overanalyzing the portal until you get hallucinations that something is different from what it was a day ago and that means ur getting in
guys
guys the font changed
guys am I accepted
On a genuine note when was the decision date the last few years?
Around the middle of march?
Guys they changed the size from 11 to 12 is this a likely?
12???
DECISION DATE CONFIRMED MARCH 12 /j
Yea i heard in 2018 89% of ppl with size 12 font got in
So its basically a likely
LOL
🤨🤨🤨
3/25 last year
last Saturday of March
what
Bro does this mean next week or two weeks?
Admitted students day is on the 25th
And they’ve gotta give time to make plans
So it has to be 16/17/8/9
One of those 4 days
When can we expect RD's?
I swear if it somehow does come out tmr imma be beyond flabbergasted
they wont bro
Ok good to know
how do yk
Oh that clears it up, thanks
LOL
Or maybe they r creating suspense and anticipation 🤨
but itll be in by 31st for sure
yeah that too
its whatver
whatever happens happens
you cant rlly do anything at this point
so no reason to stress abt it
If CMU does actually announce earlier than the 20th I would be in shock
Stats +Ml
No Dietrich
oh
wait wtf they have a stats and ml major?
Yuh
that’s what I said omg
TF
wait where is it
There is stats +Ml
bro I shuda applied to this
i lwk forgot i applied here
i applied to this too
bruh I applied cs💀
brudda imma be real i applied here last second after i submitted duke. i genuiely thought id be only applying to duke and the ucs, but nope i did not
no way
BA and BS it doesnt matter bro
no one is gunna care
I wanna do ml 😭
u can minor if u want
no i know im just saying like wtf i didnt expect that dept to offer that degf
that’s if I get into their cs program
bro i should have done that all my ECs and internships have bneen machine learning based FUCK
i think people here mentioned it loads of time to the point i was like fck it imma just do it
im SO COOKED
bro literally same
FUCK
anyone applied to IS?
bro I need to up my research game
i know tons of ppl who never did any math comps, def not a requirement
informatics?
literally but yk that scs has a AI major
the information systems school yea
YES did know that one
yes i did
W
would like to hear abt this from people who did no sat either cuz imma be real most cmu students believe i dont stand a chance just cuz of the lack of math related activities and scores
wrd bro
wait but u gotta get into scs to do it so
doesnt matter
u submitted test scores @spark fog ?
ur basically applying to scs as a whole
hmm i never did any math stuff either
and not just cs
i did submit sat tho
yes 34
they also have a machine learning BS too
crazy
i have a better shot of getting into is than scs
my entire app was info systems, i literally modified and changed shit js for cmu
LMAO SAME
if they didnt do math did they take the math sat or sat and get high math score cuz apparently thats seriously wats gunna get me down compared to applicants for cmu cuz i did not know cmu cared so much abt scores
bru i should have applied to that
😔🙏
i changed everything from "machine learning" or "computer science" to "information systems"
trust the method
yea bro lmao
erm idk tbh lmfao
wait is their stats+ml not as competetive as like cs or smth
way easier tbh
bro this is also me
do we all got the same app or sum 😭
i think most ppl did submit test scores but if they say going t/o doesn't matter then i'd just trust that
scs is js crazy
not really its in dietrich, but that doesnt mean its not competitive
LMAOOO
now its over lmfao
yea but like compared to cs
dam les go i think i applied statsml
no way 💀💀💀
the only thing they might be off about is my only spike in my app is my nasa internship and its PURE ML so they might think why the fuck im not applying SCS and for ML
but im hoping they skip past it and dont ovethink
and just let me in
really would like to, but man i feel unsure and uncertain ngl. i felt like my essay for cmu was either the best one cuz i tweaked my duke essay a little and i found something interesting that aligns with my personal goal
statml is decently less competitive than cs im pretty sure
u good dw
uh yea..
so ur telling me i have a 1.01% chance instead of a 1% chance
im sure you'll do fine :)
lesgo :D
praying we all get in guys
wrdd
@tawdry shoal @storm pewter were yall deferred
i did rd :/
it kinda sucks knowing that im the only person out of my friends who has yet to gotten into a T20 or committed lol
i wish i did rd so i could have a second choice major
i didnt wanna get heartbroken too early
i ed2 and got deferred
oh wait what
there are still so many decision days yet to come!
