[lunar vessel]

Praying I get into a good dorm hall 🙏

[empty mirage]

which one are you trying to dorm in?

[lunar vessel]

Ideally pioneer. I'd be really happy with 17th or Sanford.

[elder timber]

GUYS I GOT INTO MINNESOTA COMUPTER ENGINEERING LAST SECOND

[onyx trout]

No idea what happens for non-US applicants

[hard lantern]

that's not what i meant

non-national scholarships as in all teh scholarships that aren't the one scholarship called the natl scholarship

[onyx trout]

I guess I don't know. We got multiple letters separately for each scholarship

[glass tapir]

how does it work?

like

do you have to apply for a dorm

[hard lantern]

yeah, like months ago lol

superblock fills up hella quick

[glass tapir]

shiiii

how do they decide?

[hard lantern]

fcfs

basically whoever submits first is more likely to get their pic, they go submission date -> prefs -> question answers

iirc

[analog vigil]

is umn undergrad with a scholarship in comp sci more worth usc

i wanna become a game artist but im also thinking of a more practical route in life

comp sci is not rlly my passion tho but usc kinda expensiv but usc was my dream school

i got admitted to the college of science and engineering so im not even sure if i can get into comp sci

[empty mirage]

i think cost is a huge factor for college and UMN is still a really good school. it might not be as prestigious (or warm) as USC, but if you have a good scholarship, i would take it.

[glass tapir]

wait

im confused

if u get admitted to college of engineering, ur still not in conmp sci?

[analog vigil]

idk rlly :0 u get admitted to the college and then u pick ur major?

i dont think they admit by majors

[empty mirage]

i mean i'm turning down washu to go to umn because of scholarship but i think cse is still highly regarded

and yeah im pretty sure you won't have trouble getting into cs

but if you can make usc work go for it

[analog vigil]

did u get into the honors?

[empty mirage]

lol no

idk how i didnt but i am oos so that might have been why

did you get in?

[glass tapir]

What’s the point of honors

Like I get it’s prestige and stuff

But I feel like it’s gonna be a ton more work with not much reward

I took top level classes throughout HS and it was just so much work. All for no reward. Just feel like I might not wanna do the same in university and destroy my college years with stress

[hard lantern]

increased research and it's something you tack on for grad school, if you want a masters it provides a ton that helps in admissions

[analog vigil]

fair points

idk rlly i wanna make money in the future and umns good for cs but the futures unstable yk with all this ai stuff

what do yall thinj

i was thinking that since whatever i choose will be doomed im thinkin about just doing what i want

[empty mirage]

are there any active umn GC on snap or insta? i’ve joined one but it’s super dead 😭

[lunar vessel]

Start a discord 😈

[glass tapir]

does UMN normally give out scholarshiops

[night spear]

Is there like a umn cs discord

[night spear]

If u find 1 can u send

[elder timber]

Yea send me to a discord too

[empty mirage]

haven’t found one yet- but ilyk

[night spear]

Are u cs?

[empty mirage]

CLA yea

[onyx trout]

If you're doing honors, you can choose honors housing by May 1st and still get it. It's Middlebrook for fall--I wanna say someone told me honors housing moves around from year to year, but I have not tried confirming that.

It's a fair walk to Keller if most CS classes are there, and no real direct tunnel route, but hey

[lunar vessel]

Jokes aside someone really should make a discord, I've struggled to find one. I'd be down to make one, but there's probably someone here with better experience.

[night spear]

Wait I got cse

Are they different

[empty mirage]

yea their BS program is in CSE and the BA is in CLA, i applied for statistics and cs in CLA

[night spear]

Is umn very white or is it diverse

[glass tapir]

diverse as fuck

MANY international students and asian americans 💪

W school

[night spear]

are there indians

[glass tapir]

Bruh

Of course there are lmfao

[empty mirage]

it’s not super diverse but it’s not bad either

you’ll def find a community if you look for jt

[night spear]

Did any one else get a phone call for umn

[wind prairie]

way tooo many

im indian btw so that isnt racist mods

[night spear]

Bro tell them to unban me

[wind prairie]

i told em

[wind prairie]

unbanned

shit on rutgers even more lmao

[glass tapir]

unban from where?

[wind prairie]

rutges server

[onyx trout]

is there an admitted/accepted discord somewhere?

(even better if there's one/also one for honors)

[onyx trout]

12 days later, must be a 'no', then lol

[fathom swan]

U might be able to join the umn community with your email they gave u

[onyx trout]

yeah, there's the FB group, but was hoping for something not-facebook if it existed
