is sdsu cs competitive?
like to get into or when ur there
cuz i mean to get into i think admission are already over
To get in
My application was first withdrawn until recently and now its still under review😭
why??
i mean i got into the cs program
i had a 4.1-4.2 gpa in the csu thing
took 10 aps
1 honors
They asked for transcripts and I submitted them back in December but they didn’t process them until after that deadline
Ohh congrats
yup that’s where i’m headed after all uc rejections
ucs are such a gamble atp
I literally applied comp sci to the ucs and got waitlisted only at ucsc 💔
But honestly ucsc has a beautiful campus so not mad abt it
real
oh
i think i might commit to sjsu
should i go to admitted students day
nvm i cant make it LMAOOO
i don’t know bout that
if u like nature then yeah
was i gonna go? absolutely yes (now that i know im rejected its a no)
bro cal poly slo fr ghosted me
My gpa was way too high for a rejection it’s just yield protection 🥱
Didnt you get in💀
little do they know i wanted to go there and that i wouldn’t get accepted anywhere better
honors
Oh
this kid is waiting for honors while im still waiting for whether i got in or not
this is insane

idek what to do if i get rejected
bruh what
💀did u call me a kid
yes
looks like ur staying at the nerd area
good luck with the competition
NAH I GOT SJSU AWHILE AGO
it just got overshadowed by everything else
i wish i could get smt else but ive mentally committed to sjsu
good uni regardless
hey guys am i correct that on the cal state application they said not to include grades such as homeroom?
theyre just jealous
sjsu is insane :D
congratssss!!!!
Ong
Never in a million years did i think id not make a csu (all changed when i realized how tough cs was)
Real
Rejections left and right
bruh
did u guys get a text msg from cal poly slo about a cs program?
YESSS 🎉
Yeah I think so. I know you weren’t supposed to put pe on there, might have been only a-g coursework
i thought so too, thanks
huh ⁉️
which colleges do we actually talk about here
slo, sjsu, csulb, and sdsu
occasionally cp pomona
maybe chico
real
ESS JAY ESS YOO
i agree
ESS DEE ESS YOO
w name
if i did cs major i would be in an even worse state
i just decided ima do it as a side hustle
I did cs selectively j bc of how competitive it is
Ended up applying to like 6 different majors bc of it
They all fall under like 2 or 3 categories so
Its not too bad
But it also makes deciding where I wanna go tougher
when does slo send out the rest of the decisions 😔
friday most likely
bro atp ima just withdraw lmao
i mean it's guaranteed 100% before april
Has anyone not got their CSULB decision?
got invited to sjsu for admitted students day
does everyone get that email?
cuz i just got it too
i assume so
is admit day the same day for every college??
i’m going to spartan day too
guys
go up to random people there and say “fuck UC”
you will meet me eventually
😊
irl a2c meetup is wild
hey mods can we pls ban this kid i don’t like the way he is putting down the UCs and isn’t talking very nice 🤓
No no i am not putting down UCs
:(
Im coping
Get a load of this guy
yea honestly vx you're just a big fat idiot
thx for the honesty 🙂
i don’t like people who sugar coat
im just kidding love u bro
😙😍
yeaa cya there
nah the UCs deserve to be put down
Agreed but I still need them 😔
They don’t deserve you BelugaWhale
sorry kid i dont swear
My swear jar has a morbillion dollars
anyways i will gladly hear u
why can’t cal poly just end it already
they procrastinated on making decisions 🤭
i think u mean posting decisions
realistically they already make them
all that just to send rejections and waitlists
oh well yea 😭 that was my lame attempt at making a joke lmao
i just want decisions to be out already 
over under march 30th?
??
over
bruh where be slo
aint no way they're having this much trouble deciding
uh what’s the deadline to fill out the cal poly slo math form
ITS OUT??
when
waitlisted computer engineering, I'll take it lol
Can you try doing the waitlist form to see if u get this error @devout vigil @wind glade
no error for me
"WAITLIST SURVEY
Your choice to remain on the waitlist is confirmed — thank you for your continued interest in Cal Poly💚!"
idk, I don't wanna opt in but I don't have an error
my friend got a waitlist
Aight it works for me now thanks
Many ppl dont get off calpoly waitlist right
I was about to ask
"No update. Only 345 students from 10233 got off the waitlist last year."
what the hell
i wonder if thats everyone who got offered waitlist or people who opt-in
SLO IS OUT???
waitlist atleast i think
bro
i prolly got rejected then
they sent out acceptances then waitlists then rejections???
thats my guess
i should honestly just genuinely commit to sjsu
lmao BRO I STILL HAVENT GOT ANY NEWS FROM SLO
like the portal is not telling me anything
I might jus twithdraw atp
maybe I gotta commit firet
can't reject me if my application was withdrawn 🤷♂️
lmfao
wow I only got into 1 csu out of 2 applied
sdsu admissions must have gone crazy
i got wailisted 😔😔
Did you get an email?