yeah if u ed u can only do one major
u got a chance bro
ty dan ill just wait if not ill just go to my local csu
i got rejected from my ed2 so erm yea
oh shit. 💀 i think i put the data science at dietrich college as my second
what was ur ed2
tufts 😭
BROTHA
i doubt it'll come to that but if you want transfering is always an option
saves some money too
i did information systems as my alternate
C__S__U>C__M__U
bru betrayal
valid
wait how many majors could u apply for WTF
i deadass could only do 1
i’m trippin lemme check again 💀
ed can only rank one
yeah
rd ranks 2 i think
they should do 3 majors
fuck it undeclared CM U
LOL
@soft shadow we got thisbrto
wait what
u gotta transfer into scs 💀
idk why we ed bro they said "ed vs rd dont matter to us we dont give a fuck"
HELL YEAH
im just impatient
you got it
its free trust u got this
trust
fr
scs transfer might be harder than straight up getting into scs
dan is correct
wow thanks dan way to kill the mood /j
:(
i mean
i mean how hard....could it be?? 
wait does cmu take in like college class credits??
i have NO CLUE
u can petition for credit transfer
I did!!
transfering to cmu cs from a different uni from a t20 in cs is possible right
right
possible, yeah but likely? no
RIP
i feel like im being pranked
This is a prank
I see the story and its fin aid fridays
I was excited for a second
For nothing
Cruel
Someones salty they didnt get a font change which means theyre 10% more likely to get admitted
is portal astrology changing your system time to get the decision early?
genuinely asking
Yes
Although I’m unaware of that actually being a thing to begin with
it rarely works
Its not really that it just means any signs in the portal for a college that could indicate an acceptance or rejection
changing system time wont work at all lol
whyd they lie about keeping us posted like they couldve just stayed quiet 😭
WHEN IS THIS SHI COMING OUT
Did we end up finding out what the announcement was
no 🥲
I think it was related to financial aid im not sure
Nah that’s their weekly thing we still dk what the announcement is
CMU releases monday to ruin our entire week
Honestly so cmu core
cmu coming monday?!
no it’s a joke speculation dw dw 😭
i was like
great bro just got rejected & waitlisted from 2 schools this week, i dont need more for the current situation
Next week is gonna be crazy
either gonna be one of the most important or meaningless of my life
CMU trolling
Day 2 give it up for day 2!
“If you click the third ‘carnegie mellon’ in your portal your decision has been there for 2 days!”
Soon is within 28 hours
Nah literally
Good luck
Is the As ans Rs like ur track record
I jus noticed everyone has those
Yeah added it yesterday
Since I picked up 2 more rejections
💀
I’ve only gotten into a school I applied to on accident deadass
What school?
RIT bro
Yeah
I legit applied because it was free 0 essays I didn’t even know anything about it 💀
ive seen you in so many chats wesley im rooting for u
Yeah every chat is a rejection 💀
Rit is a solid choice
Valid
I don’t wanna live in NY bro I’d kill someone
I ED to a school in NY
Im in mass carnegie is my farthest scchool
Anyone wanna guess :)
Cornell
Columbia
You get defer?
#rejected
Oof
I shouldn’t have been so optimistic with my decisions
I got rejected from brown ed
They don’t deserve u !! Is what I’ve been told
I should’ve applied vandy ED or brown ED
I shouldve went dartmouth ed
vt was weird this year i applied ea and still got waitlisted and so did some of my friends w good stats and i know people w worse stats who got in 😭
I toured it in november (after applying to brown already) and realized i liked darty more 😭
I didn’t even like the school
Me with UPenn😭😭
See it worked out
You’re gonna get into darty
Hopefullyyyy ahh would be a dream
Or perhaps cmu 👀
I applied M&T 💀
Whats that
Management and technology, it’s a dual degree from Wharton and engineering
<1% acceptance rate
I love cmu but darty being closer is the only thing keeping me from putting cmu at 1
Wtf
Cmu is like 3rd rn for me
Thats gotta be illegal
Princeton, UPenn, cmu
Same but you can’t choose a major right
Only a school
Yea
It’s over
So we applied cs (we are cooked)
Nah cuz id rather do app math (second choice) but i dont wanna call em and seem desperate
I applied comp bio
I think it’s too late honestly
I thought i did to
Womp womp
Yea prolly
Yeah dude makes no fucking sense
Yea still very low chances but still
Lemme be delusional
Word word
Ik kids who have like hella Cs that got in
Whats scs acceptance rate
7 or sum
fr!!
