Waitlist Womp Womps (2023-2024)

[bleak tendon]

we'll be in wave 2

[modest hill]

Hopefully pls

[nova arrow]

So basically I’m being compared to every single person on the waitlist

[hybrid vortex]

depends on the school but yeah that’s kinda how waitlists work lol

and college admissions in general

[nova arrow]

Fml

I’m actually screwed

[hybrid vortex]

waitlists are harder to get off of bc colleges are looking to fill very specific slots in their entering class

[violet spindle]

any updates on umich?

[bleak tendon]

yea WL is more about institutional prorities right?

[hybrid vortex]

almost completely

[violet spindle]

do those specific slots mean like diversity stuff or what

[hybrid vortex]

if a school really needs someone who is interested in being in xyz sport that doesn’t have enough incoming freshmen, then someone who expressed a desire to be on the team can be conditionally accepted as a walk on

[hybrid vortex]

schools aren’t allowed to consider race anymore

[violet spindle]

oh

[hybrid vortex]

it was overturned by the supreme court

[bleak tendon]

ye i read about that

[violet spindle]

oh yeah

[bleak tendon]

ngl i dont think i have any hooks for a insititutional porprity

but we never know

[fierce kettle]

no cal? 😔

[bleak tendon]

nope

[fierce kettle]

👍

[hybrid vortex]

i mean institutional priorities can be literally anything

[modest viper]

what would be considered a hook

[hybrid vortex]

it really depends on the school lol

[bleak tendon]

ig true

[hybrid vortex]

could be major, could be financial need, could be you don’t want to bring a car to campus and they’ve been having trouble with student parking so they’ll let you in instead of a student who wants to bring a car to campus

[nova arrow]

No cs came out this first wave am I fucked

[hybrid vortex]

it is literally anything and everything

[nova arrow]

so no?

idk I can’t function anymore

[hybrid vortex]

i was talking abt institutional priorities lol

some schools do waitlist admissions by academic department

if you’re really invested you can call them and ask

[modest viper]

what school are you trying to get into

[nova arrow]

UCSD

[nova arrow]

yeah I’ll do it Monday

[bleak tendon]

theres always the 2nd wave

lmk what they say on call tho

[modest viper]

i suggesting getting off

bit jealous of everyone as well

[late stump]

r u committed to usc?

[hybrid vortex]

i am!!

[late stump]

oo congratss

[hybrid vortex]

thank you!!

[late stump]

im also cs 😭

[late stump]

yww!!❤️

[hybrid vortex]

i only got waitlisted at two schools (cmu and ithaca) and i accepted the spot at cmu so i’m just hanging even though i probably won’t go if i get in lol

[nova arrow]

Huh

[late stump]

oo what major

u might get off if it’s not business or cs tbh

[nova arrow]

I heard basically everyone who didn’t apply cs got off so I’m like maybe cs majors have a dif wave or idk what’s going on 💀💀

[late stump]

damn like cpslo

why didn’t I apply ds omg

[hybrid vortex]

b.x.a. stage management and computer science (their version of a combined major because it’s really hard to double major with a b.f.a.) so i’m being considered for stage management (school of drama), computer science, and the combined major

[modest viper]

you said you cant function because of the waitlist right?

[late stump]

oo damnn wait how did u sort the fin aid at usc

they aren’t giving me anything

[nova arrow]

Yep and the signs are clearer now

[hybrid vortex]

i ended up getting an outside scholarship that made it slightly more affordable so i just bit the bullet and committed because im gonna do the professional development program where you work on your masters during undergrad

[late stump]

oo that was my plan too working while studying bc my major is pretty light

[proven violet]

I have hope for UMich tmr (cope)

[late stump]

did u get the scholarship thru the usc universe portal?

[hybrid vortex]

it was a lot of pieces that ended up falling into place and i still can’t believe it happened lol

[modest viper]

i mean where are you committed to right now?

[hybrid vortex]

unfortunately not, but i will be visiting the portal daily for the next four years

[nova arrow]

Vtech

[late stump]

real

I don’t have much scholarships

[hybrid vortex]

but a lot of the people who get off of the waitlist at cmu are in the school of drama because they admit by major and their class sizes are so small that they have to fill every seat (they only take 4 people per year for my major)

[late stump]

like it’s 1k or less

[hybrid vortex]

so i just want to see if i get in even if im not going lol

[late stump]

I might just commit elsewhere tbh

[hybrid vortex]

at the end of the day 1k covers your textbooks at the very least

[late stump]

😭

[modest viper]

nice

[late stump]

my tuition might be 94k

[bleak tendon]

where are u thinking of committing

[late stump]

cal poly slo for cs bc I got a scholarship and like I’ll be paying very less 😭

not my dream but we’ll see

[bleak tendon]

i see

[hearty vale]

i swear cs always a shitshow

i chose the wrong major tf

[hearty vale]

i think its best to just not expect anything

like i give up on manifesting

if i get an email from them saying congratulations then yay otherwise its whatevs

chances are just crazy low and this year its boutta be like sub 100 people

[proven violet]

Nah i know most people say that but im against that mindset personallyyy

Having hope is fun even if its delulu

[hearty vale]

i respect it

[devout knoll]

when?

pls

[light nebula]

harv waitlist came out?

