im scared of the kids

i just dont know if itll be a good environment for me socially

I know someone at Princeton I can try and ask them how they like it if u want
It’s one my cousins we just not close 🤷🏾♂️
rocky wyvern
yeah it would be cool if i could talk to them

Anyone know what the main reason for deferrals are
rocky wyvern
ive gotten very mixed opinions so far
the one kid i really know who goes hates it but hes kinda a dick so im not surprised hes having trouble making friends

Honestly idk what to make of it because UIUC also had the lowest acceptance rate so it's not just like safety vs reach
But yeah, I don't want to go to UIUC

wut yall think the deferral to acceptance rate/chance is
it isnt good
i knew one kid that got in last year deferred
but thats like a miracle
it really depends on ur mid-year grades
cinder dew
My mid year grades are amazing let me in uva
ancient dune
it doesnt make sense to get deferred other than for the reason that they want to compare ur app to their regular pool or they want an increase in grades
lets hope defers actually get accepted this year unlike last year
lyric crane
uva already had my mid year
howd that happen
cinder dew
we use trimesters
lyric crane
i mean my mid year is like just alright

i might just pick gmu over uva we shall see
y would u pick gmu over uva 😭
me personally id rather go oos but atp beggers cant be choosers
ancient dune
y would u pick gmu over uva 😭

gmu gave me no aid
so thats not an option
unless it was a cheaper option theres no reason to pick gmu over uva

i have a half ride scholarship and i’m waiting to see if i get full ride

u can get a guaranteed transfer if u want
also a good option imo
lyric crane
for CS yeah but i feel like uva has a brand reputation yk
it does but then itd come down to money personally
lyric crane
u can get a guaranteed transfer if u want
how would that work
lyric crane
if your midyear grades are significantly better you can get in
theyre like the same as last year
but more rigor
icy jolt
it does but then itd come down to money personally

ohhh
lyric crane
what’s LSA
meant cas
icy jolt
i almost applied there on accident
ancient dune
idk what its called at uva but like arts and sciences
yeah
icy jolt
because cs was listed at both schools
lyric crane
i did arts and sciences for every school except gt vt and uva
icy jolt
like i wrote my supplement and everything and had to change it last minute
lyric crane
uva was cuz i did not like the cas req
lyric crane
because cs was listed at both schools
ye

i did arts and sciences for every school except gt vt and uva
why arts and science for CS?

you got this bro
icy jolt
spkoe to the ao head
damn whatd they say
some of my friends did the vt program and they all got accepted early
lyric crane
damn whatd they say
they looked at my file (this was like last summer) and said i shld pretty much be an auto especially with my attitude and how i preformed at the program
that was before i got my ap scores and my sat and gpa went up
so i see no reason y not unless they think i killed someone

how would you rate your essays and ECs
lyric crane
how would you rate your essays and ECs
for uva specifically or in gen
icy jolt
both
lyric crane
i can dm them to u tbh
icy jolt
just summarize it 😭
i feel like uva deferral would do with your grades or essay
and class rank
i noticed that UVA only takes the top 6% for nova at least
simple terrace
had no intention of ed
oh it was ed
lyric crane
aiit
ecs: started a couple clubs, volunteer work at vcu, tutoring, 2 jobs
essays: i think pretty good talked a lot bout my experience in africa and how i got into cs/engineering out of wanting to fix problems in my community etc
lyric crane
and class rank
ye thats prolly what fucked me but cant do anth bout it
in terms of ability im like t20 in my school
but like my gpa bad cuz 0 ap/hon befor jr year which is y my uw so close to my w
i only did 3 aps and 3 hons last year
and got 4 aps this year
so idk
ancient dune
that makes sense why they deferred
they want to see ur grades this year
i mean since ur performing decently i think you have a shot
even tho the defer acceptance rate is low
lyric crane
ye probably
i mean i dipped in calc/stat uz of a bad tet (got these 2 back to back its pain)
so got 2 B+
otherwise rest r A's
ancient dune
ur grades are holding up so you might be able to get in
nah bro thats fine
u have a shot
lyric crane
we'll see

i mean VT seems less depressing anyway
sometimes i wish i did OOS because i can’t stand the weather here

double major should be easy that way
but i would be taking like 5 CS/Math courses per semester
ancient dune
yeah that would be good
hollow tusk
does uva give good oos aid?
ancient dune
yes
ancient dune
i mean it depends on ur efc
they dont give good merit but they have good need-based aid
lyric crane
idk what an efc of 9k gon get me
ancient dune
decent aid
i realized that its probably possible to double major in math and bscs across schools
lyric crane
is it?
ancient dune
applied math credits go towards math major
lyric crane
ic
ancient dune
and transfering into COE from CSA is pretty easy as long as you complete the core engineering requirements
simple terrace
that type of transfer is usually easier for most schools
ancient dune
yeah cuz liberal arts is liberal lmao
simple terrace
lol
ancient dune
cuz you also have to focus on the general ed requirements while also focusing on the other school classes
its like ur enrolled in both at once
but since csa doesnt have many gen eds
for those who claim ap credits
its not too bad

In general provided what you did wasnt absolutely heinous and you’re someone we could reasonably believe can show theyre sorry (aka you didnt get 6 warns for the same thing before your ban and then try to say sorry) you have a chance at getting appealed

I’m just trolling from r/Controversial but here are my two cents. Just lie about being Native American. Easy game.
Some races are more intelligent. That’s just factual. I said that intelligence is a very important factor when it comes to admission into top colleges, so if one race is statistically less intelligent, there would logically be less of them admitted. That isn’t racist, that’s facts. Instead of acting shocked, come up with an argument next time.
But affirmative action sucks ): -Asian with bad grades
Are all quoted I’ve had to deal with

