#

ngl if cwru wasn’t so expensive I’d be way more tempted

past atlas

#

#

quick question

#

I applied PPSP a while ago and I sent my official score to Case via college board (by paying for it to be sent), and I am pretty sure on my common app I selected that I want my SAT to be considred. However I opened my app portal today and it was defaulted to test optional????

#

I never self-reported my scores because I sent them my scores and they recieved it and its too late now to change that I dont want to be test optional on my portal because PPSP comes out soon

#

what is the deal with this, am I fine

#

?

granite bronze
#

Same thing happened to me

#

Im scared too

#

Dk if its too late though

gleaming fox
#

it is too late to change your mind

#

they say its 2 weeks before the results come out

#

but I sent them my scores

#

it says that they recived my test scores in november

#

idk if they will not consider it because I was defaulted to test optional

glossy tapir
#

Wait

#

Case has an optional supplemental?

junior osprey
#

hollow fern

Its hard to even think abt expecting it bc it’s so competitive

But we should always try lol

hollow fern

Its harder than plme

hollow fern

foggy edge
fickle skiff
#

how is case CS

gaunt matrix
fickle skiff
#

yikes

main vector
#

Cwru pre med is t10 regardless and is 60% matriculation rate to med school

viscid dragon
#

Do you like case?

gleaming fox
#

its odd to rank premed cuz it doenst really matter in the end

#

your grades and mcat and oppurtunities are much more important than prestige

merry ferry
#

How do u find out matriculation rate

gleaming fox
#

and case has one of the best oppurtunities in terms of reserach and hospitals (cleveland clinic and many other stuff) nearby

#

and there is very little competition with other schools bc case is the only major school in cleveland

#

and its still prestigious but also not unbelievebly competitive which makes it a really good premed

#

and also the med school is t20 so that too

hidden mica
#

im from cali i dont need that😭

#

berkeley is like an hr away😭

hexed cargo
#

plus its own med shcool is crazy good

sudden wing
#

the premed system in the states is so dumbimo

#

but yeah premed ranking is odd

hexed cargo
#

there isnt really a premed ranking

gleaming fox
#

cleveland clinic

main vector
# gleaming fox cleveland clinic

VA hospital right next to campus, Cleveland clinic <1 mile away, university hospitals on campus (which has a level 1 trauma center and is a teaching hospital), like an infinite amount of research opportunities, there’s a shadowing program both at UH and Cleveland clinic for pre health students, volunteer opportunities at both, etc

main vector
#

I will say it’s not very easy to have a 4.0 here 😭

gleaming fox
#

is it harder than other colleges?

#

its pretty hard to keep a 4.0 in college i assume

obtuse fractal
surreal flicker
#

how is it for engineering? i know its ranking is rising lately

hexed cargo
#

idk much about most

#

but BME is amazing

#

30k Pounds after aid per year

#

so like what 45k usd ?

#

all ik is instead of going 300k deep in students loans i will only have like 40k

runic furnace
#

Eh

#

Still a lot

hexed cargo
#

can probally pay it off in under 3 yrs

#

especially since parents will cover the interest payment

#

i just gonna deal with the principal sum

runic furnace
#

Is it even possible to take loans for intls?

hexed cargo
#

:D

runic furnace
#

Yeah but I thought there should be some sort of an agreement from college or smth like that

hexed cargo
#

then u work out a loan that works for u w the bank

runic furnace
#

Ok

foggy edge
#

why did case send me the same financial package twice💀

vernal merlin

#

Hi guys how good is the uh financial aid and pre-med program at CWRU

foggy edge
#

Financial aid they're p decent

astral sand
#

I’ve been talking with a mentor of mine I did bio lab stuff with and they heavily suggested it

foggy edge
#

I can't speak on it because i didn't get any aid because my merit scholarship replaced all of it

astral sand
#

apparently it’s stupid good for pre med but I wanted to look more into it

foggy edge
#

But a current cwru student said that their aid is v good

#

Like not ivy level but better than USC probs

astral sand
#

My main concerns were those 2 and then safety + infrastructure ig

#

cause it’s in Cleveland

foggy edge
#

Infrastructure is nice

#

Like they sent a lot of cool brochures in the acceptance package and it looks great

#

Safety yeah valid concern i can't speak on that

astral sand
#

I see

#

In that case if I get in it’d probably be one of my top choices then but it’s def a reach school for me

dapper vigil
#

show demonstated interest

astral sand
#

And do they consider it?

