#case western? (2022-2023)
1 messages · Page 6 of 1
ouch... bro cwru gave me the biggest scholarship ever and idk why everyone else got so little
nice
how much did u get?
How much?
71k
That ain’t all merit is it?
I just realized
well some of it was federal
case western is basically downselling using merit scholarships
but they gave me way over 50k
how much did u get for ur grants
that's the term
let me pull it up
Tuition discounting
ye that's basically downselling
sneaky case
I'm not falling for their tricks
Yeah I have a 0 EFC
Maybe they just liked that I'm OOS and I have decent (?) stats
32 ACT isn't too attractive for a top school.
isnt grant purely needs?
did u submit act ?
Yes.
Not sure why I got so much but it's cool
they made a mistake 💀
Is it ur top choice rn?
The inferior UW
Jeez
Wyoming is where it’s at
Give that aid to me
ngl i applied to case western on a whim, the day of their deadline in like, 2 minutes.
Insane
nahhhhh
Ngl i applied case western because it had no essay
i applied on the last day bc no sups lol
Jkjk, Wisco
^
literally no essay, that's why i applied, i was like why not
I had no pure knowledge of case western except watching people get waitlisted on their college reaction videoss
I applied to every school except Tulane and Vanderbilt on the last day
and no fee since i'm low income
Lmfao
All 21 of them
oh gosh
21 schools?!
that's actually crazy.
Kinda but also it feels like a good number
one was a troll though
Filled my common app + MIT
Basically applying to a ton is the best way to have a chance at a top school
But luck is only a factor if you’re already qualified
just be yourself and thats enough
Like 1.4k
holy shit
BRO
thats insane
It’s not that much in the scheme of things. If school is 20-80k a year
Having that many more chances to get a better school or a school with a better scholarship is worth it
Honestly would have paid it myself if my parents didn’t because I really believe it’s worth it
If you think of it like that ig that’s true
But that guy that applied to 42 schools tho ☠️
If you just apply to every school with a fee waiver it wouldn’t be too bad
If I had space in my common app, I would have applied to fordham and washu because they had fee waivers
Also, some schools just give them to you if you ask and say you need one
Regardless of whether you officially qualify
I had a fee waiver too.
Exactly
My mom is my counselor so I literally could have gotten a common app-wide fee waiver
The only reason I applied to Case was the fee waiver lol
But that would be unethical because I don’t need them and don’t qualify. Also it would look bad to the schools that noticed I used a few waiver
I don't think colleges care that much honestly, they have a designated budget for it.
But to use a fee waiver and then not get finaid 😬
1.2k on apps
😐
570 💀 💀
the grant is based off financial needs right?
yeah
Truly a bay area moment
did they forgot a zero in ur cwru grant 😭😭 god damn
What is downselling? What is the trick? Sorry I'm a little slow
they're lowering the price to make it seem like a good deal to try to trick you into going to case and committing
If they lower it isn't it a good deal tho?
That's what they want you to think
Theyre trying to hook you into 50k a year for what's worth 30k only
So they artificially inflate the price and choose their own profit margin…?
So why are they still upping tuition by percents above national average 
I see. How much does cwru up tuition/total cost per year? If it's a lot we gon hav some problems 🤨
90k
A little over 85k total costs, including personal expenses
Coa
I think i worded the question wrong. If I paid 50k this year, how much would I have to pay next year? The same amount or is it a lot higher?
I heard the prices generally go up by a couple thousand
Every year
Inflation would cause prices to go up. You can always go to the financial aid office to negotiate your package for the following year
Ok thanks
it's a 5% increase in tuition every year
100k COA anyone?
