University of Michigan (2023-2024)

[oak current]

it said within 10 days on the letter

[frosty yew]

cuz it’s always Friday

[oak current]

ah ok

hoping i get CS

[vast bramble]

what is ur major now

[frosty yew]

data science

[vast bramble]

ah cool

[raw wagon]

hey when do defer decisions come ut

[wintry valve]

same as rd

[coarse ridge]

I just want someone to tell me it'll be okay lol

[raw wagon]

lol it wont

snap to reality

thanks

[sleek steppe]

I think they won’t read ur app before all ur materials are submitted

[paper marsh]

LOCI is optional

[sleek steppe]

Ohh that’s true I forgot that

I guess they would not reevaluate any deferred applicants before March 8th

[coarse ridge]

lmfao

[vast plank]

for ross applicants

did you guys write about just ross or ross + lsa (or whatever first-year unit you applied through) for the 2nd required essay

[wet imp]

just ross

[vast plank]

ah

thanks

it's rolling I should've done this much earlier but

this is the last essay I have to write

I did the portfolio

I did the other required essay

this is it

[mint orchid]

anybody know when ross EA comes out

[wet imp]

feb 9

[versed flint]

If i got deferred from EA, do i still have chance for Ross?

Or do i have to get in first?

[silver herald]

You have to get in lsa first

[pale quarry]

you need to get into your choice of college first (whether it be LSA, kinematics, music, etc)

only if you get into that college can you get into ross

i believe thats how it works

[inland gulch]

.

[exotic stone]

damn ur in east quad?

see u tonight

[glad sleet]

aye i submitted in continued interest form

[kind scaffold]

pretty quick eh

[kind scaffold]

im not doing ross, but like what if you get deferred?

got a buddy who was deferred, does his ross admission get narrowed down to only a deferral/rejection? or is the entire admission put on hold?

someone's prolly alr asked this but yea

[glad sleet]

i had it pre written LOL

[pale veldt]

LOL im working equad tn

youll see my poor ass working

[kind scaffold]

lol

[silver herald]

from my understanding, he won't get a Ross admission in Feb. If he gets admitted to lsa in March/April, he'll get his Ross decision after. If no lsa admission, no Ross admission

[kind scaffold]

yea i thought so. will be the latter option then

[exotic stone]

oh

[exotic stone]

LMAO

😭 😭 😭

gotta do what u gotta do

[fresh pebble]

Everyone and their mother is getting into umich wtf

[gleaming nest]

💀

[worn plank]

Deferral admit rate of 5%

[manic verge]

any chance, applying t/o engineering rd

or am i being delusional

[turbid stone]

Where to get this info

[paper marsh]

well ur chance is 0% if u don’t apply

[left gyro]

ok so apparently Lsa reusable scholarships are not application based this year!!!

We get scholarship offers

Yay

[neat pawn]

did anyone else get an email from their AO that was like really sweet lmao😭

[shadow basin]

Nope, did you?

[neat pawn]

actually lowkey should not share that online but it was either personal or for first gen applicants i think

[worldly pivot]

that just mean more people are considered

u shouldn't be happy

[frosty yew]

joever for you

early action people got all the advantage last year

cuz they got considered first since they put in their apps

less likely now

💀

[left gyro]

Oh

I looked at it and immediately thought yay no addtl app no essay great

[steep wren]

heyo mich ppl, as a cs at lsa is it easy to double major in ross?

[frosty yew]

idk did you get into ross

[steep wren]

i only applied cs

[frosty yew]

oh good luck cuz you are gonna have to get into ross

💀

cant just major

even the minor is selective

[cloud crest]

anyone know when I should submit the umich LOCI

[wet imp]

Before march 8th

[cloud crest]

is submitting it earlier bebetter?

[wet imp]

No

[steep wren]

is ross useful for a career interest in startups

i feel like that typa thing dont rlly need a bba or mba

moreso focused on the tech background (cs)

[worldly pivot]

U don’t need a degree to start one

Unless u mean working for one

[steep wren]

i mean just to start one

i used to think that this would teach u some important management skils

[worldly pivot]

Yea u don’t need a degree

[steep wren]

is a degree then not going to make a significant difference

[worldly pivot]

I would focus on both since 1.u haven’t started one 2.you’re not sure if it’s gonna work out

[steep wren]

u mean to still go for a business degree?

or just in general a college degree

[worldly pivot]

What would ur startup be about?