dapper vigil
#

yes

foggy edge
# astral sand How

Open emails, sign up and attend webinars and information sessions, tour if you can, follow socials

astral sand
#

Can’t tour tho cause I can’t afford it

#

But how would they attribute me following them on instagram and replying to emails/attending webinars to my application

#

And would it make much difference?

foggy edge
#

And when you sign up for webinars they ask for your name

#

I don't actually know whether they track instagram tho

foggy edge
# astral sand And would it make much difference?

uh well I've heard that case is known to defer/waitlist qualified people who don't show interest and i showed a decent bit of interest and got in ea whereas others with similar stats were deferred/admitted to spring and they didn't show interest so take from that info what you will

#

i didn't even do much tbh just opened emails and signed up for a few webinars

#

I didn't even attend i just signed up

#

The timezones were all weird so it was like 2 am my time and stuff

astral sand
#

But maybe I’ll attend too just to learn more

#

According to my college counselor tho im apparently the first in my school’s history to apply to CWRU

dapper vigil
astral sand
#

can’t wait for CWRU ‘28 fr let’s get this W

#

CWRU would be a major W for me in this app cycle

foggy edge
silk trellis
astral sand
#

nobody really applied out of state

#

like maybe id say 4-5 people ik of did

astral sand
#

@foggy edge ur right about the timezones

#

and im from cali

#

when it comes to their webinar

#

theyre holding webinars at like 2pm on weekdays

#

in the middle of my school classes

#

idek how im supposed to make that work

foggy edge
#

they'll def have some on weekends

astral sand
foggy edge
#

and usually if you sign up, theyll email recordings later

#

you could email them questions based on the recordings

astral sand
#

that works yeah

#

im gonna check for any extra scholarships

#

cause i punched in my info to the fin aid calculator they have

#

and they offer to cover nearly everything besides like 10k left

foggy edge
#

brooo thats such a W

#

case also gives a decent amount of merit aid

astral sand
foggy edge
#

i got a 32.5k/y merit scholly which is max but there's also a 45k/y one for stem kids

foggy edge
astral sand
#

probably seems like a super high target rn

foggy edge
#

for pre med i'd say yeah

astral sand
#

i guess we'll see but for now ill punch in additional cwru scholarships and hope for the best

#

do you know when they usually release RD?

foggy edge
#

but it should be on their website

#

they said dec 19 on website in like october itself, and we got it on 18th i think

astral sand
#

ah they say march 20

#

a month left

foggy edge
#

gl!!

astral sand
#

thanks!

astral sand
#

so i managed to sign up for 2 webinars and used the fin aid calculator by inputting it with my email and name

#

is that enough demonstrated interest

#

or is there more i need to accomplish

fickle skiff
#

The only interest I showed up was opening every email and I got in EA

#

My stats aren’t exactly the best as well (3.7 1470)

#

I’d say ur fine

astral sand
#

im doing T/O 3.64uw and 3.96w

dapper vigil
astral sand
#

thats what i was finna say

#

how tf they supposed to-

dapper vigil
#

i sign up for an info session

#

just gonna join and leave at the end

elfin widget
#

can’t they only tell if you open links

tight loom
#

they use gifs

#

to track

#

if someone opened it

#

and theres apps

dapper vigil
#

huh

tight loom
#

An email tracking tool embeds a tracking pixel in all the emails that you send. When the recipient opens your email, the tracking pixel contacts the email tracking server and registers the email as opened. The tracking pixel gives you confirmation when someone views your email.

astral sand
#

even the ones that were classified as spam fr

astral sand
#

checked EVERY CWRU email ive ever gotten

main vector
#

did anyone go to admitted students day today

main vector
vernal merlin
#

Does institutional aid include merit aid?

main vector
#

it's just the financial aid the university gives u

#

so if u want money do the css

vernal merlin
#

Ohh ok thank you so much!

fickle skiff
astral sand
#

Is it true the CWRU dorms ain’t that good

fickle skiff
#

Yeah they were pretty clapped I ain’t gone lie

astral sand
#

they gotta be taking care of their dorms fr

#

I was looking at some photos on their website and even those didn’t look flattering

