[raw crystal]

Is the live chat on CMU portal?

[vital solar]

It’s admissions website

then scroll down

[raw crystal]

Oh this one? https://www.cmu.edu/admission/contact-us

[final nexus]

[quasi quarry]

whoever didnt get it

[raw crystal]

Hmmm maybe a possibility 🤔 Trying to cope

[sharp phoenix]

[shut fable]

Why would they drop it at such a random time

[cloud dagger]

Waitlisted as well

[halcyon patio]

a lot of people i know got rejected in first wave

[shut fable]

Nah cuz everyone is getting waitlisted

[north hamlet]

[shut fable]

Anyone not have it yet or just got rejected?

[crude sparrow]

waitlisted

[halcyon patio]

fr

[shut fable]

Or accepted?

Does anyone not have it

[crude sparrow]

is this for real

[raw crystal]

Yeah so either all the waitlisted people's decisions are dropped late or it's a portal bug but I feel like it's the former, but decision is dropped at such a random time

[shut fable]

Or got accepted or rejected

[fallen pike]

react if you got waitlisted

[sweet horizon]

shit they just randomly dropped???

[north hamlet]

did people get waitlisted last friday?

[thorn mason]

does anyone not have a decision

[devout heart]

yeah they did

[small imp]

waitlisted

[devout heart]

some even got rejected

[shut fable]

We think it’s a portal bug cuz everyone got waitlisted

[stone inlet]

i dont but i applied school of music

[cloud dagger]

???

[raw crystal]

Hmmm so what if they just drop rejected, accepted, and waitlisted people at the same time?

[devout heart]

did anyone get accepted/rejected rn

[sweet horizon]

anyways answer poll guys ^

[shut fable]

Boost

[sweet horizon]

it could be that waitlisted people are getting decisions rn because in the first wave nobody got waitlisted

[thorn mason]

Wait it makes sense now, no one got waitlisted in the first wave

[north hamlet]

NO WAY 50 PEOPLE GOT ACCEPTED

[rustic yarrow]

ppl only got waitlisted?

[shut fable]

Anyone also not yet receive decisions?

[outer musk]

waitlisted

[cerulean crow]

WAITLIST LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

[shut fable]

Everybody so far has been waitlisted, no rejections or missing decisions

[cerulean crow]

YEASSSZSS
SADIFALNDFSKJNDFKJNDSFKJNSFD

[devout heart]

not receiving decisions doesnt mean its a reject guys people also got rejected in the first wave

[chrome fulcrum]

DID YOU MAKE IT IN?

[cerulean crow]

waitlist

[cloud dagger]

This is confusing lmaool

[sharp phoenix]

Wait everyone got waitlisted here then

[cerulean crow]

:DD:DDDD

[rain cypress]

[cerulean crow]

[chrome fulcrum]

HOORAYY

[shut fable]

It has to be a bug

[cerulean crow]

[chrome fulcrum]

LETS GOOOOOOOOO

[sharp phoenix]

React if you got anything but waitlisted

[cerulean crow]

yea

[cloud dagger]

Were most people waitlisted???

[small imp]

i think today yeah

[sharp phoenix]

Assuming this wave was waitlists

[raw crystal]

So they drop the decision based on their result

[shut fable]

Literally everybody got waitlisted

[pulsar vapor]

2nd wave might just be mostly waitlists lmao

[raw crystal]

Yeah I think so

[quasi quarry]

no they upload by waves

[small imp]

i heard of rejections happening last fri

[shut fable]

Nobody has said they haven’t gotten a decision yet

[outer musk]

what's the waitlist rate

[thorn mason]

people who dont have a decision 💀

[chrome fulcrum]

Got in first wave

[sweet horizon]

omg congratssss

[cerulean crow]

POLL FROM MODS UP HERE

[chrome fulcrum]

[marsh solstice]

[sweet horizon]

mb ill delete

[marsh solstice]

dont make speculation like that

people got waitlisted first wave

[thorn mason]

the poll had no one for waitlist btw

[shut fable]