I'd expect to see that within 3 years at USC
And 100k direct billed costs within 5 years
The increases have averaged 4%-5% a year while inflation was only 2% and no one did anything to stop it
is this the rate for cwru? also hwo'd u find
standard rate for schools. also yes it is case's rate
they have also had sudden increases (from what i can see) due to a new dean
aight
just realised that too lol
application fee
prob wasted alot
400 alr for freaking UC lol
How likely is it to get off the wl if i have solid stats
And a good loci
😭😭
Bruh i swear they wled me cuz i showed no interest
I didnt show interest at all
Like none
And my stats are pretty mid
Maybe you got yielded
purely looking at the cds
im sorry if i say this
but the chance isn't neccessary the highest
however, i'd say if u say that u will commit, they'll prob admit u (write a loci like u got deferred)
but as husky alr said
i also got deferred from ea but accepted in rd
i didnt write a loci or anything
i just said, ye but app was enough
given that ur stats and stuff are prob better than mine, i think u might get in :>
nevertheless, i think u'll be happy where ever u go for college :>
I mean i feel like my stats
R sufficien
I just showed no interest and didnt interview
But i also think thats a crappy reason to waitlist someone
Unless case does that
Valid
case yield protect so
Idk i have like 35 act, 3.75 uw, solid ecs
u prob got yield protected lol
I did a good loci
ye thats way above case level
Bro
I just want an accept i have no accepts other than my strict instate safeties
😭😭
😭
Case fuck u
ic ic
ye
btw when do wl usually get their results?
like in 2 weeks after they got wl?
Depends on school
Some schools keep u there until august
Case hasnt released waitlist form yet tho
Theyll release like apr 9 i think they said
wow
gl nevertheless
ur stats are amazing so u prob get in some other schools
dw just yet lol
what schools did u apply to?
I need to update the dates
damn
its a very competitive list lol
i cant say much tho
its a roulette
my stats + grades are hella shitty
like a got a 31/45 IB 💀 , 4A* + 4A for IGCSE (basically grade 9+10), amazing ECs, great essays and prob mid recs
so far i smh got into wake forest and case 💀
so i think its just luck
(got rejected from many top publics so far tho: LA, davis, san diego, irvine, uva, uiuc)
and duke for my ed
overall just dw
I swear if I get taken off of the waitlist bc their email ends up in my spam
😭
lol
Eyo apparently if you express interest in spring admissions you have a better chance of getting in
what does that mean
like
say youll take delayed admission?
if u get wled does that mean no aid/schollys
No like they give you all of your financial info
Oh
So you can drop out of the waitlist if you can’t afford it
It’s all yield rate games
How they gon give u merit if they dont want u tho
Weird af
Based on “holistic” evaluation
Would be waxk if they give merit schollys out without having a spot for u
But yeah i mean ive heard case is good w giving money
Think it’s bc if they do it the other way, then students can’t enroll due to financial issues, so by doing it this way they can boost yield
Cause everyone that stays on the waitlist knows that they can pay
One way or another
Valid
Case gives you decent aid up to around 40k in merit (Getting max merit is rare, but does happen). Need-based is sometimes hit-or-miss.
Gosh darn I have to do the stupid demonstrated interest thing again
man fuck case
yes there is a discord and patio
back in the DI hellhole
friends on the waitlist i hope one of yall take my spot good luck
Fr
I wrote a whole essay
And added all my ec and award updates
And then emailed a course upsate to bob
Where?
SAME. my essay was lowkey fire idk why they waitlisted me
got a link to the disc?
i cant just add u to it but you have to link ur case email to ur discord
and then youll have access
through -> Explore Public Servers -> Student Hub -> Join Hub
@fallow moat @steady trout
As in the email I applied with?
Do you get it after u commit?
yea cuz i cant find it either
it's just ur [email protected]
I can help anyone through the process if confused.
I don't believe so, you should just have access to it even before you commit
Displayed interest lacking? Did u interview
Wait how do I get access to the email?
Is password same as the password for portal?
Ye, so you can just go to case.edu, open the side bar and look for Webmail at the bottom. Click Webmail and then use your NetID and passphrase to get into your email. From there, you will have access to your Google account. You can use that email to access the Case Western Reserve University student huh on Discord.
yes
Yeah but my internet cut out at the start of it and it was kind of a mess
Legit the instant I joined the construction ppl decided to screw me over
got it should i just join the cwru '27 one
Yes
really?
