[fierce kettle]

[modest hill]

Wishing yall luck for berk

[bleak tendon]

TY

[bleak tendon]

Where are you going btw, USC committed?

[primal frost]

could yield be good this year for berk?

i dont see any other reason for them holding

the wls

this faar back

but then why wouldnt they say that

[bleak tendon]

Uhh idk
a lot of my friends are going but thats because my school is berkeley feeder

[primal frost]

I felt like berk yield would be normal with the # of cross admits esp in coe

but

guess not

and the stats? that came out (could be fake) seemed very cautious

[neat citrus]

What if yield is so bad so many of us are getting off that it’s taking so long to finalize everything

[bleak tendon]

What stats

[primal frost]

like def not overadmit

[neat citrus]

😁

[primal frost]

lemme find them

[bleak tendon]

Damn that copium

[primal frost]

at least for coe

[modest hill]

Still not decided

[primal frost]

https://www.reddit.com/r/berkeley/comments/1ch49uz/cals_20242025_firstyear_admit_rates_by_most/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

EECS was comparitively free this year

according to this

7.6 compared to the normal 3-5%

for ref

EECS is normally arouund a 450-500 person cohort

cs is 150

[bleak tendon]

Wheres data sci

[primal frost]

not competitive enough ig

this is prob t5 competitive majors

over histtory

*recent history

ds is new

[bleak tendon]

Isnt this for this year tho

[primal frost]

I mean

this isnt official

its a

"alleged"

message to counselors

to help them formulate class profiles

for their hs

[bleak tendon]

o

[primal frost]

ucs work closely with a lot of hs

the college industrial complex goes till the state 😔

deep state is run by stanford

[bleak tendon]

Yea

[stone barn]

Yuh

[dawn flare]

Saaame

Why is Berkeley basically the only uc that hasn’t moved

[hearty vale]

cuz it has high yield rate

[neat citrus]

Isn’t it lower then uclas

And they got a lot of movement

[hearty vale]

it is?

well its probably comparable

idk tho

[neat citrus]

Maybe our graduating class is just mega freaks that all like Berkeley more

[bleak tendon]

Me and u buddy

[crisp hinge]

app cmu isnt accepting any from mcs/scs/information system

over

😭

[forest pivot]

pitt waitlisted:
my bf got off the wl the 22nd

[oak citrus]

:/ any info on cmu BESA waitlist?

[dawn flare]

How do u know

[modest hill]

How do u know?

Oh wait CMU alr pulled people out of Heinz

[pulsar dragon]

When did they confirm this?

[crisp hinge]

someone called ao (such info is from cmu 2028 waitlist forum

https://talk.collegeconfidential.com/t/cmu-waitlist-class-of-2028/3662870

[dawn flare]

I trust a random guy on the internet blindly

[crisp hinge]

apparently they didnt take any last year tho

(

or very few

im not expectign to be accepted anyway lo

[oak citrus]

when the waitlist warriors are actually whomp whomping 🤡🤡🤡

[cerulean spruce]

No it’s cus ca pushed fafsa + cadaa deadline back rlly far legally

[cerulean spruce]

also ik at least one person not going to berk

[flat cradle]

A lot of MET kids ended up turning them down so that should open up a seat in both haas and engineering right?

Or just a seat for met?

[cerulean spruce]

idk how that work lmao

[eternal gull]

any upenn or duke movement?

[long fractal]

Noppeee, awaiting for the first oneeee

[celest orchid]

why are they turning it down /gen

[timber plover]

For a lot of oos kids the cost is just not justifiable no matter how good the school is esp when they are smart enough to get full rides at their state schools or get into good private schools with good financial aid

[heady parcel]

praying for haas

[north thistle]

please let me know if anything happened?

