[thorn cloud]

I applied day of the deadline

at like 11pm

[random lintel]

same I wasn’t going to bc ea acceptance rate is so low but then I saw it was free to apply

[tribal timber]

I loved my Uchicago essays and they were my fav ones I wrote

😔😔

Alas fate said no

[thin sluice]

i havent cringed reading it after submitting

[main pasture]

same omg

im praying

[tribal timber]

Ur getting in 😈😈

[gloomy ferry]

couldn't you have waited one day to withdraw

[tribal timber]

By ed agreement I’m supposed to withdraw asap

I wasn’t waiting on financial aid either

[gloomy ferry]

yeah but you wait till fin aid right

[thin sluice]

where did u get in OMG

[gloomy ferry]

oh

rip

[tribal timber]

Yeah 😭

[gloomy ferry]

penn clearly

[tribal timber]

I just withdrew so I wouldn’t get in trouble with Ben Franklin or smth

[thin sluice]

omg congratsss!!!

[tribal timber]

Tyyy

[gloomy ferry]

are penn and uchi quite similar in culture

[tribal timber]

I’m still kinda sad all the work I went into Uchicago just gone

[thin sluice]

penn is amazing

[thin sluice]

NOOO

[gloomy ferry]

bcuz i saw somebody else had penn and uchi as no. 1 and no. 2 on their list

[tribal timber]

Honestly yeah I think maybe

[molten adder]

what time is uchi

[tribal timber]

penn is way more city immersive

[craggy nimbus]

uchi is more similar to yale and brown

[tribal timber]

Yeah

[thin sluice]

isnt penn so much more chill

[thin sluice]

HOW

i feel like

[tribal timber]

I’d say uchi like Yale with penn’s culture and competitiveness

[thin sluice]

uchicago is like MIT

[tribal timber]

Nah

[rich sapphire]

brown and uchi r polar opposites imo

[gloomy ferry]

4 pm ct

[tribal timber]

MIT and penn r like in the heart of the city

[thin sluice]

^^^

[tribal timber]

Like I can walk 2 steps off campus and get food

Or take a short tram to Chinatown

[thin sluice]

MIT UChicago both stress culture and proud of their nerds and grade deflation

[gloomy ferry]

how do you tell the culture of a school

[tribal timber]

Chicago is a lot more isolated

[craggy nimbus]

eh maybe columbia is more similar

[thin sluice]

https://unigo.com

[tribal timber]

Talk to current students and tour

[gloomy ferry]

uchi is very intellectual and quirky and rigorous and grade deflation

from what i've seen

[little schooner]

Pretty confident that it's way less competitive in a country like Italy compared to region like say, Hong Kong

[tribal timber]

Penn prolly has more parties and nightlife

[valid fable]

in what ways

[thin sluice]

yeah and uchicago 💀

[little schooner]

From the data shown here

[glossy spoke]

but they were my first and second choices lol

[tribal timber]

Brown is relaxed and laid back and open curriculum

[thin sluice]

brown has open curriculum, chicago has the core

[glossy spoke]

the appealed to different parts of me

[gloomy ferry]

@rich sapphire hows social scene at uchi

[tribal timber]

Uchicago is like lowkey hard

[craggy nimbus]

same lmao thats why i said it

[rich sapphire]

grading scale, class rigor choice, intensity etc

[thin sluice]

brown chill, grade inflating, uchic opposite

[craggy nimbus]

brown is like a more chill less hard version of uchicago

[gloomy ferry]

no

[little schooner]

No

[tribal timber]

Uchicago is like 40 minutes away from Chicago center city

[slow stump]

wait where'd you get this data, is this for this year

[rich sapphire]

not a ton of ppl party but the ones who do party A LOT

[bold cairn]

Its like 20 lol

[craggy nimbus]

brown emphasizes intellectual discussion and creativity too

[glossy spoke]

unforch i have no chill

[rich sapphire]

ppl love study sessions lol

[upper tendon]

i think theyll just send the ominous status update email

[tribal timber]

ITS ONLY TWENTY?

