Harvey Mudd (2023-2024)

[gloomy spoke]

lmao

[molten needle]

I only know the schools I applied to

[patent zinc]

Idk why I even applied to hmc like it’s prob my favorite school but my chance is so low

Ig why not

[molten needle]

I applied to HMC, because its like Olin

and I like Olin

[patent zinc]

I want to do CS idk if olin has that

Idk I didn’t apply

[gloomy spoke]

they dont

dam bruh 3 majors

[molten needle]

They do actually

it is engineering with a cs specialization

which is not a computer engineering

it is CS

[topaz widget]

Stats?

[molten needle]

there are 3 concentrations in the engineering degree

but yes

only 3 majors

because only 400 students

[gloomy spoke]

i can dm them

[patent zinc]

Where was your ed to

[gloomy spoke]

hmc

:(

[patent zinc]

And you got rejected?

[blissful veldt]

im doing rd hmc

[gloomy spoke]

sadly

[patent zinc]

Like you didn’t get deferred?

[molten needle]

I didn't want to ED HMC

[gloomy spoke]

no

[molten needle]

because of Olin

[blissful veldt]

ok like idk what are they finding in the essays

[molten needle]

and good thing I didn't because of MIT

[patent zinc]

Yeah idk if you’re getting in RD lol

[gloomy spoke]

yea ik i thought my essays were good

[gloomy spoke]

aw man

[blissful veldt]

ok for the first essay i talked about my math youtube and how making a creative video about math motivated me to do similar things in the future(building a math community that encourages creativity and enjoyment)

[gloomy spoke]

dam

thats pretty good

[blissful veldt]

and the second essay i talked about how i want to take an english class thats motivates thinking outside of the box

but idk

[topaz widget]

Sure I’m just worried

[gloomy spoke]

mine was abt how stargazing got me into stem+humanities

[topaz widget]

Mine was about Minecraft help >w>

[patent zinc]

Can you me too

[molten needle]

I'm getting into mudd

I trust the process

[blissful veldt]

how were you guys's interviews

[molten needle]

I didn't have one

[blissful veldt]

i think mine was oretty good

but idk how much will it help

[patent zinc]

Huh

[molten needle]

I trust the process

[patent zinc]

Didn’t interview

[molten needle]

what can I say

[patent zinc]

I trust the process but I don’t think that’ll get me into hmc

[molten needle]

trust harder

[patent zinc]

Noted

It’s in like 4 hrs right

[molten needle]

I don't believe in time

but yes

[tender solar]

bro yall had interviews?!

😭

[gloomy spoke]

yea

u have to book them urself lmao

[tender solar]

oh

was it on the portal or smth

[gloomy spoke]

no its on an interview page

https://connect.hmc.edu/portal/hmc-interview

[tender solar]

did you get emailed to schedule an interview

i didnt even know

there was one

💀

[gloomy spoke]

https://www.hmc.edu/admission/connect/interviews/

[gloomy spoke]

no i read their site lmao

[tender solar]

demonstrated interest

[gloomy spoke]

i was very interested

😔

[plucky wagon]

i didnt even know there was an interview

[molten needle]

I think they are non evaluational but I could be wrong

[tender solar]

it would probably still contribute to demonstrated interest though

[supple ferry]

harvey mudd doesn't consider demonstrated interest according to their Common Data Set

but they do consider the interview

They are evaluative

https://www.hmc.edu/institutional-research/wp-content/uploads/sites/42/2024/02/CDS-2023-2024-Complete.pdf

Look at Page 20

[molten needle]

well all I can do is hope

HMC is one of the very few schools I'd consider over MIT

[worldly halo]

hmc over mit?

[supple ferry]

bro can you not 💀

[molten needle]

sorry

[compact flume]

how come?

