Put engineering as second choice

grave pivot
#

true vale
#

Bruhhhhh

#

Fuck the minutemen

blissful crystal
#

Ngl I think it’s just the sheer amount of ppl who’ve applied this year

#

If you got waitlisted it might just be Umass waiting to eval the rd pool for any cancer curers

grave pivot
#

i got umd and uw madison

#

dont care about LMass Amherst

#

bro why is cs so hard

#

people are getting rejected from umd uw umass at random with god tier stats

sterile eagle

astral galleon
sterile eagle

grave pivot
#

its just random

drowsy kiln
grave pivot
#

before going into this whole process

#

i thought it being random was copium

#

but it really doesn't make sense how similar tier schools just randomly accept or reject you

sterile eagle
#

fr

grave pivot
#

like what makes my essays and stats good enough for umd and not good enough for umass amherst

sterile eagle
#

i got deferred purdue

grave pivot
#

grave pivot
#

i didnt even apply ucs

sterile eagle

like huh

livid ravine
#

if you're waitlisted do you have to send in mid year reports? im assuming yes

exotic jay
#

yea

cerulean niche
#

yeah you do

rose gyro
#

Did anyone get in?

cerulean niche
#

yeah

#

I know a few ppl who got in

#

today

indigo rain
#

for those who got waitlisted, did u pick a second major?

#

Because I know most did computer science and it’s really competitive

drifting canopy
#

Yeah I did

#

I picked computer engineering as a backup

reef heart
#

waitlist at umass is stupid, if you get waitlisted for primary major you cant get into secondary

cerulean niche
#

and ive heard that sometimes if people dont commit within a certain timeframe they start opening more spots in the major

reef heart
#

what are the stats of people who got into cs

#

are they actually yield protecting or is it just competitive

lusty coral
#

It's not as competitive as people make it out to be

#

There is definitely some yield protection

tawdry yoke
#

everyone in this wave got waitlisted tho

livid ravine
#

did anyone get in OOS for cs?

tawdry yoke
#

i didnt see a single person get in period

lusty coral
#

With all these waitlists I was expecting one too but I got in for CS - 1560 4.0uw 4.4w in state

reef heart
#

last wave always has the waitlists and rejections same thing last year

lusty coral
#

so im kinda surprised

livid ravine
#

did they pull a umich and put OOS in defer pile

reef heart
spark glade
#

The waitlists are for which majors, CS?

lusty coral
#

i would say that too but I have seen similar applicants get WL

reef heart
#

I also have friends at umass cs and they are all 1500+ with high UW and W GPA

spark glade
#

I got into Umass I think mid December with a non STEM major. The standards per major are insane

spark glade
#

I got 16k a year

reef heart
#

are you considering the school

spark glade
#

Considering how NEU went today, I'd say yeah

#

I'll see how much money I get from Rutgers first

cerulean niche
#

my friend got in for cs today - 4.56 gpa, 1440

reef heart
spark glade
#

Yeah, I did bad sophomore year in terms of GPA

reef heart

#

South Asian, Male

reef heart
#

bruh umass makes no sense

cerulean niche
#

i'd assume theres some thing where they waitlist people who are too good

#

I know thats what happened with my brother when he was applying for cs

reef heart
#

but the dude above had a 4.0 1560 and got in

lusty coral
#

they also overenrolled like fuck last year

cerulean niche
#

ye

lusty coral
#

so there is an element of randomness too

#

they simply cant take everyone

spark glade
#

I also went for a niche (ish) major so it was in my favor

lusty coral
#

w major

spark glade
#

LOL, it's something alright

cerulean niche
#

whats a francophone

reef heart
spark glade
#

french speaking basically

lusty coral
#

you're a umass stupid I hear

reef heart
lusty coral
#

but yeah it's wild out here

cerulean niche
#

id assume its also cuz the cs department is still pretty small

lusty coral
#

I got deferred neu

spark glade
#

same here

cerulean niche
#

a lot of students but they cant deal with demand

lusty coral
#

Yeah that is true

#

It's a combination of a lot of things I think

reef heart
#

the cs deparment is a mess with enrolling into classes

lusty coral
#

Overenrollment, small department, some yield protection, etc

#

thats how you get the umass 2023 shitshow

reef heart
#

so many cool ML classes here tho

spark glade
#

in your opinions, is the college admissions process/decision more fucked this year or last

cerulean niche
#

CS is like a semi limited major isnt it

lusty coral
#

probably this year

#

but 2020 was fucked

cerulean niche
#

I'd assume the opposite

#

2025-2026 probably was the worst years

reef heart
cerulean niche
#

a lot of people took time off from college

#

and also the rise in demand for public universities

lusty coral
#

Good thing I can't afford oos

potent merlin
#

I forgor to withdraw and ended up getting waitlisted

reef heart
#

umass is nice because they make it almost the same by giving the OOS the chancellor scholarship

lusty coral
#

Where would you place your stats

lusty coral
cerulean niche
#

doesnt umass give like $50 million in aid

#

or something

reef heart
cerulean niche
#

I saw a news article about it

reef heart
cerulean niche
#

well in state is pretty cheap

#

lol

reef heart
#

34k is not cheap

potent merlin
cerulean niche
#

34k a year is pretty good deal

reef heart
#

just because nyu costs 80k

lusty coral
reef heart
#

doesnt make 34k cheap

cerulean niche
#

for the professional development id say its good

lusty coral
#

yea everyone i know instate is getting jack from umass

cerulean niche
#

I got a 2k scholarship but reading it thats the highest they give

reef heart
#

only honors college gets scholarship

#

because thier dorms cost more

#

so they offset it

potent merlin
# lusty coral Yeah

I am the midest of mid student. 3.7-85 usually. TO and good ECs. That's what made me stand out

The Official Discord Thread for the Waitlisted Minutemen!!!