#

The common areas aren’t bad tho in the photos

#

They give like 2009 Holiday Inn vibes but in like a homey way

foggy edge
#

oh that is very homey yeah

astral sand
#

It’s just that the dorm rooms themselves aren’t like up there in terms of quality but they’re not bad

foggy edge
astral sand
#

Something gives me the vibe tho that if I patted the sofa with my hand a bunch of dust would come out

foggy edge
#

LOL

stiff egret
main vector
#

the model dorm has nicer floors and stuff

#

i will say that the double dorms are bigger than the model dorm in smith though

astral sand
#

Cause photos can’t tell 100% of the story I’d assume

fickle skiff
#

And here I was lowk likin the school

astral sand
fickle skiff
#

There was barely furniture and it was all kinda broken

#

The fan was also broken

astral sand
fickle skiff
#

How does an aiqs class work @main vector

foggy edge
main vector
# foggy edge whats the topic

main vector
foggy edge
#

lmao mood

#

im an english major tho so 😭

main vector
#

but I’ve liked my class

#

It’s just 4:15-5pm Tuesday Thursday so I am like pls can I go home

#

at least campus is pretty

It’s soooo pretty in the fall

foggy edge

Physics building

foggy edge
#

main vector
#

Here r some good photo s

#

Bro there’s a coffee place on campus that’s free if u have the meal plan and it’s SO GOOD

#

I swear it’s the best coffee I’ve had in my life

fickle skiff
#

How does your topic get assigned to you

main vector
#

then they choose for you based on that

fickle skiff
#

Is the seminar easy or no

#

Also how are the stem classes like physics/chem/bio/calc since I’m kinda considering this school for premed

main vector
main vector
#

I’ve found them easy the labs are just a lot of work

#

calc 2 was hard

#

Gen chem is a weedout class but imo it was the easiest class I’ve taken 💀

astral sand
#

so how are the volunteer/research opportunities

fickle skiff
#

Is having like a 4.0 doable?

fickle skiff
#

That’s the main reason I was considering this school

astral sand
#

Small

#

Seemingly good

#

Good research

#

Plenty of opportunities

#

Known for being good at pre-med

#

Decent financial aid according to the calculator

#

And nobody from my school has ever applied in the past 5 years

frozen skiff
#

did anyone get an email hinting at admissions?

tight loom
#

i got the banquet email thing

#

but its worded so u think u got in

#

AND MY MOM WONT LEAVE ME ALONEnoooo

frozen skiff
#

does it mean anything?

tight loom
#

idk

#

maybe

#

i havent seen the website

frozen skiff
#

cause on the sign-up sheet it says you can't sign up for admitted events if you aren't admitted

tight loom
#

How to unsubscribe parents from case emails

frozen skiff
#

LMAOO

tight loom
#

oh wtff?

frozen skiff
#

huh

frozen skiff
tight loom
frozen skiff
#

this is what the website says

#

the email says to register for the admitted thing

#

and the website says you can't if you're not admitted so the wording is very confusing

sullen pilot
#

Likely letter?

frozen skiff
#

im hoping so

#

maybe i can ask some friends at my school if they got an email

#

but i dont wanna come off as a dick if they didnt tho

#

lmao

astral sand
#

Yeah

frozen skiff
#

yuh

astral sand
#

I got it too

#

I think they just sent it to everyone

frozen skiff
#

i wouldnt be surprised

astral sand
#

CWRU has aggressive emails and outreach

frozen skiff
#

its cwru after all they prob have an entire email-only spam department

#

yeah lmao

astral sand
#

They sent me 2 posters and a booklet

#

just out of nowhere

frozen skiff
#

they spend A LOT on these things apparently

astral sand
#

yeah seemingly

frozen skiff
#

they send the most mail and booklets

astral sand
#

But it did work for me cause it made me look into it

#

and that’s why ik it’s good for my plans

frozen skiff
#

same for me i initially wasn't too into it but ig they're spending in the right places

#

really draws students in

sullen pilot
#

Ok but it says admitted students day

frozen skiff
#

thats the part that gets me cause you can't register unless youre admitted but as of right now none of us are

astral sand
#

Atp CWRU is one of my top schools

tight loom
#

one of us should enail

astral sand
#

cause it seems well catered to my needs

tight loom
#

cuz its weird

sullen pilot
#

They are closed today already

#

I was gonna call

astral sand
#

bruh

frozen skiff
#

hopefully its good news 🤞

astral sand
#

Anyways I’m wondering how competitive CWRU is

#

Cause that acceptance rate got me moderately worried

#

particularly cause pre-med seems to be one of its main concentrations

sullen pilot
#

I asked my college counselor I’ll let y’all know what they say

frozen skiff
#

are you pre-med or eng?