[mental sky]

omg that’s actually sick to hear never heard of an appeal being accepted

Good for u man

[modest hill]

wait usc accepted me for fall not spring wtf

wait this is even more insane

[mental sky]

how do appeals work again

U just send in letter saying why u shouldn’t have been rejected?

[fickle terrace]

Some people like to be in an academically challenging and stimulating environment

[modest hill]

i genuiely am kinda unsure i glazed usc a bit and then wrote some new extracurriculars

[chrome moat]

What a great take, I forgot that academically stimulating/challening and good grades are mutually exclusive things

Thx for reminding 👍

[fickle terrace]

Bro idk if you're being sarcastic 😳

[hybrid vortex]

dude you’re getting weirdly defensive abt grade deflation lol

[chrome moat]

Defensive? I just stand by my original stance about Harvard over Princeton and the messages I've seen here opposing it are rly dumb to me

[chrome moat]

Like Im obv being sarcastic, I dont see why an environment without grade deflation somehow makes it not academically stimulating

It just makes it not academically competitive

Or at least less so

[fickle terrace]

So you think Grade inflation is good?

[chrome moat]

Lmfao what

No

[fickle terrace]

Fair enough

[chrome moat]

I dont believe grades should be inflated nor deflated

If teachers wish to individually curve everyone by the same amount, so be it

Apart from that, grades should just be what they are

[violet spindle]

tf r yall yapping about

[nova arrow]

literally

[mental sky]

if someone has an opinion, so be it 😂

don’t waste ur time yapping

[hot stone]

Please be kind to everyone

Also my friend (she got wl by 3 schools and was about to go to cc bc she didn’t get in anywhere) got off the ucsd wl!!! 🥳🥳🥳

[bleak tendon]

yay congrats!

[visual bear]

friend of mine got off ucsd waitlist

[gilded crest]

Any engineering acceptances for ucsd?

[dawn flare]

DID BERKELEY COME

i was afk for a whileeee

[modest hill]

ucsd hopefully comes through

please

[dawn flare]

fishhhh congratstststts

WWW

[modest hill]

oh tysm

im super happy abt usc

[dawn flare]

r u considering it over davis?

[modest hill]

maybe

usc i heard is easy to switch to majors and very flexible

[dawn flare]

W

congrats!!!

[modest hill]

ty

[celest orchid]

did you get aid

[woven pier]

wait someone please clarify, what wave came out for ucsd (major, location, etc)

reading the messages and i’m so confused

[modest hill]

not yet im waiting for financail

[modest hill]

bio, ucsd, poli sci, and cs as far as ik

also mayo we both got into the same major but different term which is kinda interesting

[regal bison]

genuinely so cool that you all got your appeals through!

seems like someone got off for astrophysics @ UCSD as well

[woven pier]

huh, that’s so interesting

[woven pier]

thank you so much, lifesaver genuinely 🙏🏽

hit me up if cog sci comes out so i can dash those hopes real quick 😁

[eternal gull]

any duke second wave movement?

[modest hill]

lol fs

[modest hill]

Yup I got fall for cogni sci

[pearl quail]

Does anyone know when GTech waitlist comes out?

[modest hill]

Oh and structural engineering

[hardy gate]

Any news on UPenn ToT

[celest orchid]

oh ok good luck!

[atomic whale]

anything on dartmouth?

[heady parcel]

will umich send your WL decision by email or they'll just say 'there's an update on your portal'?

i don't want to accidentally open my email and see a rejection without some mental preparation

[kindred lance]

any news on columbia?

[stiff hazel]

@tineocollegeprep on tiktok says a few of his students have gotten off but other than what he says i havent seen anything

[kindred lance]

on college confidential someone phoned the admissions team and they said no one has gotten of yet

[stiff hazel]

yeah ive seen that too

[turbid terrace]

did ucsd come out

[upbeat musk]

I DISAGREE mid May is May 15 ☹️☹️☹️☹️

[regal mason]

Will Berkeley come out the next week?

[median mason]

I think if you get an email from UMich over the next month or so, it’ll be good news. Sometime in late June or July they’ll send a “waitlist closed” message.

[olive karma]

ugh i just wanna know now and get this over and done with

[topaz sand]

Did ucsd’s waitlist come out?

[flat cradle]

Proof?

[hot stone]

Yes

[surreal gust]

what is bro talking about 💀

[stone barn]

Wym proof 💀

[modest hill]

Bro I swear they did this shit for some applicants. There is this kid at my school who got rejected cal poly Pomona, all the UCs except for one, which was Berkeley. He had a total of 9 Bs or more. And our valedictorian who applied for the same major got rejected berk but he got in

[mental sky]

I mean whatd he apply as

that could’ve made a difference

[modest hill]

They both applied for astrophysics same major

[visual bear]

no it’s crazy man

[modest hill]

UCs to me feel like a true mystery when admissions come out

[rain crane]

Dude esp Berkeley like nearly every person ik that got in was rejected from every other UC except UCSC

Berkeleys admission criteria just seems very strange

[bleak tendon]

tf is this shit

[inland stag]

Berkeley just seems like they don’t even care about grades and just admits based on whose vibe they like

[wide oriole]

waitlisted at 8 schools, still nothing

[modest hill]

Well. I prob cannot say this word but Berkeley admitted a very weird and dangerous kid to their class

[modest hill]

Sorry to hear. Hope u get off

[wide oriole]

thanks 🙏

[hearty vale]

Praying for you

[rain crane]

Has the ucla waitlisted moved at all for L&S?

