Stanford (2022-2023)

[shrewd scarab]

[mellow sentinel]

I wouldn't say dangerous but expensive

[shrewd scarab]

[heavy tapir]

How far is stanny from San Francisco

[shrewd scarab]

you'd have to drive across either via 280 to 92 to get to half moon bay or take one of the really windy roads

[dim wagon]

If rice is sexy I will profess my love to firestar

[ornate bone]

[viscid vapor]

LMAOOOOOO

[visual comet]

that's true

they tend to like my school tho i think

[lost zodiac]

which school

[visual comet]

and MA gets advantage in general

it's just a public school

[viscid vapor]

essentially harvard is the definition of elitism\

[shrewd scarab]

omg i thought you meant ma like menlo athertoj and almost fainted

[lost zodiac]

oh then i wouldnt know

[visual comet]

but we get like 2-5 per yr

[heavy tapir]

[visual comet]

[lost zodiac]

yeah ma is advantage

[visual comet]

and white

[lost zodiac]

[heavy tapir]

I feel like maybe boston area since theres some many colleges for research and stuff

[viscid vapor]

2 to 5 per year !?!?!?!?!? 💀

[lost zodiac]

Thats quite common

[heavy tapir]

Not for a public school???

[sick mesa]

lol the whole of india gets 2-5 admits per year

[visual comet]

no it's common for massachusetts lol

bc it's like in state ig

[heavy tapir]

Whatt

[visual comet]

it's still rly hard to get in obv tho

[viscid vapor]

your school has more harvard admits per year than a country of 1.3 billion people

[sick mesa]

i am curious 2.5A ?

[lost zodiac]

im pretty sure harvard barely defers legacy if u REA

[heavy tapir]

Only like one kid from my schools ever gotten in i think

[visual comet]

eh depends

they do if you're not at a certain lvl

[sick mesa]

how the 0.5 acceptance

[lost zodiac]

[lost zodiac]

Deans list is enough

[visual comet]

there's this kid from my school in a previous yr where they basically paid columbia

[visual comet]

Umass amherst my safety 😭 and columbia likely

[heavy tapir]

[viscid vapor]

[lost zodiac]

[visual comet]

[visual comet]

tbh no idea bc i can prob switch when i go in but smth along the lines of art history/architecture/psychology/visual studies?

[ornate bone]

architecture and psych majors sounds interesting

art history and visual studies sound awful (i am bad at anything art/visual related)

[visual comet]

yea i get that a lot from ppl 😭 but i'm a huge art nerd

[heavy tapir]

Major in math its more fun

[visual comet]

[sick mesa]

[ornate bone]

i could not survive as an art or english or anything humanities major

[ornate bone]

[ornate bone]

art + history = death

[dim wagon]

ik those papers be kicking

[visual comet]

😭

idk how stem majors survive

i love science don't get me wrong

[shrewd scarab]

we dont touch grass

[visual comet]

not as a srs pursuit tho

or math

[sick mesa]

[dim wagon]

yeah

[shrewd scarab]

doubt

[dim wagon]

Doubt

[visual comet]

cs majors literally live thru hell every day 😭

i cld never

[dim wagon]

[visual comet]

[dim wagon]

i remember i had to write a 15 pg paper on the crucible

through a lens of romanticism

i hated it 😭

[visual comet]

it has a bit of physics in it too

[ornate bone]

analyze the direction of the brush strokes. based on the precise angles they were brushed at, tell me the exact year and month this was painted at

[dim wagon]

and how does that signify the American dream

[ornate bone]

ur pfp symbolizes the perfect human being who should date me rn 😚

[visual comet]

it's always the american dream

[sick mesa]

A2cers are usually self deprecatory so when A2Cers think they have an actual chance after having dealt with trauma of countless rejections it is almost always a W

[ornate bone]

😭

prepping for my 6 straight rejections next week

[rugged laurel]

Lol

[sick mesa]

lol every time i see ivy plants or people talk about blue ivy, i think of all my rejections and have now conditioned myself so the Ls on ivy day dont hurt me

[rugged laurel]

my great delusion

is telling me im getting stanford

[ornate bone]

poison ivy leagues

[sick mesa]

i do the same evrytime i see a tree, so prepare for stanford rejection

[sick mesa]

northwestern, jhu dubs are a sign of showing it isnt delusion

[rugged laurel]

Hopefully

I mean

I think objectively

I have a shot

just not a very good one

[sick mesa]

.