[winter sinew]

90% of the people online are not trolls
Of course take it with a grain of salt. I would imagine that this is true tho

[buoyant chasm]

screaming like actually

[dawn flare]

UCSC sending me promo emails TODAY like here’s why ucsc is great while im being ghosted on the waitlist should be a crime

[hybrid vortex]

with college admissions (especially waitlists) you should really only trust it if it’s coming directly from the school

[dawn flare]

I called Berkeley and they said during or before august

So that’s basically all the info we have

😔

[celest orchid]

august is crazy

[nocturne dawn]

Any nyu waitlist come yet yet?

[flat cradle]

Met cross admit with HYPSM is wild and a lot of kids have trouble turning down such well known schools for Berkeley.

[celest orchid]

yeah but MET>>>>>

[flat cradle]

A lot of kids also were afraid of being limited to the startup space bc if u so MET you only have time for school + startup related ECs. Ik a few who turned them down bc they wanted to branch out into politics, music, etc. and met just didn’t give them the time to do that

It’s an incredible program tho and the people who picked it basically have a straight shot to the c suite by the time they’re 30

[celest orchid]

oh thats true

[hot stone]

Not everyone has the money and hypsm gives aid

[flat cradle]

Met does throw some crazy scholarships tho

I got 60k but one girl argued hers up to north of 150

All merit too

Like if they accept you they’ll work to get you there

[hot stone]

Sixty k a year?

[stone barn]

wait maybe i should have applied

[flat cradle]

No wait it was 80 mb 💀 and no 20k a year

[hot stone]

Oh 😭

[flat cradle]

Honestly if u wanna do startup you should’ve

[stone barn]

nah stanford clears icl

[hot stone]

Yeah I mean paying sixty k + a year is still no joke

[flat cradle]

For met admit weekend they literally had CEOs come and pitch their companies to get us to intern

[stone barn]

i think the floor is higher at met but ceiling is lower

[flat cradle]

I had a bother scholarship they knew about so they didn’t give me more

[celest orchid]

damn

[hot stone]

Ohh

[dawn flare]

Y’all are only going to Berkeley Harvard and Stanford?
Failures smh

[celest orchid]

ikr not even t1 smh /s

[flat cradle]

The ceiling is high at any T30 met just gives u a faster way to get there

[dawn flare]

No way

[flat cradle]

Honestly the ceiling is high at community college if u play ur cards right. That’s one thing I realized when picking where to go is that college is just an accelerator of ur ambitions, it doesn’t determine what you want to do just how fast you’ll get there

[flat cradle]

Princeton isn’t T5 change my mind

[hot stone]

— Harvard ‘28

[stone barn]

im talking specifically for startups

[celest orchid]

i mean idk much about pton but i've heard their undergrad focus is really strong

[celest orchid]

how do you em dash

[hot stone]

Idk I can’t even type a normal dash so I googled dash and em came up

[celest orchid]

LOL

[stone barn]

—

on a mac it is option shift dash

[celest orchid]

shift dash is underscore here rip

[stone barn]

• – —

wait

here - – —

[celest orchid]

kirk is a mac worth it

[stone barn]

yes

[hearty vale]

what major r u

i have like an old macbook but idk if that'll do for cs

some people say a new mac would be good others say get like some chunky amd laptop

[stone barn]

cs/math and econ

nah u can do w a mac

[hearty vale]

ah okay

i like macs now

[bleak tendon]

Theres no fuckin way

[leaden haven]

it’s a sign fr

[dull scarab]

stanford is done right

[nova arrow]

Was there movement for UCSD

This week

[tawny crypt]

Yes I got in on Friday

[modest viper]

are you sticking to tulane ?

[tawny crypt]

I am!

[lone token]

I haven’t heard anything back yet

[oak citrus]

wait HI fellow wave!!!

[dawn flare]

😔

It seemed like a clueless intern who just said that to every question I asked

[bleak tendon]

in state or oos?

[regal bison]

probably just trying to be as vague as possible

[dawn flare]

Sadly either that or they just don’t know 😔

[tawny crypt]

oos

[bleak tendon]

Yea hopefully

I hope this coming week will have more movement

[dawn flare]

fr

Let’s hope they’ve been working hard analyzing their yield

[bleak tendon]

yessir

[river eagle]

anyone on the waitlist for cornell cas? any updates there?

