University of Rochester (2022-2023)

[vapid bough]

*17th

[restive shoal]

Yeah 17 looks most likely.

[muted arch]

I had my best Interview with this school 😭
URoch please let me innnnnn😭🤲

[stark ledge]

U roch best school

[stark ledge]

They say that interviews are really important to them so that’s good!!!!

[hybrid field]

oh is that so

Cuz I had my best interview here too

Pls accept me

[muted arch]

It's one of my top choices
Really keeping my fingers crossed 🤞

[muted arch]

My interviewer was so nice
I was literally panicking few minutes to the interview because of unstable internet connection but as soon as I started the interview, her vibe just changed the whole atmosphere.
I laughed the whole time as we both cracked jokes and talked about stuffs at URoch like the lamp you're given during the winter and how she enjoyed playing in the snow with her friends.

URoch please let me innnn😭

[hybrid field]

Wow! That sounds great

I realized my interviewer was a theater kid like me

I asked him for advice about how to get involved

It was super conversational

He was funny too

[shadow vortex]

fr

this is making me so sad :(

[stark ledge]

I’m sorry ): I can give you a bunch or reasons as to why it’s bad if you want!

[shadow vortex]

😭

[vapid bough]

reason 1: L aid

[muted arch]

This!
Almost like I wasn't talking to an adult.

[muted arch]

Their aid is hit or miss😓

[hybrid field]

pls let it work out for everyone here

pls let the aid be enough

[muted arch]

Hopefully it does.
Seems you applied to a handful of LACs too

[hybrid field]

I did!

[cerulean socket]

Does university of Rochester typically announce when decisions release beforehand or does it just drop?

[hybrid field]

no clue

[stark ledge]

They didn’t email me for ed2

I don’t think they give specific dates

But pro tip don’t wait for an email just check because they literally didn’t email me saying there was a status update 😭

[cerulean socket]

Thx i’ll at my status portal around ion know like 8 pm est on the 17th maybe sumn will be there

[serene stump]

they did email me

and i'm RD

not sure

[hybrid field]

Yeah

[hybrid field]

Wait they did? Where

Did they confirm?

[serene stump]

uh

no this was from last year

i got emailed really early

february 2n

2nd

[hybrid field]

oh wow

[vapid bough]

The rizzler

[hybrid field]

poli best of luck w both bu and uroch!! May best results come to both of us

[vapid bough]

Thanks! U too!

Lmk ur results

[hybrid field]

yes!! will do

[serene stump]

wait bee

[hybrid field]

yeah?

[serene stump]

did u get into caltech?

[hybrid field]

no I didn’t

i didn’t apply

[serene stump]

ah ik

ok

cuz someone pinged ur name on caltech acceptance

so i thought

[hybrid field]

oh did they? nope nope, must’ve been accident

[serene stump]

ah okok

[stark ledge]

@serene stump what are your favorite things to do in the Rochester area?

Also what’s the best dining hall

[serene stump]

best dining hall is (arguably) douggy

though danforth is AMAZING on good days

[serene stump]

there's this really nice restaurant that uh

a dumpling house

just look it up

it's amazing

me and my friends go there all the time

also COLLEGE TOWNNN

thrifting n stuff

though i haven't done that much bc semi busy

you can also take a 3ish hour bus ride to vancouver

for pretty cheap price

if u are looking forward to that

[stark ledge]

I’m so excited to try them all!!

Is the pit any good

I remember I got a soda there when I visited and it was so good

They had the fancy machine

[serene stump]

pit is good, though my favorite part is the rocky’s

cuz they always have a solid sub

[stark ledge]

I LOVE dumplings

[serene stump]

as an asian person myself i have to say the cultural foods at pitt are very mid

[stark ledge]

Like I don’t think you understand

[serene stump]

the wok and whatnot are VERY mid

there’s also a chipotle like station

which is mid mid mid

but they do have very fire fries

[serene stump]

dude, the dumpling house is AMAZING

when u go there

order their xiaolongbao

and then take a picture and send it

cuz i’m gonna miss it once i transfer

[stark ledge]

orrrrrr you could not transfer and we could go together!