Brown the only school i went test optional for
Hid my 1460
But i shoulda sent it
Legit got defer cmu and waitlisted by uva and vt
I thought the cmu and uva decision would be a good sign for vt ngl
I aksed a2c if i should send and threy said yes to every college so here i am
I told a2c I was going test opt and they said it was a bad idea but I did it anyways so here I am
Accepted to every honors college
Did u get accepted anywhere?
Im getting accepted to good schools but at a base level no honors no money
So like yay?
Lol
Yep
Northeastern honors Umass honors and UConn honors (for CS)
Blanking on 4th acceptance
Wait really
Yeah I’m between Umass and neu
Cuz ngl uma is better than neu for CS
but prestigeeeee😭😭😭 I can’t help it
Im not paying for my tuition and my parents care about “prestige” so they want neu
Oh wordd
I feel like I should put down my neu deposit rn
I did
And then switch if I get ivy
bro I lowk wish I did nu in
So not jus darty
Its gas
Ill be there in jan 😞
Yoo if we end up at neu let’s link fr
I’m so scared, I’ve only gotten one decision so I have no clue whether my app is good or not
Stanford Rea 😔
Uhm
Dude
Yea u in a grey zone
Stanford deferral v good chances of acceptance
Almost everyone ik that got deferred ended up getting in
Stanford specific
That would be craazzzy
Aigh ive been putting off getting ready for the day i gotta dip
Tech day for the play (i dont even do drama im jus doing it to keep my friend company ((the backstage smells)))
Lmao, I had a friend that did stage crew (basically backstage)
I do like everything at my school and i gotta say tech crew is NOT a banger
Why 13?
9:00am
Is their normal release time in previous years
And yk they said “posted” soon
Hahaha yeah it wasn’t a hella popular thing to do at ours either
Oh nah Idts I think they were probably gonna announce when decisions come out
Ain’t no way they drop a bomb on us like that
Haha
Imagine tho
Have some hope
Prolly be the 15th tbf
But it’s okay 🙏
Yeah nope 😂
So 2 UC rejections then cmu on Saturday that’s fucked 😂
Is this speculation?
I don’t think anything is confirmed so technically yes
But they’re going off trends from previous yrs so more likely
CMU is kinda confirmed
An admitted students day is March 25th
And they always do decisions on Saturday’s
And they aren’t gonna release on March 23rd if admitted students day is the 25th
Ppl need time to make plans
So March 16th makes sense
i hope so
Where did they mention this?
a CMU student mentioned it on this thread
as they were part of the organizing team for the admitted students event
got it, thanks
they dropped decisions on both ed1/ed2 without notifying us (except it was already later than expected so most of us alr knew the time after calling them a lot)
Did someone call and ask for RD
Ye when is rd☠️
No one’s gonna tell you
Too early lol
Due to unforeseen circumstances CMU is my top choice
When tf is this coming outtttt
What happenduhhh
I never realized how good it was for my major 😭 it’s better than princeton and UPenn and brown which were my top choices
Ranked 2nd?? Are u kidding me
is there a chance it comes out today?
I’m so glad my dad made me apply
Nah
Nah
so most likely next sat then?
I think they might announce the date within the week tho
Possibly yes
Its still my 2nd choice cuz even tho its rated mad high dartmouth is closer
Ans that matters too!
Not jus ranking
That’s valid
I live in CT is like an hour more than my other schools
Cmu?
No biggie my dad loves this school
Yea
I live in mass
I see
So darty is 2 hours
Yea that makes sense
Carnegie is a flight
I think cmu and neu would be same distance for me
For me i could walk to neu (train is within walking distance)
Pittsburgh is deep into penn
I forget Pennsylvania is huge
Yeah
Nah it’s ok
I’ll take a train
I’m ok w that
Cmu lemme in 😁😁
Im gonna have to fly
My family says theyre gonna complain to drive to darty if i get in and its only 2 hours
Imagine Pittsburgh
👀👀👀
Wait are u the one that has same acceptances as me
Oh wow
Yea I mean
We did college tour 3 schools but like we still went
It’s not like ur going every weekend
The farthest I went was for Tennessee
For vandy
😀
Frick that school fr
I could never
No dude it was great tho
My farthest school is uva and that was a random apply
I rlly thought vandy was gonna work out bc everything went right on that trip
Did you uh
And then I got rejected from two merit scholarships
Idk if I got in or not but damn
Nah I find out late March
Do they let u know of schollys before acceptances?
