Oh
just like percentages and shit
What do you have
its not coming out is it
cbse
What’s the %
oh lol
93% in 9th, 93% in 10th, 82% in 11th ( aos know that cbse 11th is a high rise in difficulty so i can't do anything bout it, my science subjects phy chem were 74% and 72% tho so that fucked me over), 97% for my predicted scores and 89% in my 12th midterms ( 80% in chem which was slightly weak, everything else 90s)
The fuck was it worse than mine and you got better decisions than me
💀
I should’ve applied to targets fr
man shut yo ass up i'm like 100% sure i got better ecs than you
💀
my ecs are absolutely goated
Merely hearing about this portal astrology game is giving me anxiety
hypsm level ecs
came off to me like that
if you weren't tho my bad
don't do portal astrology 😭 it doesn't work
I wanna make it so bad tho
As a satirical commentary on it
make it and pin it on the server
Idk how to program
are you a cs major
Need one of the 25% of cs majors in here to do it
you could do this as a passion project
25%???
No
Around 25% of this server that filled out the census is cs yes
I REALLY EXPECTED THIS PLACE TO HAVE LIKE 60-70% CS
guys if you had to arrange the difficulty of getting into CS programs of these schools (princeton cs, cmu cs, stanford cs, berkeley cs, mit cs) (from most to least difficult) (for an intl student), how would it go
Then another like 15-20% is engineering iirc
It’ll be funny as lmao
NAHH
💀
that's wild
i fr expected 85% cs + engg
wb like stem tho
Yk if someone can do this I’d like to know too haha
Idk we’re not closing the census until June I think
And then we’d have to compile it
where is this census you speak of
mit > cmu > stanford > princeton > berkeley ( for the first 4 mit,cmu,stanford,princeton they're all equally difficult and the variation would be like the difference between a 2% acceptance rate and a 2.7% acceptance rate for example)
Part 1 is somewhere in #📢-announcements, part 2 should come out within two weeks for applicants only
Idk exactly when to release part 2 tbh
It’s a results survey
Like your admissions results
And where you committed
woudl you really say getting into cmu cs and stanford cs is the same difficulty?
also berkeley is hella tough too just to add. it's easier than the first 4, but again close to <5-7%
cmu cs is harder
stanford you get admitted to as a school
not as a major
so stanford as a drawing major or something like that is the same as stanford cs
i doubt they would be unbiased
just don't put cs then?
lol
you can pick whatever you want
it's all equally hard dawg
the same
because stanford is tough to get into as a school
same thing with princeton
neither princeton nor stanford care about which major you pick
they are both admit to school
mit is the same as well
carnegie mellon is the only school out of the 4 we're comparing which has a seperate cs department you have to specifically apply to
and it's the 2nd most competitve major in cmu
you need insane stats/ecs
i thought princeton CS would be easier than stanford cs since princeton is not a CS school whereas stanford is
bro they're all as tough
💀
you're trying to compare the difference between 2% and maybe 2.3-2.4%
brotha the difference is minor it doesnt even matter
statistically you'll get rejected from all of these
Will cmu be in 46 minutes
so
🤔 the world may never know
why bother
they work on saturdays?
Yes
3% vs 2% for example is still a 50% higher shot of admission
In previous years they always released on Saturday’s
r they releasing in batches because they think their portal will crash or what
wow bro
Definitely not
such amazing maths skills
Probably didn't finish in time
argue to a wall
No I’m good
find me anything that suggests otherwise
valid
i mean its true tho
What’s ur sat
30 minutes perchance
What are they?
Our school went 2 for 2 for CMU
Wait what do you need
Portal astrology game
Portal astrology game…
@warped orbit $10k rn and igu
Life after getting into cmu:
What major
Stanford got you bro bro🙏
didn’t app
Oh
You're still in fr
It’s still not out for me either
anyone know when cmu dropping
for those of us who they couldn't bother to give decisions to
Yeah let me give you all the money we’ve made from A2C
friday is crazy
no way they would make us wait a whole nother week
y those
They dropped last year on Saturday
Any chance they’ll release at 9 today
they better take all of us fr
Some deferred people did get their decision
I don’t think so
gg then
a majority of us are without a decision
i think that means gg
haven’t seen anyone mention that they got a decision as deferred
There was some guy on intl to usa server
Ong need to capitalize off these guys
A2C college consultants
REAL
Yeah i was referring to this
No
no idts
Deferred didnt get decisions
ppl got rejected last wave too
there’s no way every deferred applicant gets rejected
CMU deferred a lot this year tho no?