I think this might be a bug idk tho cuz why would they drop it at like 1:33 and everybody got waitlisted

[quasi quarry]

no 0 ppl did

[thorn mason]

but i still dont think that means the next wave is all rejections

[shut fable]

They said more acceptances were coming out but that was live chat so could have been misinformation

[chrome fulcrum]

a2c acceptance rate for both waves is crazy

[raw crystal]

Prob but maybe not a lot 🤔

[cerulean arch]

GOT WAITLISTEF

[valid iron]

Got waitlisted

[cerulean arch]

[cerulean crow]

[cinder thorn]

I'm happy, I thought I was getting rejected

[fast mesa]

No

[steel cloak]

oh okey w

[raw crystal]

Imagine they gonna release a statement saying oops our bad it was a bug 💀

[hollow ivy]

damn whoever said they werent releasing acceptances first straight 🧢 🧢

[shut fable]

How do you live chat

[raw crystal]

Yeah I think the majority get waitlisted 🥲 (for this wave)

[pulsar vapor]

i would lowk be annoyed asf if that were the case

[steel cloak]

did @cerulean crow get in?

[marsh solstice]

people got acceptances and rejections first wave

[wispy snow]

pls tell me someone got accepted

[marsh solstice]

this wave could be majority waitlist/reject, majority waitlist/accept

time will tell

[quasi quarry]

yh but those were straight rejections, and ALOTT got accepted

[strong cedar]

Waitlisted cmu

Lmao

[pliant pawn]

bro

[raw crystal]

Yeah that's very annoying it took all the fun out of it why don't just release at the same time why release time based on results it's so predictable

[pliant pawn]

waitlisted its joever

[hexed pewter]

did anyone get straight rejected

[shut fable]

Ok this has to be a bug not cope I swear

[steel cloak]

anyone get in this round?

[sweet horizon]

[cinder thorn]

It's not ever

[small imp]

[strong cedar]

💀 the waitlist chain goes insane

[crimson sluice]

Waitlisted CMU ☠️

[shut fable]

I’m thinking it’s a bug idk tho

[raw crystal]

Sounds like it

[crimson sluice]

More waiting is crazy

[cinder thorn]

I was also test optional for cmu, and waitlisted

[fallen pike]

Isn’t the decisions supposed to come out at 5pm?

[cloud dagger]

We r cooked 😂

[sharp phoenix]

Wait so if you got waitlisted you can still get admitted for first or second major right?

[glad silo]

Waitlist

[cloud dagger]

Yeah

[steel cloak]

rip waitlist

[sharp phoenix]

Ok ty

[marsh solstice]

poll

[undone ether]

waitlist

[quasi quarry]

is it always like this that so many ppl get waitlsited

[hollow ivy]

im guessing they wanted to see yield so there should be a few acceptances out but mostly wl im guessing

[chrome fulcrum]

someone from my school the same. eh ecs, test optional,

[steel cloak]

we need a new poll for this round

[stone inlet]

theres no way this isnt an accident

[cerulean crow]

its def an accident

[undone ether]

i feel like this is def some sort of accident on some end

[pulsar vapor]

only thing that changed is waitlist number

[steel cloak]

honestly screwed up they released all the waitlists last

[cloud dagger]

Cmu has the worst desicion rollout in the world 💀

[pulsar vapor]

1 -> 18 wl

[marsh solstice]

no

[raw crystal]

Hopefully I don't wanna get waitlisted 😭

[steel cloak]

really? no one's gotten accepted or rejected so far?

[marsh solstice]

it's still one RD

[sweet horizon]

you should check the purdue thread lol

[thorn mason]

I have a theory
They were delaying all this time bc they didnt have time to review them all. Now they waitlist a bunch of people they didnt have time to go through to not get even more hate and shit

[pulsar vapor]

not for this round today

[quasi quarry]

0--> 17, since the 1 was a bot

[steel cloak]

yeah but i want the analysis. has anyone gotten in this round?

