Northeastern University (2023-2024)

[twilit hinge]

rd is about mid march

based on last year

so keep an eye out the next two weeks

[nocturne crest]

hey all i didnt write loci for northeastern are my chances after deferral basically 0?

[untold shale]

It said April 1st somewhere

Do they release it early or smthng

[twilit hinge]

By april 1st

they always release early

last year was around march 22nd

[desert tree]

ouch, so we still got some time

[untold shale]

Oh word

[twilit hinge]

in the past years it was march 15th

or 14th

so yea just check around those dates ig

[untold shale]

Wow

If neu hasn’t emailed me since January am I cooked

💀

[twilit hinge]

ur chillin

[desert tree]

anyone know if data science is less competitive than cs

[twilit hinge]

no its the same

neu doesnt admit by major

But some majors have certain advantages or disadvantges like camd majors have portfolios

[desert tree]

oooh

nevermind then

[verbal helm]

falling in love w neu

[twilit hinge]

[vernal fern]

does anyone know anything about the nu.in program?

[round wyvern]

i haven't done it but i got admitted so i've been looking into it what's ur question?

[vernal fern]

like how comparable is the education at one of the international campus to the boston campus?

[grizzled bough]

When do deferral decisions come out

[mystic tide]

If I submitted Feb 29th is that too late?

[wicked imp]

No

they legit asked me for submissions 3 days ago

[mystic tide]

Ok

I emailed them to confirm but I prob won’t get an update for a while

[wicked imp]

well just don’t panic

they’ll probably get to see it

also did u win a mr beast challenge like it says in ur bio 😭

[mystic tide]

Yes

[wicked imp]

omg what challenge lol

[mystic tide]

100 player bedwars

[wicked imp]

omg UR THAT KID 😭

[mystic tide]

Huh?

[wicked imp]

I remember a friend playing that vid in class

[wicked imp]

Ur famous in my past school 😭

[mystic tide]

Which school?

Tf

[wicked imp]

and everyone was watching it cuz we asked the teacher to play it

[wicked imp]

We don’t know ur actual identity I’m just saying we watched the vid

[mystic tide]

Oh

[wicked imp]

and we collectively praised ur skills 😭

[mystic tide]

10 people won that video

[wicked imp]

W

[mystic tide]

So 💀

[wicked imp]

That’s rlly good bruh

[mystic tide]

We are on screen only at the very end

[wicked imp]

Lol

That’s such a cool thing ngl

[mystic tide]

I played with Techno and all the MrBeast crew

[twilit hinge]

Def no

Wait a min ur the mr beast award guy I remember u

[mystic tide]

Yeah

I put it on my EA apps

Didn’t work out lol

[prime gale]

It doesnt RLY matter because ur just gonna take gen eds anyways

[tired meteor]

Did you not put it for rd?

[prime gale]

Ive heard mixed that theyre easier than boston

But its just gonna be ur gen eds i wouldnt be concerned abt being behind

[mystic tide]

No I realized it might be questionable to put on the honors section on Common App since it’s not academic

I put it for MIT tho

[tired meteor]

slay

[twilit hinge]

Some ao gotta know mr beast

I think u just gotta hope

[candid gulch]

Anyone know when defferals come out?

[desert tree]

no set date yet

probably around 15th or 22nd

[candid gulch]

Bet

[viscid quartz]

is comp sci or comp eng better here?

[twilit hinge]

comp sci prob

[shut smelt]

that early?

[twilit hinge]

thats around the date for last year

[shut smelt]

damn it's coming out with UCs i'm not ready for that

[stiff spruce]

hey so i got into northeastern's london scholars program, but i'm wondering if i can transfer or switch to the nu in france? im learning french and am thinking of moving out of the us (most likely to france) and i think it would be a better experience. i didnt apply ed so im not sure if im binded to the london scholars program

[sweet ledge]

does northeastern check out final transcript or our report cards individually for the remaining quarters of our senior year?

[dull owl]

i think unfortunately you might be binded, but it doesn't hurt to email! i remember asking to opt out of NU.in and they rejected me lmfao but they're quick to respond so you should def ask

[dull owl]

they tell you you can't get lower than a C because there's a chance they'll rescind but i don't think they actually care

[sweet ledge]

does nu require us to take our ap exams for senior year ? i don’t feel like taking them

[twilit hinge]

yes

no D,F or too many C

one C is fine

they're not that crazy on the C thing

[sweet ledge]

ok thanks

[wicked imp]

if anyone thinks one c on their app is a rejection or is the reason for rejection 💀 I’m gonna genuinely laugh at them

[shut smelt]

don't UCs rescind ur offer if u get a C or smt

[wicked imp]

No

if u get below a C

Or more than two Cs

[wicked imp]

This applies to UCLA

but if u get one singular C it won’t be the end of the world

especially if it is from unforeseen circumstances

and not just cuz of not studying

[desert tree]

I’m on the edge of getting a c in my ap physics class

[prime gale]

I got a 5 on my e&m unit one test and clutched up a B i feel you

[empty wing]

Learning simple harmonic motion rn

[prime gale]

Oh to be learning simple harmonic motion

[desert tree]

mechanics was my thing

e&m is just

tbf I need to actually try first

[prime gale]

WHAT IM SAYIN

Im gettin a 5 on mech and a 3 on e&m im callin it

[stiff spruce]

Ty, can I ask who you emailed?

