I applied to usc for the cali dream n somehow got in

[twilit hinge]

I applied usc secretly

[junior scroll]

[twilit hinge]

[slate oxide]

he was gonna apply to stanford but didn't bc of my mom's sentiment to going so far away

[twilit hinge]

I withdrew to give u a spot dots

[junior scroll]

[twilit hinge]

Wait is my mom’s cousin’s daughter my cousin

Cause she got a full ride to upenn for this year too

[junior scroll]

not by blood but theoretically(?)

[twilit hinge]

Ig

I dont really know her my mom told me

[slate oxide]

hm maybe

[junior scroll]

atp all my “family friends” i just call cousins

[twilit hinge]

My relatives are cracked and im just stuck here :/

[slate oxide]

[twilit hinge]

Oh

[slate oxide]

so basically yes a cousin

[twilit hinge]

Yea she got full ride cause her family income is super low

But she ed either way

[junior scroll]

pog

[twilit hinge]

Then realized mit wanted her the next day 💀

[slate oxide]

penn legacy is child or grandchild of alumni

[slate oxide]

DAMNNNN

she got into upenn ED and mit EA??

[twilit hinge]

I think she’s first gen

Yea first gen

Yes

She chose upenn cause wharton obv and full ride

[slate oxide]

bro if MIT was her top that kinda sucks

[slate oxide]

technically she had to

[twilit hinge]

She did want mit

Yea she also has to

Like full ride and u say cant afford makes no sense 💀

[slate oxide]

technically you can be released from your ED agreement if you can't afford tuition but u can't prove that with a full-ride 💀

[twilit hinge]

Yea

[slate oxide]

yep LMAO

[junior scroll]

does upenn not look ar fafsa for aid ?

[slate oxide]

not this year

[junior scroll]

op

[slate oxide]

they gave me my aid without fafsa

and it won't change after i get fafsa

[junior scroll]

dang wish usc would do that

[twilit hinge]

Merit aid?

[junior scroll]

i just wanna know if i could afford to go

[slate oxide]

no upenn is all need-based

[twilit hinge]

U should get an interview

If usc puts u in the qualifying round

This week

[twilit hinge]

Ooh ok

[junior scroll]

[slate oxide]

i believe in u

[junior scroll]

im pretty sure if u get an interview ur guaranteed half tuition already

bc they only interview for trustee and presidential

[twilit hinge]

I thought they only chose 200/800

[junior scroll]

tytyty

[junior scroll]

ppl w no interview either get quarter 10k or none

[twilit hinge]

Thats nice

[slate oxide]

ofc

gotta support my fellow viets

[junior scroll]

[twilit hinge]

[rich gulch]

Damn my schools scatterplot for the ivies don't show up. I don't any of us have gotten accepted ever

Now I'm losing hope

Anyway imma transfer lmao

[slate oxide]

oof that sucks

[slate oxide]

i believe in u

[runic fossil]

does northeastern accept for the london campus in ea?

[twilit hinge]

yes

that would be london scholars

i think u need to have a major

that aligns with the london program

[slate oxide]

my school has acceptances to every ivy except for columbia in the past five years

[twilit hinge]

otherwise it may not work out, but they'll prob let u know if u still want to do london

[twilit hinge]

same except mit

which isnt ivy

but we only had one in history

get in

[slate oxide]

one guy from class of 2023 got into mit

[twilit hinge]

we had a kid get 7/8 ivieis

[slate oxide]

and we have three stanford acceptances

[twilit hinge]

so ig that counts

[slate oxide]

DAMNNN

what was the ivy that didn't take him 💀

[twilit hinge]

he ended up going to printon

[twilit hinge]

cornell

💀

[slate oxide]

HELPPPPP

cornell's location sucks anyways

[twilit hinge]

nahhh

its nowhere but still a chill city

[junior scroll]

ithaca is awful

[slate oxide]

my school had 4 cornell ED applicants this cycle and they were all deferred

[twilit hinge]

and has a cat cafe

[slate oxide]

this

[twilit hinge]

i was gonna ed cornell actually

but location wise and me stats I was like maybe not risk it

[twilit hinge]

this is our stanford

u might be wonderin what that kid did

💀

[slate oxide]

what'd they do 🤨

[twilit hinge]

became top 10 college baseball kids in country

[slate oxide]

stop i keep saying he impulsively LMAOO

[slate oxide]

DAMNN

were they a sport commit?

