How are they getting away with this
It came out at 6pm on a Friday
I don’t want it to come at some random time
I need some time to prepare
Lol
if they know when its coming why dont they just tell us!!
Why not
CMU better tell us bro
i enjoy the surprise/novelty of getting an acceptance letter in the mail first but like… i have to wonder how people were able to stay sane when there weren’t concrete acceptance dates for most schools and they could literally get a letter at any given moment
results release on march 40th
This is so funny LMAO
Frrrr
These mfs are straight trolling us bruh
4 days is not ‘soon’
When r we getting the announcement
Never 🥲
Right
I rlly thought it would come out today at the least
frr when does it usually come out
lmfaoo
watch it be about something else
ohh
im delusional so i care..
ohh wait i remember who u r
As they should
It’s gonna be about test policy just watch
Its not fs
you say nah today, my friend,
So not this Saturday
They announced for ed2 on January 31sr
And it came out in the 2nd
So maybe they announce on Thursday who knows
No
Lol
They don’t rlly announce lmfao
Or atleast they haven’t this year
They do these hype based announcements 😂
I love him
Possibly
We’re just spectating
But I’d be willing to bet that decisions will come out in the next week and 1/2 ish
NOOO
Federer was my fav
Rn it’s between Shelton sinner and Fritz
IT WAS THE SADDEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE
I CRIED WITH NADAL AND FEDERER.
NO STOP
I don’t wanna think about it
NOOO
it’s the way I never got to see Federer live
Nadal I’ve seen US open
But still
So sad
RAHHHH
rafa better always
not happening
he will keep winning roland garros for the rest of existance
Jannik sinner on top
I luved him ever since he was ranked my fav number
17
YESSS
I have to agree with that unfortunately
I like all tennis players I can’t choose
Cuz then there berretini
And ruud
And
And
Paire
Rune
Medvedev
He’s so funny
So aggressive
Right he’s such a sweetheart
Like we all think of doing this he just actually does it
All ik is nadal is the spanish bull and he owns roland garros forever
#clayking
I’m sleeping cmu better make a decision by the time I wake up (I’m waking up at 3:30 to do diff eq worksheet)
badminton >>
Is teppsrs good or bad
good
What does the letters A,W,D,R and the numbers mean after folks ID name?
accepted waitlited deferred rejected
Thank you!
Insta post, friday decisions are going to start releasing on a rolling basis
FRIDAYYYYY
“Admissions decisions for Fall 2024 will begin to release Friday, March 15! Keep an eye on your email for more details, as decisions will continue to be released throughout March.”
.
i quoted the ig post man idk why you’re being weird
What'd I do😭
AUUGH
my interview was mid-january, i’m hoping and praying that i get to hear on friday
Where's that ig post?
Is it rolling?
Thanks
it says you’ll get specific info via email
That’s a new
yeah i’m not a fan of it lol
why beat around the bush for so long if you’re not gonna have an actual release date
that’s weird
Because someone mentioned
On 25th
There’s an admitted students event
they may be doing it like northeastern used to
acceptances first, waitlists, then rejections
or it might be by school/college
cuz they could get into legal trouble if they don’t release it as they say
im not seeing anything online for it
A CMU student working for the admitted students event mentioned it here
it may have been for the grad programs, those are usually in march
no, they mentioned it was for new admitted first years
can’t say for sure
This is a new low
If i dont get mine on the 15th im gonna rage
me when rejection
Prolly afternoon?
15 March
Omg Carnegie will be my first decision back since my ED
This is my little primer for the next two weeks
yeah i think this will be my first rd decision
Imagine if I get in
@everyone RD decisions will begin rolling out this Friday, March 15! https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4auUV9s97i
Watch to the end for a surprise that many of you have been waiting for … 👀
Admission decisions for Fall 2024 will begin to release Friday, March 15! Keep an eye on your email for more details, as decisions will continue to be released throughout March. Drop a ❤️ if you’re ready to #TurnTartan
753
bye
oh yuh
First RD possibly
No confirmed time
yes
yes
thanks sauce
I'm not sure if it's even worth it for me to go here tbh
uoft or Carnegie what do we think
same i doubt im going here even if i get in
How much is UoT?
Wait so when’s cmu coming out?
Why am i getting anxious 😲
goodnight
3/15
Aaah this is crazy
rolling starting on 3/15
yo wtf
this early??!!!