[trim edge]

they emailed me and said yeah they do

idk aboutt he quarters but they do check the final transcript and see if it matches your srar

[maiden fiber]

do yall know how long admissions office gets back to responding to emails

[strong abyss]

Same

Actually i kind of like e&m more bc it feels like a fresh start

mech was literally ap1 just a litte faster

[twilit hinge]

For me it took about 5 days

It might vary tho so if u dont get a response by the 5 days try calling

[empty wing]

Ts is hard how am I supposed to memorize the pendulum period equation

[prime gale]

Uhh we had equation sheets

[simple lantern]

it has been 2 weeks and i havent gotten a response

😝

[maiden fiber]

omg

😭

[twilit hinge]

Why didnt u call 😭

[simple lantern]

Im leaning towards not going to neu anyway

the whole housing thing that ive been hearing turned me off

i already dropped boston college

[twilit hinge]

okok bai bai : (

hope u get into bu tho

[simple lantern]

Ill still apply

😭

[trim edge]

E&m so hard

By far my worst class

[desert tree]

i honestly need to try for e&m

i kinda gave up because it was a new concept

i was so used to mech lol

[trim edge]

im just gonna use my spring break to catch up ont hat class

that class is so hard

[strong abyss]

what r u guys doing in it rn

we just started

[prime gale]

We just finished electric potential

[strong abyss]

oooh

[prime gale]

Im on circuts rn

[strong abyss]

wait whats after electric potential bc were starting it on monday

[trim edge]

you gotta do like double integrals, and partial derivatives

and some lniear algebra

[strong abyss]

oooh ok yeah i think thats next for us

[trim edge]

yeah same

i think we just finished up with circuits and stuff today

[prime gale]

Circuts

Current

Voltage

Resistance

Etc

[trim edge]

[prime gale]

And such

[trim edge]

i hope this clas transfers

[prime gale]

Its same units i think cuz thats what im doing

[trim edge]

its not listed on the transfer database but i hope that when i send the syllabus in they'll give me cred

[round wyvern]

[strong abyss]

hahaha its ok

i take everything online w agrain of salt

[prime gale]

Did u get deferred

[strong abyss]

no

i didnt apply EA

since i did REA

[simple lantern]

CONGRATS ON NU IN

IM CHEM E TOO I wanna know everything 😭😭😭

[round wyvern]

have they released nuin location visa information yet?

[real oak]

has anyone actually gotten rescinded? little scared because i’m probably going to get a D in math for the year (my worstttt subject) & i’ve struggled with my grades a lot this year because i have a sleep disorder that makes me chronically tired. i’m an ib student & it’s been majorly affecting me with the workload

i got a D in math sophomore year but retook the class over the summer & got an A. it’s no longer factored into my GPA but neu definitely still saw it on my transcript and i still got in the boston campus

[round wyvern]

in terms of admission it says nothing lower than a c

at least for me it did

[real oak]

yeah same but do they actuallyyy rescind

[trim edge]

id be a lil worried

i tried to drop one of my classes that has no impact on my graduation and i informed northeastern and they said that i was admitted with the expectation that i was gonna complete the academic plan that i submitted and that they do evaluate final transcripts

[real oak]

oh yeah i know they rescind over dropping class for sure, but one bad grade i’ve heard as long as i contact them & explain i should be fine??? idk

[trim edge]

just work hard and get a C

what class is it

[real oak]

i’m trying so hard lmao

ib math applications sl. its not the hardest class but i suckkkk at it

[trim edge]

i have no ida what that is

but just try to grind and im sure you'll get thru it

[real oak]

it’s pretty much a general math course combining stats, calculus, trig, etc

i’m trying. i got a 71 semester one but just got a 60 for 3rd quarter. idk im so so worried but also one bad grade & i have an excuse for it

[trim edge]

i mean you ahve 3 months

thats more than enough time to get the grade up to at least a C

[strong abyss]

are you able to have ur teacher help u or smth

if you explain the circumstances

[real oak]

i get out of school in april because of the ib exams so my last quarter is cut short

[trim edge]

ohh

[strong abyss]

i think getting a D would be a problem imo, idk if its enough to rescind but my friend got a C last year and had to have a call w someone to explain it

but i feel like if ur getting a D then a C is something potentially doable?

[real oak]

yeah imo a rare sleep disorder is a pretty good excuse. i only got diagnosed at the end of last year & i’ve been trying to struggle through senior year

[strong abyss]

then i'm sure theyd be understanding?

[real oak]

i might get like a 69 or something ughhh

[trim edge]

69 and then round up

[real oak]

i hope so!

[strong abyss]

i think you should just call and ask/explain maybe

if u get asked

[trim edge]

beg your teacher

[strong abyss]

^^

[real oak]

math isn’t a requirement for my major which is nice

[trim edge]

what major?

[real oak]

music industry & communication studies

[strong abyss]

i think youll be fine just explain ur illness if they ask

see if u were majoring in cs then id be concerned LOL

[trim edge]

yeah fr

cs math is crazy

ive doen calc 1,2, linear aglebra, differential equations, and diff eq

[strong abyss]

ugh yall i need RD to come likeeee

i wanna get in pls pls pls

[trim edge]

and i still gotta take 1-2 more math classes

[strong abyss]

dam

[real oak]

also i’m doing nu accelerate classes so maybe if i do good in those classes they might factor that in

[trim edge]

arent you only allowed to do that once youre in?

