gonna ED anyways cause im clinically insane
😭😭
does the nice letter mean you’re actually a competitive applicant or just enough to be semi seriously considered?
It means u are a competitive applicant
epc and stars had VERY limited space
just like every fly in
oh hmm interesting thanks
stars only had 25 spots, so u can imagine how low the AR was
ed on top
LMFAO
what
nothing i just find it so strange that stars was prob more competitive than EPC😭
I don’t think so???
For the Columbia list supplemental, do we just list things or do we explain why we picked them?
yall columbia is falling apart
y
the flooding
oh
did u not see lol
yah i saw i didnt think abt it
is ithaca safe
not flooded lol
yeah
we r on a huge hill
like when u drive to downtown, u literally have to pop ur ears
cuz the elevation change
I thought it was FLOODED
it was for like a day and it was chill

CJ is currently living a lie
yeah if you’re an elitist pos who thinks they simply must live in manhattan
calling someone elitist just because they want to live in manhattan is just awkward.
you cannot be serious
i was joking pls
nearly everyone who moves to NYC wants to live in manhattan 😭😭😭idk yall
OK GOOD because i was so confused
cuz like arent you EDing?!!?
yes?? i just don’t expect to live in manhattan when o grad
i simply must live in manhattan (if i had to commute an hour to school every day i’d cry)
duh if you are going to school in NORTHERN MANHATTAN 😭 i feel like i'm going crazy.

pfft write a book
Most passion projects (like social media accounts or blogs) require you to show commitment over time. However, one thing you can do in the few months before applying to college is publish a book online. Write one chapter that shows your voice as a writer and have GPT-4 process, and learn to emulate your voice. Then use it to write the rest, guid...

Lmao hf
Our hosts locked us out
I went a few days ago wasnt bad
times square isnt all that interesting
that’s such a bad idea
do you have anyone who like knows their way around there
i’d be down to supervise y’all
you act like that isn’t my full time job at this point with my friends
if they aren’t drunk they’re high or almost getting themselves killed at night

U worry too much they'll be fine 🥱
yea i worry too much i should let them in FUCKING NORTH WOODS AT 1AM BY THEMSELVES
We went biking on da streets drunk and we came back in one piece
that’s different
you’re a bunch of guys riding bikes lmao
in a generally well lit area
on the street
We stopped at great lawn for like 30 min and talked to Eduardo from Cuba actually
Yeah see they'll be fine
safest NYC interaction
Why don't u just bring them to Butler lawns n chill and get some halal
Orr host them in ur lounge
my lounge filled up
the second i went down
to jjs
and then i got insulted
they asked if i was fucking sleeping in the lounge
because they saw my blanket
not like there isn’t a ton of work on the whiteboard