[rugged laurel]

well im fortunate enough to not have been dealt the trauma of continuous rejections xd

ty though

[shrewd scarab]

help

[sick mesa]

flex

[ornate bone]

save some acceptances for us 💔

[sick mesa]

lol ur cal+stanford acceptance coming in 4 days will help

[stray granite]

Getting into stanford would, in fact, be a w

[hybrid shadow]

So Stanford isn't sending out an email to confirm decision day?

[shrewd scarab]

[dim wagon]

If I get into cal I should get into stanford

[ornate bone]

what abt me 🥺

[dim wagon]

you will get into Stanford off rip

[flat scroll]

probably not

i've been looking around and there's like, i think past instances where they literally just announce the day of

but they're always doing it the day after ivy league day

[rugged laurel]

I only have 3 so far some people have like 20 💀

[flat scroll]

i only have 5 and all of them but one are in state 💀

[heavy tapir]

I will end u

[dim wagon]

We gotta tag team him

[heavy tapir]

With or without clothes on?

[ornate bone]

⁉️ayo

[flat scroll]

a mix?!?!

[dim wagon]

I just saw that Stanford’s acceptance rate for international students is higher than the domestic student

Is that right?

[sterile python]

Only if u don’t need aid

Prob

They want that sweet sweet money

[flat scroll]

that seems weird idk 😭

where did that come from

it might be a self-selecting situation

where the only people who apply are incredibly competitive to begin with

[glass surge]

i think this may be because there’s way less intl applications

[heavy tapir]

Whats the source

[shrewd scarab]

some website called yocket.com

so yk its fake

no im jk but ive never heard of this site 😭

[heavy tapir]

Yea yocket.com doesnt sound too trustable lmao

[ornate bone]

What if I made yocket.com

[heavy tapir]

Than i would follow yocket.com to the ends of the earth

[ornate bone]

❤️

[flat scroll]

I would ddos it

[bitter pier]

When are decisions?

[past jay]

No one knows - ppl are thinking the 31st or the 1st

[flat scroll]

NOOOO eymae is gone

PLEASE

LET ME IN

[bitter pier]

I remember you, u applied to Wharton ED like me. We talked a few months back at the beginning of decisions

[visual comet]

praying for 31

[subtle forge]

same i wanna get this all over with so i can just commit somewhere

[ornate bone]

Same ^

but I’m 90% sure I’m committing gtech

[subtle forge]

i’m most likely committing to umich

i doubt i’ll get anything on ivy day anyways

[ornate bone]

WWW

[ornate bone]

Same

For me

I was between uiuc and Umich

But gtech was sm cheaper than Umich for oos

and it has rly nice cs program

so I’m leaning towards it now

[subtle forge]

i went on a campus day for umich yesterday and i really liked it

my whole family really likes it too

[ornate bone]

anywyas all I have left are Stanford ivies and Berkeley and ik I’m not getting any of them so I need to start liking gtech

[ornate bone]

Oo

Nice

[subtle forge]

fr same

[ornate bone]

I think I visited Umich before

for my older brother

It was very nice cosmos

Campus

[subtle forge]

i’m intl but it’s only like a 4.5 hour drive

so not too far

[ornate bone]

ooh

I know I’ll be happy at Georgia tech and it’s a really good school esp for cs but in the moment it just sucks knowing that I won’t end up at a top school like my friends and that there will be ppl I’m disappointing 😭

but I know that once I actually leave highschool and go to college I’ll be fine

[subtle forge]

honestly at the beginning i felt the same but i also think i’ll be happy at umich anyways so i’m not that worried for the rest of my decisions

[ornate bone]

Yeah

Like overall I’m very happy w how@my decisions turned out

[subtle forge]

it’s also harder to stand out at a really top uni if youre applying for grad schools and whatnot

[ornate bone]

Yeahh

[split atlas]

No way, same. Just holding out hope from the Stanford deferral 😭

[ornate bone]

i heard stanford defers have a very good chance of turning into accepts!

[flat scroll]

all i have is stanford

if i don't get into stanford i'll most likely be choosing between umiami or fsu

[split atlas]

I’m hoping!