[modest hill]

Has anyone here on this server got off ucla

[rain crane]

I haven’t heard about anybody yea

But there have been a lot of people on cc

[modest hill]

I would just wait and feels very odd to hear that no one here got off

[rain crane]

So far it’s just been OOS International and the engineering department tho

[modest hill]

Ah ic

Good luck

[rain crane]

Yeah fr

🙏

[rain crane]

Congrats on USC tho!

You’re still waiting on ucsd?

[modest hill]

Yup.

[rain crane]

Just out of curiosity why ucsd over usc?

Money or other favored?

Factors

[modest hill]

UCSD DS program is phenomenal and maybe tuition only cuz I have no clue what this usc tuition is

Also I like the beach

[silver dock]

Anything from Tufts?

[sonic hollow]

Do yall think there's a possibility of getting a 2nd wave of engineering admits for UCLA

[modest hill]

I think so

Cornell did a second wave for CAS I believe so prob

Like all colleges have second wave

I think

[sonic hollow]

i see

just wondering since LA takes more admits from L&S than engineering

[modest hill]

Well Herman idk if u know him he’s here in this server got off for CS

[sonic hollow]

oh wow

I haven't checked this server in a few days so i didn't know

[modest hill]

Ya anything can happen

[sonic hollow]

congrats to him

hopefully I can get the same outcome in a future wave

[modest hill]

Oh no this was last year lol

[wide oriole]

is ucla doing more waves?

also anyone know abt the status of:
Dartmouth
mit
Columbia
Cornell
gtech

[sonic hollow]

oh i see

still

i gotta have some hope

[modest hill]

Cornell has already made movements

[mental sky]

that’s kinda crazy then lol

[wide oriole]

Cornell eng?

[modest hill]

Ngl unsure cuz my classmate got off Cornell waitlist for CS. Unsure if he said CAS or COE

[wide oriole]

Kk ty

[visual bear]

same with one of my friends too

[light nebula]

does harv make calls or just status updates?

[visual bear]

yes, cc isn’t super trustworthy tho so not easy to tell. ^ yup oos and engineering

[modest hill]

Wait u haven’t gotten a status update yet

?

[wide oriole]

ya one of my friends was data sci and rejected/wl from 17 colleges including the ucs (in state) and he ended off w berk on the last day

[atomic whale]

Does anyone know abt the status of Princeton ?

[modest hill]

That’s insane.

[visual bear]

^^^

[light nebula]

no nothing new since March 28th

[late stump]

help thats me but not berkeley

[wide oriole]

ucs are hella random

[light nebula]

did everyone get an update????

[modest hill]

A lot did

[light nebula]

ohh

[rain crane]

gotcha

i still havent comitted lol between ucsd and uci

[late stump]

wait does ucsd take ur second choice if ur waitlisted??

[modest hill]

Wait what hasn’t the commitment date passed??

[rain crane]

i was able to get an extension for both

[modest hill]

Ana trying to leave usc…..

[rain crane]

cuz of fafsa reasons

[modest hill]

Ah ic

[late stump]

yes i hate it here

[rain crane]

dam that was my dream school between usc and la lol

[modest hill]

Become a party animal embrace it!!!

[late stump]

help 😭 ill be a party animal if it was 50k cheaper

im praying for my wl to work out

[modest hill]

Ah ic so sorry to hear

[rain crane]

nah its good i mean i was so delusional that i was gunna get merit aid from usc LOL

[modest hill]

No we spending that cash

[late stump]

fund my tuition pls

[late stump]

REALLL

[modest hill]

Ana I might be going broke too

[late stump]

lets go to slo :))

[modest hill]

SLO waitlisted me

[late stump]

huhh the college process does not make sense

hope u get off and get good aid at usc!!

[modest hill]

Hopefully yes tysm

[turbid terrace]

did purdue wl come out

[celest orchid]

gobears789123 is wild 😭

[celest orchid]

from what i've heard berkeley is the most holistic UC and UCLA is the least ie ucla cares more about gpa/aps etc (just from what i've heard people say)

[vapid skiff]

dont ucs link up so one person doesnt get into all of them?

[bleak tendon]

no

[modest hill]

There’s no such thing as this

People can legit get into all or just one

[surreal gust]

cross admit rate for la and berk is low though some do get into both

[celest orchid]

no lol

i got into 3.5/4 UCs that i applied to

[topaz sand]

How do I know if I got accepted or rejected off the waitlist at ucsd?

[hearty vale]

wait 🙂

[modest hill]

Email

Status update will eventually pop up

[visual bear]

girl help i’m scrolling college confidential

the waitlists are getting to me

[hard vigil]

Another day of waiting for mit waitlist
😭

[modest viper]

[urban jolt]

Any news for umich waitlist

[cyan heart]

Anything about Penn ?

They've been dead silent for some time now

[misty summit]

penn state?

[twilit harness]

anything from Columbia yet

or should I j give up atp

[buoyant chasm]

i haven't heard anything from upenn

same with columbia

I'm REALLY hoping they're going to contact on May 20

I don't know if I have it in me to keep on waiting after late May...

