its a reverse jinx

real gorge
#

The university's charter was modified to read "Washington University" in 1857. The words "in St. Louis" were added to the University's name by trustee action in 1976, in order to better distinguish our institution in the national media.

sudden urchin
#

boreal wyvern
#

#

ITS NOT ON ST LOUIS

real gorge
#

clayton the non city city

boreal wyvern
#

Washu is dangerous ☝️🤓

sudden urchin
#

😭

#

it’s the safest looking place ever

hollow valve
sudden urchin
#

the loop looks like a hallmark town

real gorge
#

clayton is rlly nice

boreal wyvern
#

Those dorm buildings

fleet lava
#

nah

sudden urchin
#

only issue. the 1920s style cinema got turned into a church

fleet lava
#

clayton is cheeks

sudden urchin

real gorge
#

goofy ahh skyline

real gorge
#

LMAOOOO

#

ya the skyline kinda shit

#

clayton vs university city 🤓

sudden urchin
#

the cardinals stadium is cool asf

real gorge
#

i think the weirdest part for my washu process thus far

#

was

#

my interviewer

#

because we had so many similiarties in our livs

#

lives

#

that it was almost awkward

#

but it helped make our conversations so great

boreal wyvern
#

hooray!

real gorge
#

yippy!

boreal wyvern
#

My reaction to a washu acceptance

real gorge
#

im not gonna have a reaction until i see my fin aid

#

and i say this because with all of my colleges

#

i prefer myself a couple of days in advance before opening my decisions so i dont cry

#

so i have like no emotion when i open it

#

and its just like omg awesome or damn

#

then i see my fin aid and get thrown off

hollow valve
#

well they meet 100% of demonstrated need and are need blind now

real gorge
#

ik but like for uw madison for example

boreal wyvern
#

Yeah 100% my ass

real gorge
#

i was expecting rejection so i was just thrown off

#

got a full ride oos

#

which was def more of a reaction for me

hollow valve
#

doesnt mean you wont have to get some loans

real gorge
#

well the full ride included a couple of subsidized loans

#

so it wasnt bad

boreal wyvern
#

You got into the wrong UW

sudden urchin
#

if I can’t afford WashU imma have to back out but I should be able to

real gorge
real gorge
#

i heard they are far lenient with ed applicnts for fin aid

toxic cape
#

I actually didn't like washu much when I visited but I hope you guys to

boreal wyvern
#

The negotiation usually goes like this

#

Can i have more aid

#

No fuck you

toxic cape
#

that's how my negotiation went

#

actually

real gorge
#

for ed they usually review it again since ur binded to them

real gorge
#

damn

toxic cape
#

not really

#

I was just trying to make it as easy on my parents as possible

boreal wyvern
#

the review: still no aid

toxic cape
#

it was like

#

"can i get 5k more please your npc said this"

#

"are your parents disabled or dead"

#

"no"

real gorge
#

LOL

toxic cape
#

pretty much

boreal wyvern
#

well did you get the aid

toxic cape
#

no...

boreal wyvern
#

what was the discrepancy

toxic cape
#

no clue

boreal wyvern
#

npc vs ur real aid?

toxic cape
#

oh

#

6k

#

ish

real gorge
#

im going to bed at 7am so i can wake up like at 3pm

toxic cape
#

it was within reason

hollow valve
#

they gave me slightly more than my npc calculator

boreal wyvern
#

what was the difference between ur fafsa efc

real gorge
#

then i can watch a movie for like 2 hours

toxic cape
#

okay my fafsa was complicated

#

it didn't really

boreal wyvern
#

because rn my fafsa efc is 34k and washu is 52k so

real gorge
#

then see decision and see how my day goes on after that

toxic cape
#

bring the whole picture

toxic cape
#

my fafsa efc was 11k

toxic cape
toxic cape
boreal wyvern
#

my fafsa efc was around 30k

#

but we can afford much more to be real

toxic cape
#

fafsa is weird like that

boreal wyvern
#

most of my npcs were around 35k also

#

idk why its low but thanks fafsa

real gorge
#

npcs are usually a bit outdated

toxic cape
#

it's whatever

real gorge
#

i noticed for a lot of my schools they were still linked to the costs of the previous year, or the year before that

boreal wyvern
#

then washu wanna charge me 55k

real gorge
#

so its gonna be a bit inaccurate

#

isnt washu raising tuition by like 3k next year or something

toxic cape
#

you guys like my pfp btw

boreal wyvern
#

yeah

toxic cape
#

I stole it off of pixiv

boreal wyvern
#

i like the a2c pfp

toxic cape
#

there's a bunch of great ones too

boreal wyvern
#

i didnt notice they changed it

real gorge
#

i love the washu a2c pic

#

so cute

toxic cape
#

you guys think you'll get in or na

boreal wyvern
#

Could go either way

real gorge
#

i mean

boreal wyvern
#

but no probably

real gorge
#

honestly i dont know

toxic cape
#

well by now it's gone one way

real gorge
#

im thinking ill get like rejected

toxic cape
#

they've probably decided no?