Make everyone pay subscriptions
wasnt it rare or something last few years
Member? Pay for channel access
Mod? Pay to have higher role
Idk, I saw quite a lot get rejected in ED2 for MCS
I think this is great
You can have subscriptions on discord yk
Since you are partner could be worth lowkey
i doubt it’s up
Capitalize off the discord 😂
nope
i may call tbh
:(
No
You forgor the part where subreddit will de-list me for it
please do
Why would they delist you
Please
welp, haven't got anythin on the CMU portal
next week then
bruh
Bc we can’t make money as mods it’s only okay to make money by indirectly misusing your mod position to help your consulting business
welp, haven't got anythin on the CMU portal
nothing out
really L tbh
😂
well that's stupid
Please do
This is why the rich get richer and the poor get poorer
There implicitly is
It already exists informally in the form of the community, just that nobody is making money off of it
I just don’t get a cut of it
Oh not even that
Fair
Ima start consulting next year even tho I swept almost all rejections
Makes good money 💀
I’ll spice up some cs kids github projects, form them a non profit and donate money that they pay me to make it look like they raised money
Then I’ll hire BCA to do work for $2000 and charge my client $4000
🧠
Ah yes surely he needs you as a connection to get clients
Trust my services gonna be amazing
I’ll claim our team is made up of Ivy League alumni when in reality I’ll be attending community college 🧠
CMU AO office open till 12:30
have one ivy alumnus and say your team is made of “graduates and alumni of prestigious universities, including the Ivy League”
Loll
Did you call
na lowk don’t wanna mess up or smthn
so next round is in a week?
guys, are the decisions out?
no
That’s exactly what ima do lol
I’ll have a non profit where I’m on the payroll for 98% of whatever it makes
@stoic harbor save us🙏🏾
pls
they're edge-bordering us
“begin”
oops
they're prolonging the time period for which we remain uncertain of our status... instead of just mass-releasing them on a stated date like everyone else
so is it all out today
nope
damn
so will they release anything today?
nobody knows, but i doubt it
someone should call lowk
Did the first wave seem to be completely random?
do u have their phone no? I'm calling them
yes call pls
be careful not to piss off the ao tho
let us know what they say
Could just use a number that wasn't included with their CommonApp
isnt it closed on weekend
no
oh
yeah be careful with number, caller id, etc
just said that their office hours are monday thru friday and to call back during those times
UGHHHHHHHH
💀💀💀
The Office of Admission has in person, normal office hours from Monday – Thursday, 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM ET and Friday, 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM ET.
That’s wild
fuck this
TF
yyyyeah
Bruh why couldn’t they just release all at once
I WANT MY DECISIONS
they suck
Just go to MIT smh
🤫
fr whats the point in rolling them out
Anyone who applied to CMUQ instead of the main campus?