[twilit harness]

same

[slim geyser]

Sadness

It’s alright Ithaca >

[atomic whale]

real

[nova spear]

Do we stop hoping after May?

[twilit harness]

prolly yea

[visual bear]

no but from then there’s higher possibility of denial as well

[glacial nova]

has anyone gotten off uw madison waitlist yet

[rapid ruin]

I saw earlier in the thread someone gotten off

[wintry hemlock]

nah. i've heard of people getting off as late as july (although very rare)

[dawn flare]

august lol

berkeley released some early august lmao

[wintry hemlock]

harvard sent me an email saying i had a status update. i was rejected. they might call accepted students?

im visarts and nuerosci and i got info yesterday

[wintry hemlock]

jesus christ that's stressful

[dawn flare]

id still def take it

berkeley is my dream

but id even take ucsc wl in august sooo

[hearty vale]

u got rejected yesterday?

[wintry hemlock]

nvm two days ago from the waitlist

[hearty vale]

damn thats wild i didnt evn know they did that

[wintry hemlock]

my ability to understand time is bollocks apparently u_u

[hearty vale]

i thjought they just sent acceptances and said waitlist closed

i mean yale is tuff like u chilling

[wintry hemlock]

well waitlist closed is basically a reject

[hearty vale]

congrats on that

[bleak tendon]

you would choose UCSC over perdue?

[hearty vale]

ya

in state maybe

[dawn flare]

yeag

[wintry hemlock]

ty! i actually got in off the waitlist lol

[hearty vale]

holyyy

[dawn flare]

W congrats!!

[wintry hemlock]

thx :D

[hardy gate]

The whole application process feels like a mystery to me ToT

[wintry hemlock]

fr

(cough UCI)

[gaunt jay]

exactly <3

[gaunt jay]

keep waiting

[hearty vale]

i got rejected all ucs for oos cs and they waitlisted me

idk whats up w them

like thanks but

[gaunt jay]

based on their year's events, there will def be less yield and therefore more waitlist acceptences

logically speaking

not sure what will happen no one really knows

[twilit harness]

ig yea

[wintry hemlock]

oos cs geez that's hard

[gaunt jay]

how is everyone coping with the wait

ive been refreshing the status update for my schools each morning

obv counterproductive

[dawn flare]

same

[modest viper]

what school are you waiting for

[hearty vale]

MICHY

[dawn flare]

getting unhealthy how much im monitoring my wlists

[gaunt jay]

pton, dartmouth, columbia

just the first two really

[gaunt jay]

GOOD LUCK my friend goes there (ann arbor) and she loves it a lot

hopefully it works out for u

[hearty vale]

praying

otherwise its purdue cs

which is still fie but

[gaunt jay]

still fire esp for cs

are u in state for umich?

[hearty vale]

nah oos

mass

[gaunt jay]

even more impressive

keep us updated

[dawn flare]

PURDUEEEE RAHHHHH 🔥

[bleak tendon]

REAL

[hearty vale]

pretty sure they let <20 kids off a year for umich cs 💀

[wintry hemlock]

i mean you could be one of em!

[hearty vale]

nah there are always thiose cracked kids that get into cs in like ivies and then stay on the waitlist for fun

maybe!

[wintry hemlock]

ppl do that? tf that's so stupid

[visual bear]

same…

but only bc the may 15 deadline just passed

[gaunt jay]

LIKE THOSE PEOPLE WHO GET INTO YALE EARLY (and don't have financials as a consideration) and don't withdraw from state schools

[hearty vale]

yeah its like an ego thing

i dont get it

[gaunt jay]

there's a girl from my city who full-on committed to harvard in december but did not withdraw from local schools and posted her results on her story

local schools that my best friends would've loved to go to had she not taken away their spots

[gaunt jay]

like you said

it is an ego thing

[visual bear]

that’s so irritating, sorry dude :(

[gaunt jay]

ucs?

ohh the extended deadline bc of fafsa

yeah i rlly do hope they start pulling people off

it would be nice to have a choice between addtl schools

[visual bear]

yup

[wintry hemlock]

WHAT THE FUCK

DUDE

THATS SO FUCKED UP

posting on stories as a flex too what 😭

[cyan heart]

Upenn

[hardy gate]

Any idea if Duke's gonna do any more waves, I feel like they took off way lesser people than usual this year, even with both waves combined

[stiff hazel]

any waves from columbia?

[wintry hemlock]

probably? i know at least a couple people who left duke after the two waves recently because of other waitlists

[olive karma]

where were u committed to before yale

[wintry hemlock]

duke haha

[hardy gate]

k thanks 👍

[modest hill]

@woven pier for ur fast on usc does it have a system error?

[woven pier]

unfortunately i dont qualify for any financial aid (immigration things yay 😋)

so i have no clue 🫡

sorry for misleading you, i’m still from cali i swear LOL

[modest hill]

Rip. Ic. My financial fast portal is giving system error so I’m kinda confused. And wait so ur going full tuition?

[woven pier]

no, i have the presidential scholarship

[modest hill]

Ah ic ic

[woven pier]

from the psat

[modest hill]

I need to grind scholarships this is so bad 😭

[woven pier]

full pay usc is scary 😭😭

[modest hill]

lol fr

[keen depot]

True

Ffs

[bitter oriole]

does anyone know when UIUC waitlsit comes out?