#

when are they announcing it?

real gorge
#

only because deferring me at this point would be reaslly weird

boreal wyvern
#

tomorrow

real gorge
#

around 4;4:30pmish cst

boreal wyvern
#

i feel like my decision could be an accept or reject

#

i understand both ways

real gorge
#

me too

#

i dont feel like my stats are waitlistable, either in or not, and deferral i dont think so because theres nothing else academically they can get from me at this point

#

since im out of hs

boreal wyvern
#

got into a t5 engineering so washu, t50 engineering, please let me in

#

thats how math works right

real gorge
#

im honestly done guessing if im getting into a school or not because my madison acceptance and fin aid was definitely

#

nothing i expected based off of my profile

sudden urchin
#

they just changed it

toxic cape
real gorge
boreal wyvern
#

uiuc

sudden urchin
#

the a2c icon

real gorge
#

oh yeah

toxic cape
boreal wyvern
#

so im conflicted between the two

#

meh engineering but i can switch into business that is good

#

but uiuc is also a big public school

#

vs private

real gorge
#

reason why i like washu a lot is also because its pretty easy to switch majors and even schools

boreal wyvern
#

u can transfer sophomore year im pretty sure

#

olin is just the one thats harder to switch

real gorge
real gorge
#

?

#

because on the q and a panel there was like 3 ppl who went from cas to olin and they said it was pretty easy

#

they just needed to take like two entry classes

#

for olin

#

and one was like management and i forgot the other one

boreal wyvern
real gorge
#

oh

real gorge
#

the only thing thats hard for washu is beyond boundaries

boreal wyvern
#

yeah

real gorge
#

youd have to wait till the end of the year or end of sophomore year, i forgot which to transfer out

boreal wyvern
#

or bucs

glass dragon
#

oh wai nvm

real gorge
glass dragon
#

ur talking abt transferring

real gorge
#

to get into beyond boundaries is also pretty harsd

#

only 25 ppl get into it freshman year

#

and after that, u have to wait for phase 2 (junior year) to get in

boreal wyvern
#

bucs is pretty hard also

#

i think they said around 35 in it?

real gorge
#

i told my interviewer that one of my main appeals for washu was beyond boundaries

#

and i think she wrote that down

boreal wyvern
#

its 2%

#

for bucs

real gorge
#

yeah thats crazy

eternal flame
real gorge
boreal wyvern
#

someone from my school got in ed1 to bucs

real gorge
#

great job ben

boreal wyvern
#

eternal flame
real gorge
#

real gorge

boreal wyvern

real gorge

#

Right in time for decisions

real gorge
versed inlet
#

Senioritis is starting to creep in with AP stats

#

Got an 80 on the first test of the semester and was like "haha nice"

dry walrus

graceful isle

real gorge
#

i dont get accepted taking these 3 days off really was not a good idea 😭

boreal wyvern

#

real gorge
boreal wyvern
#

it was fun

graceful isle
#

get help, ur crazy

fleet lava
#

i gpot

#

a 60 on my last test

versed inlet
#

My GPA is meaningless now as long as I don't fail any classes

real gorge
#

i failed my test all the time in ap stats

#

but alweays got 100s on my classwortk

#

and everything was weighed the same

#

so like failing a test didnt destroy my grade since it was weighed the same as any other thing we did

#

only time a test weighed on our 20% was the quarter final

boreal wyvern
#

my hw isnt factored in at all

#

its just 100% tests

versed inlet
#

Same

boreal wyvern
#

ap stats is pretty fun

real gorge
#

it was an okay class

versed inlet
#

One of my friends called UChicago "U Chiggy" and I almost choked

#

AP stats isn't bad but I hate writing a full damn essay before every question

scarlet bronze
#

hey pls change names that’s my name thank you😁

scarlet bronze
#

i actually just mailed that to every single one of your aos with a handwritten letter saying how it brought me to tears and how you harmed my psyche

real gorge
#

idek

dry walrus
#

constantly checking this channel tbh

#

WASHU LET ME IN PLEAAASE

real gorge
#

i feel like cryingh

#

i wanna get in sooo bad

#

theyre not lol

#

opposite

#

way below average for an a2cer

#

lower

#

#

but its complicated because my non-cummulative gpas are higher (like way higher, a2c higher)