[real oak]

yeah. it’s for early decision applicants who were accepted. i already paid my enrollment deposit

[trim edge]

theyre gonna review your transcript before theyll let you take those classes

[real oak]

nah. they start in like may

before school ends

[strong abyss]

hmm

[trim edge]

didnt you say your thing ended in april?

[real oak]

for ib students only but i’m not sure if that’s when they finalize transcripts idk. my school has regular people who stay for the end of year.

[trim edge]

idk

i wouldnt count on it

[strong abyss]

i would speak more but idk how IB works at all

[real oak]

all i’m saying is i feel like i see posts every year about people freaking out about being rescinded but i looked it up & it’s apparently very rare and for circumstances such as dropping a class or straight up failing despite the “you can’t get below a C” line

also neu has already seen a D on my transcript for math so it’s not technically out of the realm for me 😭

[real oak]

when does that come out?

[real oak]

okay just calculated i only need like a 65 on my final i just might be okay if i do okay in the next quarter which is just all review

[keen urchin]

Is anyone here confirmed in going to neu oakland for a year and transferring to boston afterwards?

Need friends 😭😭

[trim edge]

wsg

[keen urchin]

Which majorr

[trim edge]

cs

[keen urchin]

ah damn ok

[trim edge]

prolly gonna do cs+comp eng and then math

wyd?

[keen urchin]

Behavioral neurosciencee

Premed

[trim edge]

ohh okat

i think oakland is good for cs majors but idk bout the rest

[keen urchin]

Yeah i mean there s abit of cs in neuroscience as well so i m excited ab that

[trim edge]

is there cs+neuroscience?

[keen urchin]

Nah just within the courses in neuroscience i think there s a cs elective

[trim edge]

there is

behaviorial neuroscience and cs

if youre interested

[keen urchin]

Ooh

Yeah might consider

[trim edge]

its at boston tho

but you can take supplementary courses at oakland and then declare the cs and neurosceince at boston

[simple lantern]

does anyone know the nu in location options for chemical engineering

[round wyvern]

Spain Greece Ireland Northern Ireland

[simple lantern]

Ty!!!!

[silk olive]

Do we have to send in a updated SRAR when deferred from Northeastern?

[trim edge]

might be too late if you havent alr

decisions are on march 15

[valid crane]

wait what?

[valid crane]

aren’t decisions like late march?

[round wyvern]

hey guys im wondering if i should ask neu if i can go to boston directly because of my medication being difficult to take to europe

worth a try or no?

[trim edge]

pretty sure rd is march 15

check portal

[trim edge]

good excuse could work

see if the medicatoin is like banned in europe or something

[round wyvern]

its not but its hard to get a supply to take to ireland

[valid crane]

i did i can’t find anything

do u have a screenshot or smth?

[trim edge]

no i dont have anything

[round wyvern]

LMFAOOO NEVERMIND

ADHD MEDS ARE THE FIRST THING WHEN I SEARCH IT UP

[trim edge]

might be a good excuse

[valid crane]

my sister goes to northeastern but because she had a late birthday she wasn’t 18 yet so she stayed in boston

[trim edge]

i saw this person got rescinded to northeastern london cuz they werent 18

idk what happened but they said they werent able to go northeastern london so im not sure if they got rescinded from the entire school orjust london

[valid crane]

i think london

cause that’s what happens to my sister she was also supposed to go london

she still in northeastern tho graduating next yr

[round wyvern]

what did she say

[trim edge]

was she alr in northeastern for a year and then she tried to go to london?

or was she accepted to london as freshmen?

[valid crane]

no she was accepted to london as a freshman and she didn’t mind going but they told her she can’t

cause she was still a minor

[trim edge]

ohh okay so she got to go to boston?

[valid crane]

she didn’t say anything they told her

[valid crane]

yes

[trim edge]

thats good

[round wyvern]

kfkl;asjfdl;kf

[strong abyss]

[round wyvern]

I saw a Reddit comment from three years ago that said they make you still start in the spring but you have to take classes somewhere else for fall

I’d rather go to Ireland

What if they make me and then I’m stuck doing that

[twilit hinge]

they wont

if ur nuin ur goin back to boston

[round wyvern]

no bc I said my meds are illegal in Europe what if they make me go to Oakland instead

[twilit hinge]

oh uh

are u sure theres no student

like exempt form

u can check

[round wyvern]

wdym

[twilit hinge]

theres no way they dont let u take medical needed med

[round wyvern]

I think there is a way to get it

But I sent an email first asking if they could consider switching me to Boston

[twilit hinge]

Alr

[round wyvern]

so what’s gonna happen to me

[twilit hinge]

tbh idk

I think they'll try to figure out how to make ur meds like medical necessary so theres prob another form they'll send for u

[round wyvern]

okay hope so

well I hope they send me to Boston but if not then oh well

I like Ireland

[twilit hinge]

Idk if they gonna send u to boston

its already like crowded lmao

[round wyvern]

probably not

yeah

[twilit hinge]

but that would be peak finesse if u somehow get boston lmao

[round wyvern]

maybe I should unsend my email and ask my doctor idk

[twilit hinge]

I feel like they're gonna check in with a colelge/location that will let u keep certain meds

[twilit hinge]

u cant unsend emails : (

[round wyvern]

I like Ireland tho

and I don’t want to get sent to Oakland

I’m having a panic attack

[twilit hinge]