It’s rumored 15-30% so it’s not guarantee but better than 4% or something

[ornate bone]

did u send a loci

heard that helps

[feral prism]

Grant is acc cracked frfr he’s getting in fs

[split atlas]

Lol funny to se you here

[feral prism]

Hello Mr penetration tester

[split atlas]

😁

[feral prism]

I love that sm

I hope the defer -> acceptance rate is on the high side

[feral prism]

But like even then it means 70% of us aren’t getting in

So it’s v scary

[heavy tapir]

Better than like 97% for rd 😭

[split atlas]

It’s scary for all of us

It’s going to be a wild week

Expect to see me in #💪-chad-rejects lmao

[heavy tapir]

Yea im happy with my results no matter what tho bc i got a good school already

[feral prism]

Just tryna get accepted somewhere 🙂

[heavy tapir]

Bc isnt a t20 but its close enough for me lol

[heavy tapir]

U will, trust 💪💪

[split atlas]

Facts, you’re def getting in some places

[ornate bone]

i was thinking that for cmu but apparently not 😭

[heavy tapir]

It was yield protection

Bc ur such an obvious stanford admit

[ornate bone]

!!

cmu was the first rejection that hurt hurt tbh

i opened BU right after and i didnt even care

[flat scroll]

@feral prism what's ur pending decisions

[neon solar]

I had 4 rejections before CMU but it was my CMU rejection that just broke me and made me look at screen for 5 minutes

[flat scroll]

it always hurts for the ones you've emotionally invested urself in

my uf rejection was so sad for me

especially when my friends got in

but i didn't

and everyone physically told me i was getting in??

like 😭

[neon solar]

I'm numb now tho, if I don't see confetti I'm just gonna be closing and moving on

8 more decisions for me

[flat scroll]

thank god i only applied to 10 colleges tbh

sometimes i consider it bad but at the same time like

fuck back to back rejections

[ornate bone]

same here :/

it was my dream school for so long

[crimson sage]

Cmu was the straw that broke the camels back

Now just holding out for stanny

[flat scroll]

how have you guys had dream schools for most of your lives

[ornate bone]

and i got deferred ED1 so i really thought i had a chance bc they dont defer that many

[ornate bone]

(dream school since i decided to ED)

[flat scroll]

i've just not really had a dream school until.. junior year?

oh

[ornate bone]

so since like...november?

[neon solar]

How do I purge my head of all knowledge about a school 😭

[ornate bone]

real.

[flat scroll]

some fucked up part of me sincerely is hoping for stanford portal astrology just so i don't have to worry this week

[neon solar]

I don't have a reason to know so much about CMU anymore

[heavy tapir]

Same

I thought i was going to western new england university until this year 😭😭

[flat scroll]

i'm satisfied between fsu or miami tho because they're less than 10k a year 😊

[heavy tapir]

Please look the school up and you’ll understand

[flat scroll]

i will NOT be in fucking debt 💯

miami gave me insane financial aid (68k) with 10k efc 😭

it makes me think my parents misreported it

[ornate bone]

i guess stanford has technically been my dream school but ive never thought i actually had a chance bc of how popular it is, cmu was a new school to me so i actually got attached to it

[flat scroll]

oh same

the SCHOOL i think of is stanford

when i think of prestige

[ornate bone]

yeah

[neon solar]

That's funny, Miami has a reputation for being stingy and super expensive

Congrats tho

[ornate bone]

like if (when) i get rejected stanford i think ill be fine because its been so mentally out of reach my whole life

but cmu i really thought i had a chance but i didnt even get waitlisted

[neon solar]

Same

Exactly the same

[flat scroll]

i have some florida bright futures + financial aid + florida prepaid + my parents said they'll pay everything + florida ease grant 😭

which is insane

if i get into stanford tho

i'm like scared

cause can i even afford it?

[feral prism]

Harvard yale Princeton penn brown duke Stanford 😭

[flat scroll]

GL

for some weird reason

i keep thinking you're a junior

like your name just has a weird different color to me idk

but also did you really just like

apply to only t20s 💀 @feral prism

[feral prism]

I’m a U.S. citizen in Canada so I applied to Canadian safeties and spammed 11/15 T15 schools

[flat scroll]

OHHH

ok that makes sense

[feral prism]

Ngl I think I got most of my waitlisted cus I applied to jhu and washU for neuro and gatech for eng literally the most competitive majors

[stray granite]

:<

You're gonna get in!!

Manifesting for you

[night shard]

Wasn’t it April 1st cause everyone saying Stanford was April fools??

[sterile python]

Waterloo?