#

ill explain tomorrow after decisions come out

#

#

#

dry walrus
#

36 🥸

#

my gpa is kinda mid tho

#

😭

#

i wihsh

#

idk tho stats really arent everything

#

its such a gamble

supple pumice
#

They are worth quite a bit tho

dry walrus
#

real

dry walrus
#

it also depends if your ao is in a good mood while reading your app

#

or if theyre waiting for their lunch break

#

or something

supple pumice
#

I hope they read mine on a Friday or Tuesday

#

When I apply ofc

dry walrus
#

why tuesday

supple pumice
#

Because they'll have gotten into the week after monday

dry walrus
#

ah i see

supple pumice
#

Obv not Monday since everyone hates mondays

dry walrus
#

"reason rejected: monday"

supple pumice
#

And not Thursday since it feels like you're just about in arms reach but just not there (imo)

#

This is how I feel at least

dry walrus
#

yeah nah i get what u mean

real gorge
#

if my midyear report shows midterm grades will they value that more than the overall semester grade?

dry walrus
real gorge
#

^

#

the overall semester grade is important. ur midyear grades are just telling colleges that youre still on track and not tanking yourself

dry walrus
#

the only b's ive gotten in hs have been this year 😭

real gorge
#

17 more hours 😻

dry walrus
#

like math and science just tanked :(

supple pumice
#

I was doing excellent in HS but then they added math to science

dry walrus
#

OBH

#

LMAO

#

LMAOAO

real gorge
#

LMAOAOA

supple pumice

#

i had to teach my students long division and fractions

#

and i didnt know how to explain certain things

#

like bro i just do it

dry walrus
#

ew ew ew

real gorge
#

then i had to teach advanced 5th grade math and they were teaching each other better than i could..

#

i loved gov until i saw my ap gov score

#

for the ap exam

#

idek how i got the score i got

#

i swore i was getting a 5

dry walrus
#

i thought i got a 2 and got a 5 🥸

real gorge
#

i thought i got a 5 and got a 1

#

😭

dry walrus
#

HELP

#

thats more impressive than getting a 5

real gorge
#

my only 5 was ap spanish and ap lit

dry walrus
#

DAMN

real gorge
#

ap stats for me

#

was so weird

#

like it wasnt hard but

supple pumice
real gorge
#

LMAOOOO WHAT

#

THAT HAS TO BE ALIE

#

ap stats was an easy class until i started forgetting the calculator commands

#

i was gonna apply for a review

#

because i couldnt believe it

#

i swore they graded me for the wrong exam

dry walrus
#

calc > stats

real gorge
#

because there is no way i got the score i got..

#

calc is a no no

#

i didnt even take precalc

dry walrus
#

😭

real gorge
#

i did alg 1 hon > geo hon & alg2 concurrently > ap stats

#

then done w hs

supple pumice
#

we just had an honors pre cal test

#

The average

versed inlet
supple pumice
#

Was literally failing

real gorge
#

i like bio kinda

#

i wish i was better at math so i couldve liked chem more

versed inlet
#

Fr

dry walrus
#

quite literally did not study for the ap exam and got a 4

#

w ap science

real gorge
#

the only reason i kinda like chem is because i like cooking and banking so food science which is an applied chemistry

supple pumice
#

The pre cal teachers curved test scores for the first time since ever the test scores were so bad

real gorge
#

our teacher was horrible

dry walrus
#

HELP

real gorge
#

she only taught like 2 units i swear

dry walrus
#

omg

#

😭

real gorge
#

then we took the mock ecam

#

and we were like

#

"when the fuck was this even taught"

dry walrus
#

LOLLLL

real gorge
#

i swear she gave us 4th grade science projects the entie year

#

it was so bad

dry walrus
#

jesus

versed inlet
#

We dissected pigs in our AP Bio class lol

real gorge
#

and she was supposedly a biologist then a bio associate professor...