#

Yo if I pick both fall and spring waitlist would they give me spring on purpose

round sandal
cunning bison
#

Yeah that’s wut I’m scared of

round sandal
#

Bc there is no way I’m going in the spring

#

There’s a reason we are applying in the fall admissions in the first place

cunning bison
#

Yeah true

round sandal
#

We can’t even graduate early

#

Or they mean next year

cunning bison
#

They mean next year

#

How funny

cunning bison
#

Fax

round sandal
#

U think they are going to let anyone off the waitlist in march

#

Or the usual late April/may

cunning bison
#

I’ll honestly consider spring but I rather have fall

cunning bison
#

It’s mostly in may

#

My friend got off of the waitlist end of April

round sandal
cunning bison
#

U think they gonna put me in spring automatically if I pick both

bright radish
cunning bison
#

That’s what I’m scared of

round sandal
#

Unless u genuinely willing to go in the spring

cunning bison
#

Imma just pick both

#

Does the time u submit determine your waitlist spot?

#

Idea

#

Prob some kind of sorting system

U would think right

Yea if ur intl getting into state schools is hard asf

normal fulcrum
#

Yeah i feel that too. And i think getting waitlisted is the worst since they are going to tell me in May if I get in or not and by then i have to commit to the University of my choice that I have been accepted at. 😦

muted elk
#

Well once u commit u can still go to another school

#

Idk how it works but ik lots of ppl do it

normal fulcrum
#

You can? Then i'll probably have to consider umass as an option as well then. Coz i read online and they have like an acceptance rate of around 50% for the waitlisted students

cunning bison
#

Fall is way lower I heard

muted elk
normal fulcrum

U sure it’s 50?

I may be wrong

is umass spring waitlist decision gonna come out the same time as fall waitlist

drifting canopy
#

no

#

they said if you are on the spring waitlist you would be contacted in the summer for further instruction

cunning bison
#

Alright

#

would we have to apply for fafsa again?

#

for umass

#

for spring

drifting canopy
#

oh idk

#

i didnt do financial aid

#

you should email umass admissions

cunning bison
#

oh

#

alright

#

will do

cunning bison
#

@drifting canopy do you know if the time u submit will affect your spot on the waitlist?

fluid sandal
#

I think

worldly pond
#

really?

#

i submitted 3 hours after the decision released

#

i think it prolly matters if u submitted the next day or smthing

drifting canopy
#

it says the best way to improve your chances is to submit right away

cunning bison
normal fulcrum
#

I mean from what i read online and on their website, the draw for waitlist is according to the applicant profile but it's better to submit it as quickly as possible

#

I submitted mine the same day as well within like 2-3 hours

drifting canopy

i submited mine in 4 minutes

Do they release waitlist updates all at once or in waves

#

are they releasing waitlist decisions by whatever date it was they said or on whatever date they said?

waitlist is not a defer

youre essentially not getting in

off the waitlist

although that number probably does not include people admitted to spring term off the waitlist

#

i doubt its that much higher though

cunning bison
#

Nah spring is way higher

cursive compass
#

damn fr?

#

thats nice actually

#

also do i write a loci for umass amherst waitlist?

cunning bison
#

i dont think so

cursive compass

cunning bison
#

cursive compass
#

ah i see

@cursive compass did u pick fall or both?

Either send a new teacher recommendation or contact an admissions representative directly to show the school you still want to go! A lot of times, schools waitlist their applicants because they don’t think he/she will attend if accepted. If you’re waitlisted to a school you really want to attend, make it clear to the Office of Admissions that you will go if you got in.

cursive compass

#

lemme see

#

I sent my loci in and they told me that they added the information to my file. Worth a try

#

If you’re waitlisted to a school you really want to attend, make it clear to the Office of Admissions that you will go if you got in

How do I make it clear to them, that I really want to attend

woeful flicker

you email admissions office?

#

Wait r u guys sure we can send one it says on their website do not send additional information

soft sorrel
#

a loci isnt info

#

info is idk test scores

#

well idk im no expert afterall

#

cunning bison
#

Yeah idk it says sending letters will not strengthen your chances

#

Anyone know if that’s referring to loci?

fallen remnant
#

when a thread doesnt have messages for 24 hrs

it gets archived

usually it signifies the death of the thread

No

Wait i'm confused – did people get their rd decisions already? Or is it just ea so far? I hear people talking about getting waitlisted, which I thought was only an RD thing.

they waitlist ea

tranquil stirrup

Ah okay got it

#

Thx

#

Do you know if the later waves are mostly waitlists and the earlier waves are mostly acceptances? Or is this unknowable

soft sorrel
tranquil stirrup
#

anyone know if earlier applications get earlier decisions back? or is it not based on order

cedar gale
#

For ea I submitted mine about a week before the deadline and I got my results in the first wave so I don't think so

livid ravine
#

If waitlisted, does Umass want mid year reports? If so do I just get my counselor to mail it to them digitally?

quaint plank

Your not getting off waitlist

Dosnt really matter