I'm not sure if they do, but they might
I have no clue why. I'm sure it's just a result of the case NetID being the same as the gmail header
It's just your account activation
if you can sign into your portal you've already done it
Oh
36k/yr for cwru, worth?
better than my 57k 💀
im just shocked college can be so expensive
86k/yr at full price like who can afford that
imagine if i got no merit bro
where else did u get into
anywhere with better aid?
out of state only here and osu
osu is more expensive
i live in alabama but idk if i want to stay there
if you can afford it yes cwru is it
if you can handle their academic rigor and
shit like that
lol i wonder how academically rigorous case can be
if its on the higher end then thats good
rip my in state coa is 24k
my other option looks to be about 22k
god damn it why did i have to get rejected from nmsqt finalist
is anyone going go their waitlist session thing
no way
Is 11k a year worth it
I don’t know bro :(((
im finna commit soon with 24k/yr
Icic
where else did u get into
I’m still waiting for 3 more schools
Got waitlisted at middlebury, waiting for wustl, usc, and NYU
Oh only applied 5 skls?
im in korea rn
Ooh Icic
i mean
i assume u applied to
uo and osu?
i think that 11k (if you can afford it) at case western is pretty worth
Icic
Yeaaaaa
I mean….. I was looking forward to just 5k a year…. I don’t want any debt after grad u know :((
But yea, imma wait and I’ll apply for like appeal or something to see if I can get more aid…
yeah fr lol COA is 86k
CWRU is 52k for me and it’s one of my cheaper options rn
better than UCLA 71k/yr
Idk I’m waiting for 7 other colleges and UT appeal
oos?
Yes
man thats rough
yeah it’s rly sad that I’m prob not going bc it’s so expensive lmfao
The grind never stops, respect 😤
do they send you a notif before any of the online sessions?
Some yeah
They sent a waitlist email out yesterday or two days ago
So i registered for a wl session and an info session
did you get a scholarship
or is it still expsenive with
not to ucla
anything notable from the info session? i signed up for the one on april
he says to respond
to the weekly emails
💀
like

Lmao they read it?
i mean theyd know if u respond
LMFAO
IKR
HE LIED AND SAID TOURS ARENT FOR THEM TO SEE OUR INTEREST
BYE
FUCK U BOB
(said with love please accept me)
ALBERTO DID US DIRTY
BOB'S INNOCENT IT WAS ALL ALBERTO
I'm sorry but I'm actually the Dean. I've been tracking the students who have great potential to fit into our school atmosphere but it seems like we have eliminated one student from the waitlist. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Bob
Alibi,
Please keep in mind that I am always "the proof". Any behavior out of these expectations will either result in rescission of admission or face the expulsion from the waiting list. Let's not make it two today.
Sincerely,
Bob
P.S. You guys aren't demonstrating enough interest.
Dear Alibi,
Homie u rich. We've seen your FAFSA. You can afford us becuase no cost is too high for an education.
Sincerely,
Bob
better than my 80k for nu
The variance in their scholarship/grant offers is insane.
That’s basically every school lol
Do we know the acceptance rate for this year?
probably around 20-25%
good for bme idk about others
pretty much anything medical/health related cwru is really good
does case send mail to admitted students ?
also does the amount of merit money given have any correlation with how much case wants you im just curious
do you know if premed or bme is better at case? considering both pathways
not sure both good
Their mech Eng aero Eng are solid
how about data analysis
is there a cwru discord
yea
Can you drop a link to it please? Thank you 
You must accept the decision to get it?
how do i make a cwru email account
sorry if im a bit slow
do i ahve to accept the offer to get an email account?
nah ur good
do u see ur
cwru network id
nah
nah not really
ah cool ty for helping me out
I don’t know why Reddit said cwru admit people also base on their interest. Like people said they got rejected just because they unsubscribed… (but I unsubscribed the mailing list after I applied on common app…) 
Did they waitlist you
i think i got the opposite of yield protected
bc i did not show much demonstrated interest

I think I got admitted bc of my essay
I didn’t submit any SAT or APs scores cuz they’re not good
Your personality was just better 💪💪
doxxing urself is crazy
thats so fucking funnny 💀 💀
holy shit
the meatriding is crazy
putting your id and writing an email type chat on zoom is funny asf
respect ig
bro is riding his loci on zoom 💀
bro is tryna get into case western through a different route 💀
does case send a acceptance package ?
