#case western? (2022-2023)
1 messages · Page 3 of 1
but case's like 75th percentile still falls in the low 1500s not like their averages arent competitive
so how high do u gotta be for yield is weird
the thing is
my school's naviance scattergram shows upper 1500 acceptances
I don't see yield protection reflected
do lot of ppl from your school apply to CWRU?
well part of it is also ECs
Admissions officers at case:
can this applicant get into cornell? yes? ..defers
Accepted with big scholarship! Thought I was gonna get yield protected but ig my in person tour must have helped
Epic!
how do u see this
congrats!
What's the maximum scholarship case automatically considers an applicant for? Wondering if I can negotiate something higher than what I got once I get some other acceptances
it is a thing my school has called naviance. if you don't know what naviance is, your school probably doesn't have it
how big?
i have naviance but idk where on naviance to see it
go into the college's page and click admissions
iirc
Highest I've seen is 35k for merit
Did anyone else get in with no scholarship?
And how would I request to receive some merit?
for merit i don’t think i’ve seen anything higher than 43k (2/3s of tuition) but i’d bet some kids are on full rides if their getting fafsa financial aid as well
$30.5k. Still leaves a lot to pay 😪
i did but I’m not in this round (ED)
me
One of my friends did
Lmao that was my exact thought process last year
And uh... I kinda ended up somewhere nice
Also congrats everyone!!!
does anyone know the acceptance rate for EA this year
The million dollar question: to Ed or to not ed
fr
yea
Nah. My friend and I both got in ea. She didn’t show any interest but I did and she goes to Penn and I’m at cmu now
lmao
wasnt good enough to be deferred
😭
this is what college apps have amounted to
I'll let you know I am pursuing a degree in portal astrology 😤
Guys, I actually have applied RD to cwru but still haven't submitted my mid year grades. My counselor is not responding to my email from days. What do I do now? 😭 Any Idea...
Can my teacher send them?
can u meet ur counselor in school?
Can I contact to my other counselor? They don't have registered email in my common app. How will university know them as counselor? @wanton peak
for me, i had a counselor but she went on leave and left the school in like november so a diff counselor sent my stuff
i suggest emailing that counselor to do it and ask if they can
Hmm. I will
Thanks
Don't worry about it until the end of break. It is usually okay if documents like those aren't submitted by the deadline. It won't negatively affect your decision
schools send out mid year grades at different times so you should be fine, there’s not really a tight deadline. mine go out in february.
whatever happens you’ll be okay ❤️
can anyone help proofread my case essay
there's a case essay????
how many words did u do? it doesnt say a word limit
388
I keep it max 400
ye
its like the one that demonstrates further interest
oh the one in the portal
lmk if u need a proofeader
ye
can you please proofread my essay
sure
I'll proofread as well
Ooh proofread
I can proofread if you want as well
So many people o_O
lol. I got someone proofreading it. Thank you
That cwru pre professional scholar essay???
No the deferred optional essay
when do i sendthe case defer update in?
January 22 is the deadline
💀 it looks like they defer most people because they want to see people write essays to show that they have demonstrated interest. Why not just add that opinion upon submitting
More people will apply if there is no essay
More applicants = more people to reject = lower acceptance rate = higher ranking
More money I see
THAT....
OMG
Almost every university of any notarity plans the ranking game like that. Case does it a lot though. They're pretty self-conscious about their rankings from what I know.
cwru: ranked #1 insecure university
trueeee
if they change their goddamn ui font then maybe they would be higher ranked
it's so ugly lmao
idk if I should ED 2 or just RD
I'd rather go to most other reach schools than case, but it's my last resort, although maybe I just haven't found too much to like about it just yet
probs rd then
RD imo
Don't ask the internet what u should do. Do what ur heart wants to do
I mean there are some objective reasons to not ED2
Like financials
If those don’t add up
But usually make sure you’re pretty set on it bc it isn’t smth you can get out of because you feel like it
Whether or not you’re “set enough” on it isn’t for me to decide
Yea I’m in the same boat as you rn
Idk
This is why Case deferred most of us because we are never interested
my man wants us to visit Ohio 💀
Can't imagine, it is a fake state, plus does anyone really live there?
lol,,,,, now imagine talking to someone from Ohio
I live near case lmao
I just don't want to stay in ohio forever
bro i really got deferred from ohio 💀
500 words max
@rocky vine I wouldn't go with a hard word limit if I were you. I am keeping it to about a page of single-spaced 12-point font writing. Try not to go more than that, but if what you have to say is absolutely essential, then write some more.
