i think we applied to a lot of the same schools
same except i didnt apply to mit
did you apply ppsp
nope too competitive
i got an interview for drexel bs/md so im hoping that works out
i am so nervous for my colleges
i feel like im gonna get rejected from everywhere except my safeties
how many you waiting for?
It's weird because I feel like each singular school is gonna reject me but also I should bag an acceptance or two out of my remaining 12
Same bruh
thats how I feel
ye i got 9 left same feeling
same, 20% admission rate ed is insane
And both feelings are completely logical too
It is a big 10 school though so lots of athletes
for some reason im feeling northwestern 😩
true, hopefully RD yields better results idk
im 1-1-1 with t20s so far and was delusional enough to apply to harvard and princeton
Me too stanny is gonna come through
💀
yo where'd you get in
wait what its not
notre dame (where i have legacy)
so it means nothing
im 0-1-0 for t20s
waitlisted flopkins rejected poochicago
i saw it and dead ass ignored it cuz i thought it was the normal hey no interview but u wont be at a disadvantage
tfw ur delusional and apply to 11 t20s and 1 safety
r we fucked if we didnt
i did 2 safeties and 17 targets/reaches
Literally 0/1 on t20s and 1/3 on t30s but also 3/5 on sub 10% schools so idek
shotgunned 27 schools and im on rejection num 9 gang
💀
I doubt anyone who didn't is at a disadvantage
I have 0 safeties 💀 my mom doesnt want to pay any non t20 or so
my highest so far is UF 😭
i hope not ig
whats ur 1
i never got the request to ssign up for an interview bruh
I got UNC, GA Tech, and Tulane somehow but couldn't get USC 😭
SAME
university of arizona
fr same
rly?
oo thats nice for astro
mannnn they better not hold us accountable
it was like day after app deadline or something
lemme check again
mhm and it closed pretty quickly
i wish i did an interview
i wish i had an interview, but i still applied for one
I didnt get
Any school that awards interviews like that doesn't actually care about them that much
14
I legit got nothing
It's literally 90% to engage alumni
its not in my spam or anything
guys for anyone who wants to go here know that it’s actually so cold and if you have seasonal depression it’s awful
They really dgaf
usc has a rly low accept rate
me neither
lmao i think this is a decent amount of interest emailed an ao askng bout my gpa
i cry every time it starts getting cold bc it’s miserable here
This just the northeast in general
damn ur competitive tho so idk
yeah ig
evanston and chicagoland is brutal
i dont think I can be autoreject
Wait what😭😭😭😭
im sad i ignored this now
Yeah but I thought I could be in the 6% 😢
im dead
It’s not in Massachusetts??????
did you not know where it was
yeah i never received that email at all
😭😭😭😭
bro rly chill i'm sure most people (including me) didn't send anything
northeastern is what ur thinking of
Gets a Columbia likely but doesn't know where northwestern is
unless im missign some joke
ur ao is so nice
what part of northwestern did u
theyre programmed to be
wewas not my ao
Wait a sec so like northeastern and northwestern aren’t connected??
but yes she was
ok i def feel like im missing some joke here
are you serious
Stfu you can't be serious
boy just withdraw at this point
I thought like northwestern was just a better northeastern
nawwwwwwwww this is gotta be bait
man u got into columbia
they are connected. northeastern is just 10x more prestigious though
bait
lmao

thats wild
Top tier trolling
Like they were in the same region but at like two different ends
And northwestern just happened to be better
northwestern is east of northeastern
my northwestern ao is chill
they are actually the same school. Northwestern is on the west side of campus though
same with washu
they’re connected by network. as a student at either you’re connected to all their online resources and you can just attend NE classes even if u go to NW in person as well. your acceptance letter will mention it cause the mascots are canonically friends
no my ao visited my school of 90 students
for harvard, usc, washu, northwestern, penn, yale, jhu, chicago, and a ton others
Need an AO to visit my school of 1 student
Ik you’re joking but I rly thoight it was smth like this 😭
Like they were sister schools or smth
northwestern wildcats 🤞🏽northeastern mild bats
Why isn’t it called Midwestern then
bc the other half of the country didn’t exist then
teenagers would have a field day with that name
cuz that just sounds trashy
Wtvr I applied a week late so I won’t get in but campus is pretty!
march 24
Damn
any portal haxx?
?