So basically if u get the major one u get in
Makes sense
Well you shouldnt be crushed i mean they mad hard
I’m not surprised
Yeah what i was bouta say
I mean you getting honors for every college is a very good sign
Youll def get into sum good
Vandy or no
So Ik it’s my like best school in terms of fit
Like vandy is the best fit in terms of academics and sports
What were your Rs if you dont mind me asking
I get it
It be like that
And my essay was about music and vandy is in nashvileee ughhh
If I just had good essays
Columbia ED and UIUC EA (I applied pure CS smh)
I appealed UIUC tho I’ll hear back on the 15th
Rejected from ivy ed twins ong
Realllll
I fr thought i was him then a week before decisions i met a kid from a different school at a state math competion and he made me feel like an idiot and i thought “yea yk what if a kid like that gets my spot at brown thats fine he deserves it more 💀”
I think meeting that kid was fate
Damn
Yea no I was pretty confident on getting in
I basically had no competition from nearby schools
And I have rlly good ECs awards and grades but I’m test opt
But yea fate I guess
Sometimes life jus isnt plannin on what u are
Yep
I’m tryna tell myself that ughhhh
My neighbor came to my house today
Her daughter got rejected yale REA
And then got in brown RD and she’s doing med school at jhu 😭 like she’s hella impressive
Wow
She was basically just saying u just gotta wait and whatever happens is what is best for u
Saying it out loud will totally jinx it but im thinkign brown was my humbling arc and now ive come to terms with myself maybe something good will come my way.
Nah I get it
I was humbled after Columbia
But then the ego came right back after getting honors for everything 💀💀💀
The ego has not returned
But I still don’t think I’m ivy level yk
I think this is the right mindset
I was a B+, A- student i wasnt him
No one knows
Saturday
What why
Nvm
W
I trust that you’ll get in somewhere you’ll love and I hope the best for u !!
Why
Im coming back from my trip sat night
You as well 👊 thank you
Honestly everytime kvd comes in chat I get so scared
Why?
Insults are coming my way
Ok
Imma be called a rishab glazer
Not really considering
Ur right tbh
Sameeee
But I ended up liking it
Loving it as of today
Way too nerdy and depressing for me
Top choice Atm
Every student I’ve talked to tells me not to go
Rlly everyone I asked rlly likes it
Who?
One of my cousins friends
Wel yk it has a huhe park next to it righr
Still has lots of nature
Right but I want a nice looking campus
Its definetly nice looking
Just not nature nice
Carnegie is very work hard get results school
I think i need it, i was never disciplined
I think I would thrive there but I also love a good work hard play hard
Honestly if it’s the best school I get into imma go
Willing to endure lack of nature for good job 😩
I dont mind lack of nature
The park IS right there
If u been there its like literally right der
Well that and no like
Crazy sports scene
Cuz lowk I wanna go to huge football and basketball games
ITS ON FORBES AVE
I wanna get in for the confidence boost
Hopefully it comes out this week
Even if i get rejected its fine
I just want a decision asap tbh
!cmu
tepper?
to be fair we’re probably in english classes with a ton of analysis and stuff
When tf does CMU come out
theyre never announcing anything no decision its over 😞😞
Im guessing prob on monday
Cuz for ed2 they announced 5 days before
And they will likely follow the same pattern
i thjnk they mean theyll announce on monday that decisions will be saturday
no one of my friends got deferred ed2 for cs and then got in rd
Yea this is what I meant lol
Yea lol announcement not decision
cmu normally comes out on weekends?
Si
do u know the time
Typically 9am
EST?!!
Si
Or you’ll stay up all night
till 6 am nah
if i get into ucsd or ucla ill consider withdrawing the day before
because ucsd and ucla are my dream schools
Some how my dumb ass is in the same applicant pool as ppl with like 1570s 💀
theyve already made the decisions so might as well see it
oh true
The deferred students are about to be a bloodbath of rejections
Ive barely gotten any real decisions so i could get humbled so incredibly hard ngl
I got northeastern which is technically good but my school is a feeder, and i got into semi-competitive state schools
I havent actually gotten decisions from real reach reaches like ivys cmu uva etc
I got a 1460 and 3.75uw i know i aint competitive 😭
I got waitlisted by UVA 😂
If I ED I would’ve snagged it ik it
You’ll prolly pick up some good ones
im in the same boat brotha
when all my actual comp schools come out
i am cooked
grilled
What have u gotten into
Like wut
asu honors, IU kelly, then 2 shitty in state schools
Not bad
rejected from NYU stern ED
I’ve only got RIT rn
Sorry to hear that
Whats stern
nyu
Yea but like what
Ik a couple guys who went there
its chill the 100k cost of attendance was uh
Amazing program
Great program tho and opportunities
So business?
