t last year

[rose gyro]

exactly

[cunning bison]

um ass amherst

[untold haven]

wdym

[dense remnant]

they’re too obsessed with this server and need to touch grass like me

[untold haven]

I'm also a a2c whore then 💀

[verbal ledge]

hello guys will it drop on this fine weekend day

or do i need to step in and make sure it does

[dense remnant]

No

people don’t think so

[verbal ledge]

https://tenor.com/view/my-source-is-that-i-made-it-up-my-source-is-that-i-made-it-the-fuck-up-loona-pose-kpop-gif-26556702

source?

[dense remnant]

literally no one knows UMass is so random atp

they don’t really give decisions on Saturday

[exotic jay]

the offices are prolly closed

i doubt it’s today or tomorrow

[dense remnant]

yep

probably holding out until monday

[cunning bison]

does anyone here live near amherst

would they mind doing an ocean elevens on the admissions office and taking the decisions

[slate widget]

one of the highest stat kids at my school hasnt heard back yet

instate too

almost none of my schools cs applicants, he is one of them

I wouldnt worry

[distant abyss]

this has gotta be the best thread

[cunning bison]

pretty much everyone from my school (oos) who applied heard back, and i didn’t and i am the highest stat person to apply umass

however i am also the only to apply cs

but i was also the highest stat person to apply maryland i was rejected when many people got in so idk

[rose gyro]

yeah its prolly mon or tue

[soft sorrel]

no, I touch grass on a daily basis, I'm just starting to look at rankings and I hate it

[rigid salmon]

honestly tho

do yall still like umass

idk i've been losing love for them by the day atp

😭

tf the AOs doin bruh

[karmic dagger]

Best food so ofc I do

[rigid salmon]

ik but that's only bc AOs help out in the dining hall kitchens

it all makes sm sense

[karmic dagger]

But I got into umd so I'm much less stressed about umass

[rigid salmon]

no decisions + good food

how else is that possible

[karmic dagger]

Clearly it's the only possibility

[rigid salmon]

yes

[surreal pulsar]

yeah cuz u got gtech

wouldnt care about umass after gtech ngl

[rigid salmon]

no i mean like regardless

they've been delaying it for so long

i used to simp for umass a ton before

💀

[surreal pulsar]

before doesnt matter

whenever somebody gets a letter from harvard they are not even looking in the other direction

[glacial sorrel]

youre right, theyre looking at their wallet

[cursive compass]

LMFAO UMASS

i used to simp so hard

[untold haven]

WE ARE THE FUCKING FLAGSHIP. WE ARE THE FUCKING UMASS MINUTEMEN.

[soft sorrel]

[cursive compass]

[cursive compass]

oh is that linguistics ranking or food ranking

then it makes sense

👍

[untold haven]

...

LOL

4. northeastern

[cursive compass]

LMAO

LOL

[untold haven]

what is your ranking terp simp

[cursive compass]

okay bet

1. UMD
2. UMBC (because you can transfer to UMD and its not even a bad school)
3. Maryland Community Colleges are all tied (because you can transfer to UMD)
4. All other public schools
5. All private schools except Harvard
6. Harvard

there

THERE i fixed it

[soft sorrel]

only true ranking, be a minutemen with me

[untold haven]

ok now it's fine 👍

minutemen 💪

[cursive compass]

okay wait

i fixed my ranking for realsies this time

UMass is #4 in the country

so is gatech

[soft sorrel]

gatech is in gun city tho

[cursive compass]

but its a good school

[untold haven]

tie of like 1000+ schools

[cunning bison]

mississippi?

[untold haven]

is Atlanta bad?

[cursive compass]

LOL

[untold haven]

😭

[soft sorrel]

atlanta

[cursive compass]

only on my ranking is uc merced tied with georgia tech

[soft sorrel]

yea pretty much

[cunning bison]

well mississippi is gun city

atlanta isn’t too bad

[cursive compass]

^

and gatech part of atl

isnt that bad

[untold haven]

I once saw it in one of the best cities to live ranking

😭
😭
😭

[cunning bison]

yeah

[soft sorrel]

With a crime rate of 50 per one thousand residents, Atlanta has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes

[cunning bison]

yeah

but if you stay in the good areas you are fine

like with any major city

[untold haven]

how's gtech area

[dense remnant]

not bad

[cunning bison]

it’s nice imo

[soft sorrel]

you have tons of opportunities tho thats cool

umass has boston tho

[cunning bison]

boston is like 2 hours from umass

[soft sorrel]

they bought mount ida, now its 20m and they have free buses

[untold haven]

Umass 42k vs Gtech 50k vs the random school no one has heard of ( Rose hulman ) 35k (40k schol)

[cunning bison]

well yeah but the vast majority of people will not be at mount ida

[soft sorrel]

if you go to umass you get free french lessons 😔

[cunning bison]

oui oui

[untold haven]

+1000 for umass

[soft sorrel]

you can do internships in the summer and live there then, or co-ops

[untold haven]

how expensive is atlanta

[soft sorrel]

more than amherst lmao

[untold haven]