[serene stump]

sadly probably won’t happen

i hope you enjoy though

[stark ledge]

[vapid bough]

its ok im hopefully coming to roch

🫰

[hybrid field]

URoch manifesting manifesting

URoch why the fuck do you not announce when you’re out

[serene stump]

it’s very much a luck based thing

mine got announced so early last year

[hybrid field]

When

[red bane]

I'll rely on this thread to know when decisions come out

[hybrid field]

Yeah me too

[hybrid field]

I wish URoch gave the time goddamnit

I’m literally gonna check all day

[shadow vortex]

@serene stump i’m visiting rochester for RIT, but might come to UR if i have any extra time. Where do you recommend for food in the city?

[river isle]

3 hours across north america is crazy 😭

[serene stump]

there’s apparently a road that’s filled with restaurants

though i’d still have to look into that

haven’t had the chance yet

[serene stump]

feb 1st

💀

rd btw

[wispy dragon]

I talked w director of campus programs and admitted students day is April 1

They haven’t come out w that info yet bc rd isn’t out but I thought it could be useful for those who have gotten in already bc plane tickets and planning

[hybrid field]

WHAT

aaa

[serene stump]

yeah it's very much random

[hybrid field]

that. Kinda suggests they got more applicants this year huh

[serene stump]

last year they had a LOT of applicants

and a lot of acceptances

so maybe they're decreasing their acceptances slightly? no clue, it's very much based on luck

[hybrid field]

hmmmm

yea okay

wow I wish I knew my decision for URoch a month ago

[serene stump]

yeah i got it so early that i was chillin for most of my senior year

but there's also not as much to look forward to

[reef verge]

Did they give you good aid ?

Full need they say but idk

[serene stump]

nah

the aid is very much

either amazing

or horrible

partially why im transferring

if im paying this much i might as well be going to a top school 💀

[hybrid field]

i mean

you are

URoch is t50

[vapid bough]

T40

[stark ledge]

They kinda did

Announce it I mean

There are 4 different admitted student days

April first is just one of them

[wispy dragon]

Ooh ok

Last time I looked it was tbd everywhere lol

But maybe I’m bad at looking

[shadow vortex]

fr that was exactly my point

like idk why some colleges have very bad profs, bad academics, grade deflation, and other negative aspects but cost so much

[plush compass]

when do the decisions come out?

also what’s the weekend scene like at rochester?

are there a lot of parties?

[hybrid field]

The seventeenth apparently

Life q direct to souppy

Who is current student

[plush compass]

@serene stump

[serene stump]

depends on greek life, who you hang out with, and where on campus you are

ranging from many parties to no parties

[stark ledge]

Look at this school.

This is INSANE

[serene stump]

oh yeah i love rush rhees

you can see it from anywhere on campus

which is particular helpful to me

because i have no sense of direction otherwise

[stark ledge]

It’s just so beautiful

The campus is just insane

[stark ledge]

That’ll be helpful when I’m still trying to figure out how to get around campus haha

[serene stump]

don't worry dude

i'm literally the most directionless person

you will ever meet

but even i think the campus is easy to get around

get used to the tunnels in the fall though!

will be really helpful once winter hits

[stark ledge]

Yes!!!!!

Oh my gosh I’m so excited to paint the walls of them during orientation

[serene stump]

oh btw

if you join an acapella group

[stark ledge]

👁️

[serene stump]

we do this really cool thing

where we spend a day

just painting over a specific section of the wall

with a cool show poster

oh we also spent a day or 2 filming a really funny video for the show

every semester

[stark ledge]

That’s so cool?????