Even my college counselors said this and I just didn’t apply to it for the EA round because of I didn’t show any demonstrated interest
Applied RD a day after they were due because they extended my deadline with no demonstrated interest and I got in
Multiple friends with a similar story
Cleveland museum of art is sick
Visited recently
Cleveland downtown is way better than Columbus downtown
actually stuff to do and not completely dead
Ooh nice
Rock and roll hall of fame is also really cool but I haven’t been there for a while
The parts of case that I’ve seen kinda sprawl into the city
I just stumbled across the campus while trying to find a pizza place near the history museum
case's campus is really nice
and there are a good amount of food right next to campus
and a bunch of museums which are really nice
I’m not looking forward party but hopefully there’ll be lots of good food places or cafes

the food is ok
the chinatown isnt the best but they do have a few chinese supermarkets that are sufficient
is it easy to transfer out of case
Cwru gonna be sad when they hear that 
Want me to ask Bob for you?
Wait what? When you join the coop program they substitute your scholarship with the coop salary since you get paid from the companies?? Can anyone confirm this?
dont you not pay tuition during a conop?
oh yay they sent my financial aid if I get off the waitlist
oh my fucking god this is robbery
nah bruh they snuck “campus employment” in there
so glad they gave me 3360 🥰
same lmaoo. if they were gonna give me such a big scholarship why not admit me. smh
Yo what
why do they even have a $3360 grant that’s like a solid 5% of their tuition
so glad they want me to only pay 83k a year instead of 86k tbh
how/where do you see this
they emailed me today
low income gang
so is this a good sign of getting off waitlist or no 🥲
i dont think i applied for need based
did you get the email too?
i didnt no
ik i got 30k/yr in my admission but i wanna know it like broken down how it is there
i just got sent scholly as well
(didnt submit any finaid docs)
27k per year
just university scholarship
are you going to commute?
im on waitlist
me too
not sure why they sent us potential financial aid, i haven’t had other schools that waitlisted me do this
did u not get an aid email
no i didnt lmao
its so you decide if u stay on wl
if u cant pay then u wont stay
i just know i got that 27k year thing
but i wanna know how its broken down like in the email
same ong
i didnt even apply for aid
did u get in or waitlisted
😭
I got 3k ur good 💀
wled
im not getting off the waitlist... i dont think they wanna give me 47k yr
zamn
same 💀
how many people do they normally take off waitlist?
past two years it was like 7%
honestly not horrible
like still bad but ig there is still a chance
not every accepts a spot ye
once they see my final transcript it’s goodbye to me LOL
that’s offered not accepted
i see
yeah it should be around 7%
same 
the way i literally got a concussion last week and my ap bio grade dropped to a 43 because i was out💀
they cant rescind u for a single C right !?!
For those complaining about a $3k cwru grant:
where do u see that omg
im sure some of you have seen me send this already but its still funny (i think)
case can i please see financial info
57k is outrageous
it’s crazy how id pay less going here than going to a state school like 😭
ok but u got nnearly 30k in uni scholly
😭
wait there’s a $570 grant that’s actually hilarious
at least u got the 30k tho
where do you see this btw
yeah thats what im wondering cause theres like nothing on the portal lmao
nah it’s only there if u got accepted
womp
if u got accepted idk where it is because I did not
Scroll down all the way in status update page and u might see it
@jovial plover
bro has no finance
i mean ik i got the 27 unviersity scholarship but like i wanna know what else!
its ok whatever
why do they send wl applicants financial aid info?
to see if they wannA STill stay on the list ig
if u cant pay why would u stay on the wl
i didn’t apply for need and still got the email
yeah me neither
i didnt submit any docs
27k
its a sign we were all yield protected 🤩 /j
yep i’m definitely getting my grade up
she just put in zeros for assignments i didnt even have 😭
Sending scholarships to kids on the WL shows what a joke all these “scholarships” are
If every mfer gets a scholarship it’s not actually a scholarship
85% of students get some scholly
58k cost ☹️☹️ 88k cost - 30k scholarship 😃😃
fr
anyone gone on an admitted students day
Is the university scholarship per year or total?
per year
^
Thanks!