[steel cloak]

damn thats screwed

[upbeat eagle]

I got waitlisted that’s sad

[quasi quarry]

I meant to reply to this*

[sweet horizon]

if people are posting their results you can check that in the results channels

[cinder thorn]

Yes

[flat sluice]

fyi for ppl wondering about numbers: last year 34k applied, 3.8k admitted, 9k waitlisted

[shut fable]

Nobody has said anything in celebration or rejects

[cinder thorn]

It tells you you can

[polar lark]

Anyone asking live chat 👀

[north hamlet]

waitlist is pretty fire, u probably had strong ECs

[raw crystal]

I don't see anyone got accepted in the celebration yet

[steel cloak]

what's live chat

[shut fable]

Trying to but I can’t find it

[quasi quarry]

oh then its always like that

[marsh solstice]

what is there to ask live chat?

[polar lark]

If this is a mistake/if waves are based on decisions

[steel cloak]

damn :c so if u didn't get in before ur just cooked?

[sharp phoenix]

Who here hasn’t gotten a decisions yet

[cerulean crow]

yea im soooo scared its a mistake

[raw crystal]

Bruh 9k waitlisted is crazy they're doing some crazy yield protection

[pliant pawn]

bro waitlisted scs its over for me

[flat sluice]

they only admitted 43 off wl last year

[sweet pivot]

It's so over

[cerulean crow]

how many got off waitlist

[cloud dagger]

Daz crazy lmaoooooo

[raw crystal]

Sounds like it maybe a few people are an exception but it sounds like it I don't see anyone's getting rejected or accepted in this random wave

[halcyon patio]

that was 2 years ago

[tired swallow]

wait is it out

[hollow ivy]

im just curious but i heard they do "priority waitlist" for everyone?

[cerulean arch]

They are filtering ivy leaguers and stanford, usc, gatech, etc.

[halcyon patio]

last year info isn't out yet

[cerulean crow]

[main cedar]

Out*

[sage oriole]

ITS OUT

[halcyon patio]

never been wrong once

[boreal ivy]

[sharp phoenix]

[thorn mason]

Does it matter if i submit my waitlist form now, or if i submit it in like 2 weeks

[storm pewter]

[main cedar]

Cmu yield protect?

[boreal ivy]

[boreal ivy]

I applied ME tho

[tired swallow]

what your results boy

[steel cloak]

oh they don't?

[steady thunder]

cmu does not yield protect

[quasi quarry]

maybe for other majors but def not for scs

[raw crystal]

What if the AOs didn't have enough time to go through all of the applications so that's why they're late and now they just waitlist everyone they didn't finish reading so that they'll have more time reading people on the waitlist 💀

[chrome fulcrum]

😭

[steel cloak]

oh dang okay

[cerulean crow]

lmao

[shut fable]

Lowkey tho

[tired swallow]

[upbeat eagle]

Did they accept anybody in this batch?

[pliant pawn]

bro?? is everyone waitlisted???

[shut fable]

I’m just saying no way everyone in this chat got waitlisted like this has to be a bug or smth

[sweet horizon]

yield protection is when they think you're overqualified and they think you're going to a better school right? where do they think you're going if you get yield protected at all the top schools 💀

[thorn mason]

lmao did they even leave another batch??

[storm pewter]

no way we all got waitlisted

[pliant pawn]

this is bugged bro

[sharp phoenix]

Yeah we all got waitlisted

[mint lantern]

Everyone seems to be getting waitlisted

[quasi quarry]

react to this if you did not get a decision yet

[boreal ivy]

cmu rejects and accepts the first batch and just waitlists the second

[sharp phoenix]

[heady oasis]

[shut fable]

Everyone has priority waitlist and everyone got waitlisted

[still pendant]

what does this mean

[cerulean crow]

but everyone?