So ngl it’s not bad lol
Yea sry
it was expected so it is what it is
I got rej from brown ed ✌️
march 28 is gonna humble me so hard lmfoa
what yall applying for?
Lowkey if they accept me ima be kinda mad
Comp bio, app math ✌️
Cause they could’ve saved me so much mental pain
If they would’ve admitted me ED
😂
T/O?
Test optional
oh right
I have an 1170 sat lmfao
a lot of schools are going mandatory next year
Me too and i totally forgot comp bio was cs
i think dartmouth and yale
Second choice warrior ✌️
CMU cs is insane
did yall do UW?
I wanna do app math beo im chill with college of science
business major 🙏
So far got into uc Davis but would def go CMU if I get rejected ucla and ucsd
i would not be competitive in CS
I got rejected UCI and UCD but I think it’s cause I didn’t meet the section F req
Cause my UC essays cooked
Like they were top tier
my cmu essay cooked i think
Ill take northeastern if all else fails but like
My cmu essays were mid
My cmu essays were some of my best tbh
NEU so expensive
What im sayin
ngl i thought my cmu essays were good compared to the ucs
my cmu essays were kinda my avg level work
i woould love to go here but there is no way in hell they give me as good aid
Are they acc gonna keep us posted?
woo!
Ill take it for top 5 in the country 🙏
Cmu has mad connections
I aint paying more than 40k for any college so if they cost more than that im going to my state school
cs job market is pretty bad rn tho isnt it?
Not worth the debt imo
It will reset
im not even going into cs gg
yeah
My choices are my public school which is 30 smth and another private which didnt give fin aid details yet
what did you get into WashU for?
physics and english lit
nice nice
thanks
Stop trolling
i wish they didnt accept me so early bc now i have ample time to still be stressed out abt college apps 💀
Bro I got deferred first and now waitlisted
stop lying
Yeah sorry
💀💀
When does this come out
i checked just bc im a curious lassie
I’m kidding I’m kidding ❤️
Did u ed
i tab out for like
3 seconds
and come back
and see that
straight up stomach drop
I fucking hate carnegie mellon now bc theyre leading me on with the will keep you posted bullshit
I wasnt gonna go either way
i also chekced bc all my college portals are in my bookmark so it took me like 10 seconds to check
But i hate them more now
Same
No i paid the app fee i want my decision
Ill decline my offer of admission if i get in most likely but not 100%
if i get rejected from a school im deleting the portal off my bookmark
Also i aint getting in in the first place
Yea i do that too
I wont delete but ill leave the channel on this server
i have no idea what i'll do if i get rejected because i haven't yet
(starts next friday)
same
been deferred a bunch tho
you just wont get rejected
100% acceptence rate
trust
Ay bro
Ima be so incredibly up when i get into my reach (and ima ignore the 7 others i got rejected from)
Knock on wood
one of my reaches and im happy
any of them
Literally
me with all reaches and um all reaches
When tf does this come out
march 16th is when this comes out
Is that confirmed
By me it is
by him
by him
I sent one and they added it to my file
there was another CMU student over here who mentioned that they were deferred from ED and sent in a LOCI before getting admitted
It’s alright, I don’t think it’s a determining factor tbh
If you were deferred from MCS, you have got a chance
If deferred from SCS, I think you know the statistics 💀
Same
They asy they dont take it for waitlists
not defers
🙏 your chilling though dw
you getting in
CMU came out march 26th last year? assuming it will remain the same this year as well
Admitted students day is on the 25th
There’s a current student here who plans that and said it’s coming earlier
Its prob gonna be out on the 16th
Realistically
With the date accouncement coming out tmrw
Yeah what does it even mean
I’m telling y’all bro
.
👀
where did u find that
!cmu
THE STARS AND THE MOONS
Its kinda obvious
But its nowhere and untrue technically
But like u can common sense
We dont know that yet
😇
They announce 3-5 days before decisons, accepted student day is in 2 weeks
2+2=4 yk
Yes yes
isnt it possible that the admitted students day is just for ed admits and the release date is closer to the 23rd?
Prolly not
Thatd be wierd
no
at least that wasnt the case last yr
What of the year before that tho 🤔
Not sure
i dont think the announcement's coming today
😂
The announcement was the friends we made along the way
Still no announcement :—(
They aren’t gonna do it smh
Smh smh smh
"Everyone denied lol, yall suck, come back next year"
womp womp
Cmu will not release this year🔥🔥🔥🔥
So not this Saturday