[gloomy spoke]

nah id agree tbh

[past plover]

whay why

[lost fog]

it's called having taste guys

there's a certain community that appeals to certain types of people

harvey mudd probably has that appeal for a2h

[hot relic]

hm time left

[worldly halo]

less than an hour

[molten needle]

Its a small hands on focused engineering school

[past plover]

are you being fr

[supple ferry]

4440 applied in 2022
4792 applied in 2023
~5200 applied in 2024?

[molten needle]

?

[supple ferry]

thats my estimate

[molten needle]

yes

[supple ferry]

they have a grand total of 12 majors (STEM only)

but they love to see people also in humanitites and arts too

[molten needle]

4x more than my top choice had

[supple ferry]

3 majors? Which 3 lol

[molten needle]

Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering

[light berry]

whats RD acceptance rate

[molten needle]

100%

we are all getting in

[light berry]

lmao

[past plover]

im getting rejected

my application is incomplete LMAO

[supple ferry]

what are you missing?

[past plover]

a letter of rec from humanities

[plucky wagon]

wtf u have to request the interview

we may be cooked chat

[supple ferry]

yeah i didnt know they had an interview 💀

[plucky wagon]

ah well

we take these

[supple ferry]

but on the Common Data Set it is listed as "considered" and not "important" or "very important"

so i think we will be fine tbh

[plucky wagon]

well im probably still getting rejected

they probably take like 3 applicants from the entire state of NY

[supple ferry]

bro im more fcked than you 💀

im in MA

[plucky wagon]

all ive got is some leadership and a good sat

[past plover]

whats acceptance rate for cs

[plucky wagon]

probably low

i swear for a school this small acceptance rate isn't even relevant

it's just like

[supple ferry]

^ this

like there are only 12 majors

[plucky wagon]

it's like winning the lottery

no one worries about the percentage

[cinder birch]

did anyone apply cs and physics

[plucky wagon]

if you win u got lucky

[supple ferry]

ive not been winnin so far today

rejected from washu

[plucky wagon]

yup

JHU wl for me

did not catch a dub there

[cinder birch]

i havent been winning in general

[plucky wagon]

only non-safety accept so far for me is gtech

[molten needle]

oh only gtech

[supple ferry]

yea i got deferred there lol

[cinder birch]

yo congrats what major

[molten needle]

lmfao

gtech is amazing dude

don't say only gtech

[plucky wagon]

yeah nono i got lucky with gtech

[molten needle]

there are people in the MIT and CMU discord who got rejected from GT

[plucky wagon]

im just saying i have 1 non-safety option rn

[plucky wagon]

EE

[gloomy spoke]

what time is mudd for yall

[supple ferry]

9 PM for me

[molten needle]

9pm

[cinder birch]

6 pm for me

[plucky wagon]

im convinced they accepted me by accident my essay had a full on typo

[gloomy spoke]

est or pst?

[plucky wagon]

like half finished sentence

[supple ferry]

im EST

[plucky wagon]

not even a tiny typo

[supple ferry]

6 PM PST
9 PM EST

[molten needle]

GT accepted me and I wrote my essay about the wrong major

[plucky wagon]

💀 hoping it bodes well for ivy day

[gloomy spoke]

so 30 min?

[supple ferry]

ya

[cinder birch]

bro just accept the win and move on

[plucky wagon]

maybe they dont care that much about the essays??

[cinder birch]

trust guys we are all gonna get in

[supple ferry]

i swear they dont lmao

[molten needle]

I trust

[supple ferry]

they actually dont care

[molten needle]

I don't think GT actually reads essays

[supple ferry]

my essay was so shit but i got deferred oos cs somehow

Lol

[molten needle]

from my experience

[plucky wagon]

lmfao

[molten needle]

I got in OOS CS writing about civil engineering

for my essay

[cinder birch]

nah dont say that i put so much effort into my gtech essay

[plucky wagon]

that's crazy

[molten needle]