[sage oriole]

no clue

[raw crystal]

It said "priority waitlist" for me so they prob call their waitlist "priority" unless someone has a different thing

[ebon prairie]

Not according to cds

[pliant pawn]

surely a bug surely

[heady oasis]

m in cmu stands for mid

[gritty tusk]

in the letter or on the form

[sweet horizon]

i mean some people got in/got rejected the first wave
there could still be more waves and still other decisions

[shut fable]

It’s a bug bro trust the intern messed it up

[chrome fulcrum]

CMU just released the applications today so yall would get off their backs about the deadline☠️ All of them are waitlists because they still arent done

[raw crystal]

In the form

[digital kestrel]

ALL CMU APPLICANTS: please do this poll !

[cerulean crow]

[steel cloak]

has anyone not gotten a decision?

[livid pendant]

I haven't

[still pendant]

it means its a ranked waitlist I think

[torn hare]

I think today everyone got waitlisted and idk if this is a bug or not

[left lantern]

anyone accepted in this wave?

[chrome fulcrum]

not today but accepted last wave

[sweet horizon]

all im saying is that its very unlikely that a prestigious top cs school like cmu would have messed up on a scale like this

[raw crystal]

Yeah so everyone's the same then

[pliant pawn]

react if no decion yet

[cerulean crow]

guys what does this mean

[still pendant]

bruh

[steel cloak]

well yeah but is anyone still waiting

[sage oriole]

it means it’s random

[ebon prairie]

Its not solely stats based

[pliant pawn]

its random

[sharp phoenix]

It means they roll a dice to decide who gets off the WL

[still pendant]

cmu is dumb as shit

[cerulean crow]

[final nexus]

[cerulean arch]

So, what does this mean?

[neon wasp]

Last year 8000 were waitlisted 4700 accepted a spot on the waitlist and like 40 got off of it

[lofty stirrup]

hi guys

[flat sluice]

i have friends that still dont have a decision

[left lantern]

do you think they could be like "oopsie" and reject you like the 2015 acceptance bug

[raw crystal]

Best CS school 🤡

[shut fable]

Hopefully (copium)

[ebon prairie]

What was that

[neon wasp]

This year there are gonna be even more waitlists considering this whole server got waitlisted if not accepted 😭

[mystic mulch]

How many got off the waitlist?

[cerulean crow]

wait rly? is my waitlist genuine?

[chrome fulcrum]

I swear if it is💀

[digital kestrel]

a reminder to all:
regardless if you were waitlisted, rejected, don’t get off the waitlist, your worth is not defined by where you go to college, and you will end up where you are meant to!
still the best of luck to you all

[sharp phoenix]

What’s Mellon doing bruh🍈

[neon wasp]

40 ish

[lofty stirrup]

Did the last decisions come out?

[raw crystal]

So 0.5% nice

[mystic mulch]

…

[final nexus]

amen

[left lantern]

they sent acceptances to people on their portal and then they said oh it was a mistake and rejected them later and took the acceptances back

[sage oriole]

im fucked

[shut fable]

Yeah and literally everyone got waitlisted

[neon wasp]

[steel cloak]

[lofty stirrup]

HUH????

[pliant pawn]

[sage oriole]

bro im fucked do u think it’s a mistake

[flat sluice]

no i still have friends at my school waiting for decisions

[blissful mirage]

I didn't get my decision

[raw crystal]

So getting off the waitlist is more impressive than getting into any ivy lmao

[pure frigate]

is the waitlist very large for cmu?

[neon wasp]

They did that a few years ago it’s def never happening again

[cerulean arch]

@cerulean crow do you think theyre trying to filter students whould go to gtech and ivy leagues?

[main cedar]

When was this

[halcyon patio]

opposite happening this year we all getting in waitlist was an accident

[flat sluice]

keep in mind cmu waitlists a lot of people (9k two years ago)

[pliant pawn]

man I pray for this to be a bug knowing that I would get rejected otherwise 💀

[lofty stirrup]

good because I got in last week

[left lantern]

what school in cmu?