they r doing rolling j to b different
but it seeks like a2c kids who got it back yesterday had good rates
so maybe we r cooked
I hope they’re please with themselves 😐
We’re cooked
only other school i know of that did rolling is ohio state
Guaranteed
probs cooked
😂
yup
so cooked
Like 40 A 10R lmfao
gg
maybe it's gonna be next friday
Probs
fuck that
NAHHH A WEEK
bruh
ffs
foul
time to sleep till ivy day
Actually foul
when they say a date, they gotta follow through with that shiii, or just act suspicious like Berkeley with releasing some decisions wayy before their promised date... Why are they playin' with us with these start dates
they never said all decisions will be given at X time, they said it would start rolling out at that time
more vague BS
didnt they say on the livechat thing that all would come out yesterday except drama what happened to that 😭😭
yeah, and nobody else does that ahhhhhh, they're just toying with us
I’m bout to hop on a plane and go bang down cmu doors
its the same as uwash saying "oh between 1 and 15" and then doing it on the last millisecond of the 15th
not really the same because they didn't give an end-date per se, that would've been preferrable because then we all wouldn't be holding our breaths until that end date. Instead they just gave a vague start date
they also said “all but cfa”
either way it was false😕😕
L I E S
Maybe they did their top 10% and bottom 10% yesterday 🧠
That’s why there weren’t many waitlists 🤔
Y is it rolling

and they keep sandwiching towards the middle
do you think theres any chance of 5pm today 💀
that would be really funny (but also a helpful metric)
doubt it
if that's true, then the later you get your decision, the more statistically mid you are in their eyes
!8ball will i ever hear back from cmu
😂
AM I THIS MID IN YOUR EYES

Do you think they have our decisions already or they actually haven't made their decisions yet
theyre playing TRNG right now
if they havent made their decisions they have issues
prolly haven't made their decisions yet if they're edge-bordering us this way
I think it's ready just not out yet
the end date is of course april 1st, which they said we'd have all decisions by
ah
theyre shaking a magic 8 ball for each applicant rn
dont we all 😔
back to my cave I must return then, never to emerge until the fated date
gl hf
see you on ivy day
yeah
maybe the kids that actually registered r taking longer?
it didn’t work anyone can fill it
this is copium
I didn’t do that thing
whens student admit day or wtv
That means that the rest of us are waitlisted
lmao im delulu
Since acceptance rate is only about 10-15%
i cant get over how mean it is to do rolling without emailing that theres a status update, making students check it constantly
I haven't seen any waitlists
I have
there have been no waitlists in the server poll
n on reddit
stop doing astrology and go study 😭
Real
Two other ppl in my area got decisions but not me- one acceptance and one waitlist
this is a joke
maybe they put ads on the website somewhere
whenever we refresh the page they earn money
hence the rolling admission like clickbate
someone on cc said that maybe there was a glitch last night that the emails didnt send to ppl who got decisions
Any new decisions today?
Wow e imagine cmu having technical difficulties
most likely no
Best CS program in the world and can’t release decisions properly. This school is washed

can u send the reddit link
Poll says 45 acceptances and 14 rejections. Of those who got decisions. Not looking good for those who are getting it late
tyty
People lie/troll
Tru
sample size and its a2c and ppl who get rejections less likely to do discord poll
I'm aware. Just a wide gap so I'm making assumptions. Cuz even with such factors MIT was a bloodshed
i felt so much better abt mit after seeing the collegecofidential chat omg
such a bloodshed
for cmu rolling could also be used to control class size and adjust decisions if they miscalculated yield
cmu is a lie
they only released decisions for those who signed their NDA that they wont disclose their secret
doesn’t make sense
to see how many commit between each wave
not very surprising considering they want 320k of your money
no
no
no
cmu's is so messy it made me join a2c discord
FACTS
What 😭😭😭
I would take cmu in a heartbeat
CMU Cs Yield prolly higher
is engineering out
someone ik said they got in for compE but i think they’re trolling
Ppl have gotten results for engineering but not everyone
Ugh 😭
Also all of the drama ppl have alr gotten calls
The 12 who get in 💀
So I feel like the results have def been decided idk
Why the hell i didn't received update yet
Oh crap yeah
pure speculation
Indeed
I don't think that's true bc literally no cfa ppl have gotten results yet
Gotta remember that this discord and Reddit are prolly a small percentage of all applicants tho- we can speculate but doesn’t mean it’s true
A couple years ago they sent out acceptance letters to ppl that didn’t get accepted
I’m assuming this is like a just in case situation where they’re thoroughly checking acceptances and rejections so there’s no mistakes
biggest ||*dge||
Therefore slow roll out
That’s wild
And it’s random bc they don’t want us to guess that it’s acceptances first, etc
I get why they’re doing it, I just wish they didn’t lmfao
They are doing this for fun
You know they are having fun with this
😂
They’ve never done a whole ass video before
what a shitty rollout
💀
Nah that's evil
Worse than pure rejection
are our chances slim?
my friend from same school got accepted yesterday am i cooked
Chances are in a state of superposition.
😭
Won’t know until it comes out.