[serene stump]

i'd send you a pic of our show

[stark ledge]

that sounds so special

[serene stump]

but there's some other ppl in the photo

and idk if they gave perm yet

[serene stump]

yes! it's awesome

i can swing by the tunnels later and take a pic for you

[serene stump]

again, if you can get into an acapella group

go for it

it's an unforgettable experience

and close bonds

[stark ledge]

I really hope I get into one

[serene stump]

i'm biased to my own group

but

[stark ledge]

I don’t think I’ve seen a college as passionate about acapella as Rochester

[serene stump]

trebellious is also awesome

[stark ledge]

I actually wrote a little about it in my why Rochester essay haha

[serene stump]

good good

vp can be intimidating

but if you survive the auditions

youll be good

[stark ledge]

does everyone in the groups have like

really good voices?

Like is everyone exceptionally talented

Because I love singing and I’m like talented at music but my voice isn’t like incredible

[serene stump]

depends on your definition, but for mixed groups there's usually a stricter entry barrier for girls than compared to boys

cuz more girls audition

[serene stump]

dw my voice also isn't incredible

if you need help w auditions i can help a lil bit

maybe sneak in a lil bit of forbidden knowledge

after all i had to judge a few folks this winter haha

[stark ledge]

ooh I would feel so powerful

[serene stump]

the only unfortunate thing for u is that ill be gone by next fall

or else you could probably get my vote

[stark ledge]

I still can’t believe it

[serene stump]

im sorryyy

i'll lyk where i end up

[wispy dragon]

Omgggg when I went I saw this all boys group

Something like midnight ??

And tribellius if that’s how u spell it

They were so good

[serene stump]

midnight ramblers

[wispy dragon]

I saw them during the multicultural show I’m so glad my host took me there

YES YES

they were cool

[serene stump]

they're the most tryhard group on campus

but their quality is AMAZING

they did a glimpse of us this fall and it was beautiful

[wispy dragon]

OMG BY JOJI?!?$

THATS IS

I WOULD CRY

they did happier than ever and the awesomest transition to traitor and I was like woowwwww

I also saw a bunch of dance groups I think I might join the Bollywood dance group

Only problem is I have no experience…

[serene stump]

a lot of the groups do really cool songs

our group was considering golden hour

[wispy dragon]

R u a co ed

group

[serene stump]

but we're doing a few diff songs

ya ya

[wispy dragon]

That’s so exciting

[serene stump]

our group does a lot of harry styles hozier conan gray that kinda stuff

[wispy dragon]

R there specific performances for ur groups or do y’all just try to find opportunities to perform wherever

[serene stump]

and then usually a few old songs to please the boomers

[serene stump]

both

we both performer wherever and each have our own show

[wispy dragon]

Omg I want to join a group so bad but my mom thinks I’m bad at singing 🥲🥲

But my friends think I’m good LOL

[serene stump]

there's actually a thing called the "aca-pas where you can go to all of the shows for really cheap

hey dude, if any of y'all need help with acapella syuff

i can help you practice and give tips if you're really down for it

sadly i won't be judging next fall but, again

i know a fair amount of info

[wispy dragon]

That’s so sweet aww thank u

I think my parents want me to dance rather than sing eek

[serene stump]

for dance there's also rlly cool things here

there's a kpop dance group here

who's so sick

rice crew

[wispy dragon]

I have no experience but I rly want to join some of the groups

[serene stump]

there's also a hop hop dance group

[hybrid field]

Souppy you’re getting me so wxcited about URoch

[wispy dragon]

Or get involved in dance somehow

[serene stump]

forgot their name

[serene stump]

hey man, gotta hype up my school even if i'm going

dw all the dance groups have sessions to teach u

[wispy dragon]

can u tell us some unideal things abt uroch lol

[serene stump]

but if u wanna go perform w them

[serene stump]

THE COST

AHHH

unless you got aid

then in which case

it's pretty awesome

[wispy dragon]