I mean it was gramatically fine

but if you read it you'd know that I gave 0 fucks about GT

[plucky wagon]

im oos as well and had a sentence that was just "from this experience i learned"

and no conclusion

[supple ferry]

Gtech admissions officiers are actually so severely unpaid

[plucky wagon]

like

that sentence was half finished

[supple ferry]

i tried to contact them about an award

[plucky wagon]

i did not write what i learned

[supple ferry]

and they never picked up the phone

lmao

[plucky wagon]

just left it hanging

[supple ferry]

they just left me hanging

[plucky wagon]

idk how it happened

[supple ferry]

for like 30 minutes

[plucky wagon]

😭

[cinder birch]

oh my god same

[plucky wagon]

i think mudd is my last decision before ivy day

[cinder birch]

i gave up and hung up the phone

[supple ferry]

they didnt reply to my email either lol

i just ended up calling them on a different day and it worked

[plucky wagon]

was supposed to get cmu but mfs won't give me a decision

[cinder birch]

i didnt realize act was mandatory so I called to let them know that I sent in my scores seperately and like they just would not pick up

[supple ferry]

i got tufts, cmu (supposedly?), and GTech this friday

[plucky wagon]

mudd is test required?

[supple ferry]

and maybe Rice

[supple ferry]

i dont think so?

[plucky wagon]

are u in the same cmu boat lmao

[cinder birch]

no lol

[supple ferry]

yeah lmao

[plucky wagon]

i swear their AOs are incompetent

[supple ferry]

i dont care anymore tbh

[plucky wagon]

OH gtech my bad

[cinder birch]

its a california school so most people wont submit

like me!

[plucky wagon]

i think so far i have been carried by my sat

[plucky wagon]

me too

the only reason i was interested is cause it came out before ivy day but if they can't be bothered to give me a decision then whatever

[patent zinc]

Most schools say considered

[patent zinc]

I think like 50% are TO lol

[plucky wagon]

how did yall hear about mudd

[patent zinc]

College book

Visited and it seemed very cool

[supple ferry]

i heard mudd from one of their math professors

he seemed extremely cool

and then i did more research

[cinder birch]

kinda random but my mom went to a party and met someone's son who went there and forced me to apply. but like afterwords I researched it and thought it was pretty cool

[supple ferry]

like 99% of the world doesnt know about HMC tho lol

[patent zinc]

Only college visit I went on where I was super interested just from the vibe, crazy different from other places

[cinder birch]

i didnt think I would be so invested in my decision but here we are

[supple ferry]

which i mean

is a good thing? maybe?

[plucky wagon]

had an online friend who applied last year and that's the only reason i know abt it

live on the opposite side of the country

[cinder birch]

i know its crazy i told my friends my decision was coming out and none of them knew the school

[plucky wagon]

i had a friend who visited last year and he was saying they do like 80 hours of homework per week??

[scarlet falcon]

how competitive is it to get in?

[cinder birch]

nah wtf

[supple ferry]

its still extremely hard

13%

[plucky wagon]

whats the oos

anyone know

[scarlet falcon]

greatttt 💔💔

[cinder birch]

so what other colleges did yall apply too

[scarlet falcon]

isn’t it same bc it’s private

[supple ferry]

i dont think they care about oos or not

as much

[plucky wagon]

so many reaches

so many

[supple ferry]

they are a very small private school

[cinder birch]

^^

[scarlet falcon]

i have gt and usc this week 🙏

[plucky wagon]

🙏

[scarlet falcon]

hbu

[cinder birch]

bro same actually

same lineup

[scarlet falcon]

twinz

i also have williams

[supple ferry]

man bro

i wish everyone best of luck

[scarlet falcon]

but tbh idk anything abt williams

u too 🙏

[plucky wagon]

atp all i've got left is ivies stanford duke vanderbilt cmu

[supple ferry]

college decisions are just so

💀

[plucky wagon]

besides harvey

[supple ferry]

brain rot

[cinder birch]

u just reminded me that I even applied to stanford

blocked that shit out of my mind

[plucky wagon]

FR BRO I KEEP FORGETTING

[topaz widget]

I only applied Mudd because of their beef with CalTech and they rejected me

[supple ferry]

ED?