[twilit hinge]

yea

thats why

[slate oxide]

makes sense

[twilit hinge]

lmaoooo

its so funny tho

future kids that dont know who that is gonna be so confused

[tired meteor]

Do i need to update srar with mid year

[trim edge]

i dniot think nrotheastern considers senior grades

plus i think our srars are locked

[twilit hinge]

No need to since it said they dont consider except first semester for regular

[normal pawn]

Any chance of it coming today?

[prime gale]

0%

Itll be wednesday

Or later

[dusky vault]

I wish there was a way to send them my recent grades before decision 😭😭

[swift torrent]

I mean you can but it won’t make a difference this late

[rich gulch]

Bro what's up with northeastern not giving a solid date 😭

[simple lantern]

i'm about to withdraw my application

[tired meteor]

i mean they did give us a solid date (feb 15) its just too far away so we keep speculating about sometime before that

[swift torrent]

why?

[simple lantern]

took too long and i already have colleges saying they want me

northeastern is NOT special

[tired meteor]

bruh no reason to withdraw lol

i mean you alr paid app fee

[simple lantern]

unfortuantely

theyre just gonna yield protect me anyway

[light bone]

ife neu defers me im literally gonna commit crimes against humanity

[dusky vault]

God I just wanna get AN ANSWER

if I get fucking rejected I’m gonna cry

[light bone]

i will commit nefarious acts

[dusky vault]

Deferred is fine

[simple lantern]

if they do it to me im just gonna leave them alone

they arent that specail to me

[light bone]

same tho

[coral python]

what time wednesday

[noble stag]

When does ea come out guys?

[swift torrent]

nobody knows for sure

they said Feb 15 I think

[meager isle]

prob due to

tons of applications

[tired meteor]

you're getting in emory anyway trust

imagine you get your ed2 before an ea tho lmfao

[light bone]

i’m gonna get emory before uva ea 💀💀💀💀

[tired meteor]

damn

when's deadline to commit emory

[light bone]

may 1st?

idk the ed2 deadline

[tired meteor]

no yeah i meant ed2

[light bone]

idk

prolly march

[tired meteor]

Before or after rd decisions?

[light bone]

i got no idea

ill withdraw tho

[tired meteor]

ah

[blazing scaffold]

It came out on Monday last year

There is a chance it drops today

[prime gale]

I doubt it but hopefully

[blazing scaffold]

It’s gonna come out before February

So either today tomorrow or Wednesday

But historically it’s been on the 28th or around there

[swift torrent]

I wouldn’t get my hopes up idk

[noble stag]

You sure?

[last island]

hello. does anyone’s applicant portal say “major change- global scholars?” bc it showed up this morning and it says “the major change process will reopen on October 10…” so im confused

[solar prism]

no

where is it

[last island]

under build your nu journey and next to change my application category

i applied ea btw idk if you did too

[vale seal]

I ALSO GOT THAT

Does that mean we got into global scholars?

[last island]

omg maybe idk tho

i just thought it was weird

did you rank it as one of the choices to consider u

[vale seal]

yeah i ranked all

i think i put global scholars after boston campus

[last island]

okay yeah idk if everyone that put that as an option has the thing in the portal or if it means something related to our admission decision

[blazing scaffold]

I can’t find it on my portal

Can you send a screenshot

[vale seal]

well the only way to get into that program is if you rank it so

[last island]

idk why I can’t send a photo

I doesn’t let me

[last island]

oh well I mean like maybe ppl that ranked it didn’t get in so they don’t have that thing in their portal

but this is all just speculation

[vale seal]

ohh

yeah if someone who ranked global scholars doesnt have it that might be confirmation

[last island]

did u rank global scholars as an option

[last island]

yes so im asking to see

[blazing scaffold]

Uhhh

I don’t remember lmao

I can check on common app tho I think

[vale seal]

u can see in ur common app pdf for northeastern

[devout schooner]

What’s global scholars

[last island]

like one semester London and one in Oakland for ur first year

And after that u go to Boston

[devout schooner]

Is it related to nu in

[blazing scaffold]

I did it as preference 3

[vale seal]

nu in is where you choose a place in europe for a semester and then go to boston second semester

[vale seal]

interesting

i checked and i said i have no preference

[devout schooner]

Where do you check for that

[blazing scaffold]

What if I’m in Boston campus 😼

[dusky vault]

yeah i think i ranked it but its not there

lemme check if i did tho

[blazing scaffold]

Lowkey I think it’s dropping today trust

[last island]

I hope im so impatient 😭

[devout schooner]

Hopefully

[dusky vault]

wait where did you find this?

[vale seal]

i went to common app and i downloaded the pdf of my northeastern application

its in the college-specific questions

[grave leaf]

Was this there before?