Yeah 😦 I’m in a weird position where I qualify for no aid but I can’t afford to pay everything

[serene stump]

other than that some programs r not as good

for an example i'm a cs major and those can be limited

[wispy dragon]

Like which

[serene stump]

urochester has really good programs and mid ones

[wispy dragon]

I heard that no matter which major u r u can easily switch

[serene stump]

the engineering has been known for mid

but any humanities or bio or poli sci it's really good

[serene stump]

yeah dude ive already switched 3 times

[wispy dragon]

Is rems alright

[serene stump]

at the beginning of fall

[serene stump]

if you can get into rems

[wispy dragon]

I did

[serene stump]

then it's probably one of the best things ever

YOU DID?

[wispy dragon]

I did

[serene stump]

ok ur chillin

[wispy dragon]

😙😙

[serene stump]

for the next 8 years

[wispy dragon]

like lowkey i like it more than brown

[serene stump]

good lord congrats

that stuff is INSANE to get into

did you also get into brown?

[wispy dragon]

It was … hard

No brown hasn’t come out yet but I like rems more than Plme

Dude

I saw some of rhe resumes of the ppl I was competing against

They were five pages long

[serene stump]

anyone that can get into those BSMD programs have my respect

actually insanity to get into

i assume rems give aid, right?

there was another rems girl here

[wispy dragon]

Lmao might’ve been me

Hahha

I got 17k per year when accepted

[serene stump]

oh did you change your name/pfp

[wispy dragon]

So one year paid for?

[serene stump]

better aid than i get

[wispy dragon]

No, I’ve always had my dumb name and duck pic lol

[serene stump]

but this is still a somewhat pricy school

[wispy dragon]

yeah but yk im here for 7 more years beyond that one year

So it’s scary

like

[hybrid field]

Oh shit

[wispy dragon]

Debt debt debt

[hybrid field]

Congrats Dr. Sophia

[wispy dragon]

AWWW STOP IT

[serene stump]

fr bro

BSMD is the dream

for all the med students

[wispy dragon]

I think I’m just happy bc like

[hybrid field]

Better than med school lmfao

[wispy dragon]

I don’t have a long resume

I have two ECs

one at school one out of school

[serene stump]

sincerity won them over

[wispy dragon]

I think the problem was so many applicants were just BRAGGINF THE WHOLE TIMEE

like STOP I don’t care that u shadowed Emory man

[hybrid field]

Not for me I get stir crazy. Honestly though I would’ve shot my shot if I didn’t think my ECs didn’t show enough experience

[hybrid field]

:( unfortunately that’s the game a lot of the time

[wispy dragon]

Yk bsmds are good but not gold

If they were so good more would be coming out but instead they’re collapsing

That’s what my mom said to me when I get rejected from five

[serene stump]

oh also

there's one bad thing abt rochester

the winters

get ready for some cold

cuz

i mean i was used to cold

so it wasn't as bad

[hybrid field]

They’re great I think just hard as hell, cuz you’re in the same place so long

[serene stump]

but it's WIMDY here

[hybrid field]

Oh rip

that’s not worse than anything I already deal with though

istg one time the wind nearly picked me up

[wispy dragon]

Yeah ok so someone actually told me to not apply to rems

And I have no chance

And it’s too late

[serene stump]

bsmd is collapsing?

why

they're so popular

[hybrid field]

prolly cuz not enough students can make it thru???

[wispy dragon]

So northwestern hpme

The inside scoop is that there was a large inequity in admission

[hybrid field]

what was it sophia

[wispy dragon]

Bc so many shadowing opportunities and research stems from connection

[serene stump]

p sure rems is a top tier BSMD program too

so

you're chillin

[wispy dragon]

at least that’s what I have heard

[serene stump]

northwestern moment

i'm applying to that school too

[wispy dragon]

As soon as I got in my mom was like “ ur life isn’t set now u gotta work even harder” and I was like nahahdhoskadoandkwsmam

AHHHHHHH

[serene stump]

[wispy dragon]

me too

[serene stump]

asian parent?