#

like girl stop lying

supple pumice
#

you can be a good scientist but not a good teacher

dry walrus
#

one time we were analyzing genetics with flies and when they died there was this mass fly grave in a giant thing of flynap in a beaker

supple pumice
#

just saying

dry walrus
#

thats the main thing i remmeber from bio

versed inlet
#

We did psychological experiments on pill bugs

supple pumice
#

and I think there's probably a reason she now teaches at a high school and not a college

versed inlet
#

And an experiment where we tried to hatch brine shrimp in different conditions

#

Our group chose sulfuric acid

#

They did not hatch

snow knot
#

Omg lol the new a2c discord PFP is epic

#

Washu

#

W (unless they reject me)

real gorge
#

my best teachers in my aps were:

ap spanish lang (while i speak spanish because its one of my mother tongues, i didnt understand certain things in writing because i just knew what flowed properly) but my teacher was extremely helpful and ended up gwetting a 5 on the exam. my friend who had little to no spanish knowledge ended up getting a 4 and spoke amazing spanish by the end of the year (for context, some natives literally got 3s. i was one of the only 5s)

ap lit (teacher was passionate for teaching it!)

ap gov (she was amazing)

ap stats (great teacher, lost her mom that year)

#

my worst teachers for aps:

#

ap macro (got hit by a car, out like the entire semester. we had to do webex while in class with him). tedious and we literally all like failed the class and exam..

ap bio (read up)

ap lang (literally got a d one semester during covid. was a horrible class and experience)

ap world (rlly boring and sucky. also covid class online).

#

indifferent:

ap psych, ap seminar

#

and im missing a class

versed inlet
#

My ap teachers were all good tbh

real gorge
#

bruh what other ap did i take

versed inlet
#

Taking so many APs you can't name them all lol

#

Then there's me with just 7

dry walrus
#

"just 7"

#

OMG

sudden urchin
#

yeah i have 6 out of 9 available

versed inlet
#

Course rigor is probably the weakest part of my application which sucks tbh

sudden urchin
#

i would've taken more but scheduling

#

very small school

versed inlet
#

7/20+ cursedmoon

#

Plus 2 CC though

sudden urchin
#

i was lucky to get an AP spanish class w/ 1 other kid

versed inlet
#

So kinda 9

#

Kinda

dry walrus
#

i took quite literally as many aps as i can (ill have 14 by the time i graduate if phys c counts as 1) but my school offers wayy too many

sudden urchin
#

im valedictorian tho that's all that matters

sudden urchin
#

anyway i def am not getting in tomorrow but that's ok, a waitlist would be ok

versed inlet
#

Assuming physics I and Calc I are about the same as AP physics 1 and Calc ab

sudden urchin
#

the stressful environment i hear about on reddit for WashU scares me

#

bc that's what i want to avoid

versed inlet
#

If not washu

sudden urchin
#

praying i hope

versed inlet
#

But you have a great shot at it

real gorge
#

whats the difference between district and state gpa

versed inlet
#

Way better than me

#

Luckily I don't think any of my giga sweaty friends applied edii to washu so they won't outshine me as hard

sudden urchin
#

this is my list, ignore LSU, mizzou, macalester, and mich, i was accepted there already

real gorge
#

they do

#

Is it even worth applying to the same reaches as people at your hs with much better stats

#

Me having a minor crisis every time I think about that

sudden urchin
#

unless your school is massive, the AOs may not even remember the school name

versed inlet
#

My school also doesn't rank students

sudden urchin
#

me and the salutatorian both got into michigan

versed inlet
#

Or have Val

sudden urchin
#

this is probably every t30

What need aware until recently does to a mf

#

valedictorian and high act

sudden urchin
#

mine doesn't rank but we have valedictorian

#

we know the top 2 and that's it

real gorge
#

wait guys whats the difference between state and district gpa

sudden urchin
#

i think they notify us in march? but i already know lol, my counselor would tell me

real gorge
#

is state uw and district w

sudden urchin
#

no idea

versed inlet
#

I wonder how bad a unbalanced act is compared to a more normalish one

real gorge
#

because uhh

versed inlet
#

Hwat

#

Cum

real gorge
#

cummulative

versed inlet
#

34 composite, 36 reading 36 English 34 science 30 math

#

And I'm conflicted because Biology is a stem major but it's probably the least math-intensive one

sudden urchin
#

my science is a 33 and im a psych major

#

i just fucking hate that section omg

#

the time i tried the least on it i got the best score

#

now if you want an unbalanced ACT... my best friend's was something like this (SCAD bound🐐 ):
35E 36R 20M 25S

versed inlet
#

Sheeeesh

sudden urchin
#

her first try too lol

#

i just had to read and annotate 26 pages of corporate speech/campaign funding case law from harvard business school

real gorge
#

my math score was like a 16..