[devout schooner]

i listed that but it's not there on my portal

[grave leaf]

Oh shit

[last island]

no it showed up this morning

[grave leaf]

I listed Boston, NU IN, and London and nothing changed for me

[grave leaf]

This could be something then

[last island]

I did Boston, nu in, global scholars

[grave leaf]

Damn now I'm worried

[devout schooner]

i did open to anything

[prime gale]

Chat does this mean tonights decision night !?!?!??

[grave leaf]

Could decisions drop tonight?

I wouldn't get our hopes up, but this is something

[grave leaf]

I wouldn't worry, maybe you could've just gotten into another campus

[round wyvern]

Maybe

[grave leaf]

I guess we'll find out at 7:00 EST tonight

[devout schooner]

why 7?

[grave leaf]

That's when ED dropped

[last island]

good luck everyone!!!

[grave leaf]

Good luck!

[round wyvern]

Does nu care a lot abt sat

[meager isle]

you could also do NUin at boston i’m pretty sure, but most people say it’s not as fun

[meager isle]

depends on the context

[round wyvern]

wdym

[junior hedge]

its the 15tg

15th

[grave leaf]

That's the latest it can be

So it could drop anytime between tonight and the 15th

[round wyvern]

It’s not a solid deadline yeah

[meager isle]

like do you have very good grades but bad sat or good sat and bad grades

[round wyvern]

3.4 w reason and strong upward trend

1560

[junior hedge]

there wasnt an announcement for tn thi

tho

[meager isle]

then they’d care abt sat

the 1560 will just reinforce it

[round wyvern]

I don’t think they announce necessarily

[grave leaf]

I was just saying that we'll see if it drops tonight at that time

[round wyvern]

hope so

[grave leaf]

And if it doesn't drop then it won't be tonight, sorry for the confusion

[meager isle]

it’ll prob drop sometime this week

unless they’re like really behind

[junior hedge]

all i can say is gang theres no reason to worry

its in college admissions hands

[round wyvern]

If i get in i need to switch my ed to rd

lol

so sooner than later is preferred

[junior hedge]

i see

i aint gonna lie

i wasnt even plannin on applying for college LOL

[junior scroll]

what made you change your mind?

[junior hedge]

i wanted the college experience, live with no regrets

I dont wanna go 5-10 years down the line regretting on not going to college

and i fs wont apply to college as a 27 year old

[junior scroll]

real

[noble stag]

Wait so northeastern ea is coming out today?? I’m so confused

[rough holly]

no its by the 15th of feb

so u just gotta wait until then

[noble stag]

But like historically does it always release on the 15th of feb orrr

[grave leaf]

Everything is speculation

Historically it comes out around this time, but we won't know until it comes out, which will be by the 15th by latest

[rough holly]

are u actually doing portal astrology rn

[grave leaf]

No

[rough holly]

guys just wait its not that bad😭

[grave leaf]

I was just saying that the portal was updated today for some and not others, which makes it look like they're going to drop soon

[languid sluice]

It has historically never released then lmao

[junior scroll]

usually before feb

[languid sluice]

On average it releases between the 26th and the 29th

But this year is also the most applications they've ever had I think

So if it goes into early Feb I won't be shocked

That's why they changed the date from by Feb 1st to by Feb 15

[meager isle]

snipe like College Confidential

idk

maybe someone will leak email again

[twilit hinge]

if someone does then its def coming out that time

if its today that would be unusual

[grave leaf]

Agreed, but I find the global scholars things weird. It makes it look like they have all the decisions made and uploaded to the portals, but they’re just waiting for a specific date and time to release them

That doesn’t mean they’ll release today necessarily, but it could mean we’re getting closer

[twilit hinge]

pretty much

ed had their portals locked a week earlier

[junior hedge]

whats global scholars

[brazen kernel]

wait are they coming out today?

[grave leaf]

No

[twilit hinge]

study at london and oakland

basically one semester at each

[junior hedge]

oh

[junior hedge]

15th prob

[twilit hinge]

I doubt it

but its always a possiblity

if you guys want stats for this fall 2024

https://news.northeastern.edu/newspost/2024/01/29/undergraduate-applications-fall-2024/?utm_source=fbpagenortheastern+university&utm_medium=organic_social&utm_campaign=northeastern+university&linkId=100000238097659&fbclid=IwAR0406vx9wWmBIFTEIHSiGJjLC77Fav6rq1Yveft5zPHz5RW7IVqRADj3K4

wait they're taking less boston kids wut

[grave leaf]