U can always uncomitt koi

if they send u to oakland

its not ur fault

[round wyvern]

this is what i sent

Hello,
My name is and I recently committed to NUin Ireland and was very excited. However, I just came to know while learning more about Ireland, that my ADHD medication isn't allowed in Europe. As a result, I'm afraid that if I go to Europe, I will be unable to continue with my prescribed medication and regimen. Therefore, I was wondering if it would be possible at all for me to start my Northeastern journey at the Boston campus rather than through the NUin program. Let me know if any extra information is required regarding my diagnosis, medication, or treatment provider.
Thank you in advance,

[twilit hinge]

Ok thats good

honetly next time call

[round wyvern]

yeah

I’ll just call Monday

[twilit hinge]

tbh they prob dealt with this before they have good special accomodation support

cause theres prob other meds people need to bring but cant

[round wyvern]

but I don’t want to get sent to Oakland or London or some other random school that’s my worry

[trim edge]

oaklands calm

[twilit hinge]

ya u get to meet this person

[round wyvern]

They don’t have my major

[trim edge]

you can just take supplementary classes there and then declaer your major at boston

imma do comp eng and cs and they dont have that at oakland so ill stick with cs till i get to boston

and at oakland ill take classes for comp eng will im in oakland and declarre the major at boston

[round wyvern]

but I don’t want them to suddenly move me to Oakland is my point

[twilit hinge]

wait then u might get boston : -

: 0

[round wyvern]

don’t get my hopes up lol

[twilit hinge]

[round wyvern]

YOU DID THIS WITH TUFTS TOO MAN

[twilit hinge]

HEY I DID THE SAME FOR NEU AND U GOT IN

[trim edge]

accents arent really that noticeable tbh

[strong abyss]

ya ik im jokes

i wish i had an accent though it would be cool

but i guess i have an amrrican accent

[round wyvern]

I think my life just imploded after committing to northeastern cause now I’m thinking of cc > transfer

[trim edge]

bros indecisivie

[round wyvern]

it seems like a better deal I’m ngl

[trim edge]

go for it

i loved my cc experience

[round wyvern]

full cost for neu isn’t worth when I think abt it

[trim edge]

prob not

im only going cuz i dont need too long to graduate

and its not too expensive

[round wyvern]

maybe I just try to transfer out of neu after a year? But if I’m nuin I can’t really do extracurriculars right

[simple lantern]

Probs for the best you can just explain in additional info that they shipped you off to Ireland lol

[round wyvern]

💀

[light bone]

💀💀

bruh

[wicked imp]

I’m withdrawing NEU

💀

[wicked imp]

Exactly why

[raw dove]

can I change my major rn?

[tired meteor]

do you have any other rd options you're waiting on?

[twilit hinge]

kois waiting on some ucs

yea if cost is a problem just uncommitt, dont put urself through debt

[valid crane]

I heard that northeastern might be coming in a few days?

is that true?

[simple lantern]

Ya probably

Came out March 17th last yr which is 3rd Friday of March

March 15 is 3rd Friday of March this yr

[tired meteor]

wait really

why'd they delay so much for ea then

[simple lantern]

No fr I lowkey don’t believe that they will actually release 😒

[raw dove]

can I change my major rn?

[maiden fiber]

didn’t rd come out in waves last year

[twilit hinge]

as of rn no, but if ur admitted it's an easy change in the portal

Yea based on last year rd did come out in waves, but most was around 7pm on March 22nd

I feel like decisions for this year will be more likely next week than this week

[strong abyss]

wait rlly

[strong abyss]

when were the waves does anyone know

[twilit hinge]

they were on the same day I think, just at different times

I didn't look too far into how many waves but it was all after 7pm est

[strong abyss]

kk thank youu

[viscid quartz]

should i major in comp eng or comp sci? (the goal is not being unemployed🙏 )

[simple lantern]

Good question 😭 comp Eng is lowkey kinda dead rn and has never been a popular major but cs is booming but with ai and stuff and over saturated job markets it will eventually go downhill

[twilit hinge]

just waiting for the cs market to revive itself lmao

comp eng market is hard as well, but not as bad as cs

[grizzled bough]

Ohio State for 15k a year or NEU for 75k a year

[twilit hinge]

osu

[zenith siren]

THEEEEEE ohio state university

[twilit hinge]

ye save urself money

[grizzled bough]

Why not neu

[zenith siren]

expensive

[twilit hinge]

yea its not worth the money

[zenith siren]

unless ur hella loaded and the money doesnt matter much to u lol

[twilit hinge]

^^

[grizzled bough]

But isn’t OSU mid?

[twilit hinge]

At that point then its just the strength of the program and location

[grizzled bough]

NEU is a T40

[twilit hinge]

dont look at ranks

[zenith siren]

well technically it isnt this yr

[twilit hinge]

look at which college is stronger in ur major interest

[zenith siren]

enjoy having a competent football team

[grizzled bough]

Finance

Which one is stronger Eddie the platypus

[twilit hinge]

I heard osu has a strong business program

[grizzled bough]

But neu is better

[twilit hinge]

eh not really

I think osu is actually strong for its finance

and also for 15k thats a good deal

[grizzled bough]

How much is your neu coa

[twilit hinge]

around 80k

[grizzled bough]

All in?

[twilit hinge]

yea

prob have some small scholarships to help

[grizzled bough]

So 20k a year?

[twilit hinge]

wdym 20k a year

u mean all in as in all four years for 80k?