Then uchicago 3/16
ANOTHER DECISION ON 3/15 😭😭😭
they said more info will be sent via email
if i had to guess the date you get your decision depends on what school/college you applied to and whether you were deferred
What do u have so far
cool
i kinda regret applying here tbh
i would not thrive and shine here
why
depressing ahh school
I’m not mentally prepared for this
which 4
Tf is this rolling decision ☠️😭
UCLA, UCSD, CMU, UW
TWO REJECTIONS THIS FRIDAY TF?
wait ucla and ucsd coming this friday?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!
Everything is speculated
Nothing is confirmed
Because colleges find it impossible to give us a set decision date so they can leave us pondering 24/7
🙂 sounds about right
CMU email
Cmu on Friday
So CMU's releasing on Friday
Email almost gave me a heart attack
Chat is this real ?
the email literally said nothing that the ig post didn’t
We getting this melon 😈
Email made me jump bro wtf
Hoping for good results for everyone here
We got this guys 
We got this!!!
i think it’s really funny that cmu literally has the best school for compsci in the country and yet the layout of their application portal makes me want to bash my head into a wall
wait so is it rolling or it mostly comes out on the 15th ?
can’t wait for my rejection
does anyone know about tepper vs mcintire comparison
Also speculation for swarthmore and Pomona
$80k a year for machine learning is batshit
Cmu actually bullying us 😭
anyone have the PASS counselor chat? i never got it and was wondering if that’s a bad sign 🥶
my supps for cmu were so bad
it’s just a financial aid counselor reaching out to you lmfao
it literally does not matter
no same
truly think they were the worst of all the schools i wrote for 😭
I wrote about rocks 😭
" begin to release on Friday, March 15, 2024! Students are asked to keep an eye on their email for more details, as decisions will continue to be released throughout March."
they ain’t tryna get into legal trouble that’s why.
it sucks i agree tho
I got it
I also got 2 emails on that same day from them about Info systems b
Lowkey got so excited idk why
aint it their responsibility to come up with a decision date where they're ready to send decisions to everyone
yea its
but like if they don’t they’re kinda screwed so its better to give them a on or before date than an exact date so there’s a buffer
and sometimes they might get more apps
I’m assuming they will just give all decisions out in according hours on the 15th
Same
Oh no I have UIUC appeal decision and CMU NOOO
I don’t want this week to happen
- cmu 2. ucsd 3. ucla
I did that too but for Dietrich
this bouta be the worst week of my life
meh idek if i could afford cmu
Lmfao I wrote about music
I'm cooked
am I cooked chat 😭
it’s a smart metaphor imo
My college counselor told me 50% of SCS was test optional which I still doubt but I made it test optional so maybe
means theyll come out gradually, different times for different people
okay I’m starting to spiral over decisions now
Same day tho?
not sure, all they said is that it begins march 15
Makes me think it’ll continue into Saturday
it’s not a prediction, it’s official
what yall apply as
I hope they roll out @ 9am
SCS
was gonna do that
but found out theres stats + ds with ml in a diff college
higher acceptance rate ig
Prolly a lot higher
Lol
It’s prolly dietrich or however it’s spelled
Which is like 10+%
Where CS is 3
whered u get that source
im seeing like 6-7%
this is prolly 15% ish
What do yall think tepper acceptance rate is?
7-8?
What abt information systems?
Google doesn’t have accurate results
bro google says its 24%...
thats not true right...
No
No
wait do they look at ur alternative major if ur rejected for ur first choice?
- google’s acceptance rates aren’t true, the only accurate acceptance rates are from a school’s common data set
- why do you care about acceptance rates so much
like genuinely, why is one program’s alleged acceptance rate being 24% (which isn’t even true nor can you really calculate it unless you work for admissions) changing your opinion of the school
i think ppl r just looking at the chance of them getting in
not judging the prestige of the school
maybe but “bro google says it’s 24%… that’s not true right…” kinda caught me off guard lol
girl what
im just surprised how innacurate quoras answers r
Since they are like 8y old
Lol
intl cs cooked
Does CMU admit you by major or can they also admit you as like undeclared or something
why is it rolling 😭
No Australia 😭
U got in scs test opt?
For CMU is second option for major considered?