Cs or business degree would be fine

[steep wren]

havent thought much abt any startup yet, just planning on figuring out all that stuff when i enter college and network with peeps

[left gyro]

What’s the admit package like

[neat pawn]

does umich only use css for financial aid

[fluid solar]

don't they also use fafsa?

[neat pawn]

god i can’t they just delayed it for another two months😣

[oak current]

Delayed what?

[lyric mauve]

Fafsa sending to schools

[undone token]

ok i feel like that was 2 days

its FINE now

and i actually like the snow

[pale quarry]

i touched on non-academics but i also got deferred so maybe dont take advice from me lol

[paper marsh]

yeah, most of my essay was about their academics and programs but in my last paragraph i talked about certain student orgs

but i also got deferred lol

[ancient skiff]

^ same

sucked off 2 profs and got def

[undone token]

i feel like most profs don't have any sway in undergrad admissions

only in grad

[ancient skiff]

umich does value demonstrated interest

[undone token]

lol

imma b fr idts

[ancient skiff]

the more the better i guess, as long as you dont solely list them w/o connecting back to yourself

[ancient skiff]

[latent fox]

hi, is there a discord server for prospective students

[fleet smelt]

in the LOCI, is it suggested to talk about aspecs of the university that appeal to you or do you simply focus on your accomplishments since applying

[lunar prawn]

would normally say accomplishments only preferably but it is umich so dickriding hard may appeal to them

[fluid solar]

what if I don't have any additional accomplishments than the ones I put on common app?

what should i write on my LOCI?

[fleet smelt]

grade improvements?

[lunar prawn]

#📝-essays message

[dim crag]

I’m literally procrastinating to write the loci

[fleet smelt]

[worn plank]

[worldly pivot]

[trim mango]

[shadow basin]

[left gyro]

wait what u got a letter???

havent checked the mail in a minute

[ancient skiff]

my question is how do you yap for 1k words

[neat pawn]

my first half was a little about like an ec and my background and the rest was programs/academic’s

[crimson blade]

like an email not a letter

[hushed mortar]

my friend who got into mit was deferred from umich coe sigh

[hushed mortar]

i haven't gotten one 😔 my admissions counselor doesn't care smh smh

[left gyro]

didnt get one either

[crimson blade]

im pretty sure its just my specific admissions counselor sending it to all the people in our area

[hushed mortar]

ohhhh i see

i had to email my admissions counselor way back bcs i messed up my courses (my counselor told us to put down the wrong thing LMAO we were all so pissed) and he seemed pissed that i emailed him 😭

[neat pawn]

me😭 the one from your regional AO right?

[crimson blade]

LOL yea

[neat pawn]

smth like congrats it was a pleasure reviewing AZ applications and you should be proud for standing out feel free to reach out for any questions on next steps

😭

[crimson blade]

hey at least we got in though

[shadow basin]

Yeah

Did anyone get an email for an honors program

[hushed mortar]

yep i think they send that to all admitted

[uncut delta]

I got admitted and they havent even sent one email to me lol

[hushed mortar]

not even the scholarship one? i think they sent a reminder to lsa admitted that was like "yay you don't have to apply for lsa 4 year renewable"

[shadow basin]

They haven’t sent it to me

[shadow basin]

Oh okay

[uncut delta]

prolly cause I did CS

got into college of engineering

and I am waiting for the advanced selection

result

[hushed mortar]

oh truth truth that's prob why. congrats tho coe is hard!

[uncut delta]

thanks man

[manic verge]

is 500 words enough for the essay

or should i add the 50 words

[hushed mortar]

is that for ur loci or smth else

[neon zephyr]

[hushed mortar]

lol like a third of ur grade applied to umich 😭 that's a really high accepted rate tho

[neon zephyr]

💀

the 50%->11% pipeline

well played to the bastards at my school

dividing the acceptance rate to umich by a factor of fucking five in just three years

[fresh pebble]

wait mich is due tomorrow at 11:59 right

[fierce crane]

no march 8th

oh

yeah for rd

my bad

[tropic furnace]

on the website they list 3 seperate dates for ross decisions, how do we know which one we’ll recieve our decision on?

like if it was 2 I would assume its ea/rd but there’s 3 dates so I’m not really sure how that works