[grizzled bough]

80k a year or in total

[twilit hinge]

a year

[grizzled bough]

Oh damn

[twilit hinge]

Yea just looked around if ur wondering about rank osu finance program is stronger than neu

[grizzled bough]

Wait if your paying 80k why is 75k not worth it

[twilit hinge]

well im not sure if cost is a problem for u

and also osu has a stornger program for ur interest

at a cheaper price

[mystic tide]

not even T50

[twilit hinge]

sounds better deal for me

[mystic tide]

Unless you are very rich where the difference between 15k and 75k is nothing, go to OSU

[grizzled bough]

Thanks for the advice Ed

[twilit hinge]

yuh

[grizzled bough]

My parents have 200k in their 529

[twilit hinge]

just be wise financially and program

[grizzled bough]

I feel like I would water it

Waste

[mystic tide]

that won't cover NEU

[twilit hinge]

yea

[grizzled bough]

By going to osu

[twilit hinge]

cant u take out the reamining money

?

[mystic tide]

75k x 4= 300k

[grizzled bough]

Yes

[grizzled bough]

YES but there’s a heavy tax

[twilit hinge]

I mean still u can get a decent amount back

[grizzled bough]

Also I don’t want to a stupid MBA

[mystic tide]

just use it for grad school

[zenith siren]

what do ur parents think

[twilit hinge]

this I agree

[grizzled bough]

They said OSU or UMass over neu

[twilit hinge]

Ok so they even agree with us lmao

I dont think ur parents mind u goin to 4 year for 60k, and the remaining 140k even if u get heavy taxed is still money back into ur family pocket for future investments

[grizzled bough]

But the co ops

[twilit hinge]

You will get plenty of internships as well at osu

[grizzled bough]

🥺

[twilit hinge]

its finance program is reputable

[mystic tide]

the difference in cost is almost 250k

[twilit hinge]

Its under fisher college of business right

[grizzled bough]

Yes

[twilit hinge]

ya thats good

[mystic tide]

you'd rather pay 250k more just to be in Boston? (it stinks there)

[grizzled bough]

Colombus 🤮

[twilit hinge]

Yo dont hate on boston lmfao

[grizzled bough]

Hahahahha

[twilit hinge]

but 250k for boston is def not worth it

[mystic tide]

<<NYC

[grizzled bough]

give me reasons why I should choose northeastern

[twilit hinge]

Imma go visit boston and see if this is true

I love nyc as well

[zenith siren]

there arent a lot

[twilit hinge]

but hte traffic

[grizzled bough]

Eddie

[twilit hinge]

uhh

[mystic tide]

every city has traffic

[twilit hinge]

ig just coop and location

[twilit hinge]

ny is wild

[mystic tide]

at least in NYC you can get around quickly without a car

[twilit hinge]

I got stuck at the same traffic light for 1 hour

[grizzled bough]

Let’s be real which companies are in “Colombus”

[twilit hinge]

true

[mystic tide]

The Boston metro is so fucking slow

[twilit hinge]

I heard they fixed it

and it got slower somehow

LOL

[zenith siren]

ive heard only bad things about the T

[mystic tide]

When I went on it the first time I was like 💀 I'd get there faster by biking

The NYC metro is actually fast

somewhat

[zenith siren]

ig compared to other american cities ye

im happy with it

our system is pretty expansive too

[twilit hinge]

yea the metro screech in nyc shows its crazy speed

[zenith siren]

(totally not cause the tracks are from the beginning of last century 😶‍🌫️ )

[mystic tide]

nyc has the best public transportation system of any city in the US

[grave leaf]

That’s all there is lmao

[mystic tide]

Too bad I'm gonna get rejected from Columbia

[grave leaf]

The T is notorious for having constant issues

[mystic tide]

I might have a shot at NYU tho

[grave leaf]

It’ll never be fully functioning

[zenith siren]

nyu will be tough but i dont think id choose it over my current options

but manhattan 🤩

[twilit hinge]

I believe in u

[mystic tide]

if I went to NYU tho I'd porb live in Brooklyn and commute by subway

which would be mid

[zenith siren]

which college did u apply?

cas?

[mystic tide]

but still NYC

prob

idk

[zenith siren]

cause the engineering school is in brooklyn

[mystic tide]

oh I didn't know that

well I applied bio

but I might switch to engineering

[zenith siren]

oh yeah that's cas/manhattan for bio

[twilit hinge]

So ig tandon

Oh

Isnt engineering in tandon

[zenith siren]

yessir tandon is the engineering school

[twilit hinge]

Oh alr

[mystic tide]

NYU kinda mid for engineering tho

[round wyvern]

its not a problem

[round wyvern]

my parents are giving me crises ok

bc they keep saying like

"ok well its ur money if this is how u choose to spend it"

[round wyvern]

none of them likely

dont worry im over my cc > transfert hing that whole thing only lasted 10 mins

[junior scroll]

business def one of osu’s best programs

[fossil zephyr]

no decision date yet ?

[trim edge]

is tandon easier to get into than cas?

nyus really the only decisions im waiting on

[zenith siren]

apparently it is, but i doubt by a lot

[trim edge]

i saw their acceptnace rate for cas was like 4%?

[zenith siren]

ye

[trim edge]

i saw tandon is 35%?