[blissful mirage]

CFA

[raw crystal]

Bro wtf that was my EXACT fear when I got a decision from Stanford 💀 I was thinking like how long are they allowed to take their decision back

[chrome fulcrum]

cmu is a top cs school. they want the ivy league students to go there 💀

[quasi quarry]

Oh they said not all of cfa will come out today

[cerulean crow]

probably, they just care abt their yield smh, screw how the students feel
theyre heartless bruh

[steel cloak]

SAME

[shut fable]

Did anyone not in cfa not get a decision????

[lofty stirrup]

wdym filter

[quasi quarry]

In live chat

[neon wasp]

Yeah and considering that there are even gonna be even more people waitlisted this year u have a better chance of winning the lottery than getting off 😭 esp if ur CS or COE

[halcyon patio]

guess i'm buying a lottery ticket

[lofty stirrup]

let me check my portal and make sure they didn’t unaccept me

[quasi quarry]

Are ur friends cfa?

[shut fable]

Waitlisted

[small imp]

okay i’m p sure they just waitlisted practically everyone at my school who didn’t get in

[cerulean crow]

and its unranked, so i (horrible app) can get in instead of a student like one of yall overqualified gods :P

[sand pelican]

did everything come out?

[flat sluice]

yeah

[quasi quarry]

Yh then that's why

[shut fable]

Makes sense cuz cfa is separate

[quasi quarry]

All decisions are out then lol

[shut fable]

Y’all so they literally just waitlisted everybody lmao

[neon wasp]

What does priority waitlist even mean ☠️

[cerulean crow]

did any non-cfa apps get anything other than a waitlist rn or no decision at all

[left lantern]

can cmu release a statement or something, this seems very odd that its all waitlists and so few rejects (if any)

[chrome fulcrum]

cmu class of 2028 will be an intresting class

[onyx falcon]

hi

[lofty stirrup]

Did any rejections come out

[quasi quarry]

It's a2c, so all are top 50 percent of app pool

[small imp]

not today but last week yeah

[left lantern]

what % in scs is waitlisted

[plush spruce]

is it a glitch lol

[stoic vine]

OMG NO WAY

[quasi quarry]

35 percent get waitlisted apparently, 11 percent accepted

[left lantern]

what about scs

[quasi quarry]

Idk ngl but seems like alot did

[light stone]

so today all got waitlisted?

[raw crystal]

And I would take winning a lottery than getting off the waitlist anytime

[sweet pivot]

Yes

[cinder bramble]

I'd be suprised if more than 0.5% of the waitlist gets accepted in the end

[neon wasp]

Yeah but this year it feels like 80% were waitlisted ☠️

[north otter]

WHAT THE FUCK 💀

[chrome fulcrum]

this account was made march 22, 2024. bro is about to troll

[north otter]

CMU really selling holy shit 💀 💀 💀

[cerulean crow]

lmao

[raw crystal]

True lol hard yield protecting

[quasi quarry]

No there were 16 rejections ,and like 30 waitlists in A2C

[shut fable]

They said not all acceptances are out yet, and the Chinese student thing from Reddit also said the same thing

[steel cloak]

KMAO YEAH

[final nexus]

[tired swallow]

[hollow idol]

[stoic vine]

I got waitlisted

[lofty stirrup]

Fr cmu is just Stanford but no social life and more work

[obtuse phoenix]

Apparently 😭

[quasi quarry]

So it seems right since A2C almost all are top 50 percent of applicant pool

[upbeat eagle]

LOL it went from like 3 to 52

[steel cloak]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

[shut fable]

It has to be a bug bro got a Columbia likely

[final nexus]

did all decisions come out? (besides cfa)

[stoic vine]

Dont even try bro 😂😂😂

[grave jungle]

is waitlist by college or no

[small imp]

prob like 0 this year lmao

[quasi quarry]

Yh prolly

[boreal ivy]

we WL gotta surpass accepted!

[stoic vine]

????? U good?

[cerulean arch]

What the fuck is wrong with cmu. Cant they just reject at this point. Or are they going to like come out and say its a bug?

[graceful oar]

i would think so

[azure pike]

waitlist university

[steel cloak]

just go columbia then right?