#

those tend to be the most competetive

astral sand
#

But I doubt my local area is competitive for CWRU

#

it’s not well-known even by my counselors

#

so nobody at my school is doing it

#

:/

tight loom
#

case doesnt even have my transcript yall

#

idk if im accepted

#

its weird wording

#

by the looks of if

#

notice how

#

you can fo to the banquet without the admitted students

#

i cant sign up for admitted stufents day

knotty hinge
#

It definitely doesn't matter lmfao

#

I imagine it's literally just a "since these 2 events r going on at like the same time you can go to both if you want "

astral sand
#

^

#

seems right

main vector
fickle skiff
#

Yeah they have EA and ed

main vector
#

so that’s what the message is for

astral sand
#

cwru pls take me fr

main vector
#

so u can switch to anything

#

except music and nursing I think those are separate

frozen skiff
#

why would only some recieve it

#

some kids at my school didnt get the email

#

thats what confuses me

astral sand
#

so it isnt extra competitive to do that

main vector
#

oh I looked at my admissions file

#

I can tell u what they look at

worn mason
#

ooh yes

main vector
#
  1. Gpa calculated
  2. Likelihood of attending if admitted with 1 being most likely 10 being unlikely
  3. percentile of your high school, your calculated percentile in your school

Scaling 1-3, 3 highest
4. rigor of school itself based on school profile
Meets expectations of school academically
5. Experiential learning
6. academic rigor in all subjects
7. meaningful contribution to diversity of school
8. leadership in clubs
9. involvement in social justice
10. Admissions decision 2/16/22 (spent exactly 5 minutes on my application to the exact second): admit, pre-lim admit
11. Comments
12. potential success

#

#10 was mine specifically

#

I deleted my stuff out of the rest of them

fickle skiff

fickle skiff
#

Ooh okay

#

So u go to the school and after a week of classes

fickle skiff
#

main vector
#

#

fickle skiff
#

Do other schools have this?

main vector
#

I saw mine in September

#

Yes

#

Some schools don’t let u see but most do

#

I think it’s ur right under FERPA actually

#

They gave me a 1 on some things I thought I would get a 3 on 💀

#

oh the comments on mh file were funny

fickle skiff
#

Is this list like this for every college

#

Or just case

main vector
#

they said they didn’t like that I got an 88 in ap physics 2 but my ap scores made up for it 💀

main vector
#

This list is like what I read in my admissions file

#

I memorized it all

fickle skiff
#

Damn I kinda want to see

main vector
#

U can’t take notes or take pictures of ur file

main vector
#

hurt my ego a little but they let me in so idc

fickle skiff
#

I don’t think I’m commting unless I get hella rejections but I’ll see

astral sand
#

cause i didnt write about med stuff in my PS

#

i wrote about planes 💀

main vector
#

There are a lot of engineers here

fickle skiff
#

Liek the common app essay?

main vector
#

Also they can see it thru ur ECs

astral sand
#

not like the engineering part of planes

#

im talking like weird ass shit

#

i mean the headrests and the seats and stuff

main vector
#

I’m pretty sure they don’t even read the ps very well

#

They spend 5 minutes

fickle skiff
#

I don’t remember them having supplementals?

main vector
#

I think they just skim it and move on

main vector
astral sand
main vector
#

Unless u apppy PPSP

astral sand
#

cause my gpa isnt up there

#

wait hold up

#

they care about social justice stuff???

main vector
#

Ya

fickle skiff
#

Oh he’s talking about the main common app essay

astral sand
#

man if only they had like 1 supp fr

main vector
#

they gave me a 1/3 even though I wrote about standing up to my school district for federal violations of the ADA 😭