[zenith siren]

seriously doubt it's that high for rd

more likely to be in the low teens if not then even lower

[trim edge]

idt tandon is super hard

at least compared to cas and stern

i think tandon like 20%

[zenith siren]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[mystic tide]

whaaat?

that's crazy low

I might be done 💀

[trim edge]

originally i applied for cs at cas

and then my friend told me cas is basically impossible so i switched to cs at tandon

[mystic tide]

I'm fucked

[trim edge]

what did you apply for

[mystic tide]

bio

not premed

[trail cave]

This college of arts and sciences?

[trim edge]

yup

[mystic tide]

am I fucked

[trim edge]

if youre a strong canddiate you'll be the 4%🤷🏽‍♂️

its not liek they check apps and say oh we only accept 45 so lets reject this person

[trail cave]

I got in cas there is no way it 4%

Can’t be 💀

[trim edge]

https://as.nyu.edu/features/impact-makers/2023/cas-2023-admission-rate.html

[trail cave]

That’s crazy

[trim edge]

word

i switched to tandon

but i didnt write the supp

i thought "optional" meant optional

[mystic tide]

I'm fucked

[trim edge]

relax

nothing you can do now

dont fuss over things you cant control

[trail cave]

We all going to college

[mystic tide]

NYU would be convenient

[trim edge]

id rather northeastern tbh

even fi i do get in

[mystic tide]

I actually thought my app was good enough to get in with 12% acceptance rate

But 4% is 1/3 of that...

I'm fucked

[trim edge]

relax bro

you got 4 otther acceptnaces

[maiden fiber]

boston > nyc 🤭🤭

[mystic tide]

all safties

I applied to too many safeties

[trim edge]

ohh

i wish i applied to more schools as well tho

i wish i did like lower ivys like brown

[mystic tide]

I should've applied to less safties and more targests

I applied to a good amount of reach schools

I guess the logic was I'd just go to my state school anyways so might as well shoot high

[trim edge]

yeah same

[mystic tide]

But I prob could've gotten good scholarship if I applied to some soft targets

But then again my state school is already pretty good

so I'd prob go there over most soft targets

[untold shale]

who is waiting for RD?

i have my mid year here

but not on my checklist

just me or u guys as well?

[pastel marlin]

Mine is like that as well

[untold shale]

ohhh ok good to know thx

[frank warren]

Tell me why the northeastern hype stopped making sense after they accepted me

[mystic tide]

bc they are mid

not even T50

good school but way overhyped

[pliant lotus]

u realized all they want is ur money

[mystic tide]

I wrote about a scholarship I wanted in my LOCI, is that dumb?

Honestly idc bc I learned in this whole college process that you won't know what you can get until you ask.

[frank warren]

Yeah

[frank warren]

Nah they gave me hella money

[frank warren]

Literally

[pliant lotus]

ur so lucky

they mustve taken it to me and given it to everyone else

ur welcome guys 😻

[frank warren]

Lmaooo appreciate it

It just breaks my heart I’m gonna end up here bc honors + money after everything ahhh

[mystic tide]

why? NEU is a great school

it's overhyped but still super good, especially it's co-op program

[frank warren]

Well I could’ve done much less in high school and still gotten in

[mystic tide]

no...

[frank warren]

Yeah

[mystic tide]

Look at all us

many of us were deferred

[frank warren]

All my friends got in too

And they did like half of what I did

[mystic tide]

Well that doesn't mean you would've

[frank warren]

Honestly yeah I think my schools just sample bias

[mystic tide]

Didn't u say u got honors? Does that include scholarship?

[frank warren]

Yeah

I mean I’m grateful but

[mystic tide]

Then you did what you had to do

[frank warren]

I’ve always aimed higher

[mystic tide]

You didn't waste your effort

[twilit hinge]

yea honors is great

u get the best dorm

[mystic tide]

NEU isn't the best but it's made a reputable name for itself

[frank warren]

Right but like 7 ppl from my school got honors and 20 of them got in 😭

[mystic tide]

It's a good school and co-op + Boston is really good

[twilit hinge]

bruh no one in my school got in except me and my friend :/

[frank warren]

None of them had the extracurriculars or APs I had

[mystic tide]

no one from my school got in period

deferred

[frank warren]

I know but it’s just like underwhelming seeing all my classmates get in too

[mystic tide]

I get it

[frank warren]

I’m sure if it seemed selective locally I’d feel better but my school is just a feeder I guess

[twilit hinge]

i hope my other friends get in

need a roomie

[twilit hinge]

yea this happens ig

especially with mass schools

[frank warren]

And lowk I don’t get along w people from my school bc they all see me as competition

So id wanna go as far away from them as possible

[mystic tide]

Imma prob have to go to UMass Amherst (which tons of people from school goes to) even tho I put in way more effort in academics. but school is expensive so that's just how it is 🤷‍♂️ I know I'll do great wherever I go and I'm sure you will too

[maiden fiber]

u go to school in mass?

[frank warren]

Like they love that I grinded for 4 years just to end up at the same school as them

[frank warren]

Nah CT

[twilit hinge]

you'll see them on campus occasionally, but dont worry I think you'll find a group of people that u like to surround urself with

[maiden fiber]

umass amherst is a pretty solid state school at least

[mystic tide]

NEU is big so you prob won't see them much if at all

[frank warren]

Umass Amherst is one of my top choices rn (honors and rlly good merit) but again all this for Umass 😭 really

13 APs and ISEF and tons of awards for a not t30 school

[mystic tide]

NEU > UMass

[frank warren]

I know like 10 years from now it won’t matter

But rn it just stings

[twilit hinge]

nah amherst is good too

[maiden fiber]

umass > neu for cs 😔

[twilit hinge]

got some good food

[frank warren]

Yeah I’m CS

[mystic tide]

bro forget about rank at this point

[frank warren]

I’m so surprised I got in Umass but idk

[maiden fiber]

umass cs is hella selective

its so good for cs tho?