Shroedinger’s cmu decision
Who in the AO office thought this was a good idea
No one knows for sure but I don’t think they’d release over the weekend
ahh okay fair
damn i cant keep waiting 😭😭
i wish they didnt announce the date in advance and just rolled out decisions
but other colleges do release on weekends though
i wouldnt have gotten my hopes up
true like CW is today
Last year cmu released on a Saturday didn’t they??
I think so
what time
9am last yr pretty sure
Their ED released on a Sunday I think. I searched it up, so maybe they can release it over the weekend but I’m assuming not
I was speculating a 9am second wave today but nah
hmmm
I have decided that if I get into nowhere else I will be going to Carnegie Mellon
I hate cmu for doing this rolling crap
love the fact that lm has a decision at all
nah bro i can't keep waiting throughout the rest of the month
Lol idek anymore
Where else u gotten in
Here's my ranking list and where I'd gotten
Ive
Schools in Canada are worse but they're much much cheaper but idk what to do
Oh deffered ?
Like I'd rather go to Carnegie but
I was too but haven’t gotten my decision 😞
Yes
I truly think they just accepted mostly ppl who were top applicants
44 accepts, 0 waitlists, 15 rejects
hmm...
Also I just want to end up in the states bc I like it so much better plus I put so much work into everything like SATs ecs and everything and I don't want that to have been a waste of time
stats?
1510 sat, 770 m 740 rw, 4.0 uw 4.idk what weighted bc im from canada and we dont do gpa but im in IB, had a npo that did 5k, started a tennis program that brought 11k in revenue, president of deca at my school, a community service club, prefect at my school (its like a student council), varsity hockey team captain, idk those are kind of the big things
ah W
i still havent gotten a decision 😭
1580 SAT
4.0
18 APs
30k rev from a game released
Holy you'll get something dw
nope
UCLA AND UCSD rejected me
💀
im royally fucked
7 decisions left all reaches
What program...
im fucked
ig im not fucking bill gates so i dont get in
fuck bro
i want CMU so bad
dream school since soph year
U in state for it?
Stanford got you🙏
nope
didnt app
Yeah I applied UCLA and UCSD OOS, go waitlisted for SD but like idk why I applied cuz I ain’t paying 80k for ts
I ain’t filling out the waitlist form tho yall can have my waitlist spot
Oh
i have dartmouth
cornell
columbia
uhh
vanderbilt
cmu
and something im missing….
hmmmm
Neat list — wish I were so organized!
You are
Looking at people here with 100x more impressive resumes who got rejected from the same schools I did I realize I have no chance
When do decisions come today
Today? 💀
we dont know
real
pretty sure stern and NYU's college of arts and science have same acceptance rate
both are about 7%
So do y'all think it could still come today or Monday is the earliest it will come
Yesterday I sW some people said 9am Saturday
But yeah try not to stress it will come when it comes 👍
stern is prob lower than arts and sciences
I agree
Yeah but we are already past 9 am so just curious if people still think it could come today
NYU RD is coming?
ivy day
i think most likely it wont come today but if it does it would prob be at 5
Is their live chat thingy open
When you don't have to go to your state school because you have cmu🙏
Not on weekends :/
Oh yeah u right I’m pst oops
😠
I’d be happy to go to my state school
Getting into cmu was the same feeling as getting a 1480 on sat. A sigh of relief knowing that I'm free of worrying about my sat stats, still was aiming for 1580
And happiness
I checked in school and I was completely shocked lmao
Fr bro
Couldn’t be too happy cuz class was still in
congrats
How come
My first name
Ohh
It's unique af
True never met a person with that name
didnt see it ngl
Now I feel like you saw it💀
😹
lol. u are fine tho i actually didnt see it
SCS?
ECE w/ math minor
Sheesh
I forgot they made me submit all my sat scores so I had to submit my second one which was worse too 💀
They didn't make me?
Strange
u didnt have to send all SATs. It changed this year
Oh I’m dumb 💀
When are decisions coming out y'all
lol
Didn't get mine yesterday
It said on college board so idk
Between now and Q4
Q4?
