yeah

#

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

sturdy wave
#

the thing is

#

my school's naviance scattergram shows upper 1500 acceptances

#

I don't see yield protection reflected

slim atlas
#

welp idk

#

fuck case

#

didnt wanna go to ohio anyways 😤

#

(still take me rd)

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!

daring merlin
#

Thats possible

#

But in my case, i wasnt yield protected

#

Which im shocked at

urban oyster
#

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

Just checked

We need to form a pact with all applicants

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

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?

😭

#

maybe ask one of the other counselors at ur school

#

even tho they arent urs

echo robin
#

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

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

when do i sendthe case defer update in?

vernal vine
high axle
#

💀 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

vernal vine
#

More applicants = more people to reject = lower acceptance rate = higher ranking

high axle
#

More money I see

sick crow
#

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

have a friend who got in uchicago ea but cwru defer 💀

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

fallen fox
timid pier
#

that's true

#

do whatever you feel is best for you

late fjord
#

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

modest kernel
#

Idk

fallen fox
#

This is why Case deferred most of us because we are never interested

for the deferred optional essay

#

how long should it be?

fallen fox
rocky vine
#

really?

#

i didnt see a word limit

fallen fox
#

theres no word limit

#

but u dont want to write too much

rocky vine
#

ye

#

how much are yall planning to write?

sick crow
# fallen fox 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.

rocky vine
#

ye

#

i think i might aim for 300 ish or moer

slim atlas
#

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 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? 😦

rocky vine
#

rip

#

nope

#

case just knows u wont go cuz of ur high scores so to protect their yeild rate, they rejected u

olive sundial
rocky vine
#

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

rocky vine
#

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

clever mason
rocky vine
#

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

#

we'll get in somewhere nice dw

rocky vine
#

my stats are worse than yall lol

#

but smh i got deferred 🙂

daring merlin
#

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

anyone know when the application update is actually due?

simple jackal
#

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 😭

mellow kernel
simple jackal
#

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 ✋🏼😔

urban oyster

Got my acceptance package in the mail 😄

sick crow
sick crow
simple jackal
#

oh really???

sick crow
#

Yea

#

That's why I feel comfortable EDing

simple jackal
#

do you just like

sick crow
#

You just don't enroll. You should send an email, but they're not going to be a bitch about it

simple jackal
#

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 😭

sick crow
#

I take that back. You ideally should send an email explaining the situation

sick crow
simple jackal
#

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

sick crow
#

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.

simple jackal
#

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?

that yield protection is kinda stupid

rocky vine
#

Im doing it to hurt their yeild rate cuz they deferred me 🙂

sick crow
#

What are y'all writing about for the deferral "Why Case?" essay?

slim atlas
#

no clue havent started 💀

#

will do it this wknd prob

gritty kelp
#

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)

slim atlas
#

so like

#

its def just lack of demonstrated interest or yield

gritty kelp
#

he said earlier they dont do yield

slim atlas
#

also no point in loci's for case cuz the form is basically a loci right

slim atlas
#

but case has historically an insanely low yield rate so 😭

gritty kelp
#

true

clear tree
#

apparently these are the avg stats for admitted applicants this cycle

gritty kelp
slim atlas
#

how many defers total though

gritty kelp
#

seems like they are avoiding saying that

slim atlas
#

also i gotta start attending this shit to boost my di 😭 😭

gritty kelp
#

I put in a question

clear tree
green grove
#

im starting to think yield protection is a shared delusion we are all experiencing

gritty kelp
#

i agree

#

id say unless you are literally 4.0 1600 you probably didnt get yielded

#

based on this slide

high axle
#

lmao

high axle
#

he prob avoided that shit

slim atlas
#

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

gritty kelp
#

he just confirmed no LOCI

#

yeah he didnt answer the 'how many deferrals' question

sick crow
#

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?

Sadly i’d say no

Cuz ea rate = ed for case

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

Surprising thing is theres more male + vietnam is ranked #2 on top int students 🤯

glass warren
#

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

sick crow
#

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.

glass warren
#

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

sick crow

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.

how long should the optional deferral essay be?

The one where on the same page you choose rd or ed2?

rocky vine

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

ah alr

so like less than 100 words?

idek what to write abt 🥲

doing research rn

clever mason
#

are you pre med?

#

u can talk about their rainbow hospital program thing

sick crow
# rocky vine idek what to write abt 🥲

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.

analog dove
#

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.