[dawn spoke]

i love michigan so much but i have such a bad superiority complex, so like 5 other kids got in from my school and its just ruined for me now

like i dont want to go to a school others have gotten into. this is so bad im trying ot change

[wintry valve]

💀

[pale veldt]

bro 💀

80 people from my high school got into michigan

and im still here

its fun

i dont mind the other 79 people cos frankly 1. i dont see them, 2. i have my own life and i enjoy it here and 3. only 30 people ended up going

[proven gazelle]

[pale veldt]

[analog veldt]

[pale veldt]

hey i mean you do you

[agile reef]

indiana’s carmel high school is huge

[wintry valve]

could be nyc metro

[analog veldt]

idek why my school is so huge lmao 😭 we're in a pretty normal area

[pale veldt]

you just went like "i have a class size of 1k but im not in any of the places with schools that big"

[analog veldt]

nah i said i'm not new england

[agile reef]

mason high school in ohio has 3.5k students

[analog veldt]

ik 😭 that was the point

[pale veldt]

nyc isnt new england btw

[wintry valve]

ny is not new england 💀

[agile reef]

like there’s a lot of big schools in the midwest

[analog veldt]

bro knows the wildest high schools

[analog veldt]

[wintry valve]

ive had texas people know my school 💀

[agile reef]

[analog veldt]

oh i meant that i'm not from the northeast then i guess
i thought new england also included new york and pennsylvania

[pale veldt]

oh okay slay debate sucks anyways

[agile reef]

right

[pale veldt]

oh penn is wayyy off

[wintry valve]

honestly i can understand people thinking new york is new england but PA is crazy

[pale veldt]

i understand ny, but penn is a mile away

[analog veldt]

or am i confusing new england with all the breadbasket states or wtv we called them

[agile reef]

yeah

[pale veldt]

LOL i think u just think new england is northeast

[wintry valve]

um

breadbasket is like

midwest

[agile reef]

hold on lemme google

[analog veldt]

[wintry valve]

whatever part kansas is a part of

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/861013396677591050.gif?size=60&quality=lossless

idk if thats a good thing

[pale veldt]

LOL

[analog veldt]

bruh the gif didn't embed >:(

[pale veldt]

i think the funniest thing about telling people 80 people got accepted my year into umich is that it was one of the low years too

[wintry valve]

skill issue for my school

;-;

[pale veldt]

we did pretty bad my year :')

in 2020 we had like a 50% acceptance rate into mich and i was like whut.

[analog veldt]

thats wild

[pale veldt]

yea i hate my school

[analog veldt]

i would call my school strong for having quite a bit of amazing acceptances every year

[pale veldt]

shit school

[analog veldt]

BUT

[wintry valve]

dont suppose u guys are a cornell feeder maybe

[analog veldt]

it's more just power in the numbers

[pale veldt]

we are a cornell feeder ? how did you know

[analog veldt]

rather than actual school strength

bro knows ur school now

[wintry valve]

if u actually are i kinda assumed

[pale veldt]

LMFAOO

[wintry valve]

if u send so many to umich

[agile reef]

we alw have ab 20-30 kids going to t20s

[wintry valve]

u gotta send a bunch to cornell and nyu

[pale veldt]

oh yea we are a cornell and nyu feeder

[wintry valve]

LMAO

[agile reef]

osu feeder 😕

[pale veldt]

LMFAOO

stony brook feeder too

[agile reef]

i have ab 500 kids in my grad class tho

[pale veldt]

if cornell counts i think we got like. 200 ish t20 acceptances?

[agile reef]

DAMN

[pale veldt]

if cornell doesnt count that number like halves

[wintry valve]

LMAO

[analog veldt]

wth

[agile reef]

dear god

[analog veldt]

casual ny public school

i actually have a few friends at ny public schools

[pale veldt]

i didnt count umich btw

[agile reef]

Damn!

[analog veldt]

i should ask them which school exactly

[pale veldt]

also a lot of people who get accepted into like harvard and shit also get into cornell so that screws up the numbers a lot

but i think my year had like 8-10 people mit, but i heard this year we got like 10 to mit EA

idk thats just rumors

[analog veldt]

thats crazy

[wintry valve]

ur school sounds insane

[analog veldt]

you said ny?

or nj

[pale veldt]

ny public schools go hard

[analog veldt]

okay ny

[wintry valve]

we're also a ny public school but not nearly that crazy

[pale veldt]

ny private schools go hard too

[analog veldt]

nah bcs i know a crazy school in nj which has similar mit ea numbers

[pale veldt]

but i dont have to pay for my school tho

[analog veldt]

they're probably even more crazy lol

[lofty stirrup]

Does it matter how many areas of interest I choose to apply for umich?