[plucky wagon]

i will like tell ppl what schools i applied to and it doesn't add up to the right number

[topaz widget]

No

[plucky wagon]

and then im like oh right stanford

[topaz widget]

Mudd RD

[supple ferry]

Ohh i see

Oh i understand now

[cinder birch]

nah yeah i have like such little hope

[plucky wagon]

wait howd u get ur decision

[supple ferry]

Idk but HMC is pretty small lol

they dont wanna get beefed up with caltech

[cinder birch]

what major did u guys apply

[supple ferry]

CS

[plucky wagon]

caltech is like the same size tbf

[plucky wagon]

EE

[scarlet falcon]

cs too

[molten needle]

engineering

making of the engine

to engine

the engine

[cinder birch]

ew cs majors (cs + physics)

[molten needle]

pure cs

[plucky wagon]

mit kid wanna withdraw 🙏

[supple ferry]

i wouldve applied to a CS + Music

[molten needle]

withdraw from HMC?

no

[supple ferry]

but they dont have a music major

[molten needle]

I like HMC

[plucky wagon]

tragic

[cinder birch]

wait that was a thing

[supple ferry]

like a double major

or smthing

[cinder birch]

ohh thats kinda cool

[supple ferry]

because music is my other EC

and like my music ECs are better than my CS ones lol

[plucky wagon]

my ECs are so scattered

[supple ferry]

caltech has 2463 and HMC has 911 students

its mainly cause Caltech has grad students too

[cinder birch]

do u guys know how important the essay is for HMC

[plucky wagon]

like i do so much different stuff

[molten needle]

My ECs are so stacked, but for the wrong major

[molten needle]

very

[plucky wagon]

o damn

and i thought caltech was small

[cinder birch]

me like I should've been a math major

but i hate math

[supple ferry]

i mean they are pretty small

relative to other colleges

[patent zinc]

Like my other college visits were all basically the same but my hmc guy was funny, made tons of great jokes, told us about interesting stuff at hmc, people messed with him and shit as we walked around, was just really cool seeing how he seemed to be friends with everybody

[plucky wagon]

my HMC essays lowkey banged

[molten needle]

bro does no research into where he applies

[plucky wagon]

i did no research into HMC

literally 0

[patent zinc]

Like it was basically what you expect of a small college, very tight knit

[plucky wagon]

all my research i did afterwards

[cinder birch]

bro one of my essays was kinda goated but the other one was like mid because they only gave me a 100 words

like tf can i even write for a 100 words

[plucky wagon]

the class one?

did yall make up a class

[cinder birch]

yeah the class one

[plucky wagon]

or do an existing one

[supple ferry]

i loved the 100 word essay because it was very interesting

and creative

[cinder birch]

yeah but mine was kinda lame ngl

[plucky wagon]

they had this class already that like perfectly fits me so i just went with it

[solar pier]

HYPE

I BELIEVE IN U A2H

[cinder birch]

15 min guys!

[plucky wagon]

for the yale prompt i made up a class and i swear that shit is indecipherable

like my class is stupid

it doesn't make any sense

[gleaming mulch]

Does this come out in 15

[plucky wagon]

my HMC essay is so much better

[supple ferry]

my class talks about classical music like mahler and stravinsky

[cinder birch]

i hope they care more about the other essay ngl

[plucky wagon]

me too

[supple ferry]

prolly will

the other essay is like a misison statement

[scarlet falcon]

what class did u guys choose or make

[supple ferry]

the second essay tests more your creative side

[plucky wagon]

harvey is the only application portal i dont have bookmarked

idk why

[cinder birch]

shit some bullshit which combined cs and english

[supple ferry]

is it cause it takes a while to get into the actual portal

lol

[molten needle]

prolly because they made the most painful portal ever

[plucky wagon]

true

[supple ferry]