[wispy dragon]

Northwestern for bme bc bme was back up

[hybrid field]

yea

[serene stump]

sounds like an asian parent

[wispy dragon]

Yes ofc

[serene stump]

don't pressure yourself too hard

live your life

[hybrid field]

:(( u only rly have to prep for residency and that’s years off

[serene stump]

enjoy your independence

i have rlly chill asian parents but still just good advice

[hybrid field]

you can just live life as long as ur doing well in ur classes

[serene stump]

ur pretty much set tho

kekw

also the best thing abt rems is @wispy dragon

since it's not accelerated

you don't need to spend extra time

[wispy dragon]

Yeah fs

[serene stump]

and your summer they supply u with clinical/research opportunities

which is insane

[hybrid field]

that’s so crazy

[wispy dragon]

I think the best thing for me is that they seem to genuinely care

Abt me

And no mcat

Like

[serene stump]

and since rochester has no core curriculum

[wispy dragon]

Yes CLUSTERSSSS

[serene stump]

you can literally take whatever you want to try

[wispy dragon]

so excited

[serene stump]

it's insane

alright i'm not your parents

but

you're pretty set dude

imo

[wispy dragon]

my mom was also like “but don’t do stupid classes tho” so I’m limited to Spanish and business

But I want to do med anthropology

And all this STUFF

YET

my MOTHER

Issok

[serene stump]

just do it mannn

[wispy dragon]

she just wants me to graduate as this all powerful doctor

[serene stump]

asian parent syndrome

try the things you wanna

acapella anthro

whatever you want dude

it's college

it's your life

[wispy dragon]

🥹☺️ i shall

At the end of the day, she won’t be so close to me anymore

[serene stump]

what are ur parents gonna do if u try anthro

be angry?

don't worry

[wispy dragon]

I love her advice but like I want to explore I think she’s just scared that I’ll stop working hard bc I think my life is set and I got into med school already

Like I know I won’t stop working hard

[serene stump]

obv obv

also a devoted aca fan i still recommend singing

[wispy dragon]

But she has to realize I don’t have to do dumb stuff to prove myself anymore so like fuck it I can sing

[serene stump]

if ur not confident there's also choirs here

so many options

[wispy dragon]

can I cook anywhere

I had Susan b Anthony food from dining hall

Didn’t love it

I want to cook lmao

[serene stump]

oh yeah

food is mid here

sadly

[wispy dragon]

Is there a kitchen in every dorm house thingy

I like the idea of buying ingredients and just tossing it up by myself lol

[hybrid field]

just don’t tell her what classes ur taking 💀

[serene stump]

uhhh

not every i don't think

[hybrid field]

like technically she doesn’t have say

[hybrid field]

Oh yikes

[serene stump]

true

[hybrid field]

Is there a place to store food?

[serene stump]

uhhhhhh

...not really?

but you really only have to deal with this freshmen year

[hybrid field]

Like a fridge is what I mean

[serene stump]

most folks go to suites in sophomore

[hybrid field]

no fridge? Can u have ur own fridge ?

[serene stump]

yes

but they don't provide you with one

is what i'm saying

[hybrid field]

okay. Ugh that’s so expensive but I rly can’t

[wispy dragon]

My host is freshman she has fridge and a single

[hybrid field]

Yea yea gotchu

[serene stump]

some of my friends have like

mini fridge

[wispy dragon]

I jusf

Need a stove

[hybrid field]

I’d get a minifridge yeah that’d be enough

[wispy dragon]

😦

[serene stump]

there's a stove in genesse

[hybrid field]

Just need that and a microwave

[wispy dragon]

Genes se omg

[serene stump]

which is the hall i'm in

[stark ledge]

PRAYING for genese

[wispy dragon]

I want to be in there

[serene stump]

if you can choose btw go genesse

[stark ledge]

I’m still upset about the no Ed priority thing.