AHHHH IT DROPS FRIDAY
i did
I have a friend who got in
is tepper hard to get into?
yes im cooked
why is it friday
Is information systems hard to get into
there’s no way i’m getting into cmu idek why i applied
We apply because there always is hope and chance
same
were we supposed to make that one cmu essay cmu-related
the one tha twas like what do you look for in a college experience
becuase i #didnt i just took the question at face value
these questions are so open ended, there is really no right answer
i assumed it wanted to be cmu-related, but it could be otherwise
i did cmu related cuz i felt it would be too generic otherwise
what do they normally do
release all decisions at one time on one day
You are in the top % of applicants wtf you mean lol
You deserve this
😂
No it’s better
For them being a CS school tho it’s shocking how shit it was
It’s new
Not that it’s shit
😂
mellons
Did anyone not get the email? I saw sme pple online saying they didnt recieve them
good luck everyone
Everyone got the email
they probably just didn’t check their promotions/spam
everyone who applied rd got it
Dietrich
!cmu
the new portal is terrible
they released ed1 decisions pretty late w/o announcement and didnt give us an option to enroll until like 3 days after decision (deposits werent available until mid-feb despite them telling us they would be available mid-jan)
everyone who consented to contact
scs
If I get in I’m buying 7 CMU hoodies
And a lanyard and a water bottle
And everyone will know !
If I get in I have a frienemey who I have to break the news too lmao
will be HILARIOUS
He has a CMU hoodie despite not applying
I’m telling everyone
and I know he is going to pitt, despite being from ny
tepper
if i get in ill be like yippee then go back to not caring
This discord/sub is
1/3 ib wannabees 1/3 doctor wannabees 1/3 FAANG shills
I'm just calling my counselor and telling them, but that is it
For me it’s either get in or go to RIT
not mutualy exclusive
And I don’t wanna live in NY
duke or cmu or gt
CMU
And pay $80k COA
We can be roommates 👀
Yes
Is MIT ur top choice?
youre transferring to olin no matter what?
I'm not sure
not sure
Fair
My siste r went she got sm free stuff. Just buy like 1
The chance of me getting in is like none xD so I prolly won’t buy any
My best chance is legacy lol
Sheesh legacy @ cmu
does cmu look at legacy
No
i heard they dont but they had a spot to put down legacy so whats the point of them asking
yea but if it doesnt play into their admissions why do they ask
Idk
For CMU.... any idea how many seats are already filled during ED rounds?
what's stopping them from lying
🙏
Why would they lie
to seem more fair to the public
since theres that whole stigma about kids getting in about legacy
eh its starting to get to some of the ivys so
They don’t care 😂
A school isn’t gonna lie just for the sake of lying
whats ib stand for
International baccalaureate
(investment banking)
im in that program thats why i asked lmao
ah k
idk tbh lmao, not a business student
yeaa lol who tf would wanna be an international baccalauerate wannabe
the program is shit
lmaooo
It is shit
Our English teacher quit
💀
The students said they were gonna push her to her limits and make her quit
And she actually did
DAMN
thats actually crazy lmao
oh damn...
the admins at our school support the ib so we cant do that lmao
It was her first year doing IB too
theyre never on the students' sides
She had been doing 10th grade English for like 5-6 years
The instant she taught IB and realized the kids didn’t give a damn it was all over
damn...
That’s kinda sad
The admins @ my school are weird
Like we got these mfers who trap out of the bathroom and the admins are like best friends with these kids 😂
We did that to my Chinese teacher once
wtf 😭
Bullied her and then she got fired
💀
I had one teacher quit cause no one would talk to him
One day he tried to do this activity for world history one and no one said anything when he asked questions
That is actually the saddest one
And he got rlly pissed stomped around the classroom and picked up everything off everyone’s desk and was super sad
He tried so hard
I felt bad for him
What are your awdr
awdr?
ur decision ratio
Accepted waitlist blah blah
Oh
It’s in my name?
AUTOCORRECT AH
What an it
Like what colleges 😭
Nah cuz literally i told my mom to get a flight to Pittsburgh cuz we goin to admitted students day 😭
Rejected UIUC
defer cmu is crazy
I ain’t getting in
ur cracked bruh
😂
Same. Did you appeal
No
WHY
Idc to go
I got rejected from CS
And then I called and they said my profile is strong for bioengineering
So I appealed
My decision is on the same day as CMU 😭
Well my major is computational biology
Ahh
Bioengineering kinda makes sense
I should’ve gotten into CS
Same
Which is why they recommended
But when I looked to change major
But for cmu
Real
They asked me to write new essays
And I wasn’t doing that
And I’m not doing a diff major
I’m fine with RIT if I have to go
I mean I don’t wanna
But they let you take time off to work and that’s what I want
So 🤷♂️
I’m not fine with my acceptance 😭
Where you get in
Northeastern honors
UMass Honors
UConn Honors
Binghamton
All for CS
You’ll get into a t20
Idk man
But UMass honors is prolly better than some t20s
rejected
Don’t stress
I am too
But I have stuff to make up for it
damn.