Between now and April first
between now and end of march
CMU weird for making half of u guys wait while other half got it yesterday 😹
Hopefully, we'll see
decisions probably dropping on friday
i feel like
just the two remaining fridays in march
That is foul
Expect Friday, if they drop today 5pm, take it as a pleasant surprise
from the instagram:
“Admission decisions for Fall 2024 domestic and international undergraduate applicants will continue delivery Monday and over the next days and weeks.
Applicants will receive a decision email regardless of their status.”
** and weeks **

despicable ik
dude my interview was january 16th
U guys had an interview??
I can’t believe I got in still for cs
Bro they need to stop playing and be for real
imposter syndrome diff
only the college of fine arts has interviews
oh I see
their RD deadline was also december 1😶
which makes it even crazier that they’re the only college that hasn’t released a single decision yet
i’m so tired🧎🏻
So some people should expect Monday?
who
WEEKS😭😭😭
Oh college of fine arts
I guess so
I got mine the second it came out
I don’t want this to be like neu where I have to check the portal each night
guess I’m mad lucky
there’s not any specific person that should expect monday though, we have no idea what their plan for rollout is
But they didn’t send out emails so like
they weren’t sure whether decisions would be ready in time
I keep checking my letter cause I thought it was fake
😑
Bros not even there yet and you already got imposter syndrome
Uva or cmu?
i mean it’s stressful now but i’d rather rolling beginning march 15th than have yet another school releasing their decisions late march
Is that the cs acceptance rate
yeah
It’s so over
if I got in u can get in
Thanks I just gotta wait for my decision
you’ll be chillin dude
If I’m Scottish does that give me a boost in admissions
probably
I got my uva decision like 2 minutes after my cmu one too
actually one of the best days of my life
cmu with their already low yield making more enemies within their applicants
Applicants rise and revolt let’s make their yield rate 1% 🫡
I am down
I’ll be within that 1%
sobs cfa applicants rise up
it’s hard being an academic AND artistic weapon👊😔
still nuthin 🫡😔
fr like youre telling me i have to maintain straight a’s and practice 40 hours a day?
Cmu opps
Artists truly have my respect
One of the most challenging career paths for sure
Cause you have to bring to life for the most part what others imagine
All that on a 12k salary too
My artists are paid like $60/h 💀
per hour?
any waves since 5pm est yesterday?
These mfers ain’t cheap
Next wave on Monday
No they’ll start Monday
Rs
I got mine and I did sign a few things ngl…
cMIDu
lol if I got in I'd be dripped out in CMU stuff
CMU waterbottle
CMU hoodie
CMU keychain
did another wave drop?
frrr I need to get some stuff
when does it come out?
instagram story
evidence?
yeah thats what ppl saying
but they will be releasing till the end of the month i think
Its on ig
oh damn
when’s the latest we can get our decision
yeah its so annoying
@crimson sluice stop spamming my dms with self promo
April 1st 💀
I think so
Its like carnegiemellonudnergraduateadmissions
Or smt
Idr lol
Prob cmuundergrad stuff
is it based on when you submitted your app?
dude looking at this
Nah
thank you so much
They released them randomly ngl 💀
this actually sucks for everyone who didnt get it 😭
like
the wait
is probablyso stressful 😭
No correlation between schools, date of submission, or geographic region
I already gave up so no stress 💀
LOL
cmu likely
ily
praying to be ur roommate
trustt
MY TEXAS KING ❤️
re: this
Ig this answers our question
Smhhhhh
Bro atp it sounds like they're still deliberating on some decisions
If you're releasing over the course of weeks it's def not cause you have portal issues
agreed
Sobbing
Cmu is screwing wikth me
Why even release decisions early atp
yeah fr
just say that due to the amount of application they're considering they need to release a little late
Not even late they said by April 1 and released pretty late previous years
would you rather have them release on ivy day lol
bruh
when's the email though
hello mr mellon plz give me my rejection now k thanks luv
lmfao
That would make sense
the admitted students they prolly had an easy time deciding on
same with rejects
the rest of us are prolly either on the edge of being accepted, waitlisted, or rejected
Most likely waitlisted/rejected
yeup
But I'm sure some will get pushed through lol
I truly think I've got a chance but idk
could also be they just havent gotten to some
I'm a power applicant for my major lol
whatd you apply for
They've gotten to mine 
CS

ohhh
☠️
They shouldve done Defers first like this is wild the fact they making me wait longer
I'm lowkey prolly like right on the edge of a waitlist/acceptance
fr thats crazy
My gpa is whats fucking me
and my B+ in Calc BC which was due to like 14 missing homeworks 
damn, whats ur gpa
I had a 4.5 last semester would've been like a 4.55-6 if I did my calc homework lmfao
Current is a 4.1/2
for me its tests i get screwed on
I just dont have time to do work outside of school but ik the work
lol
Like I can ace the calc tests
I learn stuff really quick my issue is the filler work, always has been
yea thats good at least
Like quit giving me shit I dont need to do
that's crazy though, how can it be that every ED deferred is on the edge 😭
some who ED got decisions
Some were acceptances
none were rejections cause well
like
they arent gonna defer you if ur shit xd
u sure?