[twilit harness]

i dont think so

some ppl got off on may 10th

but someone on cc said they called the office on may 15th who said they haven't yet started releasing ppl

idk

its weird

[vale grove]

Ucla oos? 🥺🥺🥺🥺

[valid steeple]

some got off last thursday

[vale grove]

For eng right

[mental sky]

Upenn Wharton over those??

Or just cas

[mental sky]

if it wasn’t for Princeton my aid for upenn was gonna be so ass lmao

[solar horizon]

Last time i heard someone get off was about 10 days ago

[clever obsidian]

ik ppl who got off wellesley wl

oh yeah

[solar horizon]

When ?

[clever obsidian]

likemany days ago

[solar horizon]

Domestic or intls?

[clever obsidian]

dom

[solar horizon]

Ty

[upbeat musk]

I am once again asking for the mit waitlist decisions PLSPSLPSLPLS

actually it’s weekend rn :(( unfortunate

[gaunt jay]

wharton

i def shouldn't have put myself on the columbia wl

i was just thinking about financial aid in that moment

[gaunt jay]

so where are you going now

[viscid viper]

Is there a chance of having a second wave of engineering admits off the waitlist for UCLA?

I heard that a few of my friends got off, but I didn’t, so I’m hoping there’s still a chance I can get off too

[sonic hollow]

probably

however, there's no way to tell when that could happen

[visual bear]

it’s possible (not everyone who got off might accept for example), but it might be less likely now. no way to tell :( have hope! <3

[proven violet]

Tweaking over Michigan bro

[rain crane]

im sorry

keep ur chest up tho! u never know ig.

[mental sky]

I’m going to UPenn

it was rlly close b/w the two tho

[mental sky]

lmao I got no aid from Columbia immediately didn’t consider it

[mental sky]

if u do get off Princeton wl u gonna major in ORFE?

or finance

[gaunt jay]

neither

spia

so public policy

[mental sky]

interesting did u get into hunt an?

[gaunt jay]

omg rlly they are so selfish

[mental sky]

Huntsman

[gaunt jay]

i didn't apply to huntsman

not a fan of languages

[mental sky]

ah ic

[mental sky]

yes lol

[gaunt jay]

what was the main tiebreaker? congrats on the choices tho!!

[mental sky]

environment I live near Princeton and take classes there, so I got a feel of the environment

Philly is more lively and I liked it

[gaunt jay]

very nice, yeah social life is def important

[mental sky]

plus UPenn has a lot more opportunities for my major

[gaunt jay]

what are you studying?

[mental sky]

Neuroscience

[gaunt jay]

ohh 100%

like all the labs

and then the hospital system

[mental sky]

hmm

[gaunt jay]

good job

[mental sky]

lol thx

[atomic whale]

Please does anyone have any info on Princeton waitlist decisions

[mental sky]

No idea my friend got wl didn’t get anything yet

[atomic whale]

Ok
Thank you!

[mental sky]

wut r u leaning towards

if u get off any of ur waitlists

[gaunt jay]

def princeton

princeton > dartmouth/penn > columbia

aid is a big factor

princeton and dartmouth have good aid for my income bracket

[mental sky]

Hmm Princetons aid is unmatched

I was so surprised by how much they gave me

[gaunt jay]

ohh and then u helped you appeal for penn?

did they price match

[mental sky]

Ye

[mental sky]

5k off so basically yea, originally they were 40k off

[gaunt jay]

holy

40k is a huge diff

wow

[mental sky]

ye lol

upenn finaid is garbage if ur not lower class or smth

Middle class and ppl higher get fucked

[gaunt jay]

they take into account savings

[mental sky]

Ik

[gaunt jay]

so middle class earning families with high savings are screwed over

[mental sky]

Hmmm

[gaunt jay]

personally

this is anecdotal

[violet spindle]

any news on umich

[left fjord]

my fast portal is broken too lol

[gaunt jay]

ik someone who's efc is 30k on a 100-150k income. yet ik someone who's efc is 70k on a 150k-175k income bracket

just shows how income is not the main determinator

[mental sky]

yup

meant to reply to ur other msg mb

[gaunt jay]

it's okay

penn is great

but idk about wharton

like the pressure to go into ib

[mental sky]

[mental sky]

Yeah lol the influence is heavy

[gaunt jay]

just penn's tho

for quaker day

[mental sky]

Hmmm

[mental sky]

Even kids not in Wharton tend to go into IB

Strong influence

[gaunt jay]

when you took classes at princeton, what was wrong with the vibes?

[mental sky]

Nothing wrong I just didn’t like it

It’s downtown

So nothing much going on rlly

you’ll have to go outta campus to do more stuff there’s not a lotta things to do

[gaunt jay]

ive heard about the cas econ majors who transfer into wharton

[mental sky]

There’s a metro there u can take to Philly or nyc some of my friends at Princeton do that

[gaunt jay]

kk thanks

well realistically

[mental sky]

yeah internal to Wharton is p hard tho or a dual degree program for that matter

[gaunt jay]

u and me both: upenn '28

[gaunt jay]

wait can u acc transfer into a dual degree program

[mental sky]

Wait let’s go to dms if u don’t mind

[gaunt jay]

[median mason]

No haven’t heard anything for Michigan. I was sure they would start this past Friday. Gotta be Monday.