[gloomy ferry]

do you like party lol

[bold cairn]

Can confirm

[tribal timber]

bruhhh why’d it take us 40 minutes then

[valid fable]

yeah I know I was thinking more about the people

[gloomy ferry]

oh i got a congratulatory email from santa clara aw

[tribal timber]

Maybe traffic

[unique dirge]

isnt this the place where fun goes to die tho

[bold cairn]

Take the metra lmao

[upper tendon]

its 40 by the metra right

[rich sapphire]

i don’t rlly but i think @bold cairn does

[thin sluice]

brown laid back, uchicago stress intensive

[craggy nimbus]

the metra takes 20 mins

[upper tendon]

oh

[bold cairn]

Did I hear parties

[frigid flare]

google maps said 30

[bold cairn]

Shiiiiit

[rich sapphire]

LOL

[bold cairn]

I love parties

[bold cairn]

Inviting 50 heads?

[rich sapphire]

[gloomy ferry]

💀 💀 💀

[tribal timber]

It might have been nu actually

[gloomy ferry]

i love parties bro im so excited for new years

[lean kestrel]

i’m a little scared for course rigor tbh 💀 idk how it’ll compare to a rural high school

[bold cairn]

Still seems long. Usually not that bad if you get on LSD but traffic may have been bad

[tribal timber]

That was 40 minutes aaay

[gloomy ferry]

bought a slay ass purple dress

[frigid flare]

[thin sluice]

i wanna party ngl

[tribal timber]

[thin sluice]

i am a huge extrovert

[gloomy ferry]

maybe i wanna get into nu just because purple looks great on me

[tribal timber]

We visited like back to back

[gloomy ferry]

but so does maroon so oh well

[tribal timber]

I hated nu ngl

[rich sapphire]

i have a sparkly mini skirt that i still havent found an occasion for

[tribal timber]

The whole school feels ai generated

[rich sapphire]

[upper tendon]

[tribal timber]

The music school is literally ai generated

Irl

It’s like bloxburg

[gloomy ferry]

💀

[upper tendon]

[rich sapphire]

RIGHT

[upper tendon]

havent been in like 5 years but still

[tribal timber]

IT WAS SO BLOXBURG COREEE

[gloomy ferry]

nu used to be my dream school until i discovered uchi

[tribal timber]

it was pretty but lonely and felt haunted

It was like cold lonely and lifeless when I went

Same with Yale

[frigid flare]

literally same though i think i just love chicago

[upper tendon]

ok im convinced we're a dyad in the Force

[craggy nimbus]

why does swarthmore feel like uchicago as a liberal arts school

[thin sluice]

chicago bound

[glossy spoke]

[thin sluice]

[gloomy ferry]

uchi doesnt even have my major but i love it sm

[glossy spoke]

[bold cairn]

Woodlawn is mid af

[reef grove]

north is good

[bold cairn]

Tbh

[reef grove]

fr?

[tribal timber]

The top bed was like a foot from the ceiling so if you tried to rise outta bed in the morning you’d decapitate urslef

[reef grove]

it looked so pretty from the outside

[tribal timber]

The bottom bed was also super close to the bottom of the top bunk

Which also means

If u rise and shine

You’d decapitated urself

[bold cairn]

I lived in Woodlawn for 2 years lmao

[reef grove]

max pavelsky aka maximum security is incredibly divisive

[bold cairn]

It's nice to have a dining hall close and AC but walls are so thin

Can hear everything that your neighbors are doing

[reef grove]

the dining hall was kinda mid tjouhh

ohh

[tribal timber]

Windowless jail cell

Hey guys i want to wish you good luck. Discord is full of copypasted application messages, that people don't even read and just forward to other servers. I don't like that. I like to write what i deeply wish and what comes from my heart. Our friendships, from the most deep ones to the most virtual ones are very important and will never be represented by a simple message copied from elsewhere. This being said I would like to thank all of you. You are the best university of illinois chicago thread i've ever messaged in