Damn it

[twilit hinge]

ig less crowdness tho

so thats noice

[grave leaf]

Did my math wrong

[junior hedge]

rough

[blazing scaffold]

If they sent this out

It’s coming out today trust

[white bison]

oh no 😭

[mellow crystal]

when

[devout schooner]

for ed this year they pushed the 'by' date back but decisions still came back at around the same time i believe

maybe a few days later, take that for what you will

[grave leaf]

Good point, Kazuma Kiryu

[hollow surge]

omg i havent been in this chat since ED decisions

helpp are yall predicting EA now LMAO

theyre gon fool us like they did to ED

[blazing sandal]

I don’t get it though northeastern has like a 20k undergrad population so that means each class is around 5k. Why are they taking only 2600 this year

[grave leaf]

They hate the class of 2024

[devout schooner]

over enrolled years ago

[blazing sandal]

Rip

[hollow surge]

thats why the benfit from NUin

[devout schooner]

rip

[hollow surge]

isssoke guys u got this good luck to EA

[devout schooner]

so acceptance rate this year will be 3.8 percent including study abroad programs

[hollow surge]

damn thats crazy

does anyone know the ED acceptance rate?

[grave leaf]

Damn it my math was right

[runic fossil]

do they defer or reject more applicants ea

[hollow surge]

they prolly reject cuz they alraedy can compare u to regular

[grave leaf]

Probably reject

[coral inlet]

^

[hollow surge]

since EA decisions come out aftr they get regular

also they took alot of ED kids i feel like

[blazing sandal]

What’s nuin

[devout schooner]

3 years ago they deferred 60 percent

[hollow surge]

first semester abroad

then back to boston

that way they can have more dorm space avalile and stuff

[devout schooner]

so deferral rate is prob substantially lower now

[hollow surge]

prolly

[devout schooner]

rip

[runic fossil]

how much does it help if a relative attended northeastern 💀

[grave leaf]

If it’s a parent itll help a bit

[twilit hinge]

idk if they consider legacy

[runic fossil]

ah nah just 2 cousins

[jagged mortar]

They also benefit bc last I checked U.S. news doesn’t count it in their acceptance rate

It’s considered a spring start

[devout schooner]

how many go to nuin?

[noble stag]

Why are admissions numbers changing sooo much over the last 5 years only did our population seriously grow 50% over 5 years whaaat 😂😂

[jagged mortar]

Shotgunning

[twilit hinge]

so far for this year 480 from ed

^^

[devout schooner]

how many accepted ed overall

[twilit hinge]

uhhh theres no exact number

but based on the counselor email

near 2k?

[devout schooner]

1470 apparently

[junior scroll]

3.8% aint no way

[noble stag]

3.8% FOR NORTHEASTERN WAAAT??

[twilit hinge]

if u just ocunt boston around 1470

[devout schooner]

does that seriously mean there are only 1000 spots left for boston

[twilit hinge]

nah even tho they say the class is 2600

[devout schooner]

maybe a little higher for nuin

[twilit hinge]

i think its higher

cause some people dont attend

so around 1500 I think is more reasonable for spots left imo

[noble stag]

they have to yield protect so they usually admit more than 2600

[twilit hinge]

yea

[jagged mortar]

That’s not the same as yield protecting

Every school including Harvard admits more than they’ll enroll

[noble stag]

Yeaa I know

For sure

[devout schooner]

yield rate last year was like 60 percent

[noble stag]

Even harvards yield rate isn’t 100% so it’s normal to over admit like over booking a flight

[devout schooner]

Applicants 96,327 91,086 75,244 64,459 62,263 62,272
Admits ~5,389 6,179 13,829 13,199 11,240 12,042
Admit rate 5.6% 6.7% 18% 20% 18% 19%
Enrolled ~2,900 2,620 4,504 3,128 2,996 2,746

[twilit hinge]

thats kinda the problem neu ran into

cause more kids enrolled

then they expected

i think back in 2021

[noble stag]

My school counselers are saying that northeastern is a safety and that umass is a reach

[twilit hinge]

its pretty much a safety net for them

[noble stag]

I’m confused are they fr?

[devout schooner]

yea

[twilit hinge]

uhhh if they said this many years ago

ig

[noble stag]

no like they said this yesterday-

[twilit hinge]

they're prob not updated

[noble stag]

😂😂😂

[twilit hinge]

[noble stag]

I hope it releases today

[devout schooner]

they seriously care about their yield rate it seems like

[noble stag]

So anxious after constant deferrals like what more do they want from us

[devout schooner]

25 percent to 50 percent

[twilit hinge]

my biggest thing to say here

is best of luck, like truly

hopefully someone here will get in the location they want

[devout schooner]

ed might be the only path forward at this point for neu

[twilit hinge]

sort of like tulane lol

[noble stag]

what if my ao ordered Wendys no pickles and they added pickles and he’s in a shitty mood will that effect my chances?