[pale veldt]

probably not

its hard to tell

[lofty stirrup]

so if i get rejected from one

would they give me anotehr chance?

[analog veldt]

i put three 💀

[lofty stirrup]

or how does it work

[pale veldt]

wait i dont think you can get rejected from one

[analog veldt]

idk how they evaluate those areas of interest

[wintry valve]

if this is for lsa i think u go in undecided anyways right?

[pale veldt]

yea you do

[lofty stirrup]

oh okay

[wintry valve]

or is this for the special things

[analog veldt]

you just get into the college i think?

[lofty stirrup]

oh okay

[pale veldt]

yea

[wintry valve]

like the cs/ross/whatever

[pale veldt]

fuck ross

[lofty stirrup]

[pale veldt]

why do their clubs have a stupid ass applciation

[analog veldt]

heh

[pale veldt]

like bro this is the common app all over again

[analog veldt]

thats why you actually end up going to a small school

[wintry valve]

the AUDACITY 🙄

[pale veldt]

but this time theres two interviews

[analog veldt]

so y'all arent competing for club spots 💀

i still find it crazy that theres competition for clubs at places like harvard

[pale veldt]

nah cos like ross is small

but like

[analog veldt]

can't even pursue your passions bruh 💀

[pale veldt]

there should be no reason why i need to submit an applciation, get accepted for a first round interview, get accepted into a SECOND round interview, AND THEN POSSIBLY get in

and thats just consulting clubs, finance and biz frats are so much worse

[wintry valve]

sounds like FUN

[pale veldt]

maybe i should drop out and play games and stream on twitch

jk i cant do that

[wintry valve]

if ya dont mind me asking what major r ya

[deep elm]

UMich is infamous for the deferrals ngl

[fleet smelt]

[worldly pivot]

[deep elm]

waitlist acceptance rate last year was 5%

different from that 0.5% lol

[grave temple]

Fr?

[worldly pivot]

yes. like i get the deadline says March 8th but u can't guarantee they don't look at ur application beforehand

[crude marsh]

is it rolling

[analog veldt]

not rolling but late march/early april

[crude marsh]

2 months from now damn

[pale veldt]

its always the last friday of march at 3pm

i think the funniest thing tho is that umich comes out after ivy day this year 💀

they did the same thing last year too

[oak current]

i think duke and stanford do too

[pale veldt]

people were like "who does umich think they are 😠 😠 "

[oak current]

im gonna go 0-4 on ivy day

[pale veldt]

duke usually comes out on ivy day, it was last year where they didnt have it come out on ivy day

stanford comes out the day after

there was one day when stanford came out on april fools which i find really funny

[oak current]

!ivyday

[dusk dock]

Ivy Day Decision Date

Ivy Day decisions come out <t:1711666800:F> in your local time
1 month, 27 days and 16 hours until the decision date

ApplyingToCollege

[oak current]

almost 2 months

holy

therees a huge gap between my EA and RD decisions

[fleet smelt]

are you sure we should immediately? i was thinking maybe in 1-2 weeks

[pale veldt]

i would just submit it

what if ur app gets reviewed before u submit ur loci?

while ur decisions might come out in march, theres no telling when ur app gets reviewed

my ross decision came out in february, but when i checked my admissions portfolio their date was two weeks prior to decisions coming out (basically right after i got into LSA)

[mental moss]

[pale veldt]

maybe

[mental moss]

what did stuy do to yall

[pale veldt]

cos its a shit school

they literally had a cheating scandal on the news

[mental moss]

they do kinda feed hard tho 🤷‍♂️

[pale veldt]

nah cos thats cos stuy kids are tryhards

and even if they are tryhards they still cant feed more to mit 😂 😂

[mental moss]

😭

[pale veldt]

or umich for that matter

ive met more btech kids here than stuy kids

[mental moss]

cause stuy are all in ivys LOL

my brother got accepted to 6/8 ivys

when he was stuy

[pale veldt]

ross LOL

[mental moss]

NAH BRO HATES THEIR OWN SCHOOL

THATS CRAZY

[pale veldt]

nah cos i cant be exposing myself

there might be opps here

[pale veldt]

nah ross is j a different breed

im fgli, and like 99% of ross is economonically more priviledged than me

and like, sometimes it shows

[mental moss]

damn thats rough..