Hmm okay, I didn’t so I’m totally getting rejected lmfao
waitlist is just as good as rejection
W
aw rip
ur my frendly competition on reject leaderboard lmao
did u applyy any ivies
lmaoooo
tehres 2 ppl above us
no?
i might be first after friday is over though
wait how many r u getting tmrw and friday
lmaoo
3 tmr, 2 friday
i doubt any of mine will clutch up two of them have basicslly already rejected cause of speculation and other things
bro
😭
surely one of them
surely
yyeeaaaaa
at least im gonna be the undisputed rejection chad 💪
i hope they give me a role or smth
IKR
LMAOOOO a consolation role 😭
applying to 20 reaches was kinda a recipe for whats boutta happen tmrw
spending 1400 dollars in app fees for a bunch of rejection letters and a role
seems worth it 👍
bro literally
ughhh
my parents said as long as i got into one reach
itll all be worth it
🧍♀️
EXACTLY THE SAME
they keep on saying "u only need one"
but to get one, u still need to get into one
😔
nyu or berkeley or upenn please
at 4:01 tmrw the chad-rejects tab is gonna be the most active thread on all of discord
@eternal vault whats the best scholol you got into so far
NOOO
😭
really?
and im torn
i wouldve personally gone purdue
what major
purdue BS AI, sjsu bs software eng
but zach edey is leaving purdue 💔
SLO is finally out for me
Status update email
reject
Slo is out 😭
did everyone get rejected that just got it
i’m getting rejected 😭
yeah i did
bro im literally top 10 gpa out of 500 students, what more do they even look at 💀
8 aps and 9 DE
did anyone get in?
i got into ucsd and waitlisted ucsb but rejected slo smh 😭
I think all the acceptances happened in the first round of decisions releases
no one got in???
fucking hell
it’s it was all bs all along
they said u could gain admission up until april 1st
but they didn’t send any more out huh
im coming for that no 1 guys spot
Rejected
How do they make decisions if candidates have the same gpa and there’s nothing else to evaluate
i genuinely don’t know
Ap scores maybe
Is anyone else’s portal not letting them log in?
only god himself knows
im pretty sure I was considered an international applicant even though I live in cali, im gonna assume that's probably what put me out of the running
Calpoly rejects out, my friend just got one
lmao slo rejection
bro how tf is ucsd gonna let me in for human bio and ucla waitlists me
but sdsu and slo reject me
this is actually absurd
all the acceptances came out that first round I think
cal poly slo rejected 💀 💀
cal states r the biggest joke atp
i can’t even lie bro their admissions process is so arbitrary
got into UCSD for the math-cs program and slo has the audacity to reject me(i was gonna deny their admissions offer anyway)
REAL
cal ploy slow living up to its name
might as well release all decisions at once instead of giving ppl false hope 😂
bro deadass
Ik some morons who got into sdsu and cal poly
like i was gonna say no but why r u saying no
slo acc rate lower than berkeley guys dont blame urselves
srsly?
that's the enrollment rate tho
that's how much they have available
not acceptance
nah but they overadmit bc some students may not go
they have to account for yield
anyways fuck SLO, usc better 🦀 🦀
sjsu and usc better
sjsu is the superior csu
it's about 30ish percent based on 27% yield rate that google gave me
if cost not an issue would you go purdue or sj
i got fuckin waitlist at sdsu and rejected slo
jokes lmao
then i knoew a kid with a 3.1 gpa and another with a 2.9 that got accepted into sdsu
any waitlists today???
yeah at like 4
all acceptances came out like 2 weeks ago, waitlists today at 4ish, rejects at like 7:30ish
^
as far as I can tell
just pure GPA is stupid considering grade inflation and tutoring
Rejected with a 4.66 💀💀
like that's just completely p2w
no, they calculate gpa differently
only 8 semesters of honors points
Oh fr?
dude I know someone who transfered to SDSU with a 2.9 GPA for PHYSICS
transfer is diff from applying undergrad
It’s compared to your classmates I think
its straight luck man
purdue
with the csus
cost isnt an issue rn
Is transfer easier than regular?