due jan 22nd right
ill do it later ig
also its prob a good ide ato show more di over these next few months right
i showed nearly 0 and thats why i think i got deferred ig or yield idk
Yea, DI is huge for CWRU
i just got rejected from cwru. 1530 SAT all A*s in A level. I am an international requiring aid. CWRU had the highest acceptance rate from the other scools i applied to. Im so disheartened. Does that mean i will get rejected from all other schools? 😦
rip
nope
case just knows u wont go cuz of ur high scores so to protect their yeild rate, they rejected u
idk i also got rejected from cornell. Now i feel like i will get rejected from everywhere. But one thing is that i only applied from aid from cornell and cwru. Other schools i applied to don't give need based aid to internationals, so maybe i have a chance
ye
its prob aid
cornell is just naturally competitvie
even if u discovered or cure cancer
u might still get rejected
a kid with 3 generations legacy (grandparents, dad, sister) also got rejected from duke (who went to their summer program)
he had 4.0+gpa
1550+ sat
great ECs
hispanic
sooooo
dont worry
how tf 
exactly
only 1 kid got deferred and 1 got accepted so far
the kid got deferred is like captain of us high school top 1 swim team, plays piano really good, also amazing stats (1560 sat + 4.0+ gpa, went to brown + duke + some other prestigious schools in us, white - cuz duke loves caucasian apparently)
idk abt the accepted cuz im not close with him lol
you will be where you are meant to be! don’t lost hope u got this
yessir
not hope but just dont beat yourself up over rejection
big thing in our life is to accept the rejection and live on
live goes on
show goes on
dw i have the same stats
we'll get in somewhere nice dw
bro uni is like a draw of cards
u never know what they might like
overthinking it wont help, just believe that your application was the best it could be and u've done your best hence you'll go to college
at the end of the day, it wont make much of a difference in the long run of where u graduate from
sure stanford degree might get u a headstart...but its what u do after college that matters
good luck to you!
you can do it
cwru deferral still haunts me
same
hoping its yield but idek
i could just suck and not much interest shown was prob bad too
Every day...
i'm still so lost bro i have a 35 and 4.745 W 4.0 UW i don't get it
literally you're too good for them. They deferred you to keep their yield up and acceptance rate down
They were probably yield protecting, or you have shit ECs, essays, and personality
icbbbbb
What????
sorry it’s just the “maybe you have shit personality” was funny to me 😭😭
like girl…you might be right 😭 case western deffering me because i’m toxic frrr
LMFAO, they could sense it!
They knew that a toxic person was in-bound and they pulled the escape hatch
got me fucked up with that shit personality
Literally me lol
but cwru doesn't have any essays doe 😵💫
commonapp essay
hello there again
did yall turn in the defer form alr
ill probably do it next week
so i can update with some stuff
Common App Essay and additional information both are, also any supplemental materials such as research abstracts or papers, journals, articles, code, etc.
case western?

Guys, I'm confused. How do I check my cwru portal? I got an activation link and I activated my CWRU network ID. Now I can't see any application checklist.
login through this link and it should show you your portal
anyone know when the application update is actually due?
for deferral
i thought it was 22nd
im not entirely sure though
someone confirm 🙏
cuz i havent done it
^ if anyone knows pls
do it ASAP anyhow
It is the 22nd
Guys, while filling out the common app. I clicked 'no' on portfolio section unfortunately. Can I still ask the Cwru admission office for portfolio section, I intend to submit portfolio.
It is the 22nd
Yes, you can still submit the portfolio, but I would email the AOs to let them know.
Thanks
did anyone apply EA and get deferred from case too? im super debating whether or not to do ED since they're my top school. it just depends on how much ill get for a merit scholarship if any of you know how generous they are with them 😭
i heard that a good amount of people got deferred EA, check #👻-the-medium-place. I remembering seeing people in that channel talk about it.
yeah i posted there too when i got the update 😭 i’ve been trying to find anything i can about their merit scholarships these last few hours tho and i haven’t been able to find anything that recent so i was hoping someone here might be able to give me some insight ✋🏼😔
Got my acceptance package in the mail 😄
I am doing EDII to show the DI because I'm concerned I got denied because of a lack of it
They're pretty generous and you can withdraw from ED agreements if you don't get enough money
oh really???
do you just like
You just don't enroll. You should send an email, but they're not going to be a bitch about it
email the finaid office and are like “hey i cant afford this. pls let me out if this”
oh
then why would they market it like you’re legally obligated to go there if you can just not enroll 😭
I take that back. You ideally should send an email explaining the situation
They want people to take it seriously, but they're not going to make you go bankrupt by attending their school if it isn't financially feasible though
hmm makes sense. thanks for letting me know about that though, case is definitely my top choice but the idea that i’d HAVE to go there even if i couldn’t afford it was giving me so much anxiety
I'd definitely ED then b/c they will let you out of the agreement if that is an issue. Also, most everyone I know got some sort of large merit scholarship upon receiving their acceptance letter, so expect a decent amount off the tuition amount. Check their average net cost, and that is near what you can expect to pay.
yeah i did their net price calculator + looked at their cds cost section. came out a little over budget but if i get the average merit amount along with my estimated finaid, then it'd be possible so i was really 50/50 on the possibility on it all working out well yk?