[modest hill]

Ah so it wasn’t just me ty

[hybrid vortex]

it was down for maintenance yesterday

[modest hill]

Ah ok

[hybrid vortex]

they probably have to reactivate it since you were admitted lol

[modest hill]

You think they are updating my financial portal to release my financial package. Cuz my housing app came yesterday

[hybrid vortex]

the housing portal is a general thing that’s up year-round

i’ll check my fast portal to see if it’s weird but yours might just be delayed because of the maitenance/financial aid office not being open on weekends

[left fjord]

did u get an email ab the housing app?

[modest hill]

Ya

[left fjord]

ohh did u alr commit yet or no?

[hybrid vortex]

is this what your fast portal looks like lol

they may have had problems with maintenance

[left fjord]

yup

[hybrid vortex]

$70k in tuition and their student doc systems are straight out of the early 2000s

[pastel laurel]

This is not the place to have discussions outside of waitlists btw

[turbid terrace]

did purdue waitlist come out

or ucsd

[modest hill]

Yes

[slender cedar]

ucla waitlist movement for in state?

[inland stag]

Only engineering and maybe cs I think

[modest hill]

R u going to ucsd now?

and ucla PLEASE

[inland stag]

Yeah I think that’s the plan now

Are you going usc or still hoping for sd or la?

[modest hill]

Did u get in for cs or was it DS?

[modest hill]

SD maybe, LA yes

[inland stag]

No I am humanities

Good luck

[modest hill]

Tysm

[broken moss]

Duke

[dull turtle]

has anyone gotten off the UCSC waitlist

[clever obsidian]

did u get off?

[clever obsidian]

USC?

[modest hill]

@woven pier do we have until May 31 to decide to commit or not?

[modest hill]

Santa Cruz

[clever obsidian]

sorry m bad

[dull turtle]

uc santa cruz lol

[modest hill]

I don’t think anyone has but I withdrew my ucsc application for cs

[clever obsidian]

i dont really know any west coast schools T_T

[modest hill]

It’s fine all gud

[woven pier]

i’m confused cause the email says may 31st

but the letter says august 1st

[violet spindle]

anything happen for umich

[woven pier]

so we need to speak w a counselor and check, lmk if u find anything out

[modest hill]

But we have more time tho right not just one week to decide

Cuz I don’t have my financial package so I can’t make a decision yet

[modest hill]

I’m just gunna assume May 31

Where did u hear August 1

[woven pier]

yeah better safe than sorry

[woven pier]

it’s in the letter

[modest hill]

Ah ic. But it is May 31st or August tho correct?

Not this week

[modest hill]

mine says this

its a little different

[late stump]

I got the 300 waived off

I believe u can still do it

[timber plover]

Any word about mich or cmu movement?

[stiff hazel]

hey, if you’re not considering columbia at all, (cuz you got into upenn and you’d prefer there over columbia right?), would you maybe consider getting off the waitlist? not in a rude way just if youre not considering it anyways?

[dawn flare]

cmu is never gonna move

😔

[twilit harness]

yea please🙏

[drifting viper]

has anyone called cornell coe recently?

last time i called (almost 2 weeks ago) they said they hadn't gone to waitlist yet

wondering if anything has changed

[violet spindle]

anything on umich

[proven violet]

Looked everywhere and dont think an LSA wave came out yet. Supposedely they weren't super strict on their May 1st deadline and are waiting a little longer, hopefully next week is our week

STAMPS and architecture already started tho

[violet spindle]

wait are their waitlist offers only going to be LSA? not engineering?

i applied for engineering and got waitlisted, am i not going to get into the engineering school? are they only going to give spots for LSA?

[proven violet]

Oh no, I just assumed LSA cuz most other schools came out. Don’t think I’ve heard anything from CoE just yet. It’s one of their bigger schools so that’ll take time too

I’m checking rn and 2 people last year got off on May 20th, so prolly next Saturday is yours

Gl!

[fierce kettle]

yeah same

[dawn flare]

yea no ucsc movement yet

[hearty vale]

they do it on saturdays?

i thought its fridays 3 est

[hybrid vortex]

i’m abt to call cmu tomorrow to beg from any scraps of information they’ll give me on the school of drama waitlist

[lofty patrol]

the intent to enroll is due 5/31 but ur deposit is not due till 8/1

[hybrid vortex]

earliest rd deadline, most famous alumni, and last school to find out about admissions during their wave bullshit🤥

[weary anvil]

any northwestern movemnt?

[plain comet]

My friend got off last week

[weary anvil]

do you knwo what they got off for?

and where they're from?

[proven violet]

Not necessarily. But its always been either friday or saturday

And the timing is different. Some get theirs at noon based on past years

[hearty vale]

well that would just be cali time

west coast no?

but yeah ig could be saturday too

idk if they want me they want me

[strange sonnet]

Y’all know when the uci waitlist decisions dropping?