[wispy dragon]

PRAYING TOGETHER

Ye no u deserve it I mean u Ed like what

[serene stump]

the funny thing is

genesse is so good that

if you ever tell people on campus you're from genny

their first response is universally "fuck you"

[stark ledge]

😔

[serene stump]

[wispy dragon]

omggg

[serene stump]

it's so funny

[stark ledge]

I would kill to be at genese

I was so excited about Ed because my tour guides told us that Ed students like got to pick

[serene stump]

i actually got the luckiest package to rochetser

[stark ledge]

And they stopped that this year I guess??

[serene stump]

early admit for an RD

[wispy dragon]

That sucks ugh

[serene stump]

and random housing in genesse

[serene stump]

yeah rip

[wispy dragon]

I didnt ed but i feel ur pain

[hybrid field]

Wow rly nice

[wispy dragon]

R sophomores still in dorms or nah

[hybrid field]

I mean I don’t think ED students should get first pick lmfao

[serene stump]

they do have a commitment

and cant reject financial

i think it's fair

[hybrid field]

Wdym they can’t reject financial

[serene stump]

as in like

you have less a say in finaid

but i think you can reject for financial

[wispy dragon]

Well if u ed then u gotta accept what they give u bc ur committed (or ur gonna go)

I think

[serene stump]

don't rememb

my ED was amherst and bowdoin

[hybrid field]

No it has to be financially feasible isn’t it? Like you can get out of ED if u can’t pay?

[serene stump]

LACs are so cruel

[serene stump]

true

but like

if it's expensive

but you can pay it

you have to go

[hybrid field]

compare that for RD for me

I’m rly not getting how ED’ers are worse off financially

[wispy dragon]

I’m debating on if I should get a job this summer

[serene stump]

i just choked

[wispy dragon]

Idk to pay something off even if it’s to set aside money for leisure activities

[serene stump]

i just chilled

needed the break

[wispy dragon]

I feel burnt out ngl

[hybrid field]

okay do something brainless

[serene stump]

go easy on yourself chief

get some good rest

[wispy dragon]

But nobody in my fam thinks burnout is real so early lol

[hybrid field]

go ez on urself. Do activities at the local library maybe

[serene stump]

asian family moment...

[hybrid field]

💀 hate immigrant parents

[wispy dragon]

No literally

I got the best from both worlds one is Indian the other Vietnamese

So

Double the anxiety

[hybrid field]

Yikes

[serene stump]

oh sheesh

that's an intense combination

my chinese parents r actually rlly chill

which is awesome

[hybrid field]

nice

[wispy dragon]

My parents are relatively chill

Keyword

Relatively

My mom played a big role in motivating me in high school and I’m rly lucky to have my dad bc he knows how med school works

But it’s still hard

Like

I’m in physics c rn and multivariable calc so

Life is a struggle

[serene stump]

physics c gave me trauma

not bc of the subject

but the teacher

chose cs just so i don't have to do physics 💀

[vapid bough]

[hybrid field]

@serene stump

[serene stump]

[serene stump]

as someone at urochester

i have no clue

[vapid bough]

😂

[hybrid field]

lmfao if they came out today that’d be nice

[charred swallow]

I just called the admissions office and asked

The lady had to go ask someone and then she came back and said that they're still making decisions and they haven't decided on a notification date yet

she said within the next 2 weeks

@hybrid field @red bane @vapid bough etc.

[restive shoal]

Damn. This means that they aren’t releasing their decisions this Friday.

[red bane]

thats sick 😭

i hate waiting!!!

[hybrid field]

What the fuck I was gearing up for this emotionally noooooo

thanks though ;-; appreciate the notification

[charred swallow]

although last year it released on 18th right? so like, idk why it's apparently taking so much longer

maybe she was just BSing me I'm not sure

We'll see I guess

[hybrid field]

it’s possible

they don’t rly email u w portal update, right? You just need to check?