Congratulations 🎉
idk abt rd scholarships but i think most of the ea accepted kids got 29.5k...thats around 50%
is it possible for us schools to mail me from us to vietnam lol?
Lmao. Only if you make deposit and enroll after acceptance
my friend
got accepted ea with 80k
she isnt fgli at all
mfw shes been pushing off withdrawing cuz she got into her ed
🤡
Whats her ed?
Is that for a year or total? If its per year is that basically a free full ride 😂
idk but im making her withdraw
if she leaves the offer open indefinitely, rip ed2
anyone know when CASE BSMD comes out?
Why tho
she got in ed elsewhere
shes been sitting on this acceptance for like 4 weeks
3
Ah ofc 😂
Theres no point tho 💀💀💀
She alr got in her ed
exactly
bates
Wow! That's an amazing college.
Ah
whats fgli
first gen low income
yea
arent u supposed to withdraw all apps when u get into ED lol
yea 💀 exactly
did bates give her a deadline to enroll?
submitted ED 2 after being deferred today 🫣 now we wait and hope
gl
Gl 🫡
i don't really wanna go to case but i'm submitting for RD out of pride
deferral makes me sad
You paid the app fee so you absolutely should. They don't deserve $75 to give a deferral
Same
Im doing it to hurt their yeild rate cuz they deferred me 🙂
What are y'all writing about for the deferral "Why Case?" essay?
bob in the webinar rn saying that deferral decisions mean that you are academically qualified to be admitted, and that the deferral decision is mostly based on 'fit' (factors in the picture)
he said earlier they dont do yield
also no point in loci's for case cuz the form is basically a loci right
well they wouldn't say they yield in admissions
but case has historically an insanely low yield rate so 😭
true
how many defers total though
seems like they are avoiding saying that
also i gotta start attending this shit to boost my di 😭 😭
I put in a question
prolly cuz of yield protection
im starting to think yield protection is a shared delusion we are all experiencing
i agree
id say unless you are literally 4.0 1600 you probably didnt get yielded
based on this slide
lmao
I also said this question
he prob avoided that shit
yeah maybe
i have a similar gpa and higher test scores but like there's also way more to an app than just stats
but also idt i got yielded
i just didnt show enough interest 💀 attended like 2 sessions
how to show more help
I changed my activities list significantly and changed my additional information equally significantly. The changes include adjusting my descriptions to include quantifiable numbers for my activities (—# tons of food raised, —# articles of clothing, —# state rank, —# downloads, —# service hours) and adding, removing, and reordering my activities to better fit who I am. Reading my application, the updates completely change how you read it. It is a substantial improvement. Will Case not let me update that portion of my common app?
Per year?
Q and A?
I can fill you in!
I registered but was a noshow im more worried about my demonstrated interest 😭
guys dont worry abt DI
i have shown literally no DI
none
but I got in ea
DI wont matter much dw
same
wait so are these the average stats for the students who were or weren’t admitted? i’m just a little confused based on your caption vs the slide’s 😭
Those are the stats for those who were admitted so far
oh then why does it say “not admitted” on the slide?
Idk they might be the qualifications to be admitted
They don't have qualifications to be admitted.
I believe those are the students who have been deferred.
got deferred cuz my guidance counselor didn’t submit my transcript and rec on time when i sent the request 7 weeks before deadline :’)
thank you great school systems
That's so tough. I wish you luck during the deferral round!
Same lol 😏 they defer me now i make them wait
Lol
So much info given my this ohio school 🤡
Also they try to protect their yeild rate but look 🤡 loterally lower than other safe schools like purdue or uiuc
Facks
Ohio go brrrrrrr
I'm ED IIing, does that help my chances?
isn't ed rate greater than ea rate???
Well not much
One id say is 33-35 ish
The other is closer to 40
So not big difference
If u want to be specific than yes ed is slightly higher
Yea, I do believe so.
ye lol
they defer both me and my friend lol
i mean my friend honestly deserve it cuz his lazy ass didnt do any ECs or awards and simply has a decent scores lol
doing ED II to case now
hopefully
it's a school that I'd be happy to go to, just not hung up on enough to destroy me
although imo it's the best course of action
Me as well. I'm hoping it helps lock in my acceptance
it's 11:59, time to turn in my app
Good luck @thorn swan
Thanks, you too
What’s crack a lacking?