Cracked for CS/comp bio
It’s gonna hurt if I don’t but it’s okay
I should’ve worked harder in HS
Those who get in deserve it 🤷♂️
If I get into cmu, I'm living proof affrimative action is not dead because what 💀💀💀
lol even though I was hesitant on applying here I hope I do get in
My dad and my admissions counselor have a rllyyyyy strong feeling ab it but I don’t lmfao
Why you say that
But then again I don’t feel strongly about any school
BCA?
Wdym
I looking over my application and it's not even comparable to some of the others I've seen get in lmao
I used them too
No she’s not at a company
Maybe you aren’t what they are looking for
She’s my neighbor she works as an admissions officer at a UC
its not, they have quotas at the very minimum
Just cause someone else gets in doesn’t mean you should
Her kids both went to brown for undergrad
Sheesh
That’s wild lol
Which one
Real
Sheesh
Either way she gave good advice
i was gonna use better college apps but
She warned me against Columbia ED but I didn’t listen
found better
Look what happened.
BCA was good
how much u pay in total
one of the tutors at my school used to be a duke AO
I mean I’ve gotten in no where that required essays but
I also didn’t have to pay !! To get advice.!!
Like 2-3k
W
yeah i paid like 3.6k but its private
Not smtn he could’ve changed tho so 🤷♂️
Can’t do but so much to a shit application lol
Was urs a former AO or smtn?
yale grad
dyk cassandra hsiao
No
her essay is like
I think I got the best application advice from one of my interviewers
cracked and she got in every ivy
Ahh
Wait nah I'm pretty sure I applied to the wrong major at cmu help 😭
I put stats and data science as my second choice why???
Ion remember this lol
Sucks to suck bud
You had to write a why major essay
😂
So
Idk what you wrote
💀
😂
because I am swagging like that
What ones?
Reall
I mean my major kinda intersects so it isn't that bad but I would switch them now lol
I want to be a data science researcher into marginalized communities and also learn more about the psychological effects people in those communities face so it's not that bad lol
Hopefully mentioning me being lgbtq+ 12939919 times in my application clutches up 🙏
so true
hate when people do that
So you used it to get admitted
😂
What time is it on the 15th?
Bro went Bi just for college apps
It’s rolling
squeeze out every minority that you got
ugh, rolling is bad
Ik a girl who did this
We say she’s competing in the minority Olympics
i did this for some schools
Me as a straight indian male in texas

use it
Am i cooked chat
I thought cmu releases in the morning?
(i might be wrong tho
But will all decisions be finished on that day also
Or does it continue till the 16th
are youyou can try something
The wording suggests it won’t
nah you alr got mccombs u got a good chance no kap
The wording makes me think it’ll continue till the 16th
Ya I thought that too
“Throughout March”
I’m afraid it might go beyond 16th
😭😭😭
I would’ve rather them release all of them on the same day on the 27th than this tomfoolery
I’m guessing first wave is afternoon like around 5pmPST
First wave most likely 9am or 5pm yeah
is stats + ds even worth at cmu
cuz diestrech has some gay ass requirements
Oh 9am?
Schools start that early?
I hate this school for pulling shit like this
EST
So when I wake up bruh
86k
Oh bruh so I might wake up with a decision in my email
Wait so if I’m reading this right it continues on for the month of March
That’s so scary
That’s how they worded it……..😭
Ahhh. Why bruh. Just release it all
“Throughout March”
I’m assuming the first wave is acceptances
They’re pulling a cal poly slo
Cuz I don’t see why they wouldn’t
lol I’ll just move on
Keep this chat active
lol I want to see if decisions are out in 9 am
Just received my unlikely letter 😍
You were in the very bottom percentile of our applicants and so we wanted to let you know that on decision day you can expect a disappointing outcome
No
I worked there last year and I got a $27,000 scholarship from CFA
wesley orz
orz?
orz
orz?
lmfao
i applied info systems
🧐
not rlly sure what im getting myself into
hopefully i can transfer to engineering
Is information systems hard to get into
nah lowkey im able to speedrun cs
everythings just more intuitive
anyone know how cmu admits for bxa? will they consider you separately for the two schools if one rejects
real
for info systems*
When dies this come out
worked for me
same
same
except not really it was like three sentences in my CAPS
but it'll work
tbh its getting overrated now
everyones doing it
a lot of them are gonna come off as fake/insincere
this goes for aa too
they've released 9am est on saturdays and 5pm est on fridays
waves?
really?
