[broken sand]

[tight token]

Apparently there were 32,000 applicants which would mean somewhere between 2-6% acceptance depending on how many they admit for yield so- yikes! Congrats to all acceptances though 🎉

[celest crypt]

grrrrr

someone forgot to click "release finaid"

[ashen marsh]

Great ty

[twin zealot]

Who got waitlisted

[sick epoch]

rice and cmu need to give me my packages bc soon i need to plan campus visits??

[thin jacinth]

is there a poll

[west hedge]

does rice still accept fin aid doc uploads for accepted students cuz i just found some stuff about business taxes and all while they don't apply to my family (they show up as not recieved btw)

[urban mortar]

accepted but i didnt receive aid info

[west hedge]

check ur fin aid tab

[verbal osprey]

Owl Days for Rice are on April 12th btw

[honest pendant]

i might do owl days express

[urban mortar]

One of the things on the checklist is awaiting but its not applicable for my family

[verbal osprey]

Owl Days are on Columbia Days 😦

[tight token]

Last year was also a record high class, so it’ll probably be a bit smaller this year? We’ll see when they release stats! (But the numbers of spots left for a class of 1k with ED and Questbridge is 481)

[urban mortar]

if my fin aid is delayed will that affect anything

[strong bobcat]

yo what?? is that their lowest by far?

[sick epoch]

fuck i cannot make it 💀

[west hedge]

damn i might have to upload new stuff you think they're still accepting?

[honest pendant]

i think express is a day before

which is clutch

[wooden pivot]

ur not going to rice

[gusty tartan]

damn bro waitlisted to gatech, carnegie mellon, and rice all in the last few days

its rough out here 😩😩🙏

[urban mortar]

wdym

the financial aid offer will just be delayed

[strong bobcat]

you'll be the first person to get into all three from the waitlist! 🤞

[west hedge]

oh so it isn't like no aid at all if i upload stuff right now

[honest pendant]

I feel controlled

[verbal osprey]

I don't have any finaid lmaooo

it still is just my norm checklist doesn't matter tho not going to rice

[royal salmon]

About what percent of people get merit scholarships from rice

[verbal osprey]

[urban mortar]

[blissful oyster]

[broken sand]

Around 16K 🥹 still pretty expensive, but it's something

not including the workstudy thing

[honest pendant]

wait my finaid hasn’t been sent to me

[blissful oyster]

16k total per year?

[broken sand]

102.1 Weighed (My school does 100 scale)
99.8 Unweighed

MUN Secretaries-General, President and Lead Guitar of Rock Band, Founder of a small library language program + 2 summers of biochem research

[ebon dock]

i think maybe @sick epoch ?

[ebon dock]

it was in my fa letter

iirc

[broken sand]

Oops, read it wrong, that was my demonstrated need. If I'm reading it correctly, it's about 13K for the 24-25 school year via grant (doesn't say anything about future aid on my end)

[blissful oyster]

o dang thats pretty good

[broken sand]

Estimated cost is still like 71K though which is...yikes

[honest pendant]

I think they let that slip for me 😛

[ebon dock]

wait even when u scroll down 😭😭

[honest pendant]

NVM I SEE IT NOW

OMG they were so kind w aid

1k remaining cost

[ebon dock]

DAMNNNNN YOU ATE FR

[urban mortar]

[honest pendant]

[urban mortar]

They said they can’t calculate it cuz I didn’t upload sth to the portal but that document doesn’t apply for my family 💀

[sick epoch]

I LITERALLY JST GOT A FULL RIDE I AM SCREAMKING 😭

[honest pendant]

[honest pendant]

[honest pendant]

[urban mortar]

[ebon dock]

OKAYY JAZZY YOU ATE THAT SHIT UP

CLEARED

[royal salmon]

anyone know if this business tax and tax schedule thing will come thru whenver fafsa eventually does? we started it in jan but its being dumb. or are those other two fields things i have to submit myself

wait nvm i found it i think i need to upload myself

[tranquil mountain]

rejected 👍 😄

[west hedge]

how do you guys know about scholarships to rice

like where do you see if you got it

[half cave]

It’s at the bottom of your acceptance letter

[flint seal]

waitlisted :/

[verbal osprey]

I've heard that it is expected for Rice's yield rate to be lower this year and their WL acceptance rate to go thru the roof so you've got a good shot

[strong bobcat]

I know someone who got off the UCI waitlist last year

[flint seal]

I hope so 🙏

[strong bobcat]

how would anyone know this?