Not much, you?
Did you apply EDII or RD?
Nice well you got this🙏🙌
Yea, thank you!
is it worth it for me to continue application w case
i got deferred for yield im pretty sure
4.7/3.96 w 1550 and a strong common app
i heard they track demonstrated interest
idk if its worth the time/effort to write the "why case" essay to continue my application if im just gonna get rejected for yield/lack of interest again
unless they dont do yield and my application was just terrible
If you EDII, I don't think that'll happen
I would go for it, especially if you want to go to Case and it's a good target school for you
You can create a solid rough draft in like 2 hours if you know what you're doing. Including solid revision time it'll probably be a total of 3-5 hours to make a good "Why Case?" so given that it is not a HUGE commitment, I would go for it.
im not planning on ED since im fairly confident im getting into either berkeley/LA, case is more of a backup if anything goes wrong
so really theyre right for deferring me
ill figure it out
I'd just RD then and go for it. If you write a compelling Why essay, I think you're fine
I'm aware haha. I'm hoping that a good Why Case essay and EDII will lock it in though. Might also submit my resume.
due 22nd right havent started
ify similar stats 3.9smth 35 strong common app i hope and i think i just didnt show nearly enough interest so i got deferred, i dont wanna say yield bcuz ik i didnt show interest, so i feel like that might be why
Finally, people who are applying to CWRU real time. I went everywhere online trying to find people who applied ED2/apply RD. It was like a ghost town.
ngl i forgot and just submitted leaving it all blank for rd
a bit too lazy to care now ngl
but gl to everyone in the next round
Did you get deferred? I think rd and ed2 are due jan 15 but if you got deferred, you have until jan 22 to submit your application update.
yeah defer
cwru's ed2 decision date is "within 2 weeks after Jan 9" ( I submitted my update that day) but my school sent the mid year reports on the 12th. So which day does the "within 2 weeks" start?
I believe it starts after they receive all of your materials
OK thanks
The one where on the same page you choose rd or ed2?
ye
It was around 5-6 sentences. "Optional short answer" is what it was called I think. So I didn't take it too seriously.
But I did emphasize why case was my first choice
Yeah, around there. At least for me
aight aight
case western more like pouch western
How long? Couldn't hurt to write more
I like to do 3 threes in my "Why?" essays. I look at the school as a whole, the department I am interested in, and then the program that I'm looking at specifically. I first discuss why I am interested in my degree field and connect that to the program that I'm looking into specifically. Then, I research that department very specifically to try and find unique and/or cool things about it that are different and/or special versus other schools. Finally, I usually close off with a paragraph about the school. I recently wrote about the unique level of access to business programs I get as an engineering student at UW-Madison (funding, certificates, minors, and classes). In that last paragraph, I make it a point to exemplify through what and how I am writing that I fit into their institutional ideology towards learning. Sometimes it works to quote some part of it or to talk about it specifically, but at the very least you need to exemplify it in what you're writing about and how your demeanor towards it.
I can send you an example of two.
To those who already applied ed2, do you guys see your mid year transcript in the uploaded materials section? In my other rd schools they all seem to have it but in the cwru portal the ed agreement only shows up.
cwru due tmr right
Why y'all sending 4 messages for a sentence worth of information?
Yes, it's just the form. It is due before the 22nd, not on the 22nd
that's how i type
lmao
i'm gonna submit the loci now
Sometimes when I'm in Discord, my screen is filled with one or two word messages. I'm not trying to read vertically, I'm tryna read horizontally.
I'm not sure. I assume they have it. I am guessing that if they didn't have it, they would mark the transcript section of your portal as incomplete, but that's my only theory.
submitted the stupid loci
I havent even looked at or started the LOCI yet am i screwed
prob
if theres one thing ive learned through this process
its that deadlines dont mean shit
Just making sure, is the loci the portal page where you update either rd or ed2
Yea
Idk why they're calling it the loci
Thanks. I was getting nervous if I missed something.
You're chillin man
for the additional sections
did u write in like bullet points
or write like a proper essay
it just says additional academic/ec
also what length should the last one be ideally
is like 300 good
I am going for an improper essay. I am just getting straight to the point and giving them the info they need.
Additional info sections can be as long as you need to convey your information effectively
I would max out that final essay at 700 words. I'm aiming for around 600
I said max out at that. I'm not saying 700 is a good idea
Mine is probably going to be like 500
I'm still in the editing/revising process
tbh the propt is generic
im j reusing a supp and changing it to case
and its alr at like 500
When I'm done writing mine, will one of y'all look at it and peer edit it?