im kinda split tho
accepted!!!
max transfer gpa could have is 4.0
solid choice, gl
thx :D
i mean ive changed my mind thrice in 2 days, but for now its purdue
it prob is luck tho cuz they dont have essays
we will see when the ucs release their decsions for transfers
how tf do cal states make any decisions w their vague ass app
relatable, you got more than a month to decide so
i literally am top 10 out of 500 students, it totally is not lmfao
yes
im just in ah, how could i get waitlist at sdsu but I know a mf that got in with a 2.9 gpa
like how does that make sense
Yeah I’m 14th out of 580 💀
it’s all good i got accepted
for slo?
yeah
however i think they misspelled a few words

lol
@fluid stump today?
can SLO just give me my decision by now, my portal is still showing NOTHING
UCI or SLO?
yeah it’s says “Thank you for giving us the opportunity to consider your application. We regret that we are unable to offer you admission. For additional options for students who were not selected visit: https://www.calpoly.edu/admissions/not-selected”
which is better?
idk if they sent the right letter
bro is getting a cease and desist (next wave after rejection)
the delusion is hitting
(im joking)
slo is really annoying bruh
the way slo releases admissions is lame
fuck it bruh, wasn't gonna go to slo over a UC anyways
it's the CMU strat and all my homies hate the CMU strat
They did ask for extra info from me after ghosting my email for a whole month, maybe It's that....(I'm coping)
fuck i hate not hearing from the UCs till april
becuase as of right i haven't been accpeted to any damn school
mainly cus i only applied to UCs lol
they don't have a set release day for transfers?
damn, the anticipation is crazy, good luck though
yeah its killing me, esepically considering the 2 states i applied to were my safeties LOL, and i get rejected from SLO and waitlisted for SDSU. Thank you tho 🙂
did cal polu slo send out all letters (accpeted, wailists , rejectes) by now??
pretty much all ye
you will soon
then what does it mean if I didn't get one at all??
okk , thankyou!
I was wondering whether I should email then or smthng
if you don't get one by april 1st at midnight then email
Sure
nah that's me
ya gotta beat this first
real
one more school 
just got rejected by slo!
took me 20 minutes to get into my account just to see a rejection
its 13, it just hasnt been updated </3
im at 8
i stare at my rejection letters and just let it sink in
it’s really annoying how cal poly wanted all this time to send out these type of letters
my friend with a 4.6 got rejected i think
im cooked
soo sdsu it is
wow
what a year
expectations since freshman year being accepted to ucla or berkeley then downgraded rightfully so to any top 6 uc when applying
to now getting rejected from every uc + cal poly with 10 aps
what more could i have done?
IKR
exacctly the same
ughhhhh
IM 15 8 14
9 2 12
slo rejection goes hard
is cal poly a big campus?
if it is im even more devastated since i want a big school
Rejected cal poly
did anyone get into slo this wave?
ANTI CAL POLY RN
its insane
sadly, better than sjsu
or so ive heard
ok bay area simp
:(
girl what
phhh tyyy
average east coast fanboy
no but lets just say i hate it here
anti bay
fair enough
lets go were both first again :D
fresno state > cal poly
fresno state best csu
always has been
ACK
TIE IS CRAZY
i think its 20 now w nyu
where’s the link to this again
pinned in #💪-chad-rejects
I only see the 2023 one
i wont
LETS GOOO W LOOK WHOS FIRST BOIIISSSSS
CRAZYYYYY
i need that role
wild
💪
ayo how to get on that leaderboard
pins on chad-rejects
guys how good is slo for mechanical engineering? better than uci?
r u going admit day
my parents r saying i should go to sjsu
and then transfer to a uc from sj
cause i wanna go uc
but ucmwjfnelfnwlbflshd
does anyone have any insight 😭 into that
it's generally more difficult to transfer from CSU-to-UC or from a UC-to-UC bc most transfers come from community college
who here got into berkeley?
did everyone get slo decisions?
waitlisted
im waiting on sdsu, csulb and slo and they're taking so long 
W
slos out
i did nothings there, all of them are ghosting me
Yeah all of them say received for fall 2024, definite rejection then 💪
so when does cpslo honors college release
SJSU vs SDSU for computer engineering?