For waitlist, any drawback for choosing the "I wish to remain on the waitlist. Case Western Reserve University is my top choice." option even if it's not
besides me feeling bad abt it
i didnt get shit bro tf
i did ea
So I'm considering Case Western because they have a lot of joint degrees, curious to know about any and all drawbacks about CWRU lol
How abt RD
i'm pretty impressed with their package too lol
It'll probably come to you soon
Fr like why are there two options that do the same thing
i didnt get shit
i pressed top choice even though i'm going to OSU lol
does anyone know when you get the schedule for admitted students program (like how many days before)
wdym
They have many tours going on right now, which you can find on the admitted students page
whatever this one is
it says u can like
customize ur schedule but they send it to you soon
Ohhh yeah they'll probably release that soon. It's also more of just a general calendar I think, cause you can explore either one school or all of them depending on your intersets
after all they're an open-door school
oh gotcha thanks
I meant do they send any admission packages for RD admitted?
What did u get
: D
I just commited few days ago
its so cool wtf
i just got it
i got a bag the laniard, carabiner, mini stapler, pamhplet
i have officially took my name off the waitlist. good luck to everyone!
thanks!! congrats on vanderbilt!!
thank you!
They have a nice acceptance package
whats on it
Does case western have grade deflation at all?
i jut committed
Congrats!
What were some of your other options that you were considering, if you don’t mind me asking?
they gave me some good money, its located in a city, also they have a low student to teacher ratio. Even though they are a small school i can get my experiental learning done
Also the school is hard so I think that will take the best outta me
sounds corny asf
valid
i want my acceptance package from Case !!
should be a committed package smfh
i got mine today it's cute
it would be interesting to see them guessing our t-shirt sizes
iss there an admitted students discord?
are u west coast
tx
whens the acceptance rate coming out
@carmine wing did you get a lot of aid
Yeah i got like 55k aid
That’s pretty nice
Ur everywhere

I did apply to case but forgot to send my recs to them 🤡
woah i just got the cwru admit pkg thingy and they gave like a ton of stuff lol
Lanyard
Bag
Map
man i didnt get shit
me neither
i dont think so
yea but its surprisingly expensive
and this is with an 11k scholarship
and in-state
btw why are you choosing cwru over getech
i didnt get lots of money from them
i mean what am i expecting from a public
shoulda known this before
CWRU is a solid school
yeah
A tad more than that lol
Smaller class sizes, 9:1 student to teacher ratio
what do u guys think are the perks of cwru
Alright, lets begin this. I actually created an account for this post. I want to give future students the information that I wish I had. (Heres some background on me, skip to pros and cons of Case if you would like). Case Western Reserve University (referred to as “Case”) was not my dream school. Frankly, it was not even on my radar. I received ...
i was just reading
Me too and I’m probably committing
Initially I mentally crossed out anywhere cold because I hate the cold with a passion (grew up in socal)
eh its not that bad
bring some gloves and a jacket ull be chillin
same
Hey guys !
So all th current CWRU students
How much do you make per month working solely from student jobs and which jobs do you believe are th best
Also for CWRU students, I was wondering how competitive internships/opportunities are (for premed)?
omg send a pic of the acceptance package i’m so curious
Is there an admitted students discord for cwru or anything
^
theres a CWRU discord hub with a 2027 server
do they give you a school email after you commit
wont let me join the hub without it rip
ooh tyty
nice I got the same thing but a different picture on my VIP pass thing lmao
Anyone that got waitlisted send in a LOCIyet?
I alr sent 1 when I got deferred so I’m tryna gauge when to send it
The mini stapler was cool
Just a key chain tht u can prob strap onto your wrist
Guys, I'm on the waitlist at CWRU and I need the decision to come out before May cuz of other schools. Is there a way that I can 'rush' the admission officers or do I just wait?
wdym cuz of other schools? you need to commit to a school before may 1 anyway, as there are no guarantees for waitlist offers. admission officers will only know how many people they can admit off the waitlist after people have committed by may 1
yeah for waitlists ur supposed to commit to a school by may 1, then if ur accepted off of the waitlist afterwards then you tell ur original school that ur not going
you just don’t get your admission deposit back
Omg is this the commitment package?