[fluid dagger]

i got off the cas waitlist on 5/13

[rugged dome]

Me, I got an email abt confirm continued interest on Friday

Duke's campus is amazing

[dawn flare]

Dam

I think u may like duke lol

[vale wharf]

[dawn flare]

Lmao

It’s sucks when ur wled from ur dream school

[vale wharf]

[dawn flare]

I hope u get in :D

[clever obsidian]

real

[clever obsidian]

yes </33

[vale wharf]

I got rejected from my dream colleges but apparently one of them (WashU) has decently high transfer rates

[clever obsidian]

hopefully theres another wave praying for u

[vale wharf]

Ngl the UCs were so messy this year
One of my friends got into Berkeley but rejected from UCD and UCSD it made no sense -_-

[dawn flare]

Dammm glglgl

[stray flume]

Anyone who applied to CMU Dietrich college didn’t get the waitlist email last week ?

[dawn flare]

I KNOW RIGHT
I was rejected from riverside but waitlisted Berkeley like huh????

[clever obsidian]

im so tired of waiting and hoping for duke its like every day i look in a2c to see any updates its so bad i hope they can close the WL soon so i can move on sooner 😦

[vale wharf]

And that friends gf got accepted to UCSD and UCI but also rejected from UCD

[dawn flare]

I dietriched and got the email

I didn’t know some Dietrich didn’t get one

[vale wharf]

How the heck were you rejected from riverside

Riverside sent me a special offer basically guaranteeing my acceptance there

[clever obsidian]

theyre opping

[vale wharf]

And it was a guarantee apparently since they let me in -_-

[dawn flare]

Yeah riverside cs is scuffed 🤷‍♂️

[clever obsidian]

[dawn flare]

But i got Purdue so I ain’t complaining

[dawn flare]

AI

Not cs

[clever obsidian]

bye thets crazy

[vale wharf]

Ah well im doing much easier major (International Relations)

[dawn flare]

Nah riverside is still p good

[vale wharf]

Except for Georgetown was the only place where i knew IR would be harder than usual

[dawn flare]

I wudve gone to ucr instead of Purdue if I got it lol

Only uc I got is Merced lmao

And ucsc and ucb wlists are dead rn

[clever obsidian]

LOL tbh i dont know any UC's bc im east cost

[vale wharf]

Im not friends with him but one of the guys at my school was complaining how he got rejected from UT engineering

But he got into Purdue engineering -_-

[dawn flare]

Ohh yeah ucs are a big deal in cali lol

[clever obsidian]

haha

[dawn flare]

Lmaooo

[vale wharf]

Like wtf he got into purdue for engineering and its literally better than UT for that

[clever obsidian]

maybe theylll come back bc dead means big wave soon right?

[oak citrus]

did purdue give any of y’all good aid ?

[vale wharf]

Im not sure if he was genuinely upset or if it was bc of UT being much cheaper since were in texas

[dawn flare]

No lol

I’m paying full oos

[oak citrus]

o damn

[dawn flare]

Hopefullyyyyy

[clever obsidian]

duke pls 😊 🙏

[dawn flare]

Gl :D

[clever obsidian]

u too

[oak citrus]

yea they wanted my family to live off of 6k a year so purdue wasn’t a viable choice lmao

[dawn flare]

Tyty

[vale wharf]

The guy ik is going to UMich for engineering in the end so

[dawn flare]

Wth that’s messed up

[vale wharf]

Im 90% sure he wanted to get UT engineering bc its cheaper

UC Merced sent me an offer of like 20k/yr which would have made my college only like $15k
But I declined it bc my pare ts told me theyd pay for my full stuff

parents

[oak citrus]

purr

ok cornell coe news anything

rice coe ?

umich coe?

ughhhhh

[gaunt jay]

wait why

why penn over duke

is it the preprof environment?