[frank warren]

Yeah

I know

[maiden fiber]

u should be proud u got in

[frank warren]

I’m still waiting on like cmu and stuff

[frank warren]

I was for like 20 mins but I’m back where I started with the t20 obsession 😭

[twilit hinge]

i feel like u will get cmu

I see da vision

[frank warren]

Idk I’m just rlly like underwhelmed with my acceptances but I know I’m in a good position

[frank warren]

THANK U aw

I hope I do

[twilit hinge]

just be happy for now

u got some good "safeties" i guess

[frank warren]

CMU is my top rn

[twilit hinge]

yes for cs I would too put that as top

[maiden fiber]

even if u dont get in umass is a good option to fall back on for cs so itll b ok

[twilit hinge]

^^

[mystic tide]

we can both go to UMass lol

[frank warren]

Yeah fs and I got honors and merit for all 4 of my colleges so I’m hoping that’s good indication of other acceptances lmfao

[mystic tide]

bouta get recked by T20s this month

[frank warren]

REAL

[mystic tide]

im also honors

[frank warren]

Yes I get that but I didn’t grind to go to a fall back school

[frank warren]

let’s gooo do yk if it’s good

Commonwealth right

[mystic tide]

yeah

it seems cool

[frank warren]

Is it much different from normal Umass

[mystic tide]

idk

[twilit hinge]

yea thats impressive

[maiden fiber]

ehhh i dont rlly think umass is really a safety tho esp for cs

[frank warren]

Then I think they made a mistake in my app cuz no way I got honors too

[twilit hinge]

umass admits by major?

or by school

[maiden fiber]

yea major

[twilit hinge]

ah ok

[frank warren]

I think it’s my rejections weighing me down over anything else

[mystic tide]

they do honors by school I think

[frank warren]

Wait how does that work

[mystic tide]

bro just say fuck you to them for rejecting you and move on

You have more decisions to come

[maiden fiber]

a lot of ppl ik got waitlisted or rejected from umass

[frank warren]

Yeah idk

[maiden fiber]

^ in state too

[mystic tide]

roughly let in the top 10% from each school

[frank warren]

It’s also my classmates getting into crazy schools and it’s not helping

[mystic tide]

They didn't let me in the honors college at first

[frank warren]

Ohhh I see

Did you apply EA?

[mystic tide]

I had to appeal bc I was prob gonna go there bc cheap instate 💀

But they let me in

so it's competitive

[mystic tide]

yeah

[frank warren]

Ohhh

I applied RD and got my decision back like last week lmfao

I need to do more research still

[finite roost]

Guys does anyone know the date when they release RDs ? or is it on rolling bases

[strong abyss]

some people are saying this friday

[lavish thorn]

THIS FRIDAY ?

wait where did u hear this from

[finite roost]

btw can anyone see the locations or is it just me ? I wasn't able to pick or change the preference of the campus since like a month ago. Does that mean they will pick one for me ( if i got in) ?

[slate widget]

Think this is based on past decision dates

[slate widget]

Wow. Were there any particular circumstances that allowed for an earlier decision?

[frank warren]

No I believe all RD decisions were sent at once

[finite roost]

really? how come the rest didn't get any updates about it mine still says no later than april 1st

[slate widget]

wdym?

I didn't receive my decision

[slate widget]

yea me neither

[grave leaf]

In past years

Not this year

[frank warren]

No that message was about Umass

I got into northeastern EA

[frank warren]

That message was about Umass I applied EA to northeastern

[slate widget]

lol where did Umass come into this lol

[grave leaf]

Oh that’s weird, I got my UMass decision last week

[frank warren]

That message was about Umass I applied EA to northeastern

[finite roost]

lol right? it just added more to the confusion

[slate widget]

mb, idt i scrolled up enough

[frank warren]

If you scroll up u can see that we talked about Umass honors vs northeastern honors for CS

[slate widget]

yea sorry, i assumed you were talking abt NEU. Didn't scroll up

[maiden fiber]

the only confirmed thing is that RD will be released by april 1st but based on last year’s dates it was sent in waves from 15-22nd i believe

[twilit hinge]

I dont remember if it was waves over days or few hours over the same day

But majoirty came out 22nd last year

[pastel marlin]

I checked their instagram, there were two waves: the 15th and 22nd

[strong oyster]

Whitman for 30K or NEU for 80K 🤔

[novel bolt]

please tell me you’re joking

[strong oyster]

[novel bolt]

if your parents are paying i’d tell you to do whatever but an extra $200k is literally a down payment on a house (or an entire house depending on where you live). or grad school. or both

[maiden fiber]

lol yeah neu is def not worth the debt

[strong abyss]

omg plsss come out next week pls god

i mean this

[fossil zephyr]

confrirmed this year?