[pale veldt]

yea fuck them ross kids

nah cos ross kids are nice, but some do have an ego

[mental moss]

but its aight THE FINANCIAL AID GONNA PULL THROUGH (if i get in), AND IMA BUY MYSELF A CANADA GOOSE JACKET TO SURVIVE THE COLD

[exotic stone]

is ross super competitive

and cutthroat

[mental moss]

yeah

[pale veldt]

financial aid pulled through for me

[mental moss]

its business

[pale veldt]

and people get jealous that i got finaid and im just like "bro you make like 5x my yearly income like stop"

anyway good luck yall i heard the first wave is in a week

[mental moss]

Nah I did regular decision Im cooked LOL

[exotic stone]

not all b schools are like that

anyway i like competition

[mental moss]

yeah same

hence why i did deca and stuff

[pale veldt]

basically all top b schools are like that

[exotic stone]

thats true

[pale veldt]

wharton, ross, stern are the big ones

[exotic stone]

do you know about emory's b school

goizueta

[pale veldt]

i would include haas and tepper in this but cs got them on a chokehold already

all ik is that its p good

i didnt apply to emory

i was not about to go down south

[exotic stone]

😔

[pale veldt]

[pale veldt]

itsok i didnt get in either

i rd'd stern teehee

[mental moss]

damn

nah i def am gonna transfer to stern

even if i dont get in

like I cant see myself living outside of the metro area

[pale veldt]

[mental moss]

financial aid

in state

[pale veldt]

nyu is private

they dont have in state tuition

[exotic stone]

[pale veldt]

nyu also doesnt give fin aid to transfers

so regardless ur paying 90k as a transfer student

probably touchiing 100k by next year

[exotic stone]

jeez louis

[mental moss]

damn

[pale veldt]

and say you get an IB job out of college, cos thats the only thing that stern is good for, you make like 150k a year, it takes you 2 years to pay off ur debt WITHOUT interest if you dont use any money at ALL throughout the year

[mental moss]

im trying to do IB tho 😔

[exotic stone]

but ross also places amazing with ib

and WAY better in consulting

stern for consulting is bad

[pale veldt]

[placid ruin]

I've been trying to find info on how Regular Decision is rolled out. I know in previous years they've done a once a month, but that was partially because of covid. Is there any solid information about when they release the decisions outside of the posted final decisions by early April?

[knotty sinew]

[worldly pivot]

there's a lot of bus that go from north to central

[worldly pivot]

[knotty sinew]

[vast bramble]

Does filling out the LSA scholarship application give you a better shot even though it says all accepted students are automatically considered?

[neat pawn]

it was just like congratulating us and she gave me her phone number and said like “you should be proud for standing out from 64k people” LMAO

i’m pretty sure she sent it to everyone from az that got in but i think some admissions officers don’t do it

[mental moss]

[vast plank]

[worldly pivot]

4 year scholarships are no longer apart of the lsa scholarship application but there are other ones for u

[vast bramble]

[worldly pivot]

U know what’s fun? Having no Friday classes 😎

[left gyro]

YES

im dual enrolled and did this this sem

and its lovely

extra time to do hw and go out

[zinc pollen]

Advanced selection.. how many of yall got CS?

[vast bramble]

Lemme go check

Pray for me

[shadow mist]

did it come out?

"Your decision for advance selection for the computer science major has been postponed. A decision will be provided by early April. This does not affect your admission to your primary University of Michigan college. "

does this mean i got deferred?

[vast bramble]

Got it 😻😻

[zinc pollen]

you got cs? congrats

[zinc pollen]

i believe so

[vast bramble]

Yes thank you

[shadow basin]

Yeah I got the same as well, do we have to write them a loci?

[shadow basin]

Congrats bro

[rose slate]

if u rlly weant in yes

and its gotta be rlly good

[shadow basin]

Do you know what’s normally the acceptance rate of the advanced cs selection

[inland gulch]

Yes what is it )

[rose slate]

tbh no clue what that or what it would be

ik the acceptance rate after defferal is like 190

10%

[copper wraith]

i applied rd but i can still send a loci in the portal should i do it

[rose slate]

No clue

[rose slate]

Would certainly stand out if you mentioned that though

Might benefit you tbh

[frosty yew]

Did u get it?