[devout schooner]

who orders no pickles

[junior echo]

For what

[noble stag]

Fr tho

[junior echo]

Major

[noble stag]

Industrial engineering 👀

[junior echo]

Yeah idk what they on

[twilit hinge]

their source prob like when they were in college

[noble stag]

Is industrial eng basically business at least that’s what I heard 😂

[devout schooner]

they admit by major?

[noble stag]

At neu I don’t think so

[twilit hinge]

no

its so easy to change majors in the admit portal

except couple majors

[junior echo]

What majors

[twilit hinge]

i think like the portfolio ones

u know marketing

[grave leaf]

Is comp sci + media considered a portfolio major?

[junior echo]

I'm currently stuck between neu and Umass cs

[twilit hinge]

I dont believe so

are u applying under khoury

or the media college

[grave leaf]

Both have a really good CS program, wait until you hear back from both

[twilit hinge]

it usually tells u too

[grave leaf]

Khory

[twilit hinge]

yea u dont got a portfolio then

[grave leaf]

It gave me the option to give a portfolio, but it was optional

[junior hedge]

am i the only one that applied to finance here LOL

[twilit hinge]

both are good, umass amherst i think ur talking about is a bit stronger

but I perfer neu just cause location

[grave leaf]

Really?

[twilit hinge]

its not a significant difference tbh

[grave leaf]

I think the UMass program is going under some changes rn

That’s what my friend who goes there said at least

[devout schooner]

umass was t20 last year

[twilit hinge]

I usually hate it when they do that

[grave leaf]

Like revamping some classes, so it could be getting even better

[grave leaf]

Deadass?

[twilit hinge]

cause they experiment

[twilit hinge]

nah I think t30

[grave leaf]

I’d love to get state rate there then

I applied RD there instate

[junior hedge]

is northeastern a t50?

or?

[twilit hinge]

its not

but it should be

[languid sluice]

It's like

53

[twilit hinge]

in the past it was but like colleges dropped in ranking

yea

[junior echo]

I've heard this before

What does mean

[twilit hinge]

prob changing course assingments, teaching style projects etc

[grave leaf]

^

[twilit hinge]

and updating electives to modern advancements

[junior echo]

But I don't think that's the reason the ranking dropped for it

[twilit hinge]

honestly rankings are so subjective

its cause usnews have their own formula

which may differ from another student perspective

its a good cs program overall, would not reject anyone from wanting to go there

[junior echo]

I already am in both

[devout schooner]

a lot of cs programs were bumped down from last year

[twilit hinge]

how u get in both

already

[junior echo]

Like whose

[devout schooner]

ea/ ed prob

[devout schooner]

neu and umass

[junior echo]

Northeastern shipped me so it's not binding

[twilit hinge]

nooo the shipped treatment

[junior echo]

Aside from those 2

[twilit hinge]

ig thats a safety blanket at least

[devout schooner]

idk

[twilit hinge]

ultimately I would go down to cost ig

just go to the one thats cheaper for u

[devout schooner]

are u instate?

[junior echo]

Yes

[twilit hinge]

oh then prob umass

[devout schooner]

that's like 80k cheaper then

[twilit hinge]

its gotta be cheaper

yea

[junior scroll]

what is shipped

[devout schooner]

nu in prob

[junior echo]

It's when they want your tuition but don't have enough space on campus

[devout schooner]

also to keep their admit rate down

[junior echo]

I mean every school does it

Northeastern just does it more aggressively

[devout schooner]

guys if they want yield rate to be around 50 percent, does that mean around 5k offers for boston

[graceful helm]

Anyone apply to cssh

[devout schooner]

when did you hear back?

[junior echo]

Northeastern mid December Umass like a week ago

[grave leaf]

So does that that mean if you want to go to NEU

[junior echo]

What

[grave leaf]

Like what’s the difference between shipped and being accepted

[devout schooner]

he'll go to boston after one semester

[grave leaf]

Ohhh

[twilit hinge]

Most people want boston

Being shipped of to other locations make like

Connections hard

[grave leaf]

Oh I misunderstood lmao

[twilit hinge]

A lot of people make friends their first semester and get use to there easier than nuin students transitioning back

But ig u can make a close community too since nuin is quite small amount

[grave leaf]

I thought being shipped was different than NU In

[twilit hinge]

Nah nuin is also another location

[charred mulch]

nuin, global scholars, oakland, etc. are all being shipped

[devout schooner]

is nu in the same as global scholars?