Sure. I submitted mine on Jan 6 and ever since I've been refreshing my screen everyday in hopes of a decision result. 😦
You should get it by next Saturday
You should've heard back today actually
They aim to announce decisions on Saturdays, and it has been two weeks since you submitted
They did state that the "within 2 weeks" rolling admission started on Jan 9, so that would be Monday. Hopefully then. If not, I'm missing something
or maybe could be that my school sent transcripts on a Wednesday, so the results would be next wednesday.
lol idk man
Oh yea, I forgot about that. That makes sense. Expect it sometime midweek next week then.
huh
case is rolling??
oh ed2
what would add.academic info include
like idk what to add, grades are in mid years so that doesnt matter, i have like 1 award from app date till now, should i include other awards i never put on in teh first place? or what qualifies as "additional academic info"
the ec one is pretty easy
Yurrrr
Literally just include anything else you think is cool or important. Include that award you got and maybe others you didn't have space to include.
maybe 700 is gonna happen 💀
i decide to copy paste and edit my 650 word why cornell essay
making it this long prob not a good idea though
cs?
i think purdue is better at engineering is better than case tho
so for that reason, i'm out
It's pretty damn close. Its much more valuable to look at which program you will be in specifically
lmfao no they're not
case is #32 in EE
purdue is #11 in EE
i'm also ECE at purdue so it's more worth it
Yea, so then it makes sense for you
still stuck on additional academic info this shit is kicking me
i freewrote 700 words for the ec one before realizing im just ranting about projects 😭
but i cant even write 100 for academic info
You don't have to include anything if you don't have anything to inlcude
ig
its like the category
i wont talk about grades cuz in mid year
its just an awards section no?
Mostly
do u think talking about a project in a class works
like i made something in an independent study class, and im presenting it at a showcase soon
but its not an ec, its more of a school-related thing so hence academic info
Yes, that is huge
Talk about that
kk
What is it, if you don't mind sharing?
ah so we have an independent study sort of class where we work on projects of our choosing throughout the year, and for the first semester I created a awareness campaign and resources for recovery database for eating disorders & similar mental illnesses, its nothing crazy, like the showcase presentation is just to show off our work to local community at a nearby football field, not like one of those fancy conference things researchers do, but its not on my ec list since it was smth i did this senior year so i figured i could talk about it
for defers, they will re-read ur app right
Yea, but it will be a bit more a skim because they will have the notes of the previous reader, if it isn't the same reader
That's super cool nevertheless. I love that.
tyy
my why case essay is a copy of my why cornell so its like 650 words 💀 hope its not too long
j gonna attend every online session from now till march and pray
i had none before i got deferred soo might explain why but not skip them anymore fr
I'm at 600 words, what do we think? Too much?
Actually, before I submit, would you be willing to take a look at it @slim atlas?
sure idm
I dm'd you
i did about 670 words
used a lot of my harvard career essay
i basically changed an old essay around to fit case
wasn't a lot of effort
mhm
didn't write a 670 word essay about academics or extracurriculars lmfao
idk like 100-150 i believe
i can check i have them saved
oh way less actually
38 for the additional academic one
72 for the additional extracurricular info one
669 for the "Optional short answer: Imagine your future. How will you utilize the resources and opportunities available at Case Western Reserve University to realize that future?"
nah i just wrote about how i've signed up for an additional AP test
i don't see why not
does case see our quarter 2 grades now that we got deferred
I don't think so, but don't quote me on that
I ended up with exactly 600 words
No, they do not. They just see semester one or quarter one grades
my mid year grades are the worst ever
cuz of a singel class
ap chem
idt case is takin me
ig technicallly my stats are still above their averages evn with this shit class fucking me over in senior year but like idk
relatable. I think you're fine. They know how hard AP Chem is
A2C I need help!!! I need to do my CWRU LOCI form but I don't remember which major I applied for. I used SCOIR and there is no place where I can see what I submitted. Does anyone know how to find this infp?
I have no clue
Didn't the LOCI form say it was due before the 22nd?
Are you sure?
yes
im on the form rn
and im in the shits
ik im too good
did you actually apply to 34 schools?
my essay was literally 200 words i wrote that so quick
i literally applied to the exact same number of schools
I did 28
WHAT THE FUCK
YES
WTF
how r we so similar
whats ur major tho
dang ok i applied to a few schools CS but mainly business
accepted Purdue and IU
indiana strong ig
fr wild
i spent around 10 minutes on this essay
does case send EDII decisions at 8 EST like they do with EA? i’m supposed to get my decision today but i couldn’t find a time to expect it so i’ve been neurotically checking my email every hour today 😭
bro i submitted my LOCI form with 10 seconds to spare 😆
prob 8pm
good luck let us know how it goes
oh dw i will 😭 it’s all i’ve been thinking about today
gl to u too
Thank you
it's 8 pm est, did you get yours yet?