I don’t think so
They just send it to you as well as the admission package
(I could be wrong)
Anyone pulling up to admitted students tmw 🙏
I don’t think so lol : D I’ll be a bit sad if it’s just cards
did you commit yet
nooo I’m visiting on Friday
Yeah
whats your choices right now
UCLA (71k/yr) CWRU (52k/yr) tamu (32k/yr + death by cult)
bro they’re all 20k off from eachother
it’s so annoying
like ugh
I want UCLA so bad
SO BAD
yeah but like
NO I WISH
then lets go to tamu
yes
I’m gonna fucking die if I go there
than both
tamu matriculation rates are shit
look at this
ok well I’m doing physics pre med
so UCLA is better for that combo
What is that
can I visit it
why is it a fucking rectangle
yeah I like the windows
where else did u get in
i mean thing is for case you can chill
we're not finding dorms till late may
classes reg starts like late august
lemme check again
Nvm
but i found this
does calling the school make my waitlist decision come faster?
Nope
if any of you case mfs are gonna be there tmrw lmk 🙏🙏
going next week
0% chance it comes before 4/27
aye i’m here
Me too!! I’m on a tour lol
ooh yay i’m about to go on one
LMAO I’m in the place where they leave rn haha
ooh ya it was actually
Got a pack of cards
Not actual cards
But card like cardboard thingies with pictures on front and event/activity on back
Yeaaa is this one
i hope one of yall take my spot 👋
🫡 May your journey go well! Where u headed?
uc berkeley 😄
Damnn
Wow nice! 👌
ty <3
at Case? I don't think they have that (altho, lots of science is taught by professors from their med school 😏 )
yeah oops I misremembered lol
is there a chance of being admitted off the waitlist before may?
also can we see the financial aid offer on our portal or was it just that one email 😭
Y'all think cwru will move up in rankings this year?
Supposedly their acceptance rate was 23% this year
was literally about to ask the same thint, was wondering what the rate was this year
source?
ah gotcha
Wasn’t it 25 last year
think it was 27 if you look at the CDS
does anyone know how bad your grades have to be for case to rescind
i think youre fine if its 1 class thats like a C
overall grade not a marking period or semester*
they accepted me off RD with 2 C+ midterms
Wtf?
it was econ cut me some slack 😭
You commiting?
most likely
what if i have 2 Cs rest are As
3.3 uw 3.8 w
senioritis is hitting hard
i heard ucla rescinds those with 2 Cs so im worried other schools might do the same
idk i've heard as long as u dont fail literally every class ur fine
i didnt apply for need-based, i got 27k per year for merit
dude the merit stuff is so goofy
They pick the most specific numbers
I got 25k and one of my friends for 26.5k 😭
Idk how they decide who’s worth 1000 more
yeah they are so goofy w their numbers
i actualt emailed them recently
cause i got 32k somewhere
gonna ask if they can magch
I don’t even know why they gave me aid
Don’t even need it
Can you ask to get your aid decreased
To increases chances of admission
i dont think that’d help w admission
think they’re independent of each other when deciding
Good to hear it’s not an NYU situation
damn nyu is like that lmao?
you’re fine with paying $87k/yr?
No but I rly don’t need 55k
I’d be fine with paying 60k
I’d be transferring to UMD in a year or two anyways
LOL
I mean free money idk
I’m appealing for more aid tryna gaslight them
I think they gave it to me bc my brothers in college but they don’t know that we’re not paying for his tuition and stuff
Ion know why else
whens the acceptance rate stats coming out
U going from case to umd ?
is that bad?
Major ?
U going in as sophomore or freshman ?
junior
i alr got in
but ion think it's worth the 60k for undergrad
would rather explore other schools
also they have a high accept
60k where ?
umd
They have increased their tuitions
if it's 60k for lower division then i want to go somewhere else then come back for upper div
idk
60k is pretty standard
isnt it?
Remember it’s state school
Case - pvt school.
Oos for me also
do what im doing
U did case 2 years ? Cs
personally, I dont want an engineering degree or letters of science degree. I just want a program that allows you to take a crap ton of cs classes
what im gonna do