😭

life is hard

[soft sorrel]

yes

atlanta has warmer weather tho

[untold haven]

even in the terp simp ranking gtech is tied with umass

[soft sorrel]

yesyes, very much

[cursive compass]

HAHA

the best ranking

[untold haven]

ok now seriously, Umass pros: best food, free french classes, Napoleon is there, cheaper, good enough in CS, Gtech pros: it's Gtech

[soft sorrel]

wdym good "enough" 😭 it's like 14 public and 23 general with a huge upward trend and more and more funding every year

[cursive compass]

i very much admire that you are not blindly going gatech

[untold haven]

T10 in Ai in csrankings

[soft sorrel]

i want him to go with me

[cursive compass]

aww

[soft sorrel]

factssss, mega research labs too

[cursive compass]

yes you guys should go both

[soft sorrel]

AND

new cs building in 2025

[untold haven]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA CANT CHOOSE

[cursive compass]

if umass gives me scholarship money then ill be super conflicted

im already so conflicted

these are my options

and im already dying

[untold haven]

costs?

[soft sorrel]

I mean, you can rule out ASU if UMD's cheaper

[untold haven]

in any world umd is cheaper

[brazen mirage]

hmm hypothetically which one would you pick from these

[untold haven]

i mean

umd is cheaper

[soft sorrel]

ASU is expensive yea

[brazen mirage]

nahhh umd would be more expensive

[cursive compass]

UMD is the most expensive

hold up

[soft sorrel]

asu is like 50K

[cursive compass]

ill grab the whole sheet

[soft sorrel]

oos

[cunning bison]

UMiD

[brazen mirage]

asu is like 30k tuition and they have merit aid sooo

[untold haven]

but asu gives good scholarships

yea

[brazen mirage]

but Umd barely has any aid

[soft sorrel]

thats without room and board

[cursive compass]

far right is my COA per school

[untold haven]

intl people have got their coa 30-35K

[cursive compass]

ASU is 10k+ cheaper than my other options

but like i really like all of the other schools a LOT more than ASU

[brazen mirage]

true

[untold haven]

idk how but they did

[cursive compass]

(ignore pitt) idrc about pitt

[soft sorrel]

untrue, mine is still 40 somth

[untold haven]

huh?

didn't see nothing

[cursive compass]

here is the list

[untold haven]

idk i'm an ASU reject

[cursive compass]

these are the four options i have rn

[untold haven]

WHY IS UMN THAT EXPENSIVE

[cursive compass]

the other 6 are cringe/dont interest me as much

[soft sorrel]

you're just special dude

[brazen mirage]

oh have u not gotten aid for umn

[cursive compass]

no scholarship yet asdfghjk

yes

[brazen mirage]

dang

[untold haven]

I got 15k scholarship but thought residents will get more

[cursive compass]

im oos umn

we'll find out

[soft sorrel]

from minesotta .

?*

[untold haven]

oos = intls?

[soft sorrel]

no

[cursive compass]

umn is letting me upload supplemental materials for scholarship consideration

[soft sorrel]

cuz we dont have fed aid

[cursive compass]

so if they do give me some money i will be so confused

[soft sorrel]

fuck intls tho

[cursive compass]

im ineligible for merit aid from UMD (not that i'd get any)

[cursive compass]

dont do this youll get muted even tho ur intl LOL

[soft sorrel]

why tho, we steal rightful americans of their spots, the acceptance rate deflation is solely because of us

[brazen mirage]

Wait where did you get 15k from

[cursive compass]

umn

15/year is like their max i think

[brazen mirage]

oh dang i see

[cursive compass]

wait holy shit im slowly realizing how fucking cracked this man is

@untold haven a demon fr

[soft sorrel]

frfr

we need stats

[cursive compass]

lowkey yes

bro has rizzed up everything

[untold haven]

umn

[untold haven]

it's 25k but it's extremely rare

[cursive compass]

oh wtf?

thats a LOT

[untold haven]

yea

umn wants intls

[brazen mirage]

ok ok

[brazen mirage]

YOO

wtf

umn is so sexy

[untold haven]

umn scholarships for intls are 10k 15k and 25k

umn was my first acceptance

❤️

november 7 iirc

[untold haven]

some day

[soft sorrel]

like fr you must be a killer

[untold haven]

idk how my 1430 SAT got all that

[cursive compass]

LMAO

[strong plank]

It’s funny they say “early next week” it’s literally Monday or Tuesday c’mon

[distant abyss]

could be Sunday

some colleges come over the weekends sometimes

[dense remnant]

it's expensive

[cunning bison]

umass is only school i’m considering even if i don’t get into cs

because i would be willing to do a ling major and a cs minor

though obviously i want manning for that sweet double major

[untold haven]

60k

[cursive compass]

bro asking the real questions

[cerulean niche]

I know someone who did

[coarse jacinth]

I think that UMass should be more like NEU

Waves in the span of a few days is better than waves in the span of a few weeks

[glacial sorrel]

just to clarify does this mean i get 16k per year?