damn bro
thanks Barack but it’s literally the whole day 😭😭😭😭😭😭
np

after 2:30pm
bro woke up at 9 again
who
i tried to see if i could catch u guys but i couldnt
thank you sm for swiping me in tho calypso
no problem
and no worries
are you headed back?
aw :(
aw
safe travels
nice meeting u
if you’re on campus next year lmk! we should all grab lunch sometime
i didnt think itd be so strict to be honest
Also
i have the epc acceptance rate
if anyone was wondering
kinda curious what it is
yeah campus security in general is strict
around residential areas
dorm security is super tight
same for dining halls, and libraries
9%
yes
im not going to speculate
like similar to peep i guess
idk apparently for the past fly ins ive been to its rlly good ed chances @devout mirage
wdym
my one friend did a flyin -> ed and got in
is it ok if u dont?
my other did qb and didn’t match but got in rd
OH no thats the acceptance rate to the fly in itself
i just shotgunned and got lucky
OH
yeah
like for the ones i did at washu, it was smth like 80 percent ed/rd acceptance rate but they probably prefer ed
yup
if i apply rd is that ok
they didnt say for us
they said that if we were accepted they were really interested in us
id assume fly in -> ed would be some sort of acceptance w/ scholar status
most likely
im not a scholar here but clock is
scholars are like the top ~10% of the class they accept
💀 damn
they aren’t allowed to say that
its an intern
prob not
but im not snitching
yo
are u gonna
if you ed make sure you still have backups
they were breaking all kinda of the "code"
at epc in general
😭
they gave us advice which they arent supposed to do
ooh like what
wdym dont they normally for fly ins?
theyre not supposed to
like essay tips that kind of thing
for columbia its really strict
Nobody really cares dw
I was gonna give my friend 20 bucks to troll y'all and the tour groups
i mean it gives you an advantage so take the advantage and run with it
holy shit
😭
yeah i mean if you’re native and cracked…
so theyre really trying to win me over
Shi next time u come I'll show u what Columbia is actually like 🥱
yeah one of them was worried about yale taking me
what do u mean
shut up
like theyre not supposed to say stuff
its just nuts though
When did he come
when you were at barnard
dang
wait are u ever worried abt that??
i got kicked out pretty much
i took him to jjs
like not having a big native community?
theyre all in CC
no college has a big native community
O yeah I was busy sry
unless it’s near a reserve i assume
I'll bring u to ktown or smth next time idk
but even then
dartmouth and stanford do
i mean
bro take me to ktown
hello kings college
id imagine dartmouth does yeah
dartmouth is big on diversity
im def not applying ed here but i might rd
bigger than columbia
if i can bother to do the supps
wait so are u applying ed??
Maybe when I'm done with midterms and internship
IDK i might
columbia (and ivies in general besides maybe cornell) dont have great cs engineering stuff
Dartmouth used to be a native American reeducation camp so yeah
columbia cs is pretty damn good
omg
i was surprised they wanted me so bad 💀
we’re frontiering a lot of AI/ML stuff
im just shooting higher though
ngl ur app process will probs go rlly well
Look at my pictures LMAO every one of them kinda bad 🔥
cmu with that -4% admit rate for scs 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
btw i dont think ill do the barnard fly in 
virtually any cs place in the top 20 for cs will give you the same opportunities
WHY
its literally 6 hours on a sunday afternoon+night virtual 😭
if it’s virtual just put it on in the background lmao
it’s fine
literally just attend
it’s only 6h
true but also columbia prompts
U said u had pics with hot men but I don't see any btw
idk i wanna be present for fly ins cause ik they give rlly important info too
????? what
too late for columbia ed deadline
where
Waiting for ur insta post...
yoo 
YO wait mutual me
ive met you irl so like
let me get into his lab first 😭
SHHHHH
i don’t want to doxx the lab i’m in now
but i’m working with a prominent one
Nerdddd
literally the guy i’ve ranted to u about
literally him
oh yeah apparebtly columbias considering tribal affiliation in admissions
thos year
absolutely
the gates close around columbia at midnight except the main guarded ones
we have public safety in the lobby of every dorm
and every library
No pics
it’s super strict on id access
he has to send me them
Lowk nyc is safe if ur not dumb
Actually we've been dumb and we're fine
So
yeah just don’t go into north woods at night
We did
literally don’t go into any wooded area at night
ur literally stupid
that’s drug dealer row and people getting fucked and murdered during the day and night
may as well fill out rd
yes
💀
No I have fun
stupid
Besides my friend told me
my stats have well improved since epc
and i can grind out essays pretty quickly
💀
Ur in ur room or lounge all day shut up 🥱
LMAO not true
guest did u ed
im only in my room rn because i’m tired
Yeah
only reason for CMU ed then is gigantic programs in cs
what does scholar mean
Useless
LMAO multiple places off campus
opera, multiple parks, broadway
several times to different places in harlem
the one mexican bar
LES
chelsea
Harlem 💀
literally
i’ve been to LES chelsea AND midtown
in the past like 2 weeks
so shush
ik an issue with one of my top choices is that the city sleeps EARLY
and nyc is not that
nyc never sleeps
ppl said that u wont make friends from class
that’s such a lie
Maybe not close close friends
i randomly met a girl in my physics rec who was coincidentally in my math class and now we get dinner together and do pset
that’s not true either
Closest is dorm bc that's easiest
i met max thru physics
yes
LMAO
i see him all the time in the dorm too tho
so i guess that’s part of it
Like he would invite you to his house or like live w u as roomates close
when i come back from math on tuesdays he leaves for ballet
he might do the former
but he’s not from here
But this isn't true I have friends @ all my classes n we text often+ get dinner once a week or every so often
- I still talk to my orientation friends and we get lunch or dinner every week too
oh yeah same
i mean my main group is my orientation group
nsop friends typically stick
U have no idea
yes i do
bro my host said there were "so many bad girls that were easy to bag"
Hookups are easy yeau
they were wildin
they were even smoking blunts
No
that’s normal behavior
@native hatch is astrophys in cc or engineering
Yeah we chill like that
cc
cc
hows the core there then
U actually dont know anything just u wait
bad
Finding wifey is hard tho
the girl i was talking to didnt start physics 2 until jr year
Shoulda went to byu
umm it’s a bit much on top of all of my math and physics shit but it’s a grade booster
tbh
💀
that’s crazy
im taking physics 1 and 2 this yr
It's not bad
Uwriting is dumb but lit and music hum r fun
Lots of time to talk in small groups
Again
Find wifey
i heard lit hum is hell on earth
Nah
It's easy
ok 5 essays
I haven't done a single reading
they said on the test you have to know a page from one the 27 books randomly
oh yep
that’s our midterm
😂
passage recognition
midterm wont kill ur grade tho
Yeah just guess
Use context clues
at least barnard has no core
N finals
i mean if it mentions a random greek guy
if you ed barnard ill ed columbia
you can infer the book
are the vibes at columbia stressed out or nah
no
no 💀
yes
my hosts were crying
Depends on the type of person u are and who ur around
the vibes are kinda weird. most people are super nice and usually people aren’t openly stressed out
My group did club apps after shots 30 min before they were due for fun
yes lots of ppl cried over the chem midterm
most people are fun
CHEM LMAO
do u talk to barnard students or nah
they do
My friend got a 12/25
badnard students r everywhere
wait u r serious or what
yes serious
my host invited 7 kids to our room to study
Like there's def stress culture/ppl that r stressed but all the ppl I hang out with r chill
Like the most cracked ppl r the ones that chill and party the most
its stressful but like fun stressful
yes
bro im ngl i filled out the fly in app in ~30 mins and dont know anything beside surface level stuff abt the school
This girl on my floor goes out every night even on weekdays and she got most selective finance club
so why would i ed
4 ppl/300 get in
aghhhhhhh to go or to skip physics rec…
💀 studying in the room is so mid
nicee
Butler is nice bc they have good matcha latte
you can skip 2 before he starts to take points away
FOR LIKE $7.50
Yeah
GO TO URIS IF YOU WANT COFFEE