ofc sdsu
ofc sjsu
sjsu
sdsu
:(
it's sdsu vs sjsu, not against the UCs 😭
Time to put myself in the rejections leaderboard
hell yeah
Last 10 decisions = rejections
yea my last 9 were
then a wl
then before the wl, like the previous 15 or smth were rej
I might as well not have applied and had a chill high school life
i’d say otherwise
i'd say otherwise to u saying otherwise
what happened to sjsu my beloved???
damn
bro sjsu is inferior to uc berkeley
what would be the point of going to sjsu if berkeley is already so op
so thats why sdsu cs is better because it atleast compares
leaning for purdue now lmao, still not sure
yea but ur comparing it to surrounding schools but not in general
sjsu is in the bay, where all the cs opportunities are
sd has not much for cs cmpared to bayrea
but sjsu is hella well known by employers in the bay, so theres a lot of opportunity
My son got into SDSU and SJSU CS but is weighing against University of Kansas CS since he got into Honors College there
r u in state cali
oh yea congrats to ur kid, sjsu cs is pretty solid
Yep, but he also got merit scholarship that makes KU much cheaper
yea fair enough
if finance is a huge factor, then kansas is the way to go
but ive heard sjsu is incredibly good for cs opportunities
We live in the SF Bay Area, so maybe he wants to be farther away from home..
ohhhhhhh
I work at Google, but I don't recall many of my coworkers coming from SJSU/SDSU. That's my only hesitation.
my dad works in faang, and he says that apple, intuit, cisco, adobe, they all feed from there
like 130k starting jobs are common
theres this article i point to a lot, and sjsu is 8th in silicon valley job securing
Cool. I know quite a few people from Georgia Institute of Tech and UIUC as well (from that list). Of course most people were Stanford when I first started there 15 years ago
yea of course, uiuc is insane, and stanford is just next level
but i feel like at least in the bay, sjsu does have a name and weight to it
My son also got into UIUC but for Civil Eng. Pretty far from CS..
assuming ur child wants to come back to the bay once they graduate
ooh nice, congrats!!
Yeah, I know a few professors from SJSU and they are really cool people.
yea u cant go wrong with sjsu or sdsu cs
i havent heard much abt kansas cs tho, so im not rly sure how their graduation outcomes are
Yeah, I went to school there for one year before I dropped out to join a start-up, so I think that's why he looked there
Thanks for the article. I'll forward that on to him.
sdsu
has anyone not got any decisions from csulb,sdsu and slo?
am i the only one they're ghosting?
Uh i think last 2 years rejection wave was at march 30 for slo
so probably hear badk soon
Yay
Thanks
how did bro not get anything yet 😭
did you apply?
i applied back in novemeber
should have gotten in
Wait what happens if like I dont keep my reported gpa for sdsu
or like let my grades slip a little
i have 2 c's and like 3 b's😭
you get it?
yea
thats good
does cal poly have a discord server?
slo?
yeah
that’s me rn
na you good
does anyone know the average gpa for sjsu students when they graduate
like actually?
As long as you don’t have a jurassic gpa drop and don’t get something below a C you chilling
define jurassic cuz that’s my issue rn
i got like a 3.5 uw last yr
and now i might be at a 2.8 or sumn
guys im leaning towards sjsu over purdue now because of how difficult purdue is
is sjsu difficult, or its very easy compared to purdue
sometimes difficult is more worth it
i would have been on a 2.8 too if i wasnt so big brain last year into taking dual enrollenment classes
all A's on those classes
so it helped a ton
depends on what u wanna do
if u wanna go for grad u could prolly go sjsu
cause easier to get good gpa
and then go to a good grad
if u wanna get a job out of college purdue might be better
what second semester grades get u rescinded from sdsu cuz i’m lowkey really scared and can’t stop thinking about it since my grades are really bad (not failing but still some Cs)
F's and D's
cs are fine
even most of the time d's won't even get u rescinded unless it's a complete change from ur last grade
(i.e getting straight a's then having 4 d's)
cs are nothing to worry abt tho
so i can commit to sdsu now?
cuz i didn’t wanna embarrass myself and commit and then get rescinded instead of going to a chiller school
Cal Poly fin aid came out
ohh tyy
np np
wait how do u know
(justt asking so i cna make sure for other universities cal poly didnt accept me)
they gave me my fin aid letter
If any of u guys don’t want slo SWE please withdraw I want it!
Also does slo consider second major for waitlist
i gotchu
U got in slo!
That’s huge
I got rejected sjsu but waitlist slo
oh shit
i thought u meant sjsu
i got rejected slo lmao
oopsie
Oh lol that’s still huge!