#

but my english and reading were like 30 and my science was like mediocre about 23 or 25 i dont remember

versed inlet
#

One of my friends has kind of the opposite problem as me, where he did like 13 AP classes but got Bs in almost all of them

sudden urchin
#

my english has been a 34-36 every time and everything else just jumps around!

#

reading i kinda get bored lmao

versed inlet
#

My first ACT was a 30 and I grinded it up to a 34

sudden urchin
#

31 to 35 for me

versed inlet
#

Halfway through I kinda realized my math wasn't getting any higher so I just focused on other stuff

real gorge
#

i got a 26

30 reading, 31 english, 26 science, 17 math

sudden urchin
#

i thought that but i kept a small notebook of every math problem type + an easy way to solve it

#

like all the ones i'd encounter in old test pdfs and such

#

and on the morning of i reviewed it

versed inlet
#

Well too late for me now lol

#

Should have done that

sudden urchin
#

got my first 30+ score on math and it was a 35

#

got like a 28 on math the next time lmao

#

im not bad at math im just slow

#

if i gave myself a few more mins i'd get it all

versed inlet
#

The one and only single semester C I ever got was freshman geometry honors

#

Our teacher was hilarious but absolutely notoriously difficult

#

Like zero retakes and grade fully dependent on tests when the other geometry honors teacher had UNLIMITED RETAKES

#

Ffs

real gorge
#

16 more hours to go

sudden urchin
#

i feel so bad for salutatorian she's only 2nd place bc her 8th grade algebra teacher gave everyone flat B's

real gorge
#

i got one d for a semester, and four cs for a semester in all of hs

#

post freshman year

#

but i explained why

#

counselor and teacher did too

#

i literally never got lower than an a until sophomore year

#

i think its unfair that my 8th grade grades werent counted

#

i took honors bio 1, honors english 9, and honors algebra 1 in 8th grade and they never transferred when i moved states

#

i had to retake those courses

versed inlet
#

I did Algebra I honors and French I and II in Middle School and while I got credit for them the grades didn't transfer to high school

real gorge
#

mine were supposed to transfer

#

if i stood in my district

#

but i literally had to move states

#

it was awful i was so mad

#

thankfully i got straight as freshman year

versed inlet
#

Wait so I get mixed answers on whether I have enough years of foreign language or not

Like I did up to french 4, and some people say that means I did 4 years, but others say they only matter if I did them in HS which means I did 2 years

real gorge
#

how many years of french did u take

sudden urchin
#

i agree and if it had ruined my valedictorian chances, bc i got flat A's for some courses in 8th, i would have complained

#

if you don't count my 8th grade yr i have like a 4.75 or something

#

the teachers gave everyone flat A's in my classes

#

so dumb

versed inlet
#

But some people from my middle school STARTED in French 4 and did French 5, does that mean they only have 2 despite doing it up to 5?

sudden urchin
#

i was also new to the school and the teachers said A's and A+'s weighed the same! and they didn't!

#

i found out LAST YEAR that they didn't

versed inlet
#

So glad my school doesn't report + or -

sudden urchin
#

i have a similar issue w/ my spanish

#

i tested out of spanish II in 8th grade so i could take spanish III in 9th

real gorge
#

if u took 2 years of foreign language in hs, then you took to years, regardless of the course type

sudden urchin
#

and was told it'd go on my transcript but it wasn't lol

real gorge
#

i took spanish 2, 3 honors, and ap spanish lang (considered 4), and only got 3 years of same foreign language. i did a year of french 1 so i got 4 total

versed inlet
#

I also remember earlier this year feeling pretty happy because I got the illinois state scholar award, and I was walking down to grab my certificate from my counselor and she had like a half inch thick stack of other people's ones cursedmoon

supple pumice
#

On a side note what is AP Macro since my school doesn't have that

#

Anyways I should go study grind APUSH

sudden urchin
#

macroeconomics

sudden urchin
#

i miss APUSH

real gorge
#

but he taught it for like two weeks and it was still bad

sudden urchin
#

ap gov is so... 💀

real gorge
#

like his teaching method is very...