🤨
this is stressing me out
indeed
I don't think it's coming today. That's weird.
rip
pre med?
ppsp?
Me? no
Sure, couldn't hurt
How do time zones work when submitting? If it's by the 24th, it should be by your 11:59, right?
Guys, Have anyone done the cwru Andrew and Eleanor Squire Scholarship essay?
What responsibility should a CWRU graduate have in working toward a just society? Explain your views in an essay of 500 words or less.
Can someone give me tips to approach this essay? please...
What are your ideas of a just society? How can your major contribute and in what ways does cwru help your major so that when you graduate you become an effective leader?
Yeah, I sent an email to check if I'm missing anything.
And no reply 😦
tears
Do you know when your school sent the transcripts?
like for early action or ed ii because idt they sent transcripts for ED 2
case already has my transcripts up to my 6th semester and they didn’t ask for my 7th semester grades
Yeah it doesn't show any mid year transcripts in my cwru portal also. However, for the rd schools I applied to, they sent it all on jan 12. So if my school did send it to cwru, even though it doesn't show, my decision should be tomorrow at the very latest. Since tomorrow is 2 weeks since my "completed application."
tea this is mine
yoinked from reddit so idk take what you will i guess
but it's case case's sub so
I think if mine does come tomorrow, It'll be based on 2 weeks after your school sent the mid year transcript to your rd schools. If not, Ill just call them.
they didnt ask me for a mid year report 
i had all of my college apps done by like mid december so
no
i was horrendously (and irrationally) scared of not going to college because my ECs honestly suck so a lot of my schools were safeties
go to any rd school and check uploaded materials. Your school will have sent the mid year
like half of them
No shame in that. My ecs suck
yeah i just checked my W&M app that i applied to for RD and it just said "high school transcript"
nothing about a midyear report needed
Oh. I'm just trying to find a reason for our late decisions lol. They could've at least answered my email. I sent it at 7 AM

maybe the 2 week thing is just like...an estimate or something 
maybe our decisions will be out around the same time as ppsp like that woman's daughter
omg
or man
That would mean they're holding our applications back because there are not enough applicants at the moment to compare us to.... so that would be a disadvantage ... 🤨 😱
I believe
😃👍🏼 we are surviving
Lmao
Maybe, but nothing so far ☹️
I don't think so
i was never told i needed to send in a mid year report 
if i don’t have a decision by the time nine’s out, i’ll probably email them to check
i need to send in mine but what date do we need it in by
Idk my school sends it automatically
oh i have to pay for them lmao
I attended a Q&A session hosted by CWRU students yesterday, and they said that decisions will be released on January 28.
Saturday? Big day 🤯
RD or ED
RD isn't until march
but also why would they put on their website that they'll send out decisions 2 weeks after submission starting jan 9 if they're planning to do it on saturday 
thanks
what other schools did you guys apply to / have gotten in to?
and how high is case western on that list of priorities
michigan, william & mary, franklin and marshall, union college, colorado state, michigan state, wayne state, suny esf, michigan tech
case top choice
got into union, csu, msu, wsu, esf, and tech. deferred EA from case, applied ED2 this cycle. half of my list are safeties because i was (irrationally) terrified of not going to college 
ok to me tech means georgia tech but idk if thats just a georgia thing
nvm i didnt read the top part
michigan
yeah i figured it would be like that
tech deserves the one true tech name tho because its good
and like
mit already has an acronym
tea
trestrictive early action
top 5 for me
cwru isnt that high on my list ngl
dont have god enough linguistics
also hello fellow /poli/
hi poly
thanks for the replies
case seems like a good school but i heard the weather was pretty bad and i typically dislike the cold
if i didn’t get into any of my reaches i would go to case
they gave me a lot of fin aid but idk if i could afford it
yeah i think they give financial aid to most people but it's still costly
yeah exactlyyy
they expect me to pay half of my parents yearly income 😭😭
and it doesn’t cover school expenses / flights during vacations etc
unless something comes to light that significantly impacts my opinion, i'll likely go to local community college and transfer into a better school over case
i guess ill just see what my other options are
yes
ED2
they expect me to pay my parents' full income 
i suppose so, you’re by a lake though so you’ll get a bit of a maritime effect
yooo guys does bs/md come out tmrw
Not sure
I think so though
Says that the pre-professional scholars program released on the 28th
Yo, still waiting for an email
Update came out!!!!!! Gonna open it with my family
Or it says, "view update"
@simple jackal
SKDJDJD TYSM I NEED TK FRANTICALLY CALL MY FRIEND NOW
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE
haven’t checked
omggg good luck everyone u guys got this 🕺🕺🕺🕺🥳🥳🥳
Anyone get in?
denied :(
Damn nef. I'm sorry to hear that
rejected
Sorry to hear that. Do they mention if it's rejection from uni too? Or just the program.
regular decision i’ll have to wait :”)
oh wait no
i didn’t get my decision yet
wish i applied earlier though
Did you apply for aid?
did anyone else get rejected from bs/md
Accepted! School of Nursing!