Duo

[cinder birch]

i hate duo

[plucky wagon]

me omw to spend 20 minutes getting into my hmc portal to access my rejection letter

[supple ferry]

FR

idk man

[molten needle]

the fucking 10 security questions

[cinder birch]

REAL

[supple ferry]

im feelin that hot rejection

🌶️

[molten needle]

why were there 10 mandatory security questions

[cinder birch]

i rly need this one ngl

[plucky wagon]

FR BRO

[molten needle]

and why was my answer to all of them [redacted]

[plucky wagon]

like who is trying to steal my HMC login

[supple ferry]

that rejection is after me

[plucky wagon]

i swear no one cares

like if you want my HMC login that bad you can have it

[patent zinc]

Bro you didn’t have to do 10 it was min like 2

[supple ferry]

im gonna steal your acceptance 😈

hhehehehehhahah

[solar pier]

i wan

[cinder birch]

watch ur back @plucky wagon

[solar pier]

gimme ur hmc login!!!

[zenith parcel]

when is harvey mudd coming out again

ill have the poll up

[supple ferry]

in 12 minutes

[patent zinc]

Like 10 min

[cinder birch]

6 pm pst

[zenith parcel]

thank you

[plucky wagon]

😭

[patent zinc]

My prediction 1 will be accepted and rest here rejected

[supple ferry]

dont make the CMU kids get in here

[plucky wagon]

guys duo isn't working

[cinder birch]

its gonna be me guys

[plucky wagon]

accurate

[supple ferry]

until i steal your login info

[patent zinc]

Anyone over/under 1.5 acceptances here

[cinder birch]

ur never gonna get past my 10 security questions

[patent zinc]

I’ll say under

[supple ferry]

damn it

[cinder birch]

do they even waitlist

[supple ferry]

yeah

[cinder birch]

i actually know so little about hmc lol

[molten needle]

praying for a waitlist because ik I ain't getting accepted

[plucky wagon]

me too

[plucky wagon]

nah waitlists suck

id rather be in hell than purgatory yknow

[cinder birch]

bro i got waitlisted at ucla and it sucks ass

like just reject me or sm

[molten needle]

waitlist is okay when I got my safety

[plucky wagon]

okay mit kid

[gleaming mulch]

Nah you’re getting this W no gpa man

[supple ferry]

Last year, 604 got waitlisted. 406 accepted waitlist, and 57 students got in

[plucky wagon]

57????

what

[cinder birch]

MIT is his safety

[supple ferry]

14%

[plucky wagon]

that cannot be right

wait

[supple ferry]

its right

[cinder birch]

im sorry what

[plucky wagon]

that's from the waitlist

[supple ferry]

im looking at the common data set

Yes

[cinder birch]

ohh

[plucky wagon]

i thought u meant total

[cinder birch]

i thought 57 just got in

[supple ferry]

No

[plucky wagon]

i was like i did not remember hmc being that small

[supple ferry]

Lol

[solar pier]

ez safety, he didnt even have to sweat it so true

[plucky wagon]

10 minutes gang

[supple ferry]

im gonna wait for yall to open your decisions first

[molten needle]

I'm giving myself backpain from how much I'm wreathing in my chair waiting for this decision

[supple ferry]

before opening mine

[cinder birch]

no u go first

[plucky wagon]

we gotta do the poll

thing

[solar pier]

i vote a2h first <3

[plucky wagon]

im expecting at least 1 acceptance here

would be crazy if we all got rejected

[cinder birch]

that would actually be so funny

like if all of u guys got rejected i would feel a little better

[plucky wagon]

some rando in the middle of iowa opening his hmc portal to confetti

[molten needle]

I'm going to put HMC college 28 on my alt acc to confuse people

if I get in

[cinder birch]

me stealing his log in info

[solar pier]