#

not good

sudden urchin
#

but at least i get to infodump about niche political things i know

supple pumice
#

So I reserve judgement

rotund delta
#

Omg is washU ed2 out??

#

I just noticed the decision dates lolll

supple pumice
#

On the other hand my Alg II H teacher was an amazing teacher until her baby had a seizure and she left for the rest of the year to take care of that

sudden urchin
#

no

supple pumice
#

And I cannot ever learn from videos

supple pumice
#

And AP Econ

sudden urchin
#

it should not be a hard class

supple pumice
#

And I personally want to take AP Euro since I like European history

sudden urchin
#

it's just basic civics and the textbooks are typically like middle school tier

supple pumice
#

So I'm going to have like 3 social studeis AP

sudden urchin
#

like APUSH

#

the AP Euro textbook is insanely dense

#

that was my first AP too

supple pumice
#

My first AP was Princ. of Comp Sci

#

Hated that

#

So

#

Much

sudden urchin
#

if you like euro history then take that

#

it's fun if you enjoy it

#

my problem is i only like the stuff from like 1850-present

#

mostly 1900s-present

supple pumice
#

I'd rather get taught by a dying dog than that AP Princ. Comp Sci teacher again

sudden urchin
#

i like the art tho

#

which helped

supple pumice
#

Not a fan of cultural stuff

sudden urchin
#

i was the opposite

real gorge
rotund delta
#

Damn

supple pumice
#

Like War of Roses, Black Plague, HRE, 100 Years War = cacheck

Avignon Papacy, specific people, Donation of Constantine = ❌

supple pumice
#

I don't like learning about Industry for a month

sudden urchin
#

it's considered world history

#

i'm also the opposite, i only care from industrial onward

#

i go crazy for red scare shit too

supple pumice
#

Okay like Cold War is cool

#

So are WWI/II

#

My biggest hate of history in general

#

Is every single industrial revolution

sudden urchin
#

morbid fascination w/ the causes of our current distress

supple pumice
#

I just hate them

#

I will go study apush and then sleep

Na bro it's the ultimate strat. Same. I mean to tbh it's probably realistic for 80% of us sadly

#

Hurt applying ED and only having 20% rate

fleet lava
#

That’s not bad for Ed 2 honestly

#

Vandy ed2 is 10%

snow knot

I got the infamous washu reddit post locked and loaded to read when I get rejected

snow knot
#

Ok 20 not bad

graceful isle
fleet lava
#

emory and Bostonu are a little higher

#

But washu way better than those

sudden urchin
#

i very nearly didn't EDII so it won't hurt me that bad

sudden urchin
#

but i think it'll be more of an ego thing for me

graceful isle
sudden urchin
#

everyone knows it's coming today and my friends want to gather around me to see it and idk how to explain to them it probably will not be good

fleet lava

My ego is already in the trenches after getting 0/3 in the early round

sudden urchin

no but im RD USC

graceful isle

no deferred both

fleet lava

#

Got deferred both and have no trust in my app anymore 😭

sudden urchin
#

michigan accepting me makes me think i won't get into anything higher or lower than that

#

if that makes sense

#

bc they're yield-y too

for complete non-decided decisions they look like this

fleet lava
real gorge

yeah basically the decisions are uploaded into the backend to release at the time given

visual turret

when it says decided it just means they are preparing the publicize

real gorge

yeah

fleet lava

When I try to create an account

It says it’s “temporarily unavailable”

for slate

visual turret

you don’t need one, it’s fine

#

what tf is slate

visual turret
#

it really won’t give you any additional information

real gorge
#

its the college admissions system that most colleges use

#

if ur in hs, it would usually have high school visits,

#

colleges u applied tracker, etc

fleet lava

ahhh

ok so i got into uw madison and their gpa acceptance rate for my gpa was 3.60% which is similar to washu so crossing my fingers??

u can track that?

real gorge

they automatically do it

its the system they have all of ur materials in

Can it be anytime from now on?😭

real gorge

yeah it can but pretty much within the next hour and a half

versed inlet
#

I'm pretty sure UIUC sent there's out like 20 minutes before the posted time for EA

graceful isle
#

yea it was out rly early

real gorge
#

personally i think the decisions will come out at 4:30cst because the admissions office closes at 4cst

#

and usually when schools release on friday (or most days), they do it after offices close

sterile finch
#

Should I text my friend who is applying ed2 and say good luck

yes

Or is that stressful

If someone said good luck to you now how would you feel