Ayyy, congratulation!
Ty!
congrats!!! 🫶🏼
Thank you!
congrats!!!
Tyyy!
rejected with a 2.4 uw and 950 sat 😔 😔 so unfair
smh
It's definitely yield protection. I'm sorry man
I hear back next week
good luck everyone!! ✨✨
nooo was this ed or ea
bruh ur stats r so good
rip
r ur ec's good
bro those stats are garuantted for case western bruh
ah
ez acceptance
smh case
oh is ee
see
maybe thats why?
still not a good reason unless it was vy bad
case accepts by university so it doesnt matter what major you put on the common app
they accept by uni
not by major
but yes with this
The essay? As in the one called "optional short answer"? Yes. But no loci
just got offered an interview
i’m accepted into a school i’d rather go to than case anyways idk if i’m gonna bother with an interview
but i also got offered that online interview whatever
yeah i just got that
helps demonstrated interest
i don’t think i’m gonna bother
yeah same, i got into uw madison w a full ride and id choose that over case so im not gonna do it lol
oh damn good shit
my top choice is ed2 so im waiting on that in a few weeks
the only school i’m into that i wouldn’t mind is OSU main campus
forgot to apply for those full ride scholarships though cause i thought i’d get into a better school
idk basically i have my safety/target choices set and im just waiting on my hard target and reach schools at this point
not so sure now though
i don’t even remember what case looks like
i wasn’t impressed though
i’ve visited so many cooler schools
bro
the business school 💀
they think they’re cool or some shit
nahhhh
it’s just a normal brick building with wacky architecture on the outside to try to act like they’re special
fr
Did anyone get an email for an interview
the q&a is starting in a few minutes and im so nervous even though i asked questions in advance
Rd?
yes
Is that the interview?
noo its just a q&a with current students!
Ah ok ty
i told myself id do di for case rd
and then i got into schools i like more
and now i cba to do shit for a school that deferred me fr
so I can't appeal if I got better aid offers or if I'm not satisfied with my aid?
It didn't outright say that, so I would assume you can appeal if you've gotten better aid offers or you're not able to afford even with the aid they offer.
did they send the interview request to everyone?
do merit scholarships count as financial aid
ye
bet
To some. They didn't send it to me probably because I've already had an interview.
did you do yours during EA
Yea
If I remember correctly did u apply ed2?
Yea, I filled out the deferral form as EDII so I can lock in an acceptance, hopefully
Luckily, I just got an acceptance to UIUC's engineering program, so if this doesn't go well I have a backup plan, but prior to that acceptance I didn't know what I was going to do with myself if I didn't get accepted to Case.
Good luck dude, Do you know roughly when it will come out?
I'm expecting it in the next few days, or the following Saturday
I submitted it a little over a week and a half ago, so I should know soon!
Thank you ❤️
If I got into UIUC engineering, does that bode well for my CWRU EDII app?
Every college is different. However, UIUC engineering is amazing and it shows that even if you didn't get into case western it doesn't impact your ability to become a very good engineer.
That's basically what someone told me
short answer yes in my opinion
EDII to case instead of UIUC?? Odds are you’d probably get in case but isn’t UIUC a better school, particularly for engineering?
Case has a nice feel tho
I'm applying EDII because of that feel and the Sears think[box] / lots of business opportunities.
I'm also afraid about cost with UIUC b/c oos
I should get decent aid from Case (I applied for fin aid) 🤞
Yeah it's crazy that case only has around 5,700 undergrads. I like a small environment
Oh okay makes sense then. CWRU is nice because it’s the best school in the whole area until you get to Pittsburgh. UIUC is also the best school in the area but the area is just cornfields
Literally. I can't with the flat plains and cornfields
I love the small environment as well. It's such a nice feel, especially for such a relatively good school.