No portal astrology for NU, just wait till Friday
have we got a time for the 24th
ED came out at 3:30 CST, so RD will likely be the same or similar
What are you majoring in?
as of rn im pursuing a dual degree in computer engineering and oboe performance
but i currently am in a bad relationship with comp sci so i might switch to mechanical
What did comp sci do to you ):
damn oboe tho
oboe is so cool
ngl im looking forward to taking music classes in college
i love bienen
Has northwestern said when decisions are
24
They’re going to come out while I’m at a Taylor Swift concert 😭
LMAO ill be visiting umich when they come out 😭
what does it feel to live my dream 😭
withdraw form just dissappeared from portal
its either gonna be best concert experience for you or worst thats it
yooo i want a livestream :>
mf finna be celebrating while visiting another school 💀
fr fr i mean taylor is alr W so
it cant be worst
it'll just be slightly not so good
thats only if i get in LMAO
and im visiting on umich's dime too 😭😭
mf you got into HMU CS
i think you have a pretty good shot

it also gonna depend which songs she gonna play when you open the decision
i also did get rejected from all of WASP so 😭😭
it's wasp, dw
fair fair lol
nevertheless i'd love to go to see taylor one day :>
yeah
gl
for your northwestern result
thanks lol
ur right i just gotta pray for NU
i was a huge williams simp tho, now im NU simp
me too NU LET ME INNN
one thing i messed up on
is the demonstrated interest
forgot to do that
cuz i was busy w college
they do
thats why ppl be going crazy on attending these student panels
even if it has nothin to do w them
a lot apparently...
like the rural one
hopefully it don't matter as much for transfers
oh...
cuz i LITERALLY HAVE SCHOOL THE ENTIRE TIME
it's not gonna be something to make or break your application obv
just might push it over the edge of someone who hasn't shown di
if you both are equally as qualified which usually is hard to qualify
other than just the usual academics
true true
How much interest do I hav to demonstrate 💀
they probably track demonstrated interest of all those virtual tours too cause they ask you to register
I j joined one of dem
Hopefully none
cus I have 0 D.I. for every single college
ive never done a single visit, tour, anything virtual etc,
Lmao
does vandy track if you visited their campus?
they said four days
oh💀best of luck for you tho
its been on the portal for a whiel
where are you rn if you dont mind
u of rochester
what where i don't see it
same 😭
Most recent post on their admissions insta
ah it was in the caption i see it now
Sure is
cool
yeah
I surely got in 
i dont like how my comp sci class is structured and also im just not as interested in it atm
also my teacher isnt the greatest
not the best reason to dislike something but oh well
Was boutta say but fair enough
bro 😭 im so jealous of u, enjoy the show then open it lol
i talked with ao and they said that everyone in this thread got in
👍 🤭
let's goo
thanks! Tell them to give me a scholarship
yessss 😍even tho my ass is getting rejected
im getting rejected NU
i love the school so much
but im gonna get rejected
northwestern’s campus is phenomenally
4% acceptance rate speedrun gonna be fun
is it actually 4%
ya
i don’t think so lmao
they fill up half their class ed because they can admit exactly 1000 people since it’s binding
for rd they have to account for yield
so it’s ~2.3k
they accepted 3.7k total last year
not as shit as UChicago though
yeah
we cant even say for sure what UChicago's RD acceptance rate is
thats how much they want to protect that info
i mean applying to uchicago rd is just throwing your money away
its a total waste of time
0% acceptance rate
i mean
not really
i would say yes lol
nawww man i disagree
plenty of people also dont
i mean im saying
its just for the "shotgun"
Our uchicago this year was crazy
Like
It's never like this
They're really prioritizing physics people
Everyone who got in was physics
lol
who knows tbh
uchicago admissions is a scam fr
We had 5 people from the same physics class get in
it should just be uchicago rejections
HUH
you must go to like
to even have 1 person from a school be accepted is crazy
12 or 13 total, save for 2 all physics
private feeder
nyc?