[gaunt jay]

dw i did

i didn't write a loci

therefore they're not considering me even

and financial aid is a big determinator which is why i put myself on the wl at first!

not because i wanted to take someone's spot away purposefully

[cerulean spruce]

any movement on berk

[dawn flare]

not that ik of :(

[cerulean spruce]

rippp

[modest hill]

Ah alr

[earnest hinge]

[proven violet]

Yeah I just got it

[thin hedge]

does anyone know when JHU or Rice waitlist comes out

[hybrid vortex]

there’s usually no specific date that it comes out because waitlists are rolling

[timber plover]

Wait i didnt. What does it look like? (Not in spam either)

[timber plover]

Ig im cooked 💀💀💀

Which school did u apply for?

[celest orchid]

no portal astro

[errant burrow]

Yeah

[visual bear]

[dawn flare]

Ok 😔

[jaunty bough]

[hot stone]

I just got off the BU waitlist without a loci 😭

[dawn flare]

[celest orchid]

[dawn flare]

Erm… its email astrology, which isn’t banned 🤓 ☝️

But ok fine 😔

[plucky ore]

Lowk weird af considering coe’s seen the most movement

[light nebula]

[barren trout]

GIRL THAT ISNT PORTAL ASTRO ITS MISSING OUT ON AN EMAIL 😭

[wraith sky]

yeah I got the email

temperature survey

[celest orchid]

"omg i didnt get an email im so rejected aren't i" 🤓

portal astro is basically anything other than an acceptance/rejection letter that tells you your decision 😭

[barren trout]

its facts

😭

ok fineeee

[celest orchid]

🙏

who needs cmu anyway

jhu 🔛🔝

[barren trout]

honestly real

[celest orchid]

nah

maybe in your circles

and also its still banned in this server

for a reason

[dawn flare]

Nah it wasn’t

[proven violet]

Hopefully on Friday

[modest hill]

I got it also

CMU are u finally gunna accept me

[slim geyser]

All the Dietrich fellas got this email right

[crisp hinge]

No portal astrology 🤓

[slim geyser]

Shut the hell up ‼️

[hybrid vortex]

Thank you!!

[flat cradle]

MIT is out I think

[fierce kettle]

yeah I didn’t get an email from cmu and I’m wl

[slim geyser]

Did you apply to Dietrich?

[fierce kettle]

nope

I’m college of engineering

[oak citrus]

ok slay so they just hate coe

[wide oriole]

rejected by mit waitlist

[modest viper]

maybe their class is full

[winter sinew]

same

given they took a while to decide, they probably took some people

[wide oriole]

ya :( didn’t expect to get off but this still kinda sucks

[oak citrus]

does anyone know anything about rice or cornell coe waitlist

[hearty vale]

Someone from my school recently got off Cornell waitlist for Econ

Idk about coe

[hard vigil]

Yeah same :(

Oh well

Im not too torn but it does suck

[distant lodge]

Nah for some schools this is literally true though

Cornell for instance sends out a feeler email the weekend before they accept you

[bleak tendon]

yall do UC waitlists for UCSD and berk come out on days other than friday

[distant lodge]

If you get the email it's literally a sign of essentially getting in

[dawn flare]

check past cc threads for the days when the I GOT IN messages were sent

[quaint monolith]

yea, but like... why are they asking if we are STILL interested on wl

[mental sky]

Yale literally never moves lol

I’ve heard that only 4-5 ppl get off but u could be one of them who knows

[crisp hinge]

they are goofy 👍

[jolly dune]

MIT’s WL is out

[stone barn]

i know like 10 personally

[hearty vale]

someone got off today at 3:20 for poli sci lsa

[dusk ice]

uva already released 2 waves

[buoyant chasm]

@chrome moat nothing on college confidential for penn either it seems

[hearty vale]

i think a bunch of umich waitlists came out today for lsa looks like its over for me

[dusk ice]

[winter sinew]

Did anyone get into mit?

[hearty vale]

yes

alr know of 2 people who got off

[winter sinew]

Wack I’m guessing they probably done with wl now

[hearty vale]

im assuming more came out

[lone token]

Any news on Stanford waitlist?

[cyan heart]

Any ideas about UPenn ?

[mental sky]

damn but i mean still yale doesnt accept many off the waitlist compared to some others

[cyan heart]

UPenn is literally dead this cycle I have only heard a handful (like 6) and they were mostly in state Philly students

[solar horizon]

Any news about Wellesley today?

[olive prism]

losing my mind abt umich wl

[hearty vale]

its over for us

[olive prism]

yeah i know. rip

[dawn flare]

#✨-celebration-station message

[olive prism]

any movement for umich engineering tho? or does it practically never move

[hearty vale]

idk looks like only lsa

[olive prism]

ok so i can still be delulu 🙏

[hearty vale]

[dusk ice]

anyone know when columbia is coming out? any rumours or speculation?

[plush sapphire]

does anyone know anything abt upenn

[violet spindle]

wait so umich engineering isn't out yet tho right

[regal bison]

[dawn flare]

yeah

[hearty vale]

not that ive heard of

[chrome moat]

Nah we’re fully just aired bro lmao

[violet spindle]

[proven violet]

Yo what fr?