[nova siren]

Has anyone got the portal yet or have their thing day “downloaded by college”?

[oak current]

How hard is it to go from LSA to COE

[vast bramble]

From what I've seen its not too difficult as long as u arent trying to go into coe CS

[oak current]

Can I dm u

[manic verge]

Umich took like a good week or two when I submitted early

[crimson blade]

does anyone know

if the ross acceptance rate

is including students already admitted to LSA

like after getting into LSA is the admit rate so low?

according to their website "This year, our application volume for the Direct Admission/Preferred Admission process was approximately 8,680 total applications, which is up slightly from 8,328 in 2020-21. It is worth noting that before the University of Michigan went test-flexible in 2020, our application volume was roughly 6,000."

but theres no way that number of 8680 is kids who applied were admitted and did prefer admit to ross

[fast galleon]

Let’s not

[inland gulch]

Around how many kids apply to cs advanced selection and how many get in ?

[oak current]

Nobody knows I think

But I think worst case I’ll transfer to COE and do CE

[manic verge]

Can I transfer into COE from LSA?

Or is that like a nono

[oak current]

I’m p sure

I think as long as u meet requirements

Correct me if I’m wrong

It’s not super difficult

[frosty yew]

why not just do DS

[oak current]

Idk I feel like CE is better

R u doing DS

[zinc pollen]

Postponed 😭

[frosty yew]

sadge

i got postponed and rejected

:p

[shadow basin]

So since I got my decision for cs postponed, how would I send them a loci if they haven’t asked for it? Or should I just update them with new information by email.

[oak current]

Email probably

[hardy lichen]

Anyone’s waiting for Ross decision (that are already accepted by LSA)?

[left gyro]

I think Ross comes out later they posted it on their website

[silver herald]

feb 9 i think

[hardy lichen]

Ahhh im just curious how many ppl in this server applied

I do know the decision date

[rose slate]

Guys wtf is this

[glad sleet]

When does umich rd come out?

[raven pine]

I think last Friday of March

[undone token]

just got this piece of information from my friend who is a campus tour guide (aka technically with the school of admissions): the only way the University of Michigan considers demostrated interest is through your why michigan essay

attending campus tours, doing a summer program, etc all do not factor in

[sly torrent]

Did anyone just get the email about financial aid

[left gyro]

No

[sly torrent]

hmm

[trim mango]

in my LOCI to mich, can i include that im interested in switching my intended major to smth else within the school ive already applied to or does that seem like im "cheating" admissions if yk what i mean

[acoustic dagger]

Yeah, about FAFSA right

[sly torrent]

yes

[acoustic dagger]

That it’s missing ?

[sly torrent]

yea that and CSS household B (divorced parents)

[acoustic dagger]

The weird thing is that I actually did the FAFSA so I js emailed them

[sly torrent]

Yea I also did it but I haven’t gotten it reviewed yet

[acoustic dagger]

No one is getting review until mid march

[radiant hawk]

Has Michigan sent out aid offers yet?

[hushed mortar]

somewhere they said scholarship decisions will come otu by 4/15

[hardy lichen]

Do we have to apply for it??? Is it available to internationals?

[hushed mortar]

i only know that everyone applying to lsa is automatically considered for 4 year renewable. here's the page for international lsa https://lsa.umich.edu/scholarships/prospective-students/international-students.html if your'e in a different college i can try finding their scholarship page too

idk if international is eligible for 4 year renewable bcs i only looked into domestic sorry 😔

[hardy lichen]

Ohh its fine, thank you for the info very much!!!!!

[nova siren]

whats the letter of continued interest poeple are talking about for mich?

[fluid solar]

it's just what it sounds like... a letter to show your continued interest

basically highlight what "improvements" or updates you have since november

[trim mango]

is there a deadline for the loci or no

[oak current]

not a hard deadline

depends on college tho

[trim mango]

yeah for mich i mean

[oak current]

prolly march ish

March 8 actually

[pale veldt]

4 days until ross's first round

anyone waiting ?

[trim mango]

thanks!!

[left gyro]

nooooo

#liberalarts

[pale veldt]

real

lsa > ross

but ross gave me a fatass scholarship so i can't complain

[golden terrace]

Was it merit if you don’t mind me asking? Or financial aid?

[vague dew]

for rd applicants