[charred mulch]

nope

[grave leaf]

I get it now, thanks!

[charred mulch]

global scholars sends you to the oakland and london campuses (i think it can be in either order) for the first year
except this year was weird bc some of the global scholars started on the boston campus and then went to london instead of having to go to oakland at all

nuin sends you off to various locations in europe

[twilit hinge]

Like glasgow^

[charred mulch]

ye

[twilit hinge]

Oh btw tuna hows accelerated fundies 2

[charred mulch]

not too bad so far

well, the homeworks are kinda hard but you can manage it

[twilit hinge]

Thats good to hear

[charred mulch]

they teach java in a rlly wack way in the first part of fundies 2 so thats rlly my only complaint

[junior echo]

Do you use intelji

[charred mulch]

i personally do yes

[twilit hinge]

Do they start from classes or somethin

[charred mulch]

the class recommends eclipse but i like intellij better

[glossy coyote]

wait what’s the predictions? wednesday at 7?

[twilit hinge]

Im using eclipse rn in csa

[charred mulch]

nice nice

[twilit hinge]

I heard intellij is nice

[charred mulch]

yeah pretty much

[twilit hinge]

But can take forever to load

[charred mulch]

classes and interfaces and whatnot

[glossy coyote]

intellij is great

[twilit hinge]

Ig they’re working backwards lmao

[glossy coyote]

better then eclipse

[junior echo]

Does neu use it

[charred mulch]

yeah its rlly nice

[charred mulch]

in fundies 2 no they use eclipse (although theres not rlly anything stopping you from using intellij if you want)
in OOD (object oriented design) they use intellij

[twilit hinge]

Should i use intelli or vscode?

[grave leaf]

Is intelli the new google one?

[twilit hinge]

For the classes there

Ig prob java for intelli and other languages with vs

[charred mulch]

up to you theyre both great

i generally lean towards jetbrains IDEs but vscode is great too

btw as a student you can get all the jetbrains IDEs for free

[twilit hinge]

Wait fr

[noble stag]

Do they send an email the day b4 decisions are released orrr

[twilit hinge]

Das amazing

[charred mulch]

yeah you get it for a year and just gotta renew it every year while ur in college

[twilit hinge]

Imma try their ides out then

They even got creative cloud right

Cause I occasionally use ps, substance with blender for 3d stuff

[charred mulch]

i dont use creative cloud but im pretty sure theres a massive student discount for it

[twilit hinge]

Yippeee

Thanks for the info

[charred mulch]

np 👍

[coral inlet]

wednesday more likely

[dusky vault]

Painnnn (I haven’t even checked)

[coral inlet]

[dusky vault]

I think I might buy myself a NEU cake

If I get in I get cake

If I get deferred I get cake

If I get rejected I get to cry in the cake

[devout schooner]

if i get rejected i become cake

[twilit hinge]

😭

[charred mulch]

cake either way so its a W

[charred mulch]

last year it was the 30th (last monday of jan)

this year might be different tho idk

[candid gulch]

I'm guessing its gonna be out on wednesday

[twilit hinge]

either tomorrow or wed

im feeling more wed tho

[junior scroll]

I resonate w wed

[grave leaf]

Im feeling Wednesday

[simple lantern]

bro dont worry

Northeastern sends out so many waivers that

legit half of the apps are instant denials

[round wyvern]

[shut smelt]

[buoyant cypress]

ed came out at 7:00pm est

[hollow surge]

[quaint geyser]

[hollow surge]

[quaint geyser]

FR i thought junior senioritis was bad senior senioritis is sm worse

[hollow surge]

cuz they made me sign a thing thatmy final grades are no lower than a C

but calc is litterally boutta ruin that

-_-

[quaint geyser]

😭

[twilit hinge]

[hollow surge]

wait actually??

[junior scroll]

[gleaming skiff]

Wait so does anyone have any idea when EA is released?

[languid sluice]

Ed had winter break

Ea doesnt

[blazing scaffold]

ea for sure releasing before february

[floral scroll]

🤞

[hollow surge]

[floral scroll]

ooh

[grave leaf]

Where’d you hear that from?