[hollow idol]

is the waitlist based on how fast you join the waitlist or they actually rereview everyones stuff

[steel cloak]

random afaik

[marsh solstice]

They aren’t going to look at how fast you join

[hollow idol]

also has anyone gotten flat rejection?

[marsh solstice]

It’s going to be on what they need

[cinder bramble]

They kinda also ask for new material (300 words)

[raw crystal]

They're gonna announce that new name change soon trust

[stoic vine]

U dont got a chance bro it dont matter if you join it after deadline ur chances are 0

[copper flower]

pain

[graceful oar]

??

[tired swallow]

guys my stats are way too bad for a waitlist at cmu they definitely didn't look at my app

[weary wave]

bru i got waitlisted

[hollow idol]

when is the deadline

[marsh solstice]

Like if many people in the art school decline, then CMU might go looking for an art student tk teplace

[final nexus]

bruh what the fuck

[stoic vine]

June 30

[hollow idol]

tbh i was expecting rejection. im surprised i even got this far

[final nexus]

it says it wasnt binding on my screen... and i got priority waitlist

[eternal sparrow]

it literally says on the notice that its not binding 😭

[raw crystal]

I don't think so they said it's not binding

[storm pewter]

cmu is a tech school, it isn’t a bug 💀

[chrome fulcrum]

whats priority waitlist

[hollow idol]

everyone should not join the waitlist

[hardy dock]

U read it wrong 💀

[shut fable]

Yeah it’s true the priority waitlist is binding, so this has to be a bug because you only can sign up for that

[stoic vine]

Guys everyone decline waitlist in protest of this bumbo school

[cerulean arch]

They already fkced up their portal

[raw crystal]

Oh yeah you got accepted you don't know lmao

[upbeat eagle]

There’s no way that’s true lol

[final nexus]

no way they let us wait a week just to waitlist everyona lmfao im so done

[stoic vine]

I already did

[raw crystal]

True don't join the waitlist plz ;)))

[flat sluice]

if ur looking at that one person's webpage on google thats like 16 years old

[sharp phoenix]

How do I get waitlisted when I’m not even top 10% of my class and I applied SCS with barely any CS EC’s its defo a mistake

[hardy dock]

Better than rejection

[graceful oar]

wait how does that mean its a bug

[steel cloak]

apparently priority waitlist is supposed to be better than normal waitlist, but they just priority waitlisted everyone. i wonder if that's because the normal waitlist is supposed to be un ranked, so maybe they can rank the prio waitlist?

[upbeat eagle]

If you Ed a college you need like parents signature and your guidance counselor’s signature cuz it’s binding no way this is binding

[marsh solstice]

everyone has priority waitlist tho

[steel cloak]

priority waitlist isn't binding i don't think

[raw crystal]

??? If that's the case then I'll wait a little bit before I do anything then why is it binding

[hardy dock]

How do ik if its priority waitlist or normal waitlist

[marsh solstice]

maybe that's just the name of the waitlist

[tired swallow]

@mystic mulch

[cerulean arch]

This is either a mistake. Or a prestiege filter. They are fcking with us either way

[cerulean crow]

whoever got a waitlist dont join it. no reason at all just dont join the waitlist

[hardy dock]

What is priority waitlist bruh all i see is waitlist

[grave jungle]

4 our of 2835?

[cerulean arch]

In the form...?

[flat sluice]

im pretty sure priority waitlist is not biding (there used to be a page on admissions website over priority vs non priority but i cant find it so they might be changing it this year)

[cinder bramble]

I'd rather buy lottery ticket at this point

[marsh solstice]

those of you with priority waitlist, why not read your letter in full

[shut fable]

Click on waitlist response form

[hardy dock]

Ohh there

[marsh solstice]

im sure if it was binding the letter would say so

[lofty stirrup]

4/3k ur cooked guys

[simple hill]

wtf

[shut fable]

Did so, no mention at all of priority waitlist

[cerulean arch]

Does the priority waitlist actually work?