Va
so
wtf
You already know
We've never had so many from physics
Uhh like 2/3 Ed 1/3 RD
It's insane
all of a2c had less than 4 LMAO
from what my sister said NU > UChicago
Facts
I have a Journalism tour at 4 at Northwestern on Friday 💀💀
If I get rejected I’m just walking out of the tour
Wait is that when they release??
likely 3:30pm CDT friday

Source?
that’s when ED released
Yes
This is kind of a great idea to open on the tour, but also it would be very awkward if you get rejected
The poor tour guide wouldn't even know what to say
Although decisions may well come out before 4, so you'll know if you even have to tour
ay i mean u'll be on campus just walk up to the admissions office and be like hey yo wtf
yh they would see your demonstrated interest and revert your status from rejected to accepted if need be
or better you can do some james bond shit and change your decision on your own
Damn you really put EECS in your name. It's like the kids who have to get Wharton in, not just penn. But fr thats a W
lol too many people kept dming what course i got in for lol
Fair enough then 😆
did everyone's withdrawal form disappear ?
yes
See it’s meant to be before the tour because I really don’t see it as too likely I’ll get in, but oh well
on ur portal?
my mid year transcript has been recieved
did ur counsellor submit the mid year report on the common app?
does it say they downloaded it?
guys none of us are getting in
they track DI
which means unless u love northwestern and make it ur personality u won’t get in
Does not applying to uchicago count as DI
normally people submit their app before their midyear grades are out but not sure what schedule your school is on
💀
I see
actually yes!
northwestern check your common app university list and add credits for not applying to UChicago, UIUC and Purdue!
wtf
no way
Damn guess I gotta email UIUC to revoke my acceptance
pls say ur sarcastic cuz i cant tell lmao
Bruh ofc they’re sarcastic
yes i am hahaha!
he’s joking
northwestern tracks DI primarily because they love their high yield
which they don’t rlly need to because their campus is so beau to fly
beautify l
BEAUTIFUL
damn i can’t spell
they don’t care about what other schools you applied to, if you signed up for interview + did essay + info session ur set
^^^
these are not examples of DI btw
I didn't get an interview offer
that’s alright
interview was DI
oh?
i did the essay*
yeah that’s fine
they say that to everyone
yup ik ik just saying it’s for interview
what if i signed up for an online session, forgot to attend, and then they said thanks for attending
where's this
ur fine
💀
it’s the message you got if you signed up for an interview but didn’t get one
I mean if u signed up but they didn't have space they should have emailed u
nah like u should have still received an email saying they didn't have space to interview u
wym by ucla (?)
GASOLINA
if u didn't receive any email about interviews u prob forgot to sign up
I mean maybe they made a mistake but getting this email wasn't based on availability of interviews
Like people got that email if they requested an interview but didn't get one
If u didn't get that email I don't think u signed up (or their system had an error?)
this wasn’t based on availability
the general email asking to sign up
actually getting one was
most people didn’t
Yea my point is if u didn't get the email I sent and u didn't get the email the other guy sent
I don't think u signed up for an interview
You sign up in your portal
I mean i might be confusing myself but I'm relatively sure you needed to sign up for an interview on ur portal
I think they removed the option at some point but I remember there being an option
After I requested an interview on the portal
Yea like I got this email
I saw all these screenshots and thought people were sending décisions 😭 my heart dropped
whoops isn't northwestern's release date already confirmed
no need to stress until friday
Yeah it’s this Friday
im like 95% sure there was no option to sign up for an interview on the portal
I mean maybe someone else who applied nu can confirm if there was 🤷♂️
northwestern is so lkit
either way at this point doesn't rly matter
Oh I mean that link goes to the portal yea
oh ok yeah i never got that first email
oh idk then i got that email like a day after getting my portal 🤷♂️
no clue then either way doesn't rly matter 🤷♂️
i think as long as people around you didn't get the first email it means they didnt send it to your geographic area
cuz my friend who also applied didnt get the first one
I requested an interview but they sent me an email saying that they couldn't get me an interview and that they appreciate the interest
yeah
maybe gonna make that decision if i get in which i won;t
wait i'll still be in school then...
gl for rd decisions coming out this friday guys :)
Damn
i mean
technically cuz im in asia
its not really my birthday (cuz decision will be out like 5am 25th)
but ig it still counts lol
u from india?