[tardy blaze]

when waterloo becomes a safety

[sterile python]

Sorry I didn’t mean as a safety

What’s the Waterloo CS acceptance rate anyway for the US?

i think its like 3% or something crazy

[tardy blaze]

yeah its insane lol

my friend who got into MIT said its less than MIT acceptance rate lol

[rugged laurel]

Im so hard on the copium

I looked at my essays

and I was like

wow

theyre so good

Im getting in

I f ucking put everything

into this app

please god

if there is a god be a homie bro

[ornate bone]

i agree god if u exist let me in stanford its probably my last chance at t20 (but thank u for letting me into gtech anyways 🙏 )

let me and eversoda and emre in

[tame dome]

my only selective schools were purdue and northeastern for biomed eng + premed lmao

gatech would be nice

[ornate bone]

congrats on purdue :>

northeastern rejected me so i dont associate w it anymore

[tame dome]

lol thanks

i might just go for their premed tbh

[past jay]

Yeah! I didnt get it tho :( I got USC Marshall which is good, didn’t apply to Ross and I’m waiting on Stern!

[rugged laurel]

STANFORD LET ME IN

I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR YOU

[viscid vapor]

count me in that too b rudda

[hybrid beacon]

coughs in jhu and nu

[small jungle]

hey anyone know the exact date for the stanford decisions? or is "early april" all we know?

[grizzled pecan]

Prolly either 31st or April 1st

[small jungle]

ok cool

also I was wondering if there's even a chance for acceptance without submitting test scores

[grizzled pecan]

Historically it’s been the day after Ivy day so likely 31st

[small jungle]

I didn't submit because I only got a 1430 sat but I have good grades and extra circulars

[grizzled pecan]

If your transcript is good there is yes, there’s many many people each year who get admitted test optional

[small jungle]

ah okay, I was trying to research about it and then I ended up here from some reddit post so that's why I'm asking

[grizzled pecan]

However, a lot of AOs have said it looks weird if for instance, most people applying from your school have sent them and you havent

Because then it’s not an accessibility issue, but rather, you didn’t do well on the test issue

[small jungle]

yeah true

definitely won't be seen as an accessibility issue lol

because I'm sure probably like 20ish people or maybe even less applied from my school and most of them probably submitted their scores

[grizzled pecan]

Yeah but I wouldn’t sweat it at this point honestly

[small jungle]

Yeah I know

[ornate bone]

Have u read one of those Stanford admission file thingies

I saw one earlier this week

I think the reason people who submit test scores get in easier is because it’s much easier to earn a high rating in “test” than every other category

So if u go test optional I think they nullify that score

Iirc it was a 1 to 6 scale

[grizzled pecan]

Me coping and hoping that my 1550 will make up for my shitty grades 😃

[ornate bone]

so it’s relatively easy to get a 1 in test category compared to a 1 in anything else

[ornate bone]

Which means if u get rid of the test score, u basically have to make up for it with the other parts of ur app since it’s usually a booster to ur overall score

[ornate bone]

1550 is awesome

Congrats (:

[grizzled pecan]

Thanks! A 3.7 UW isn’t though LOL

[ornate bone]

I doubt it’d break ur app

After all grades are just one aspect

[grizzled pecan]

Yea I doubt break it’s just 100% a big uphill battle

Which sucks

[ornate bone]

Anything Stanford is an uphill battle 😭

[grizzled pecan]

True true lol

But like even more you know

[ornate bone]

I don’t think I’m getting in bc I haven’t gotten into a lot of easier schools

But who knows I still have some little hope left lol

[grizzled pecan]

I wouldn’t let that bring u down tbh

I know plenty of ppl who got rejected from lower ranked schools and got into ivies and such

Like a bunch

So ur hope is plenty justified trust me

Which schools did u not get into?

If you don’t mind me asking

[ornate bone]

I got deferred then rejected by Carnegie mellon

Rejected at usc

And ut Austin

And I got waitlisted at Irvine and LA

And I got undeclared at ucsd

[ornate bone]

It’s np lol

I’m p open abt my decisions anyways

[grizzled pecan]

Ohhh sorry man

I feel for you, I just got rejected from USC as well

[ornate bone]

Yeaa ): not the best decisions but its wtv

[grizzled pecan]

Although tbh those are mostly public’s

Which can be funky with admissions

Did you apply scs cmu?