[charred swallow]

I mean she kinda said "I'm not sure let me go ask" and came back after a couple minutes though

im thinking maybe they wanna be safe and not confirm anything officially

[charred swallow]

yeah

[hybrid field]

but anyways keep expectations low ig

[vapid bough]

😭 bruh

hopefully she was bs-ing

[hybrid field]

PLEASE

this saying “wait actually not Friday”

[charred swallow]

But I’m so happy with Rochester

[fickle owl]

🙏

[stark ledge]

It’s the prettiest place ever

[fickle owl]

even if I don't end up committing

it'll be a fun Amtrak ride nonetheless

[stark ledge]

I love the amtrak so much

I’m never as productive as I am on the amtrak

[fickle owl]

what's your major?

[stark ledge]

Cause I sent them an update like a couple days ago

💀

[vapid bough]

Someone sent a screenshot of css saying the financial aid awards drop on the 17th

[red bane]

Boutta give everyone the ‘Thank you for applying to the University of Rochester. This year, the admissions committee received a record breaking number of applications…’

[restive shoal]

Yep the css award date has been showing 17th since the start.

[vapid bough]

[shut quarry]

"approximate date"

[cerulean ledge]

[drowsy cloak]

[drowsy cloak]

does anyones portal have enroll now on it?? mine shows it and i didnt have that before

[tame tartan]

[drowsy cloak]

DO YOU THINK THEY ACCIDENTALLY LEAKED

[tame tartan]

unless everyone has that

we need to get some more people to check

[drowsy cloak]

mhmhm

[tame tartan]

it might officially be coming out later today anyways then

[tame tartan]

yep same

[drowsy cloak]

i clicked the enroll thing and it did nothing

[hybrid field]

AAAA I ALSO HAVE IT

[tame tartan]

[tame tartan]

portal glitches been ruining all my surprises lately

[restive shoal]

Does any international have the enroll now button?

[green arrow]

i don't not sure abt the other

[drowsy cloak]

augh i lowk wanna call n hear their explanation

[restive shoal]

I don’t have it too

[tame tartan]

well either way i think that button means decisions will be very soon

so let’s not get ahead of ourselves

[restive shoal]

Yeah I am guessing that they will release today.

[tame tartan]

yep same

[restive shoal]

They have uploaded all the decisions if the enroll now button can be seen.

[hybrid field]

Yooo that’s crazy

[drowsy cloak]

oh lord

imagine the button is actually telling us we got rejected

no jkjk

[green arrow]

ig the theory is true though cuz my slate has stopped updating since 6th march a rejection is reasonable to speculate

[uneven latch]

i don’t have it either as an intl guys i’m going to cry

[restive shoal]

We all probably got rejected. Cries in sad intl tears

[analog pond]

same

[tame tartan]

decisions will be out soon anyways do not fret

computers are just crazy zee sometimes

[analog pond]

🤞

[uneven latch]

but idk when i will fret until i pull all of my hair out😭😭😭

[green arrow]

wait what do the last updated time for your uroch slate say

[red bane]

MINE HAS ENROLL NOW

hopefully thats a good sign

[restive shoal]

I hope so but feels like copium now

[drowsy cloak]

[restive shoal]

I have neither lol.

[red bane]

i see both

[restive shoal]

Probably reject then.

[drowsy cloak]

i only have enroll now

[restive shoal]

This seems all too confusing. I will just log off and wait till decisions.

[red bane]

i have both test scores & enroll now

[drowsy cloak]

[red bane]

im so scared guys!!!

[tame tartan]

[drowsy cloak]

yes pls

i still have this on my main thing

[red bane]

im at school rn dont mind the shitty laptop😭😭

[drowsy cloak]

oh what the heck

[red bane]

[drowsy cloak]

OH YA

[red bane]

[drowsy cloak]

lmaooo

[vivid fractal]

i have the enroll now button

does that mean i got in?