Lit
rice farmers
They still won didn’t they
💪
Do be like that haha
NW coming soon
@pure cipher did you do interview
sadly no
NW was mh first one and I bombed it too
Yea
I signed up for a ton of info sessions but attended none of them cause they were all at 3 am here
Admissions committee probably already has my application in the bin 😬
i did that for case western and they didn't shove me into the waitlist pile. i reckon ur good
Hope so 😭
thanks
for any internationals, do you think the additional information we had to submit (parents’ gross income iirc) will override the CSS profile when determining admission?
because the expected family contribution based on the info in my CSS profile is extremely high according to every net price calculator (much higher than my family can afford), but the additional documents we had to submit negate that
same lol
i signed up to like 5 or sth
never went to any 🥲
Is it bad I sent northwestern 4 recommendations
I tried to diversify them
1 was my English/theater teacher
1 was my environmental science teacher (my major)
1 was my online teacher (wanted to show that I’m great working self pace)
1 was my assistant principal
As long as they highlight different areas then you’re good
I don’t think they care too much
I was told by my admissions counselor too many letters can hurt tbh
Where you should only submit the recommended amount of letters
ok I hope😭
thanks
Letters of rec are stupid regardless
I get why they’re good for PhD and masters
They’re incredibly stupid for college
i mean i think they're ok
forming close relations w teachers and profs and being active participants r great traits
I mean I agree on that part
But I also think a lot of schools have teachers who don’t write letters or good letters
And it’s kinda unfair to students TK be judged on something a good chunk of teachers they might like don’t care about
Like what if your favorite teacher is a new teacher fresh out of college
And they don’t know how to write a good one yet
Yeah I agree, especially international students. My teachers had never written one before writing one for me.
Yeah that's different.
Yea
Mines all received tho
def no
thats solid
Agh my WHY NU statement is so bad 😭😭😭😭 sounds like AI wrote it
I wish I actually had a chance at this school
Ok good😭
Nope, I never had it. Does any intl have the fin aid checklist?
MINE IS WORST
Yeah I never had it either
Nah I promise u it’s not
Almost all the intls that I have seen in A2C and CC don’t have the fin aid checklist. Did you mail them the financial documents or uploaded them in their secure upload portal?
I uploaded the docs using the document uploader iirc
Same I used their uploader.
I really love NU but don’t have any hopes of getting accepted. They haven’t taken students from my country in quite a while.
Yeah me too.
dw
mine was copypasted 💀
!northwestern
so decisions friday?
Yeah confirmed
thanks!
Is it okay, if my fin checklist is absent?
yes
Who’s hyped?
last time I hyped I got rejected
hi
real
i won’t get hype…
There is no command for Northwestern because we have not seen a confirmed date and time for decision release. If you would like it added, use Mod Mail or a mod with the confirmed release date and time from a verifiable source.
Rawr
mood
HYPED AF
Yeah or I say we visit Chicago
Walk into UChi admissions
And beg them to let us in
😂
if northwestern doesn’t accept me i’m gonna visit evanston and demonstrate some interest
Ong
idek why id wanna go northwestern
What’s your major again?
Or “academic interest”?
As these colleges say
yeah
dude andy’s was so good
@timber mirage andy’s shut down…
when were u planning on telling me this
The custard place???
I WASNT AWARE OF THIS
YEAH
IT WAS HALF THE READON I LOVED EVANSTON
THAT AND THE HUGE ASSSS
I WANNA SAY BARBES AND NOBLES
BUT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A BORDERS

🙏

Your rizz, abhi’s dedication, and my Tom Buchananness
We’ll def convince UChi to take us off the waitlist one way or another

Me too man
Chicago was amazing

My parents were dumb
i mean they didnt want you to die probably
Chicago is p safe Lmao
Besides south side
my aunt used to work at uchi
Yeahhh
Uchi isn’t in the safest area of chicago
theyre a suburban family now
is UIC area safe?
Oo which suburb
elgin :D
its not tech a suburb is it
its a whole other city
Uiuc or uic
Lmao nah it’s pretty far away from the city
on Halsted St
i would love to try evanston food....
they wanted to get out of the city bc they had a kid
DUDE EVANSTON USED TO BE SO COOL
Uic is in a p safe area
ykw northwestern i would REALLY LOVE to try evanston food
Just don’t go south of Roosevelt
its 3:30 am i should sleep
I REMEMBER
northwestern ykyk I WOULD REALLY LOVE TO
omg
theree was a portillos nearby
and a huge targe
that we went to
and a dicks sporting goods where i got my first pair of soccer shoes
Portillos is dead to me
i love portillos
Ever since I found out what they put in their cake
I JUST CANT PAST THAT
WAIT THERE WAS THIS
LMAOO
Their cake is filled with sour cream
,,,
....
why would people eat that
i never had their cakes
i only had
their burgers
WAIT SORRY
OMG I MISS GARRETTS
who the fuck eats mayo in cakes
ew
i just liked
their burgers
i have such good memories
of when i visited
i miss evanston too
or the version of evanston i knew
Garett popcorn slaps
CHICAGO MIX
You’ll be back soon Dw
i remember
we got this chicago mix
thing
and we drove
through this one place
where there were like
multiple floors
of the same road
it was weird
but it was like downtown chicago (felt like downtown)
and we ate popcorn
This?