Idk why they're calling it the loci

#

Thanks. I was getting nervous if I missed something.

sick crow
#

You're chillin man

slim atlas
#

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

sick crow
#

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

slim atlas
#

yaeh

#

idk if ill make it that long

#

ig it shows a lot of interest

sick crow
#

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

slim atlas
#

tbh the propt is generic

#

im j reusing a supp and changing it to case

#

and its alr at like 500

sick crow
#

When I'm done writing mine, will one of y'all look at it and peer edit it?

analog dove
#

Sure. I submitted mine on Jan 6 and ever since I've been refreshing my screen everyday in hopes of a decision result. 😦

sick crow
#

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

analog dove
#

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

sick crow
slim atlas
#

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"

also indy > ohio

#

not much of a diff

sick crow
#

Cleveland is much better than Indianapolis though

#

Also, it is right on Erie

grave kindle
#

i think purdue is better at engineering is better than case tho

#

so for that reason, i'm out

sick crow
grave kindle
#

case is #32 in EE

#

purdue is #11 in EE

#

i'm also ECE at purdue so it's more worth it

sick crow
#

Yea, so then it makes sense for you

slim atlas
#

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

sick crow
slim atlas
#

ig

#

its like the category

#

i wont talk about grades cuz in mid year

#

its just an awards section no?

sick crow
#

Mostly

slim atlas
#

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

sick crow
#

Talk about that

slim atlas
#

kk

sick crow
#

What is it, if you don't mind sharing?

slim atlas
#

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

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?

sick crow

#

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

You didn't "under apply"

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.

simple jackal

they didnt ask me for a mid year report coolblush

#

i had all of my college apps done by like mid december so

analog dove
#

me too. Did you apply to northeasten?

#

or nyu?

simple jackal
#

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

analog dove
#

go to any rd school and check uploaded materials. Your school will have sent the mid year

simple jackal
#

like half of them

analog dove
#

No shame in that. My ecs suck

simple jackal
#

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

analog dove
#

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

simple jackal
#

maybe the 2 week thing is just like...an estimate or something ohgod

#

maybe our decisions will be out around the same time as ppsp like that woman's daughter

#

omg

#

or man

analog dove
#

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 ... 🤨 😱

if i don’t have a decision by the time nine’s out, i’ll probably email them to check

yeah we just call it georgia tech here because tech = michigan tech for us

case seems like a good school but i heard the weather was pretty bad and i typically dislike the cold

they gave me a lot of fin aid but idk if i could afford it

fallow agate

yeah i think they give financial aid to most people but it's still costly

clever mason
#

yeah exactlyyy

#

they expect me to pay half of my parents yearly income 😭😭

#

and it doesn’t cover school expenses / flights during vacations etc

fallow agate

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

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 submitted it a little over a week and a half ago, so I should know soon!

u got this

sick crow
#

Thank you ❤️

sick crow
#

If I got into UIUC engineering, does that bode well for my CWRU EDII app?

analog dove
#

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

urban oyster
#

Case has a nice feel tho

sick crow
#

I'm also afraid about cost with UIUC b/c oos

#

I should get decent aid from Case (I applied for fin aid) 🤞

analog dove
#

Yeah it's crazy that case only has around 5,700 undergrads. I like a small environment

urban oyster
#

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

sick crow
sick crow
urban oyster
#

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

analog dove
#

No school is worth that much

urban oyster
#

Not for the education. But for the connections perhaps

#

Especially bc I want to do finance

analog dove
#

true

urban oyster
#

Which is the industry that still cares a ton about what school you went to

sick crow
#

I would get priced out by other people tho because that's too good of a guarantee

urban oyster
#

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

sick crow
#

It's actually so frustrating because getting into schools AND BEING ABLE TO AFFORD IT is a fucking lottery now

analog dove
#

Yes. Mine is 87 ish without anything

sick crow
#

I had to make a correction to that msg lmfao

urban oyster
#

I certainly didn’t enjoy applying to 21 schools but I don’t know how else to play this game

sick crow
#

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)

urban oyster
#

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

sick crow
#

Yup...

#

" If they expanded their student base, they would lose their competitive admissions status and then they would be less prestigious "

urban oyster
#

Surely it would help their mission of “equity” or “inclusion” to allow more qualified students to be included in the class 😭

sick crow
#

HONEST

urban oyster
#

Put the 40 fucking billion dollars to use

#

But nah

sick crow
#

We should get the pitchforks out and protest angrysad

These schools DGAF and never have. But I won’t be complaining if they admit me 🫢

how do you appeal?

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

urban oyster
#

If they have a separate finaid office, you could email them too

echo robin
#

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?

anybody know what the decision would be released? (previous years will help)

should i even bother its already march

idt id wanna pay their tuition anyways but idk

daring merlin
#

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

#

😭😭

urban oyster
#

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

slim atlas

but there’s like 0 reason for me to ever go case over what i’ve gotten alr