Im not going to put up with it. Our filtering isn’t nearly as good as the subreddit’s. If something spirals and a mod isn’t there, we’re fucked

wtf i just realized
uva experienced a decline in rd apps this year
i think the rd acceptance rate will be higher this year
its possible for deferred kids to get in
simple terrace
i think the rd acceptance rate will be higher this year
yeah I just did the math but its at most 1% increase from ea overall
it might be easier to apply rd instead of ea which is kind of absurd

is it harder for intl deferred kids to get in?
ancient dune
is it harder for intl deferred kids to get in?
no
simple terrace
is it harder for intl deferred kids to get in?
if you are intl its hard for any school
ancient dune
yeah but deferred means ur already being considered
lyric crane
this might be purely anecdotal but y does rd feel like itll b way easier than ea/ed
ancient dune
this might be purely anecdotal but y does rd feel like itll b way easier than ea...
idk lol
lyric crane
i was listenign to a yale admissions podcast and they aid that rea can be harder because students may be qualified enough to get in but they hv no idea whos applying in rd
simple terrace
this is actually quite fascinating
lyric crane
so even tho u may have gotten in in rd they r hesitant to offer spots in fear of having to turn away applpicants that r better than u so only rly qualified applicants like ea/rd doont matter rly get in reliably
dk if that applies to every school but it does make sense
from that perspective
ancient dune
well deferred is added to ea for that reason
lyric crane
well ye
but thing bout being deferred is ur app is likely worse
than it wouldve been for rd seen lots of ppl say this
(me)
simple terrace
imo getting deferred means they have no strong reason to accept you
so after those defers I got it was a turn off
lyric crane
imo getting deferred means they have no strong reason to accept you
for me im guessing its cuz of variable but i dont see the point of mass deferring
like anth over 10% and its just weird
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFsEcfghweI also (i think) this was the video
ive listened to a lot of podcasts
Actually I lied
It was one of those
Lol
ancient dune
imo getting deferred means they have no strong reason to accept you
its better than having no reason to be accepted and straight denied
lyric crane
real
simple terrace
its better than having no reason to be accepted and straight denied
I paid like $70 to get my app read I would atleast like to know whats wrong with it
and based on the video it seems like they already write notes on each app

indeed
ancient dune
anyways i accepted the uva offer for now
but i didnt pay the deposit
imma wait a while to see what comes out of rd
i just want the admissions to know that its currently my top choice
simple terrace
makes sense
ancient dune
well you can always just back out lol
the enrollment deposit is give uva comfort that you wont back out
i havent paid it yet tho
not letting $400 disappear like that
its unlikely tho that i get into anywhere better so
somehow if i get into my reaches that would be insane

Trust me I think you have a chance for deferred admission
If ur grades were high enough (which I think they were) you should be fine
I think they’ll be taking more deferrals this year

i mean it seems more structured than the michigan one s
i lowkey wanna ask deanj bout the defferals at uva but like scared to ping

not that it mattered

personally, I thought the rejection was funny
We have that level of calm now
thank allah
ancient dune
i was gonna request getting transferred to COE
but i doubt ill get in
because they only enroll 700 kids a year vs 3k in AS
college of arts and sciences gets by far the most apps

UVA beat Duke yesterday in OT after a contraversial call
for Basketball
UVA poppin off this year tho
19-4 record
One of the overlooked reasons for going to UVA
is because of its really good brand/school spirit
sports are good across the board
i cant really find anything about UVA that is subpar besides the food
Good Academics + Good Athletics = prestigious school

$67,000 is affordable?

theres 15000 kids on campus
so if u were to average the need-based loans
it would be like 1.5k/yr average
better than 75k/yr for michigan lmao

For CS it’s just hard to justify over Georgia tech for $45,000 oos
But we will see how it all shakes out

starting salary for uva and gt are roughly equal
oh he got in uva instate?
idk the costs of each for both
but
iirc uva instate was roughly the same price
as gt oos
if ur full pay
nvm uva is a bit cheaper if ur a&s, but if ur engineering its like the same

pretty sure uva gives alot of loans lmao

to notify students by email when admissions are out
I think they only send the email if you don’t check the portal after a few hours of decisions being released
No point in emailing everyone when half already saw their decision

oh i see
gotcha

iirc uva instate was roughly the same price
I’m oos for both and basically full pay

theres no way i got in over these kids

ur saying oos georgia tech is better than in-state uva ?
No, oos for both
knotty fern
what would you say for in-state uva vs oos gt
Depends on your financial situation and what your studying. Im majoring in CS but focusing on cyber and uva arguably has better cyber despite Georgia techs higher CS ranking so I would probably go uva in-state
But it really depends
Uva also has a much nicer campus more school spirit/athletics if that matters to you
icy jolt
i’m focusing on cyber too :)
icy jolt
Uva also has a much nicer campus more school spirit/athletics if that matters to...
and yeah this also kinda matters to me
i actually got deferred from gt so it’s not exactly my choice to make but i’m pretty happy with uva

Sounds like uva is a great option then!

Mainly cost, research, and job opportunities

In that case uva no?

For a full ride compared to 23k
hard wasp
Makes sense 👍
simple terrace
Mainly cost, research, and job opportunities
for cs research gtech is a lot better and for opportunities they are abt the same. gtech is accross a street from a lot of tech branches and in a city, while uva has dc and few hqs near by
knotty fern
Yeah I would say what you want to go into. Ex: cs in government related fields, go to uva. Big tech or research, go to Georgia tech
If you don’t know, I would pick uva for the price

can confirm my friend got an internship with the cia as a first year cs student at uva