[hearty vale]

[proven violet]

I didnt know LSA came out

[hearty vale]

hopefully there is one more wave and i make it]

coping

[proven violet]

Yeah im giving up lol

imma commit to rutgers today and get this over with

Btw college of engineering has come out too

[hearty vale]

oh damn

@violet spindle sorry to disappoint

[proven violet]

this one hits hard ngl

[hearty vale]

i was cs and i knew the chances were mad low but it hurts yea'

[proven violet]

Econ here, was praying but guess not. Was my dream school 😭

[faint anvil]

Any cmu or gatech movement

[hearty vale]

been my dream school since i did research there

thought that gave me a shot

ig not

[dawn flare]

cmu hahahahaaha
itll never move lol

[proven violet]

A lot of people have gotten off so it seems like a good waitlist year at least, happy for those who got off

[proven violet]

Ya i got recs from staff and alumni for there and was really hopin

[faint anvil]

Both cmu and gatech had like 50 ppl come off last yr 😭

[hearty vale]

there will likely be a second wave then

some will say no

[proven violet]

imma keep my hopes low 😭

[hearty vale]

yeah same

[dawn flare]

this year cmu is infinitely more scuffed lol

[faint anvil]

They waitlisted like most ppl 💀

[hearty vale]

they waitlisted hella people idt they got through all the apps they wanted to get through

i predict a lot of people will get off

buit there are also a lot of people on it so

[violet spindle]

rip 😭

[proven violet]

ya maybe, im hoping for those who do

[thorn crane]

Don’t bet on that

[hearty vale]

im not even on it but its absurd the number of people that they waitlisted

[thorn crane]

Def but I don’t trust them to use waitlist lmao

[hearty vale]

i swear they messed that shit up

[thorn crane]

Colleges love to do a ton of waitlists but not admit many

[hearty vale]

man

[thorn crane]

Michigan is notoriously bad with waitlists

Maybe they got better tho

[bleak tendon]

PLEASEEEEE

[winter sinew]

CMU was strange this year. Apparently they disregarded the award section of the app completely

[dawn flare]

https://tenor.com/view/cr1tikal-penguinz0-meme-woo-yeah-baby-gif-19316511

[hearty vale]

? lmfao

[winter sinew]

They wl all seniors on the us imo team 💀

But not everyone accepts it right? Soooo

[dawn flare]

👍

17 rejected, 214 wled

smh

[hearty vale]

LMAO

[winter sinew]

More accepts than rejects x_x

[dawn flare]

i mean cmu has a 100% yield from my school, so

[fierce kettle]

ohhh

[dawn flare]

yea so... ig cmu is a lost cause 😔

[fierce kettle]

Berkeley pls 🙏🏾

[dawn flare]

berkeley seems more hopeful :D

we pray 🙏

[fierce kettle]

yeahhh cause not too many ppl got wl at cal

[violet spindle]

since umich engineering came out im guessing there's no hope right

[dawn flare]

yeahh, and theres been 0 movement so far, so theyre still deciding :D

[dawn flare]

ive noticed a lot of wlists come out in waves, like every few weeks they release a wave

not sure abt mich specifically tho

[thorn crane]

Never bank on waitlists

Fall in love with ur current options

That’s what my strategy was at least

[hearty vale]

EW

i hate college

[thorn crane]

LMAO

Starting early huh

[visual bear]

any thoughts on uc davis, hadn’t moved at all. sir was may 15

[dawn flare]

[buoyant chasm]

[long fractal]

Any idea ab UPenn's waitlist, is there still a chance to get off it as an int'l

[sacred sable]

Any Hamilton, conn college, or Wesleyan wl movement at all?

[remote kettle]

[modest hill]

Hopefully some Dietrich get off this Friday

[modest hill]

Scs too?

[slim geyser]

[modest hill]

Ah ic. Hopefully some waves come this Friday

[calm cove]

Does anyone have an opinion on if there will be a second wave for brown

[slim geyser]

🤞

[weary anvil]

any northwestern updates?

[mellow plume]

i just got accepted into UCSB off the waitlist!!! 🥳 unfortunately now i have no idea if i want to choose it over uci and have one week to decide 😭 i originally liked the feel of UCSB better -- people say they're much happier there than they do at uci + there's better social life there -- but i've gotten comfortable and become content with my decision to commit to uci -- it also has a better undeclared program, better dorm situation, and doesn't have the party school reputation

[wintry hemlock]

Oh my god congrats!!!!!!!!

Choosing waitlist or sticking with your original school is def a hard one but both are amazing choices!!!!!!

[urban jolt]

the movement on the waitlist seems more OOS than instate

from what it looks like

[hearty vale]

wel im oos

gg

second wave might be just in state

[urban jolt]

praying

im instate

[mellow plume]

tysm!!!

[mental sky]

haha 0% yield at my school lol

no one here goes there if they get in

[misty summit]

Good luck to all y'all on the umich waitlist, and congrats to the ones who got in!!

[heady parcel]

has umich LSA wl started?

[atomic whale]

social scene and just environment there i guess

also i’m cognitive science

[urban jolt]

they sent out offers around 3

seems mostly OOS

[heady parcel]

fk im oos

welp

[dawn flare]

Daaaaaaaam

[heady parcel]

how abt has berk started?

[bleak tendon]

nope

hopefully soon 🤞

[heady parcel]

there's still a chance for haas right?

[fierce kettle]

[heady parcel]

cuz for umich there's no chance for ross

[dawn flare]

We don’t rly know about Berkeley

[heady parcel]

sighhhh

[dawn flare]

:(

[heady parcel]

well i should focus on being happy with wisco

[fierce kettle]

what was your major for cal?