LMAO

[plucky wagon]

💀

[molten needle]

I should set that as my nickname in the MIT discord

to confuse people

[solar pier]

YESSSS

[molten needle]

if I get in

[solar pier]

do ittt

[cinder birch]

do it do it

[solar pier]

(if u get in)

wait no even better @molten needle u gotta make a circle

[plucky wagon]

what if i just show up on hmc campus and become such an integral part of the community that when they figure out they didn't accept me they have to just let me stay

[cinder birch]

yeah just gaslight the college into accepting u

[solar pier]

in the cmu discord "mit 28", in the mit discord "hmc 28", in the hmc discord "cmu 28"

[molten needle]

someonedid this at harvard it was a bad move

[cinder birch]

what happened?

[plucky wagon]

yeah but harvard's huge i feel like it would work better at a small college

i bet i could get myself elected class president

[patent zinc]

This is not true

[supple ferry]

look at the common data set

alright

[molten needle]

people would notice you aren't in the dorms given almost 100% of people live on campus

[dark fable]

yo

[plucky wagon]

who says i can't be in the dorms

[patent zinc]

419 accepted and 17 admitted from HMC CDS 2022-2023

[plucky wagon]

i can live in the walls

[cinder birch]

just like sneak into someones dorm everyday

[supple ferry]

did you not look at 2023-2024

[patent zinc]

Ohhh

Shit forgot what year was

[supple ferry]

lmao

[cinder birch]

[tender solar]

are we cooked yall

[solar pier]

it is with careful consideration that i have decided to reject ur rejection of me. see u next fall!

[supple ferry]

https://www.hmc.edu/institutional-research/institutional-statistics/common-data-set/

[molten needle]

maybe

[dark fable]

whats hmcs accpetance rate again? is there a stat out there i forgot

[plucky wagon]

10% i think

[gloomy spoke]

abysmal

[plucky wagon]

according to google

[molten needle]

Harvey Mudd sends me fun comics

[gloomy spoke]

[plucky wagon]

SO REAL

[molten needle]

so I think that is like basically a likely letter

[plucky wagon]

[oak pagoda]

[oak pagoda]

worst portal of all time

[hardy junco]

[oak pagoda]

REJECTED

HAD TO GO THROUGH A 19 STEP PROCESS FOR WHAT

[wild tartan]

got in!

[wild tartan]

the portal is more secure than my bank account bro

[oak pagoda]

LITERALLY

[topaz widget]

Ah rejected Harvey Mudd

[gloomy swift]

rejected oof

[gleaming mulch]

Then why’d you react 1 😂

[worldly halo]

unanimous is crazy

[torpid ruin]

same

im tryna decide between ucla and mudd rn

[gaunt basalt]

Same

Is mudd worth the price 😭

[torpid ruin]

waiting on my aid package in a couple days :3

[gaunt basalt]

My fafsa hasn’t processed 💀

[torpid ruin]

me neither i dont think but if u read what it said on the portal they put out an estimation

LACs all give out their fin aid package early asf

[tulip carbon]

I honestly would think hmc > ucla from an ROI perspective and from a quality of the education perspective

they are ranked #1 college ROI pretty consistently

although tbf that is helped out by being stem-focused in an area with high cost of living

and depends on the price too

[worldly halo]

you gotta be steph curry to get in

[torpid ruin]

mhmm I getcha

[wet jolt]

hello chat

hows everyone feeling

nah wait any chance hmc have a co28 discord server?

[hardy junco]

my sister got rejected

[lost fog]

they do

it's public actually 💀

you probably have to verify but the invite is online

[worldly halo]

how did i get in

lmao

[rose forum]

rejected hmc

[wet jolt]

LMAO just found it lemme see

[wet jolt]

congrats crazy

[rose forum]

congrats!!