[hardy dock]

it says it is not binding

[tired swallow]

"Adding yourself to the waitlist is not binding"

[iron smelt]

Waitlisted lmao

[lofty stirrup]

bro just click it even if it is binding you can always give a reason not to go

[marsh solstice]

thanks for reading it guys

[pliant pawn]

imma be the exception

[quasi quarry]

I'm pretty sure everyone gets priority waitlist

[steel cloak]

actually this seems right. that's crazy yield prot?

[upbeat eagle]

Yea exactly lmao

[lofty stirrup]

People break Ed agreements alllll the time

[oak goblet]

i was always different than yall.

[ebon prairie]

Did anyone get rejected today

[steel cloak]

oh not bringing lolol

[final nexus]

did anyone NOT get priority waitlist?

[neon wasp]

So is the waitlist binding

[simple hill]

To add yourself to our waitlist, complete the Waitlist Reply Form in your Where Am I in the Process? portal. Adding yourself to the waitlist is not binding; you will not be required to accept should you be offered admission from the waitlist. However, only those who request to be added will be offered admission from the waitlist if space becomes available. If you submit this form, Carnegie Mellon will add you to the waitlist and will consider your first-choice and second-choice (if one was selected) programs when making a final decision.

[quasi quarry]

Does anyone not have this

[cerulean arch]

These are all soft rejections. What us up with this school?

[narrow hinge]

waitlisted bruh

[south tide]

did anyone get in this round?

[simple hill]

Everyone show sthat. It is NOT binding

[final nexus]

i think everyone got waitlisted

[marsh solstice]

it's what happens with a sub 20 acceptance rate

[raw crystal]

So everyone got a "priority waitlist"?

[marsh solstice]

lots of waitlists, lots of rejection

[quasi quarry]

Yep

[marsh solstice]

yes everyone gets priority waitlist

[hexed marlin]

no acceptances?

[narrow hinge]

don’t forget to do poll here

[marsh solstice]

priority waitlist is NOT binding

[raw crystal]

That's not priority anymore lmao

[iron smelt]

Zamn

[steel cloak]

i wonder if the priority waitlist is a way for them to rank their waitlist, since the normal one is unordered

[marsh solstice]

it's just the name

[quasi quarry]

Yh dk why they named it that💀

[final nexus]

do u think its a mistake or they genuinely waited a whole week just to waitlist everyone

[brisk veldt]

wait so if i have an update is it a waitlist?

[marsh solstice]

probably ranked by college

[raw crystal]

Yeah they just call it "priority" but it's just a normal waitlist

[sharp phoenix]

Yes

[upbeat eagle]

Likely

[undone ether]

did they even accept enough people first round though to have a full class it felt pretty limited the amount of people that heard back

[cerulean arch]

They should stop hiding it and just say no. Its ike 40 out of 4700 get in, this is just wasteful

[pliant pawn]

Na CMU loves trolling

[raw crystal]

Naming tactics to make you feel special 😭

[arctic sparrow]

I mean it's still a waitlist right?

[sweet horizon]

if you guys are worried about accidentally opting into a binding waitlist, you can email to check but if your letter specifically says so its not binding

[quasi quarry]

Fr😭

[marsh solstice]

because if a bunch of people in the art school declines, that doesnt mean CMU will take more SCS students

[sweet horizon]

they had two rounds of ed lol and most schools accept a lot from ed

[marsh solstice]

they need waitlists to deal with their yield

[steel cloak]

yeah but. wondering why they put everyone prio

[marsh solstice]

name

[simple hill]

A waitlist from SCS CMU is pretty good isn't it

[marsh solstice]

of waitlist is priority

[lofty stirrup]

they filled up ED I think I met a lot of Ed people after I got in

[light stone]

Normally when would they get you out of waitlist? lots of school having confirmation deadline of May 1st, if you miss that deadline, and did not get out of waitlist, what happens?

[quasi quarry]

Yeah I think it's impossible to get off waitlist for SCS

[flat sluice]

cmu ed is same acceptance rate as rd so it doesnt really help that much

[steel cloak]

so no such thing as normal waitlist?

[marsh solstice]

you commit to another school