[mighty trellis]

yeo

[glacial sorrel]

that seems a little too good to be true ;-;

i thought it meant 16k over 4 years

[soft sorrel]

yep

[mighty trellis]

how y’all gettin decisions dawg

[glacial sorrel]

nah mine was before

[mighty trellis]

i fuckin live here i did not get the decision yet lmfao

[strong plank]

Same

[glacial sorrel]

rip

[cerulean niche]

16k a year yeah

[cerulean niche]

[mighty trellis]

OOS?

[cursive compass]

LOL

[trim mortar]

16k each year

[glacial sorrel]

[deep trout]

16k plus finaid

[cerulean niche]

[mighty trellis]

shiiiiiiiit

real asf

[cerulean niche]

yeah

from what I heard amherst is really pushing harder

[glacial sorrel]

how do i know how much finaid i get?

[cerulean niche]

the whole area was under construction

[glacial sorrel]

it doesnt say in the letter

[cerulean niche]

[cunning bison]

rizzard of oz

[cursive compass]

so true

[round sandal]

So they didn’t deny that the last wave was a rejection wave 😭😭😭

[dense remnant]

I am guessing last wave is rejections and chancellors both

because there's been less of both

[drifting canopy]

honestly i doubt its a rejection/waitlist wave

umass has a 70% ea acceptance rate

[cursive compass]

Nope

It's really not gonna be a rejection wave bruh

[cursive compass]

Yeah

[drifting canopy]

nonetheless

i just wanna get in

[cursive compass]

LOL SHE LOWKEY A 10 though

[worldly pond]

does umass look at ur uw or weighted gpa? i looked on the admission enrollment report and the gpa given is weighted, so i'm wondering if they recalculate ur gpa.

[exotic jay]

both

they recalculate ur gpa anyway

[strong plank]

Their recalulated GPA is based on a weighted scale

It’s the same scale my school uses at least which is like this

[cursive compass]

wait

if they penalize for A- grades

then im not getting in 💀

[cunning bison]

wait

oh no

💀

[cursive compass]

[distant abyss]

on some fucking mountain in the middle of nowhere

[worldly pond]

@distant abyss did u apply to umd?

[distant abyss]

ye but got deffered 😭

I thought i was gonna get in

[worldly pond]

oh damn they defer

[atomic blaze]

guys is getting deferred from 1st choice or getting into 2nd a better sign

[verbal ledge]

huh

[distant abyss]

uhm

the latter?

[verbal ledge]

latter is way worse

[distant abyss]

i dunno it depends on ur latter major

[verbal ledge]

because it means you were outright denied from first choice

[distant abyss]

like if I got deffered from Umass cs but got into CE i'd take CE

[atomic blaze]

ah

doesnt umass not defer?

[worldly pond]

yea same

[cerulean niche]

yeah but most schools should allow for a major transfer

[wary rivet]

why do we love umass?

[fluid sandal]

my dumbass didnt pick a second major

[cerulean niche]

I know at umass though you cant transfer into business or nursing

[wary rivet]

not for compsci man this major j stupid

[cerulean niche]

but thats ok

[distant abyss]

because
WE ARE THE FUCKING FLAGSHIP
WE ARE THE FUCKING UMASS MINUTEMEN

[worldly pond]

can u transfer from ce to cs

at umass

[wary rivet]

fair

[cerulean niche]

I thought you could?

[distant abyss]

prolly

[fluid sandal]

arent they the same thing

[cerulean niche]

no

[distant abyss]

no

[cerulean niche]

CE and CS diff

[worldly pond]

no ce is like more hardware

[distant abyss]

computer eingineer and cs r 2 diff things

similar but still diff

[worldly pond]

i'd take either

[fluid sandal]

yeah but jobs r the saMe right

[worldly pond]

🙏

[distant abyss]

i mean IT vs CS

hardware vs software

it aint the same

[cerulean niche]

at least for the major I applied I can transfer to other majors

[distant abyss]

we'll just have to see

[cerulean niche]

rip to any business people who didnt get into it

[atomic blaze]

cs > ds > ce > info sci

[exotic jay]

umass doesn’t defer

you cant transfer into cs, biz, or nursing

[drifting canopy]

i would put info sci before ce

[cunning bison]

so real

[radiant turtle]

wait why

[radiant turtle]

if you want a swe job they're looked at as the same

if you want a job in ml/ai or computational research

than maybe things will be different

plus ce can work hardware and to an extent ee jobs

[round sandal]

Not high enough 😭

[cunning bison]

anyone know how competitive is informatics at umass? I put that as my second choice

[cursive compass]

its in CICS, which has an overall acceptance rate of about 40%

CS was 30%ish last year, which means informatics (the only other major in CICS) is pulling it up

[cunning bison]

damn

[cursive compass]

it was over 40% for sure last yr

[worldly pond]

is ce as competitive as cs?

i put ce as my second choice and ik that ce isn't in cics

[cursive compass]

engineerings acceptance rate overall was above 50% last year i believeeeee

itll drop this year probably with the whole schools overall acceptance rate but its def less compettive than CS for sure

[exotic jay]

nah not as much

umass isn’t well known for eng

[cursive compass]

yeah