astral sand
main vector
#

And writing a senate bill

#

Bro idfk

astral sand
#

that sounds like the epitome of social justice

main vector
#

I think they just didn’t read it

fickle skiff
#

remote wren
astral sand
#

i guess my biggest worry is that like theyre gonna be like CSUs

#

where the main point is whats ur grades

fickle skiff
#

Don’t worry my gpa is way below my schools accepted average and I got in

main vector
astral sand
fickle skiff
#

Essentially they use a more holistic method

main vector
astral sand
#

maybe i do have some semblance of hope then

main vector
#

They calculated my gpa to be 3.66

#

Bc my school doesn’t do +-

#

I had a 3.89 at my school

astral sand
#

im rocking up with a 3.64uw and a 3.96w

main vector
#

UW

#

4.5 W

main vector
astral sand
main vector
#

If u have food ECs

#

Good

#

If not then 😭

astral sand
#

my ECs are pretty good

main vector
#

They care a lot about ECs

fickle skiff
#

Wait did u submit sat Chloe

astral sand
#

i volunteered at an ethiopian ngo

#

that was like my best one

main vector
astral sand
#

or like varsity soccer

fickle skiff
#

Ooh okay

main vector
fickle skiff
#

Wait so they use + and - when u apply

astral sand
#

so i went to my parents hometown over summer

main vector
astral sand
#

and jumped at the opportunity

astral sand
main vector
#

I was like help noooo u fell into the trap

astral sand
#

thats why i didnt like write essays about it

#

but i mentioned it as like an EC

main vector
#

ya

astral sand
#

they should be able to connect the dots i hope and realize im ethiopian

#

or else im finished

main vector
#

r ur parents first gen

astral sand
#

my parents immigrated here and didnt go to college ye

main vector
#

ok they’ll know then

astral sand
#

cool cool

main vector
#

and I’m pretty sure parent birth country is on common app

astral sand
#

yeah that is true

#

so then they should probably figure it out

main vector
#

ya

astral sand
#

after ED/ED2 id probably have to say cwru is prob up there

#

might take it over some of the UCs if the money is right

#

so thats why im gunning hard for it

main vector
astral sand
#

thats why i was worried about the need-aware

main vector
astral sand
#

from los angeles

main vector
#

then they’re not need aware

#

they’re need blind

#

so ur good

astral sand
#

oh damn really???

main vector
#

yes

astral sand
#

was stressing for nothing

main vector
#

which means u get max aid

astral sand
#

ah so im chillin then if i can get in

main vector
#

Ik a lot of ppl who pay <10k

#

I’m just unlucky 😭

astral sand
#

im glad i randomly applied to cwru only to find out how good it was

astral sand
main vector
#

I didn’t know it was good I just applied for the BSMD program

#

and then got deferred and did research about it

#

and I was like wtf

#

bc I had to write the deferral essay

astral sand
#

i got back to back rejected from princeton rea and uchi ed2 and now im here like damn cwru really a sleeper school

main vector
#

I like it here

astral sand
#

cause i was talking with my counselors about my pre-med school options and they never brought it up

#

prob cause we're all the way here in CA so it not as obvious a choice

main vector
#

my doctor said only nerds and doctors know what cwru is 😭😭

astral sand
main vector
#

yeah it’s great

astral sand
#

at least compared to a lot of the schools i did apply to

main vector
#

rn I have research and a clinical job and volunteer

#

I work at UH which is literally on campus

#

and then I do research for the med school

astral sand
#

so ur chillin then

#

what about gpa

main vector
#

ya

astral sand
#

has it been easy to maintain a good one?

main vector
#

3.7

#

I got 1 B

#

In calc 2

#

Oh we don’t have +-

#

So 80-89 is a B=3.0

#

But that also means 90-100=a=4.0

#

I got an 89 bro

#

I was so mad

astral sand
#

bruh im finished

at my school heres the grade scale:

100 - 82: A
82 - 64: B
64 - 45: C
45 and below: F

main vector
#

my prof said he would write me a letter to med schools saying I got an 89 and not an 80 if he wanted me to 💀

astral sand
#

1 B took you to a 3.7

main vector
astral sand
main vector
#

And I was taking 14 credits

astral sand
#

so no Ds

#

and they fudged up the system

#

we're not even graded on assignments

main vector
astral sand
#

we're graded on standards

#

which are tied to assignments

#

but multiple ones

#

so fucking weird

main vector
#

A90-100 B80-89 C70-79 F<70

astral sand
main vector
#

Ya for my hs

#

we also had curved deflation

#

so every AP class was curved to a C

#

so the average in the class had to be a 70

#

LMFAO

#

very annoying for the gpa

astral sand
#

tbh im pissed off my hs gpa wasnt higher

fickle skiff
#

How was calc1

astral sand
#

i wish we had more APs but they were so limited

main vector
astral sand
main vector
fickle skiff
#

Did u skip to calc 2

astral sand
main vector
astral sand
#

does CWRU take cc credits?

main vector
astral sand
#

motherfuc-

main vector
#

Only AP

#

And a few APs

#

And it’s only 5s

#

Except for like a few of them

astral sand
#

ive taken 4 cc classes and im on my 5th bruh kill me

main vector
#

Physics is a 4 I think

astral sand
#

im literally in the middle of intro to psych

fickle skiff
#

So like u skipped to calc 2 or did u retake calc 1

main vector
main vector
#

U don’t have to retake if u have ap credit or take the placement exam

astral sand
# main vector And it’s only 5s

in 11th grade we didnt get an AP US history teacher we had a sub cause the actual teacher quit during summer

i was the only one to pass (with a 3)