[verbal osprey]

Based upon application increase/no increase + yield rate of previous years and class sizes

And how many people they admitted on ED

I just watched an article abt it lemme see if I can find it

[flint seal]

but they say people can come off the waitlist between May 1 and orientation, and I’m intl so I need to do visa stuff and flights soon

so hopefully if I get in it’s quickly

or if I don’t get in they don’t let us know too late as well

[strong bobcat]

watched an article???? lol

[verbal osprey]

Yes

I prefer my articles in TikTok form

[calm timber]

@dense escarp did your son get admitted?

no lol

how could you predict their yield 😭

people even haven't started to commit yet

you cannot logically predict it

[random reef]

when is owl day?

[robust carbon]

@ebon dock @honest pendant OMG CONGRATS ON RICE GUYS YALL ARE CRACKED

the streak continues 💪

[honest pendant]

TY!

[verbal osprey]

Yes... it's literally based upon last years number + all teh admissions statistics we know from this year

[languid atlas]

alright

is what it is

GO ANTEATERS ZOT ZOT ZOT

congrats y’all though!!

[robust carbon]

Uc irvine?

[languid atlas]

my best option rn

[robust carbon]

i love UC irvine

they waitlisted me><

[languid atlas]

i’m sorry

[robust carbon]

It's okay

They're still a great school

What major?

[languid atlas]

i think it was pure math

[calm timber]

what numbers bro 0 people accepted off waitlist last year

stop pulling stuff out of your ass

💀

at least provide a source before saying baseless statements

[ebon dock]

THANK YOU SMRITHI

[ebon dock]

thabks mars 😋😋

[warped knoll]

I am not cs major, got rejected from cmu, accepted gatech, waitlisted rice.

[languid atlas]

last year’s yield and class size bro

second point stands but infer the statistics

[verbal osprey]

Ok lol

[verbal osprey]

Not sure you quite understand. Based upon the increase of applications to pretty much every college + the little increase comparatively to Rices + only about 450 people of the class being made up of ED + their yield rate from the last 5 years it’s expected to probat have a low(er) yield rate

Also they over admitted last year I believe

[sick epoch]

did anyone else get that vision thing

[strong bobcat]

?

[sick epoch]

like the invite to that event

for those accepted

[strong bobcat]

congrats with the president?

[sick epoch]

its like alongside the owl day

vision + owl day

in that email

[strong bobcat]

yeah idk what that is

[random reef]

yuh i got it

[strong bobcat]

no way rice is giving its admits a free apple vision pro 🤯 🤯

[vernal zinc]

I hate them even more now

[urban mortar]

What actually is in the rice admitted package

[sick epoch]

ik theres a shirt bc they asked for size

[tight token]

Yeah! Might just be for out-of-state kids tbh

[tight token]

At least for ED, there was a printed out acceptance letter, the shirt (arrives separately), a little personalized flyer thing based on your essays, a (lame) sticker sheet, and a little certificate thing

[celest crypt]

personalized?!?!

what does that look like

[urban mortar]

How long did the acceptance stuff take to arrive

like everything other than the shirt

[tight token]

Oh dear lemme see if I can check

[urban mortar]

Thanks

[tight token]

ED was on the 14th
Looks like I got it on the 26th
(I live in CO)

[halcyon wasp]

so t shirt should come on 4/7???

[tight token]

Shirt arrived after the rest for me, and not sure 🤷‍♀️

[random reef]

yea the sticker set was not good

everything else was cool

[sinful ruin]

wait where does it ask for size cuz i got accepted and i dont see anything?

[sick epoch]

its on the side of the portal i think

i might be thinking of the wrong school 💀

[sinful ruin]

hmm i dont see it

[sick epoch]

i think i was thinking of the wrong school 😭 thats awk

[sinful ruin]

LOL yeah maybe we got too many side hoes

[sick epoch]

it ws either rice or like vandy

because i so quickly answered the question

just in shock at being accepted

[sinful ruin]

hahah very real

congrats on the acceptances!

[sick epoch]

thank you :D

[bleak grotto]

No you’re right it was for rice

On the right side of the portal home page

[sick epoch]

ooh :o

[fallen fox]

smokin on that rice pack 🚬

[dry blaze]

If anyone has questions about Rice or wants to start building their connections, dm me!