[onyx flicker]

Got in for CS I’m so happy rn

[solar pier]

CONGRATS YALL

[tender solar]

GG stats!?

[onyx flicker]

Get on dm dude

[past plover]

Are you full pay?

[long thorn]

rejected

but damn how did so many people get in based off of the poll lets go

but i guess the 'arvey mudd wasn't for me

[lyric estuary]

Yeah tbh Harvey Mudd is hella slept on. In the real world (like industry and academia) Mudd is at the top tier

They’re name brand might not be prominent socially but everyone knows about them in the industry and academic world

[onyx flicker]

yeah 😅 planning on taking out a loan

[past plover]

It's expensive asf

[onyx flicker]

yeh

but my counsellor told me that HMC kinda pays it all back plus some more within a few years, like it really is that good uk

[past plover]

I think that's only true for domestic

Intls are way harder to get a job that sponsor h1b, let alone pay back 400k

[tribal pulsar]

Idts there any intl on aid/ presidential winners

HMC doesn’t give aid afaik it’s just the presidential award winners

[onyx flicker]

I’m a simple man with big dreams

I’ll figure something out by the end of it

[swift wind]

Has anyone been admitted to Comp Bio?

[past plover]

Ar gl

[neon veldt]

waitlisted :/

they have a pretty nice waitlist page though

[past plover]

Shitty portal ovr

[wild tartan]

what’s going on with the upcoming virtual events tab of the portal 😭

it’s buggin out there’s events from 2015 on there

[molten needle]

The ROI ranking is a little broken tbf

they are just citing payscale and calling it a ranking

[tulip carbon]

very true, and also note my comments re: why they have a leg up by design

[molten needle]

the poll is a scam

same as the MIT one

[nocturne spade]

Does anyone know if the waitlist statement should be just be an loci or if it should be a why Mudd essay too?

[plucky wagon]

probably a bit of both right

you already kinda wrote a why mudd essay in your app though so probably more LOCI

[neon veldt]

accepted people are probably more likely to vote

[cinder birch]

anyone from cali get in?

[worldly halo]

i did

[swift wind]

me too

[tulip carbon]

same here. I think about 50% of hmc students are from california

[plucky wagon]

dang

probably most applications are from cali though

[tender solar]

how many people get waitlisted

[onyx flicker]

Btw guys how many people get the ‘merit scholarship’?

This one^

Wanna know how good it is actually uk

[wet jolt]

i also got this

[tulip carbon]

me too

hmc is really expensive so I wouldn’t sleep on it

[onyx flicker]

Ong

[onyx flicker]

Bett

[tulip carbon]

I’m not international idk if that affects how many people get it

[nocturne spade]

Does anyone know when waitlist decisions came out last year?

[hybrid vault]

how is harvey mudd financial aid for domestics? I am in the 100-150k income range but I'm worried that the NPC says 40k while most top unis and LACs like ivies say 10-25k

I love mudd tho

[wild tartan]

my financial aid was kind of bad

it was like 10k more per year than other schools

[stable pelican]

my estimate was like 5k/yr more than comparable privates

i didnt get in so idk how the actual offer wouldve been

[hybrid vault]

fuck

guess I'm not applying then

[plucky wagon]

the note was really nice

[onyx flicker]

wait i need to know one question

how many indians get into harvey mudd a year?

and this year how many are there?

[plucky wagon]

at least 1

[wet bay]

I was able to find 3

Not counting myself, or a person who moved from Bombay to Singapore

So so far 4 Indians (from India)

Since I probably haven't been able to reach all of them maybe one or two more??

[plucky wagon]

oh wait did you mean from india

then idk cause i live in the us

[onyx flicker]

Yeah u haven’t reached out to me 🫡

[wet bay]

Avdkagdkshdkshkdhskd my bad bro consider yourself reached out to 😓🙏💀

[onyx flicker]

Noted lmfao 🤣

[tender solar]

how many people got off the waitlist