[simple lantern]

@twilit hinge lmfao 😭😭😭😭

[prime gale]

Its confirmed to happen before december 31st yes

I so funny

[frank warren]

Dead

[blazing scaffold]

Northeastern mascot so ugly

[twilit hinge]

I showed my sis that cause shes at uconn

said neu husky ugly too 💀

I cant even deny

[mystic tide]

why tf the NEU husky look so weird

NEU husky has rabies

NEU husky looks like he's gonna do the bite of '24

Fnaf looking ass

[blazing scaffold]

Fr lmao

[twilit hinge]

💀💀

[light bone]

is this confirmed

[maiden fiber]

no that was based on last year

the only thing confirmed is that itll b released by 4/1

[trim edge]

Think 15th

[tidal goblet]

LMAO

[valid crane]

doesn’t it always come out on a Wednesday though?

i think it could be tmrw tbh

[tired meteor]

thats crazy

[raw dove]

Tmr?

Rlly?

[trim edge]

Isn’t the 15th what’s listed on the portal?

[valid crane]

i don’t see that?

could u show me

like send a screenshot

[trim edge]

I don’t have that

I got in ea

That’s what someone told@me a few days ago when they checked the portal

[valid crane]

oh congratsss

[valid crane]

no i haven’t seen anything on the portal

just by april 1st

[trim edge]

Thank you

[trim edge]

Ohh okay

[valid crane]

but from precious years it comes out in waves

so only a portion will hopefully hear tmrw and the rest after

but tbh this year who knows it could come out on april first for all we know

[trim edge]

🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[maiden fiber]

^^

[lavish thorn]

i'm kinda mad why can't they just say it

instead of jumpscaring us

[strong abyss]

right

do we think wednesday?

[lavish thorn]

like they know when the decision comes!! i had a slight idea of when ea would come out bc of a2c, but imagine all of the people who are not on this thread

they probs got jumpscared

[lavish thorn]

portal doesn't say anything so idk

[strong abyss]

i know i thinjk ab all of the ppl who dont have reddit and how they literally get jumpscared at almost every decision

[raw dove]

when is northeastern coming out

[maiden fiber]

never, hope that helps!

[pure crystal]

i think northeastern deleted my acc

[trim edge]

idek if I wanna go here anymore ngl

[ocean lava]

what time in the day did northeastern release for ea/ed?

[vernal fern]

i got mine

email at 4:20 PM

jan 31st

which is a wednesday

[round wyvern]

why

[ocean lava]

thanks

[novel bolt]

i got my email at 7:22pm est on jan 31st

early action

[round wyvern]

it was 7pm est yeah

[grave leaf]

Yeah EA was wednesday

[verbal helm]

i got my ea notification jan 31st at 6ish CST

[empty wing]

feb*

[strong abyss]

msybe tomorrow yall

[prime gale]

I got my ea at 7pm exactly

I forget day tho sry

Prolly 31

[frank warren]

EA came out rlly early yeah

Like 15 days early

[strong abyss]

cuz they have no supplementals to read

probably

[fossil zephyr]

they read your common app though essay i thought ?

[lavish thorn]

yup just common app

[novel bolt]

it was by february 15, there wasn’t a specific date

[frank warren]

Right but isn’t RD “by April 1st”

It was also random like no one knew it was coming

[novel bolt]

well i mean. that’s how it is every year

for northeastern at least

april 1st isn’t the actual day, it’s just the day they’re promising to release it by

so it’s not really early

[primal sedge]

We need a decision on the 1st

so on the 2nd they can say it was all a prank

So everyone who was meant to be rejected gets an acceptance on the 1st and on the 2nd they get rejected

🧠

[untold shale]

does northeastern care about dedication to ur mjor

cus my supplementals show why i wanna do business but my main essay is literally about music (little to do with business)

is that fine

[primal sedge]

northeastern had supps?

lol

[fossil zephyr]

no

[untold shale]

nooo

i mean my supps in general

[primal sedge]

ahh

[shut smelt]

do they usually come out on fridays or...?

[trim edge]

ea came on a Wednesday

[frank warren]

EA felt so random ngl

Some ppl didn’t get honors and I thought they should’ve

Some deferrals that were supposed to be rejections 💀

From my school idk ab other schools

[shut smelt]

sooo when is it likely to come out?

[frigid quail]

helpd

[frigid quail]

why

[strong abyss]

Maybe today if we get blessed

[shut smelt]

just end my misery

[mossy drift]

what time do yall think its coming out

[tiny sandal]

Is yield protect real?

[glossy coyote]

it's rare but it does happen

have you demonstrated interest?

[tiny sandal]

None besides the $70 application fee

Got deferred w/ 4.0 UW 1560 13 APs and above average EC’s 🥴

[kind kernel]

did u only apply boston campus?

[tiny sandal]

I think so is that bad

[kind kernel]

no jus wondering. I think most ppl did anyways

[tiny sandal]

👍

[shut smelt]

do they care abt demonstrated interest?

[tall hare]

Neu is big on it

[shut smelt]

i went to their campus tour despite being international...does that help

[novel bolt]

they’re not big on it. they consider it, but it’s not that important

on the common data set it’s ranked as “considered” out of “very important, important, considered, not considered,”

the biggest thing you can do to demonstrate interest is apply early action or early decision

[mellow crystal]

Are deferred applicants higher priority than rd applicants

[slate oxide]

no deferred applicants are reviewed with everyone else in the regular decision pool

[trim edge]

Lowkey think I can get cs at umd

And worst case I do comp Eng at umd if I don’t get cs

At northeastern I’m looking at doing cs and comp Eng too

[cold cliff]

northeastern cs is way less competitive to get into than umd...