I got rejected sjsu
But waitlisted slo
True ya
who’s here
wheres that
looks like cal poly
ah
how was cal poly slo?
Super nice honestly
Tell me more cuz I didn’t get to travel to visit 😭
U should’ve applied CS 😭 I think it’s rlly easy to transfer to swe and vice versa whenever u want
If ur in cs*
Looks really solid, would also like to know if those are adjusted to uni sizes
You can’t switch into swe.
Rlly? Some student I connected with on LinkedIn told me you could but idk
but I’m certain SWE to CS is possible tho
Oh also @dire sun what uni are u committing to
It is not u should ask slo for more info, but my understanding is swe is the only major that u can’t switch to
Uc Davis
I ain’t gonna switch anyway 😭
Ah would like to know why u chose it over slo ? Since I did the opposite but wanted to know ur thoughts
I really liked the area with the hiking trails right off campus and the town was a nice size and the beach is close by
The campus was nice too but I care more about surrounding area than the campus
But it’s a good size was very quiet that day cause the weather sucked
well for starters, im currently waitlisted for slo swe, highly unlikely for me to get off, heard that there is only 50 spots. for me the campus for davis was more appealing. also due to my concntraton being more geared towards ds, when it comes to resume building, doing research will def help and also its a uc which focuses more on grad school, so if i have a change in mind to go grad idk it might help better. but overall i think its more of the vibe. another contributing thing is the fact that they got energy efficient car competition, which im genuiely quite interested also
but if i were to get off slo swe waitlist idk i might have to think abt it cuz slo swe is really good
I choose cal poly over Davis solely because location
eh u could go either or.
anyone here going to sdsu?
did you find a roomate yet?
these are some really valid points tbh, i got waitlisted for ucsd and if i got off the waitlist it'll be a bit tough to choose betwee both 💀 especially for the research side of things and the resources like the SDSC
but i sometimes wish I don't get off the waitlist so that it's easier for me to choose 😭
Haven’t committed yet I’m still holding out hope for some waitlists
But I will probably commit soon
i am also holding out some waitlists 😭 but tbh price wise ill have to see if they're worth it (only gatech is the best option)
bro i dropped from 3 Bs 2 As to 2 Cs 2 Bs 1A am i gonna get rescinded from sdsu?? 3 aps and it’s not like the class i dropped to C from was an A to C, it was B to C and A to B
i’ve been stressing a lottt
Doubt
Unless u get a d
i def am not gonna get a d if i continue grinding
Hopefully bro
no like i’m 8% away from a D
Just grind
but i cant get my high Cs up to a B so i’ve been stressing about being rescinded from poor grades second semester
ik it’s not like harvard or anything but still
As long as it’s not below a c it’s fine
Harvard 💀
bruh ngl I doubt Harvard will reject if someone has a c
or a few cs
yeah hopefully but when they say in the conditions to maintain the gpa that got u in the first place i get scared
i think all colleges say that but i’m not sure
It’s bullshi lol
yeah cuz if it’s real i’m pretty sure 75% of people would be rescinded for senioritis then
I’m really suffering from it
It’s not cuz idk the subjects
Its more cuz I took a lot of courses this eyar
And they’re much harder
So I’ll forget a lot of the info
Rlly quickly
yeah same with me
last year was ab calc and now is bc
and last year i took mickey mouse ap environmental and then year im taking ap bio
Like if they actually had the subjects with a big enough time frame to revise 😭 it’ll be so much easier
but now it’s mental overload
I’m legit sitting 20 papers
Last year was way worse but this time the content is harder
Wait nvm 22 papers now I forgot I was doing further maths gcse for no reason
But it’s a free subject
💀
are u taking ap lit or sumn?
Nah I’m a diff curriculum but rlly similar to IB/AP
I did the equivalent of AP lit last year and it was hell 💀 lmao but I managed to go through it 💀 had to study of mice and men 😭
they say just to keep a c- or better so
you’ll prob be fine lmao
even if u did get something bad u could prob explain
you do have to make sure you don’t drop below a 3.0 for the term though or is that for the UCs
Does anyone know if it’s weighted or unweighted?
Seems to depend on the school
that’s the terms for UCs
sdsu doesn’t have that one
Guys do citizenship grades matter for getting rescinded?
anyone else's SDSU housing portal not work?
nope working fine
Bro why is SJSU asking me to commit and do housing form even tho i already withdrew (or at least i did the withdraw form)-
lmao
uoft legit did that 💀
what is UOFT