[ornate bone]

Yea

I’m surprised I didn’t get flat out rejected ED but even after defer I sent in a loci and everything and I really was expecting at least a waitlist :/ I mean ik I shouldn’t have expected anything but yeah

[grizzled pecan]

💀cmu scs is like impossible to get into isnt it

[ornate bone]

No idea

Cs in general is impossible

And my app isn’t as strong as a lot of ppl on here

Rn my top choice is either Georgia tech or Umich (probably gtech bc tuition)

[grizzled pecan]

I know a co’25 who got into HYPSCC and waitlisted from MIT and CMU lol

[ornate bone]

what’s hypscc

[hybrid beacon]

cc being caltech and columbia ig

[grizzled pecan]

Harvard
Yale
Princeton
Stanford
Columbia
Cornell

[ornate bone]

Yea but I didn’t even get waitlisted 😭 it seems like everyone on this server got waitlisted and it made me kinda sad that I just got flat reject

I don’t even know what I did wrong ):

like I know it’s cmu scs

[fringe meadow]

when is stanford releasing

[ornate bone]

But defer is rare I thought for cmu so I thought it meant I was competitive

[ornate bone]

Friday or Saturday

[grizzled pecan]

I wouldn’t compare urself to ppl in this server bc there’s always gonna be acceptances here

For any school

Even uchicago RD 💀

[ornate bone]

Yeahh :/

ppl here r so smart

They made Cornell likelies seem common

[grizzled pecan]

Ay congrats on those two they’re amazing choices

[ornate bone]

Thank u

My last decisions are ivies and Stanford so I’m not rly expecting anything more

[grizzled pecan]

Same thing here exactly lol

Which ones u waiting on?

[ornate bone]

Princeton yale Cornell Columbia

I think I’d only really consider Princeton and yale over gtech

And Stanford Ofc

Stanford is my dream school ig but it’s always been mentally out of reach

[grizzled pecan]

Mmmm nice that’s pretty similar to my list

[ornate bone]

That’s why cmu hurt sm bc I thought I actually had a chance 😭

[grizzled pecan]

That was usc for me lol

[ornate bone]

Yeah :/ my dad and brother were actually shocked I didn’t get in

[grizzled pecan]

Man my parents are the opposite

Like they’re confident in me and they know I have a good profile but

They’re like really in touch with how impossible top schools are nowadays which is both good and bad

[ornate bone]

My mom has reasonable expectations for me but my dad and brother have insane hopes for me 😭

[grizzled pecan]

I see

[ornate bone]

Ikr

[grizzled pecan]

Like I’d be like

I just have Princeton Yale Cornell Stanford left now

And they’d like

Laugh

And I’m like cmon bro

[ornate bone]

Oh :/

I’m sorry for that

[grizzled pecan]

No I mean like

[grizzled pecan]

Again this but they just know how hard it is

[ornate bone]

Wdym laugh

laughing like u don’t have a chance or ?

[grizzled pecan]

Yeah but not in like a intentionally mean way, more like a “it’s a lottery for those schools so idk why ur getting ur hopes up when it’s just so insanely competitive” laugh

Less of a jab at me but more at that school

Which kinda sucks but

Whatever

[ornate bone]

Yeahh I get that

Unfortunately some of my friends are kind of like that 😭

[grizzled pecan]

Damn

Although I guess they have realistic expectations

[ornate bone]

Yeahh

[grizzled pecan]

Like imagine u tell ur dad u get rejected from Stanford and he’s like “WHAT”

Like mf

What u think???

[ornate bone]

💀

[small jungle]

Lmao

What is your major tho @grizzled pecan

[ornate bone]

Probably aero or Astro

[small jungle]

Ah nice

Seems like most people do that or comp sci

[ornate bone]

imagine being a cs major 🙄

[ember oriole]

When’s stanfords decision

[ornate bone]

(I’m a cs major)

[small jungle]

Same lol

[ornate bone]

Friday or Saturday maybe

Benz

UCSD did me so dirty

[ember oriole]

Oh really

[ornate bone]

They accepted me

And gave me undeclared.

[ember oriole]

God

CS?

[small jungle]

Damn rip

[ornate bone]

Yea ):

[small jungle]

UF did something similar for me

[ember oriole]

Ouch

[small jungle]

They gave me some stupid program where I'd have to go their community college

[ornate bone]

College decisions have been so shitty for me 😭

[ember oriole]

Next best thing is math CS

or cogs ML

[ornate bone]

I think I will commit gtech

[ember oriole]

both are uncapped

[ornate bone]

Unless I get Princeton or Stanford

[heavy tapir]

Isnt gtech like t5 for cs fire?