#

im never NOT gonna be pissed off

main vector
#

They have a placement exam for math and physics if u took like cc or didn’t get a 5 on the AP exam

astral sand
#

with an actual teacher i wouldve aced it for sure man

fickle skiff
#

Nice man

#

Apush isn’t easy

main vector
#

U can’t even get apush credit here

astral sand
astral sand
main vector
#

Unless u take a 1 credit history class

#

And u got a 5

astral sand
main vector
#

Ya I got a 5 but I said fuck that I’m not taking a history class

fickle skiff
#

What the you smart duhdew

main vector
#

Oh and for English AP credit u have to take like a 300 level English class to retroactively get AP credit for the 100 level class

#

Bio gives you an elective credit so it’s useless

astral sand
#

bro UCLA aint even this strict: you get a 3 on an AP exam you get the credit

fickle skiff
#

I have credit for apes, Chinese, gov, micro and apush

astral sand
#

just a 3 and all UCs will just take it

main vector
#

I had 36 credits in AP credit or smth

astral sand
main vector
#

I’m oos

astral sand
fickle skiff
#

What can I get with the credits I have

astral sand
#

UCLA OOS, not easy

astral sand
#

good on you for making it in anyway

main vector
#

Maybe Chinese I’m not sure

#

And u had to get a 4 on micro

fickle skiff
#

Oh and calc ab

main vector
#

If u got a 5 then yes

fickle skiff
#

Is that all?

main vector
#

If not then no

#

Ya I’m pretty sure

#

But they have a website with all of it

astral sand
#

for CWRU if super duper high grades arent necessarily required why the acceptance rate so low

fickle skiff
#

Yeah the website is kinda vague with it

main vector
main vector
#

It’s just u can compensate the lower gpa with cracked ECs

#

bc they place a lot of weight on ECs

astral sand
#

thats what i keep seeing when i do my research

#

other than that maybe i might have a chance based on ECs

#

my top 4 ones are solid but they diminish in quality from there

astral sand
runic furnace
#

when the decision will come out

knotty hinge
#

I mean it's rd

#

Probably like March 15 or around

timid laurel
#

Yall why did Case Western send sumn that was like attend this event and admitted students event

#

#

#

💀

astral sand
#

No

#

You didn’t

#

We were just discussing this @timid laurel

#

It’s not much to consider rn

timid laurel

devout nymph
#

yeah

fickle skiff
#

@main vector Wait I did the thing with ferpa so that I couldn’t see my letters of rec, does that mean I can’t see my admission file

fickle skiff
#

Okay bet

gentle oxide
#

What is case western rd acceptance rate

#

I got defered ed1 and want to go here rd as my first choice

astral sand
#

If I won a civics award should I contact my CWRU a/o about it to show demonstrated interest/more awards

gentle oxide
#

idt u should contact toomuch

#

i heard u should only communicate it if it is something very big

#

not fully sure tho

astral sand
#

And it’s an award I didn’t get a chance to put on the common app

#

if they’re big on the demonstrated interest part wouldn’t it make some sense?

astral sand
#

?

gentle oxide
#

i think there is a dif between contaciting to show interest and overcommunicating

#

my friends college counsler told him that

half vapor
#

thye gave me a bunch of cool stuff in acceptance package

astral sand
#

cool

foggy edge
runic furnace
half vapor

foggy edge
#

oh i got that a while back

#

but not this rip

#

actually brb

#

ok yeah i didn't get it

runic furnace
foggy edge
#

so that negated any aid i would've gotten

#

like my case western net price showed me the same amount I'd be paying if i committed except it's completely due to the scholly

runic furnace
#

wow, u r the best

gentle oxide
#

Anyone know rd acceptance rate and if people typical get admitted off of deferal(if they have shown maximum demonstrated interest)?

gleaming fox
#

What is maximum demonstrated interest

astral sand
#

how much more demonstrated interest do i need after opening emails and signing up for webinars i dont attend

runic furnace
#

u better attend them

astral sand
#

Guess I gotta go then

gleaming fox
#

do you have to go to multiple?

#

I went to one

#

and did the virtual tour

#

I also talk with a coach there pretty often but is that considered demonstrated interest?

#

I open the emails

#

I met with an ao that came to our school

gentle oxide
gleaming fox
#

How do you update your application via email

#