Oooh ok ok thanks
What does “ start releasing” mean
prolly that itll continue until the 16th & later
in waves
Prolly 15th and 16th
I assume CS first ngl
cause CS is their largest applicant pool
oh
by far
No no nothing confirmed I was just guessing
I mean I don’t think cmu is known for anything else
business
i doubt itll be rolling by school since you guys applied to two separate schools
they are ranked #8 in the US for business
Tepper business
they are ranked higher than stern lol
unless they release all acceptances first before waitlist/rejection (but i doubt that)
cmu has one of the best fine arts programs too
its even more competitive than cs for admissions
Or last 🥲
wait what did that thing that came out today even mean
decisions start happening on friday?
are they rolling or something
they say rolling but we dont really know what they'll end up doing
could be all at once, could be multiple waves, could be completely random and unpredictable
(cmu hasn't been very consistent or vocal about decision timing this year)
no they dont
they built dif this year ong
@lucid cloud give us the info
will CS come out first
or are we gonna get notified like next friday
wait is dietrich or mellon college of science harder to get into
LOL my friend applied college of science & i did dietrich
urs is less comp
well
nah
urs is more comp prolly
but generally both prolly 10-15%
ohhh
has CMU released the decision time?
no its rolling
will start on the 15th prolly go till 16th
ppl with 1000-1400 got into CMU 
^ Those ppl submitted them
Damn
Yeah def not
Unless they had some other worldly ECs
Even if I get in I won’t be able to afford it
same 😭
lol
i should not have listen to the reddit
wait we didn’t need to send an official score report right
not if you went test optional
THRY do
1410
I don't thunk it would have made a difference
Yeah we will see in 3 days
do decisions roll out throughout the day or across a few days
i feel like its usually not ONE thing causing a rejection
like test opt / bad score is not the sole reason someone will get rejected
like for columbia it was obvious that it was a mix of test opt and bad essays, i dont think the rest of my application was lacking at all
i wrote better essays after and got pretty good results while still being test opt (i dont wanna jinx tho ahhh)
international student ED1 defer . ib 42 , no SAT , mid ECs applying for SCS. am i cooked chat
bro might be cooked
applying to CS cooks you regardless, shd not be a q 💀
This is factual
The cmu admissions counselor guy said my 34 for math was low :(
Our students have been hard at work crafting a very special announcement: admission decisions for Fall 2024 will begin to release on Friday, March 15, 2024! Students are asked to keep an eye on their email for more details, as decisions will continue to be released throughout March.
yea saw
Bro what the fuck 😭
Did you submit
What’s ur compositr
Bro is an active user of r/chanceme
I am not bro
Yeah, 35 composite
Nice bro
I mean the admissions counselor LOL
This mf looked me dead in the eyes and said "yeah, a 34 in math is a bit low, have you considered Information Systems instead?"
Damn.
You got a 36 on the ACT and a 1600 SAT? Yeah ngl you might need to consider community college
I was so blown away lmao
Well, I better start prepping for my rejection
I'm just running through rejection simulators in preparation for ivy day
I did that about an hour ago lol
If I get into even ONE reach I'll actually start sobbing
All my oos schools are reaches so I'll def be sobbing if i get in one
How many did you apply? I did one safety, one middle (I forget the name), and six reaches
Got into safety with a decent scholarship and the middle one so that's nice
These last 2 weeks of march are gonna slaughter me tho lmao
Well I'm from cali so I applied pretty much all the UCs except merced and 2 csus. Out of state I applied to 8. I have 2 safeties already and potentially a 3rd
Fair enough
Gg on the safeties
I didn't apply to Cali bc it seemed too warm LOL
I'm from MN tho
yeah and its expensive for most schools and probably not worth lol
oh so you're a canadian
Basically 🙃
what's the warmest temperature in mn
Uhh
Idk
It hit 60 a few days ago
Idk what the average summer is
I've gotten -50s during some winters tho
I applied to 25 unis of which 2 are safeties 💀
Based ngl
Damn idk if my california self can handle anything below 65 lol
You only need one or two safeties
I don't even think it's ever reached below that amount in california
yeh i got into both my safeties, michigan state and virginia tech, gotten a lot of deferrals though
Fair enough
I could never
been deferred from cmu, umich, gatech, waitlisted at UIUC 😂
I'd actually prefer to be cold than to be hot
Because then you can stack layers
If you're hot then you just have to suffer lmao
It was 50 degrees outside today and I literally took an hour walk bc of how warm it was to me lol
This is the thing
you'll be alr
Yeah I'd prefer not to have to shovel my driveway every morning