[ornate bone]

Uh

Idts?

I can name 5 schools better than gtech

[heavy tapir]

I swear its up there

[ornate bone]

Stanford

Mit

Princeton

Berkeley

Cmu

Uiuc?

Cornell

[heavy tapir]

T10 for cs

[ornate bone]

Uhh

[grizzled pecan]

Look at my name dawg lol

[ornate bone]

Yea maybe t10 cs

I mean

I know it’s a very good school for cs

Objectively I know that

but I wanted to live that dream of going to an “elite” school 😭

mostly just bc a lot of my school friends

[heavy tapir]

Gtech is elite in my eyes

[ornate bone]

They’ve gotten into like Berkeley ucla Cornell

it hurts a little bit that I haven’t gotten anything of that caliber ig ):

[grizzled pecan]

Pretty sure Berkeley == UCLA == gtech, at least imo

[heavy tapir]

You will get stanford trust 💪💪

[ornate bone]

hoping lol

[grizzled pecan]

Bro if I get Princeton

I will be so happy

But I probably won’t

[ornate bone]

@heavy tapir what is bc

[grizzled pecan]

Boston College

[ornate bone]

DAMN

U GOT INTO BU???

Congratsss

[grizzled pecan]

Lmao

They’re separate

[ornate bone]

Oh

[grizzled pecan]

Different universities

[ornate bone]

College is diff than uni?

that’s weird

what’s the difference

[grizzled pecan]

College typically refers to the undergraduate part

That’s why you apply to for example

Harvard college

[ornate bone]

Ohhh

Well either way

Conrgats emre :))

[grizzled pecan]

Boston college is a private religious university

[heavy tapir]

Stanny wammy

I got straight rejected rice now I’m nervous

[neon solar]

i watched nearly all of introvertedmadness videos on stanford

i no longer want to go to stanford

[rain dagger]

Dw I didn't even apply to rice and I still got rejected

[heavy tapir]

What ???

[rain dagger]

I didn't submit my app fee, and they don't give fee waivers to internationals. They sent an email saying my app wouldn't be considered without paying the app fee. And today I got officially rejected

But like my checklist was half empty

I did write their essays though 😭 I thought they'd accept the common app/Coalition app fee waivers

[ornate bone]

Stanford ur my last chance pls take me 😞🤞

[heavy tapir]

Me too gang

We’re both getting stanford trust

[dim wagon]

I don’t know what I’ll do if I get rejected

[woven valley]

i didnt submit a mid year report

gg

[stray granite]

[neon solar]

think your counselor is supposed to do that

[heavy tapir]

[ornate bone]

how do we know if Stanford got the mid year report

It’s not on the portal

ok so here's something from CC

[neon solar]

why

[heavy tapir]

why would they tell a committed athlete but no one else?

[flat scroll]

i have no idea

[heavy tapir]

athletes arent that important at schools like stanny lol

[flat scroll]

i'm honestly not sure if the post is true or not

but either way shouldn't they announce the date in the upcoming few days?

or do they do the day of

[heavy tapir]

i have no idea

[sterile python]

trying to flex

[ornate bone]

i alr know chances at stanford are alr abysmal but i just checked my parchment history and apparently i ddint send a transcript from my commnuity college to stanford, but i listed the grades/courses in my additional info section, would they still consider it?

so basically they have an unofficial version and not offical transcript

is that okay

[sterile python]

prob just email the amissions office

and say what u said

it wont go against u

[ornate bone]

i mean its kinda too late now

[sterile python]

better late then ever

[ornate bone]

just asking if it would be considered

[sterile python]

im not sure

honestly

ask on Reddit since AOs are there

[ornate bone]

hmm ok

[flat scroll]

TBH it's probably too late

we're 2-3 days before decisions

but i don't think not having an official transcript will make or break ur application

i'd try to email them anyways though

i've been looking at stuff though tbh

and it kind of seems like stanford is less popular than the ivy leagues

which is weird to me

[dim wagon]

ON GOD

firestar

i will suck yo cocko if i get in

[ornate bone]

🤤

[heavy tapir]

yea

if they needed an official version they would email