[dusky vault]

its happening (the cake not the decision)

[floral scroll]

don’t taunt me like that

[lunar mortar]

i prefer cake over the decision bc i already know what it's gonna be x.x

[shut smelt]

i bet 2/3 of the chat will get deferred

[floral scroll]

nah i manifested in my notes app im totally getting in trust

(i won’t be able to afford it but that’s besides the point 😎)

[tired meteor]

[mortal grail]

[celest light]

Basically alternate campus

[tired meteor]

wait wtf 3% ar???? isnt northeastern easy to get into 💀

bro but like if i got into usc but got rejected from northeastern i'd fucking throw a fit lmfao

[celest light]

First yr is spent 1 sem at oakland campus other at london

[mortal grail]

wait so the speculation is that its coming out at 5pm est?

[tired meteor]

7 pm est i think

also very likely to drop tomorrow and not today because someone said they like wednesdays

[mortal grail]

💀

ok thank youuu

hoping for the best 🤞

[tired meteor]

how many of you have northeastern as one of your top choices?

[mortal grail]

def up there

i just worry i wont be in their co-op program

[shut smelt]

why is neu ranked so low?

[marble oyster]

https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/rankings/internship-programs

#1

[grizzled bough]

No

[grizzled bough]

Wtf

[kind kernel]

[dusky vault]

Just like me fr 😭

Another day another 7pm

[twilit hinge]

Aight lets see if its today

[shut smelt]

nah I doubt it will be

most likely tmr

[twilit hinge]

Prob

[hazy pulsar]

at what time tho?

[tired meteor]

7 pm est speculated

[grizzled bough]

For EA?

[hazy pulsar]

Im an intl. student. Early evenings est are rly early in the mrng for me and gawd im fed up of deferrals at 2 am

[dusky vault]

But we do always say tmrw, soooo

[dusky vault]

My god I’d cry 2am is crazy

[hazy pulsar]

fr. I cried for umich

[tired meteor]

dw same i just wake up and see them at 5 am

Bro i stayed up all night for uchicago (it came at 3:30 am and i usually sleep at 11) but i got deferred lmfao

[hazy pulsar]

i tried lol. anxiety just keeps me up

[hazy pulsar]

that sucks

[tired meteor]

me fr

well

that was me until usc

[hazy pulsar]

oh damn you got accepted?

[tired meteor]

yes!

[hazy pulsar]

flipping hell. congrats!!

[tired meteor]

ty 🫶

yeah now idrc about others😭

northeastern is bae tho

the first us school i fell in love with cuz of their library

[hazy pulsar]

Im still in a very very dangeroous situation..... only my safety school has accepted me. Others have mostly deferred.

[tired meteor]

what's your safety?

and where did you get deferred?

[hazy pulsar]

ASU

[hazy pulsar]

umich and purdue

[tired meteor]

ah

how many rd?

[hazy pulsar]

like too many lol

almost 10 ish including ucs

[tired meteor]

ok then you'll def get in somewhere dw

[hazy pulsar]

hope so 🤞

how many ivies did you apply to?

@tired meteor

[tired meteor]

3

would've done all 8 except i ran out of space on common app lmao

[hazy pulsar]

damn, I planned to do 7 (cz i didnt like dartmouth) ended up doing 2 cz its obvi a jackpot if I get accepted but $75*7 just to see a rejection is not worth it.

[tired meteor]

yeah that's def fair

[hazy pulsar]

damn, how many clgs did you apply to?

oh wait fr 20 colleges?!!

[tired meteor]

26 :D

[simple lantern]

lol thats a lot

[tired meteor]

i know

i did too many targets

[simple lantern]

btw its @hazy pulsar from a diff acc

[tired meteor]

could've done more reaches

oh lol why

[simple lantern]

idk

just too many pings on that acc

[tired meteor]

💀

[simple lantern]

friends........ ugh

[tired meteor]

mood

[simple lantern]

same

[tired meteor]

what are your targets

[simple lantern]

purdue, northeastern, umich, UCSD, UCI, UCD, NYU

idk if nyu could be that sort

but tbh its more of a reach so ignore that

so what are your targets?

[floral scroll]

northeastern is NOT a target 😭

[simple lantern]

depends you know. I was confident in saying that coz one of my senioors got in and ik her profile aint that good

[floral scroll]

it’s just that 7% acceptance rate 💀

[simple lantern]

im tryna be optimistic bro. dont push me off the cliff

[tired meteor]

Northeastern uci nyu uiuc uw-m uwash cwru Santa Clara bu emerson

[floral scroll]

mbmb it’s not my intention

[simple lantern]

got into uw m?