I liked case but they only gave me a $30k scholarship and they’ve been raising COA like crazy. So it’d be like $55k/yr and only going up
$64100 tuition is absolutely insane
No school is worth that much
Not for the education. But for the connections perhaps
Especially bc I want to do finance
true
Which is the industry that still cares a ton about what school you went to
I would only pay that much for a school if I knew I'd be besties with industry CEOs and actual market leaders and such
I would get priced out by other people tho because that's too good of a guarantee
Harvard might be worth 80k a year but case certainly isn’t. But every single fucking school does the stupid $80k cost of attendance and then hands out “merit” scholarships like candy
It's actually so frustrating because getting into schools AND BEING ABLE TO AFFORD IT is a fucking lottery now
Yes. Mine is 87 ish without anything
I had to make a correction to that msg lmfao
Yup. I managed to get two tough OOS admits and but got deferred from Northeastern and Tulane. I had legacy at Tulane too
I certainly didn’t enjoy applying to 21 schools but I don’t know how else to play this game
Me either
Especially for my friends with above average, but not excellent stats, it is SO hard to stand out and get into even moderately good state schools (esp. if they're OOS)
There are too many good students and schools have not expanded enrollment to keep up. Especially at the top schools
It’s absurd that schools like Harvard or Princeton have the same or only marginally larger class size as they did back in like 1970
But 20x more students who want to go
Yup...
" If they expanded their student base, they would lose their competitive admissions status and then they would be less prestigious "
Surely it would help their mission of “equity” or “inclusion” to allow more qualified students to be included in the class 😭
HONEST
We should get the pitchforks out and protest 
should I call their finaid office and check?
These schools DGAF and never have. But I won’t be complaining if they admit me 🫢
I'd just appeal it and if they say "you can't appeal that," then there's your answer
how do you appeal?
I'm not entirely sure. I would look it up because I don't want to give you a half-assed, somewhat correct answer that could screw you over.
i didnt even do the essay lol
im expecting an L from case
For people who got rejected from PPSP, is it really "optional" to write the optional short answer question?
didnt apply there, but the optional questions are never actually optional
never
Just got into Case EDII
i just withdrew my rd app because i dont wanna go here lol
hope it opened up a spot for someone else, best of luck everyone & congrats to those admitted ❤️
Alan, thank you for being such a kind soul. You're gonna make someone else so happy by giving them that opportunity
congrats!!
Big W :)
Is there a CWRU '27 server?
(tell cwru to accept me too pls :) )
Congrats!
CONGRATS
thank you
congrats!!!
I'll put a good word in with the AOs when I appeal my fin aid
CONGRATSS
Y'all are so awesome, thank you for all the congratulations
Anyone know if there is a CWRU '27 admitted/class-of student server?
There's apps like Zee Me and Patio for incoming CWRU students. There is a server but it's lowkey dead rn... (I can DM if you want).
DM me the link, please. I can check out those apps. Those servers are usually dead early on b/c there isn't much going on for admissions/the school. I'm in the NU '27 server and it's just dead because there isn't much to talk about.
Could u dm me also; thanks
How’s it going in Ohio guys?
Aweee I’m sorry😢 hopefully things turn out for the best🙌🙌
tyy
is the zee me active?
For mid year reports do they want us to send it through common app?
By us I mean the counselors
Hello! My friend is planning to apply to case’s pre professional scholars program, did anyone here apply and have any tips?
yea
my school uses naviance for sending transcirpts
I applied and my advice is good luck bc 0.6% acceptance lol
i got rejected
yeah same
it's actually 0.35-0.65% lol
so yeah
let me pull up the stats
lmao all of the BSMD programs are <2% acceptance
baylor is 0.1% iirc
6/~6000
My counselor did through email
Is it just for pre-professional scholarship or RD?
PPSP obv
it says it right there lol
Sorry for the late response but it’s sort of inactive at the moment but I’d recommend you to join either ways coz you’ll never know what will happen lol
ok
hello
does anyone know how i would go about changing my financial aid intent for case western from Yes to No?
I have no idea how to do it, I emailed my AO twice because i got an email about missing application materials.. so im worried
Emailing your AO is the right move
If they have a separate finaid office, you could email them too
is case western one of those colleges that make your financial aid package based on the admissions offices decision or is it just separate and the fin aid office knows nothing abt whether youre in or or not?
It’s separate
anybody know what the decision would be released? (previous years will help)
It’s March 18 confirmed
Oh that’s so early I’m scared
completely forgot to show any demonstrated interest the moment i got into a school thats not named case western
should i even bother its already march
idt id wanna pay their tuition anyways but idk
bruh u dont need any DI for case
i literally applied the day of the deadline cuz no essay + they emailed me a fee waiver
got in without knowing which state the college even is in
😭😭
It depends though. It certainly helps
If you're a 1580 / 4.0 student, you probably want to show interest so you don't get yield protected\
and if you're a 1300 / 3.5 student, you want to show interest so they're willing to accept you
me during ea 💀 i hope st least
but there’s like 0 reason for me to ever go case over what i’ve gotten alr