that means we’re cooked no? 💀
u think this confirms the portal load theory? @worthy anvil
bc they said we’ll get emails regardless of our portal status
i feel like deferred and waitlisted are the same level status
if ur not good enough for ed why would u be good enough for rd
considering ed for most schools is supposed to show ur interest in the school
perhaps the students in ed are stronger
true
aw man, i was kinda hopeful on CMU
but it's alright
i think math at UCLA is a lot stronger than CMU anyway so it doesn't hurt me that much
When are RD decisions coming out?
strong
NOOO SORRY im still hopeful here 🥲
look at the pinned messages
Wdym load theory lol
Idk about you but I ain’t 🙏 I got god on my side
Even when no one believed in me
God did
!
i have the power of god and anime on my side
like releasing all the apps at once would've been portal intensive
pretty much that they're rolling bc of the portal
that theory
i pulled that theory out of my ass
i thought cmu might host their website on university servers
and university servers didnt go well with usaco
How bro
but they've released such a small portion of applicants
indecisive-chan
nah cmu has been updating their portal this year and its been shit throughout
Idk 🤷♂️
Worked well for me ED
came exactly at 5pm lol
yeah
ed2?
idk about ed2
part of me thinks they're still re-evaluating ED applicants
since all of us already had our apps reviewed
RD was first time review
otherwise they wdn't really withhold deferred students from getting a decision
? What makes u think that. I always thought CMU math and cs was much stronger as they have several concentrations and research done
ucla math is like top 10 ranked in the world
ED2 got decisions pushed back
I thought ucla math better
UCLA's math department is a lot stronger and well, i have heard that the professors are a lot better and much more reknowned
like tao ong
terrence tao is also at ucla yeh
Didn’t know that
ofc math at CMU is not bad, that's why i ED2'd there lmao
oh damn
Nonetheless congrats for ucla
carnegie mellonnn stop edging
Huge W
lol I wonder if they are planning on dropping some decisions every single day next week
i think they are
according to pinned message
in this thread
thank you! good luck for your apps too
idk if I wanna commit now after getting in and talking to a current student
when is the next wave
Some defer got in
Hey did anybody get in for engineering?
I applied MechE, and idk if I can switch to ECE
ECE is rlly hard to switch to from what I’ve heard but it’s possible just difficult
fuckkkk
if you're admitted you're admitted to the ENTIRETY of cit (college of engineering)
Yeah you can change if ur in CoE
so you dont declare an engineering major until the end of year 1
You are undeclared till y2
oh wait fr?
first year you take an "intro to xxx eng" course each semester
So I can get into ECE
and thats the only requirement for that major
so if you put down meche on ur common app
and you get in to CIT
then all you have to do is take "intro to ece" in first or second sem
and then declare!
thx man i appreciate the help
Man so ima have to wait till 5pm on Monday to know if I get in and then maybe 5pm on Tuesday or Wednesday or Thursday or Friday 😞 they are wrong for this
Why u say that? Usaco was fine most of the time (for me at least) except that one ddos attack a few months back
have there been any new waves? or is the next one expected at 5pm today
next one is monday
it is such a crime. straight up geneva violation
if i wait till monday just for a waitlist/rejection i will cry
i'll legit cry harder than i did getting rejected by UCSD
Did u get into ucla
Same that ucsd decision hit me to the core
It was like legit my dream school I would have went over ucla
Same here.