[muted lance]

Pls rice take me off the waitlist

[timid salmon]

me fr

people are projecting they will take a lot of people off this year but idk

i think the past two years they’ve taken next to nobody so its a fat chance in hell

[sly heron]

accurate

[muted lance]

Yeah a college counselor said they might take 100-200

Pls reject ur spot if ur not going 😞

[cyan dune]

How do we know what residential college we are placed in

[livid comet]

You find out over the summer

[lilac glen]

waittt are you a BNOC >.> i swear ive heard of u

[granite sail]

Where did you find this info

[muted lance]

tio on tiktok hes a college counselor

[granite sail]

Is he on ig

Don't have tik tok

[muted lance]

https://www.tiktok.com/@tineocollegeprep/video/7350845772587339050

[sharp citrus]

Is there any specific factor about Rice that is making you guys commit?

[tight token]

Student happiness was it for me! It was the only school I visited where people seemed like they actually wanted to be there

[open needle]

anyone did premed at rice here?

[west hedge]

did any admitted students get their package yet?

[lilac glen]

this and vandy my cousin goes there omg

[dry blaze]

what is with rice and the term "BNOC"? Never heard of it elsewhere

[cyan dune]

Not yet for me

[hollow pike]

guys where do we send a loci for rice?

[muted lance]

Portal

[hollow pike]

do we upload it?

[muted lance]

ye

[hollow pike]

oke

i hope im not too too late 😥

[sharp citrus]

Does anyone know what is in the admitted package for rice

(we’re not getting rice grains right)

[vocal axle]

still waiting for mine.

anyone still waiting on aid offer?

[sharp citrus]

Will update soon! I just got a Fedex email saying mine will be arriving tomorrow!

I hope they have those cute owl socks I’ve been seeing on TikTok

[cyan dune]

Guys do I pick Berkeley haas or rice sports management (I wanna become a sports agent)

[topaz mist]

do we know when rice wl results come out?

[vocal axle]

Berkeley if you got Regents, if not then definitely Rice

[cyan dune]

Money should be similar for me

I qualify for lots of aid

[vocal axle]

Rice for sure then.

[sharp citrus]

Edit: I just got my packet SOBBING because there’s no socks like in those YouTube videos

Just a cute lil sticker packet

[junior escarp]

i was looking forward to the socks too 😭

[vocal axle]

i think they send a tshirt but u get it separately

[weak dune]

i think thats for acceptance but idk

[dry blaze]

Rice is elite for sports management. I am not sure whether Berkeley beats that reputation. Sounds like Rice could be your best choice

[cyan dune]

Yeah, I would be going to Berkeley’s haas school of business which is cracked. I would have a broader range of opportunities and higher salary. But I’m pretty focused on going into sports, and that’s why I applied to rice in the first place. I’m not sure if Berkeley can get me into sports the way Rice can.

[weak dune]

RICE PACKAGE CAME

i got a shirt!

[weak dune]

i didnt get stickers at all ;c

i wanted some stickers dsjcvfhubg

[weak dune]

im a sticker fiend

[vocal axle]

I got mine yesterday and there were stickers inside the folder.

[weak dune]

i didnt get a folder..

erm

im cooked.

[vocal axle]

oh no... maybe try reaching out to admissions to let them know...i'm sure they'll send you one

[tight token]

Shirt and the rest arrive separately!

[weak dune]

THANK UUU

BLESSED UP

[cyan dune]

Yeah I got my shirt yesterday but not my other stuff

[strong bobcat]

yo it's sick that they have a customized thing

[vocal axle]

i got both on the same day

[cyan dune]

Are u in Texas

[vocal axle]

california

[sharp citrus]

What does 'the rest' mean? Also can you take a pic of what you got, if you're ok with it?

also are you an international student?

I really want the socks 😦

[tight token]

I don’t think I have a pic and I’m not at home right now, but the admit packet for ED at least was— folder, acceptance letter, lil certificate of acceptance thing, stickers, personalized banner. There weren’t any socks or the notebook like past years 😔 I’m not international! I live in CO

[vocal axle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJULyCrpZt8

this was last year's packet

i got the same 2 packages 2 days ago

[cosmic lantern]

Thinking abt my rice box image that got me waitlisted without a transfript

[lilac glen]

no way this was ur image

it's too beautiful

[sly heron]

Should I submit a LOCI if I'm waitlisted here, or email admissions office, and if so by when?

[weak dune]

yes. asap

does that help

LOL

[hollow pike]

bro im procrastinating sending it so much

and i know it prob wont even do anything

[sly heron]