Kinda stale but always slaps
i remember it being the
like
really crispy popcorn
not the
weird
mushy one
u get in theaters
OH WE WATCHED THE EURO 2016 FINALS
IN THIS MEXICAN PLACE
which was so good
the memories are pouring back
i dont think i did either </3
its a shame though because i absolutely adore the school
their AO def has one of the best tiktok accounts
i hope i get 1 fun acceptance but im not expecting anything at all lmfao
I just know
But hey at least I’ll be less comp for everyone else in this chat
Is NU big on DI?
:D
they track so prolly
i think im gonna go 1/4 for my decisions i have left
Cuz I had 2 appointments that I canceled cuz of unforeseen circumstances so that’s not looking too hot
14 decision LEFT?
i think umich is a maybe for me and nu yale and penn are all ❌
YEP
LOL
Princeton, Harvard, Yale, UPenn, Columbia, Cornell, Duke, Berkeley, Northwestern, Georgetown, NYU, Vanderbilt, Emory, UNC
im kinda stupifd
Wow overachiever I highly respect it, best of luck!!
im just shooting my shot lool
i got usc ea so kinda just loking at reaches
Sameee
NU and UTAustin are my only reaches
uchi kicked me to the curb all my homies hate uchicago
Most my friends were directly rejected from Uchicago
im p sure they just randomly assign waitlists and rejections to kids they dont wanna accept bc the two are b the same
NU isso good
NU solos UT Austin by FAR
(i hope u get in)
Solos?
much better school
if u get into ut and u can afford it u should go
i went for a semester, amazing school
if ur instate then ut austin is very good
I did get in but I can’t afford OOS
better schools then
ugh that sucks ):
publics typically arent worth it OOS
Yeah… but my state school offered rlly good scholarships and it’s #2 in my major behind NU so honestly it just seems like the option.. I don’t want state school but idk I hear it’s not so bad
🙏
are u from Mich?
Sorry I was afk for a hot second
No MO
oooh
Ig that means UCLA oos is a no go 🥲
montana?
i think fate is telling me to stay in my state lmfao
im telling you USC is better
Missouri lol
missouri
ah
i dont like to get political but im aiming to avoid republican states
wh ocares about rankings, USC has abhi
matter of personal preference, nothing against them
I might go Loyola Chicago too
😂🙏 Ong
pretty like NU.
i wanna run for public office
did they give u good money? they gave me poop aid
Is Illinois Republican or Democrat?
i might do a JD and then run for office
I got like 55% which helps a lot tbh
Ngl though I met my local libertarian and they’re crazy
Evanston is probably intensely blue tho
their ideas sound cool
so is chicago
cities are always more democratic
Maybe it was just the local person that was crazy lol
GUYS I SHOULD GO TO DEVRY UNIVERSITY
Yup
did u hear the
oral arguments for
moore v harper
i might be bordering on server guidelines here but i am a bit concerned
i didnt concur with the opinions of any justices in the arguments. obviously theyre smarter so it means I need to study law for another 50 years to understand their logic
wut case was that
Gerrymandering in NC!
or more accurately
judicial checks of state judiciary in overturning federal district maps made by state legislature
R u poli sci major or law
Ahhh ok ok
Ofc ofc
what about you
I’m a journalist I get that sentiment
norrrrrthhhhwestern my love
mood
LMFAO Frl we are the pests of society
dude im listening to despacito at 4am
anyone else here physics + astro
i should slep
i liked my northwestern essay i hope its good enough
U give me vibes that ur gonna get accepted
Not to bring ur hopes up but idk
Ur vibes
ic ill read up on it
no way thank you hahaha
i am rooting for you too
"At Northwestern, I imagine myself studying on an orb chair at the Norris University Center or strolling with friends alongside Lake Michigan with the famed Chicago breeze hitting my face. I envision studying healthcare strategies to present to my team at The Garage at the Farley Center while pondering over what café I should try next in Evanston."
Ty ty ur gonna lose the bet but ty