[red bane]

[wispy dragon]

[red bane]

i have enroll now but not test scores and i submitted test scores

[drowsy cloak]

we're not sure yet but praying it means that

[red bane]

NO FUCKINGG WAYYY

however i am on mobile so might be on desktop

[wispy dragon]

No assumption tho guys

[vivid fractal]

Oh my God

[wispy dragon]

Let’s all breatheeeee

[vivid fractal]

guys if i got in i’ll dieeee

it’s my top target

[wispy dragon]

calmmmmm

Rooting for all of u

[vivid fractal]

if it’s even a target idk

[restive shoal]

I just need to find an intl who has the enroll now button. Then I will be sure of my rejection.

[drowsy cloak]

https://tenor.com/view/wawa-cat-but-keep-on-praying-they-cannot-be-changed-but-keept-on-praying-goodbye-wawa-cat-gif-26493481

[vivid fractal]

maybe it’s a reach???

[red bane]

its a reach!!!! i think bc its a t50

[wispy dragon]

It’s acceptance rate is like 40 right

[red bane]

my first reach!!!!

yessss

[wispy dragon]

yayy

[vivid fractal]

omg NO WAY

[red bane]

I am intl and I don’t have it

[vivid fractal]

then my first reach acceptance????

this is crazy

esp bc i want to do english and theater and a cappella and they have amazing opportunities there

[wispy dragon]

wait tho I thought reach is for a school w less than 25% acceptance rate

[uneven latch]

yess please any intl tell us if you got the enroll bottom so i can kms rn🙏🏻🙏🏻

[wispy dragon]

But ig definition is fluid and diff for everyone

[drowsy cloak]

im praying this enroll now thing is true ive been wanting roch since freshman year LOL

[restive shoal]

Yeah I am yet to find an intl who has the enroll now button. I asked in intl2usa too.

[wispy dragon]

Dude acapella is insane there

I saw so many groups

[sturdy basin]

i have the enroll now button

[tame tartan]

oh huh interesting

[vivid fractal]

reach IMO isn’t entirely acceptance rate bc obviously more people apply to more well known schools and rochester is a bit lowkey

[drowsy cloak]

it was 29.6%

[vivid fractal]

but its admissions is rly competitive

[analog pond]

intls having nothing together:

[tame tartan]

did you send an official score report?

[vivid fractal]

I MNOW

[red bane]

yesyes

[wispy dragon]

WAIT RLY? for acceptance rate?! Why does internet show 40

[drowsy cloak]

https://www.rochester.edu/newscenter/class-of-2022-is-most-selective-ever-with-record-applications-322122/

[red bane]

thru collegebord

[tame tartan]

ooo maybe it’s that

cause i sent unofficial

[wispy dragon]

Damn wait I didn’t realize it was so selective

[tame tartan]

perhaps that’s like some weird glitch that shows what the official test score file looks like on their end

[restive shoal]

Are you intl? Congrats on getting in

[sturdy basin]

no. domestic

[tame tartan]

let’s not say congrats yet please

[drowsy cloak]

im domestic 2 and have it

[tame tartan]

this is just speculation

[sturdy basin]

yeah, i dont want to jinx it

[tame tartan]

(and speculation i should be stopping )

[rustic wren]

mine also has enroll now 🤯 (domestic)

[red bane]

Intl and don't have it

[tame tartan]

so it very well just could be a random glitch

[red bane]

Really hope so

[wispy dragon]

it really could be bc some of my friends who were accepted along w me didn’t recall seeing it until after accepted

[rustic wren]

did anyone press the button

[drowsy cloak]

aughhh maybe they drop at 1 pst or 12 pst

i did press it

[red bane]

https://tenor.com/view/lilo-and-stitch-stitch-crying-gif-19152276