[floral scroll]

i’m just anxious 😵‍💫

[tired meteor]

Yeah

Only 2 deferrals so far - uchicago gtown

Everything else accept

Uiuc uw-m purdue cwru Santa Clara USC umass emerson Fordham usfca

[simple lantern]

damn, bet your profile is reallyyy good.

[tired meteor]

we'll see when reaches come out lol

But yeah my profile is decent and i love my essays

[simple lantern]

I built my essays on the very last second so couple of emm didnt live upto the mark

[harsh elm]

some people are saying it usually says this if you got in a day or 2 before so irk

[floral scroll]

wait now i gotta check

[grave leaf]

Northeastern is only a target if you’ve cured cancer

[simple lantern]

oh lol then thats a reach

[woeful fern]

bro its like 3% this year

bc they receive a crazy amt of apps (fee waiver+no supps)

[floral scroll]

don’t tell me that 😭

[woeful fern]

and are accepting fewer bc they overenrolled in the last couple years

[floral scroll]

yikes

[floral scroll]

i do NOT have this 😃

[grave leaf]

This is only if you got into global scholars and not any other campus, just for clarification

Supposedly

[floral scroll]

oh

manifesting boston 😝

[harsh elm]

wait for global scholars you can still go to boston after a year right?

[floral scroll]

pretty sure

don’t quote me tho

[tired meteor]

Bro but like 3% ar and they ain't even t50 what😭

[grave leaf]

Yes

You go to London and Oakland for your two first semesters

[dusky vault]

God nuin is my second best bet then

I doubt that they’d do global scholars if ur major wasn’t offered in London? Idk

[junior hedge]

LOL same

[grave leaf]

Same here

My top choice for college overall is NEU Boston, but NU In sounds like a really fun experience

I’d say that’d probably be my first or second choice if I don’t get into the Boston campus

[dusky vault]

Definitely! I wish it was more of a second year experience so I could make friends, but mini study abroad for a sem sounds sick

[junior hedge]

I aint gonna lie I need to keep track of my schools on a spreadsheet

I applied to 22 schools

[grave leaf]

I agree with that, the second semester would be rough trying to make friends, but since I already live close to Boston I wouldn’t be super screwed

[dusky vault]

I have applied to… 10…

[grave leaf]

Same

I don’t get why people apply to more than like 8-10, there’s no way you’re that interested in more than that amount of schools

It’s just taking spots away from people who want to go to those schools

If you get in that is

[languid sluice]

Think I did 27

Or 28

None of them were t50s

[junior hedge]

im in a weird spot

where i can get in anywhere

but i can also get rejected everywhere

[tired meteor]

I need scholarships

Id be happy to attend any of my 26 schools

Im going wherever is cheapest

Also I was worried i wouldn't get in anywhere and did 19 ea lol

then did 7 rd all reaches

[junior hedge]

im trying to better my chances

no financial aid 22 schools

[wild token]

Has it always said Build you NU journey?

[devout schooner]

Not for me

I don’t have that on my portal

[shut smelt]

I've never noticed this

[junior hedge]

i have it

[shut smelt]

me too

[grave leaf]

Yes

It’s just to change your application category

[wild token]

oh lmao

i’m just stressed guysss

[shut smelt]

nah same

[light bone]

what if i am interested in more than 8-10 schools

whats wrong with it

[light bone]

🤣

[grave leaf]

I think that’s fine, it just takes away spots from other people who want to go there

If everyone else does it, which they do, then game is game

[light bone]

thats just how the world works

u getting an offer means someone else doesn't

[devout schooner]

O shit I just pressed the change your nu journey and submitted

I don’t think that does anything

Yeah didn’t do anything

[dusky vault]

Yeah I don’t think it does anything

[junior hedge]

yeah

[grave leaf]

True, it just stinks for those who’re qualified and they get rejected from their dream school since someone who isn’t interested in the school took their spot

But yeah I agree that’s just life

[simple lantern]

how do we check the countdown?

[coral inlet]

it'd normally be !northeastern but there's no confirmed date other than "by feb 15"

[simple lantern]

@tired meteor said today 7pm edt

[coral inlet]

imo it'll be tmrw

but we'll see

[simple lantern]

mm lets see

[devout schooner]

Hopefully today

[grave leaf]

EA released on a Tuesday last year, but a lot of colleges release on Wednesdays. With the portals updating yesterday for some people both today and tomorrow are good guesses

We’ll just find out when the time comes

[prime gale]

The day it released last year changes everyday istg

[grave leaf]

That’s just from what I’ve heard from a few different people, I wasn’t there so don’t take my word

ED this year dropped on a Wednesday supposedly

[prime gale]

Nah cuz ive heard monday-wednesday