[clever obsidian]

?? u mean other way

yes

for pre-med

[gaunt jay]

OOPS sorry yes

for premed, penn is rlly good too bc of the hospital system

so even if duke doesnt work out, penn is rlly rlly strong for premeds

[clever obsidian]

yesss im so grateful taht i got into upeen its just that duke has always been a big dream for me and i love thier culture so much

[stone barn]

i hope u get in 🙂

[clever obsidian]

aww ily ty

[hot stone]

Me asf

I wish Duke just sent out their last wave (if there’s one)

I want to call so bad but I don’t want to seem desperate 💀

[clever obsidian]

last time i called they lowkey got mad but maybe they were having a bad day IDK!!!

[dawn flare]

email thru an alternate email

[clever obsidian]

i mightjust call anon

[clever obsidian]

EXACtly!!!

[hot stone]

Maybe I should

[hot stone]

I called anon and they didn’t pick up 💀 liek the admissions officers someone else picked up and switched me to them

[regal mason]

Same with dartmouth istg

there s just been radio silence

[hot stone]

They should just let us off the wl fr

[hot stone]

People allegedly got off dart

I’m also on there so I’ve been tracking

We know fs the wl isn’t closed though!

[regal mason]

Ya tho it seems pretty shady

like a friend of a friend

and apparently someone called and they said they haven't taken anyone off yet

[hot stone]

Yeah apparently someone got off reddit though

[hot stone]

Really

The cc post i saw said they weren’t sure if they were using wl yet

[clever obsidian]

ohh yeah

[hot stone]

Which is crazy cause it’s almost June…

[regal mason]

Ik either its a huge wave or they re about to close it

[clever obsidian]

i called in and asked to speak with an AO and then the AO was like "the FAQs are there" i was likeoh..

[hot stone]

Yeah prob

[regal mason]

but if they close it they normally send like an email or something

[hot stone]

💀

[hot stone]

Yeah they sent one last year on May 6th

[hot stone]

Does Duke email when wl is closed

[clever obsidian]

yes

[hot stone]

Ok good

Only one of my nine wls has closed so far shockingly

[clever obsidian]

im tempted to not check my inbox until june and see if i get any duke emails

[hot stone]

Might give you oeace of mind

I wish I could do that but school

[clever obsidian]

ohh

is school stil in for u rn

oh mb sorry waitlist chat

[hot stone]

[modest hill]

ONE MORE TIME

[dawn flare]

[dawn flare]

[modest hill]

bro this year was truly an emotional rollercoaster

[dawn flare]

daily reminder to withdraw from the berkeley waitlist if ur not gonna go

especially for data sci
and for eecs
and for applied math
and for film or media
and for cog sci
and for econ
and for sidewalk history
and for chem
and for cs

[celest orchid]

@ruby 🙄 /j

[dawn flare]

wait shud i not be doing the remiders?

[celest orchid]

no i tagged her because she's on the Berkeley wl but likes UCLA more but I added the /j because she has her reasons for possibly going to Berkeley

[dawn flare]

ohhhhhhhh i see lmao

[modest hill]

hopefully berk works out for yall

[dawn flare]

tyty :D

[faint anvil]

Any gatech movement

[stiff hazel]

any news from columbia for anyone?

[twilit harness]

idk

they been ghosting us

[gilded crest]

Refused Texas a&m and Purdue, hope one of you get in!

[cyan heart]

Any ideas about UPenn anyone ?

[crystal thorn]

Any more Columbia waitlist movement?

[stiff hazel]

i havent heard anything

[wide oriole]

Cornell eng wl movement?

[thorn crane]

Nothing is moving today

[bleak tendon]

Isnt it a federal holiday today

so i dont see why movement would happen

[hearty vale]

I mean I had some movement today

Moved from my bed to the fridge

[restive forge]

me rn…

[still relic]

There wont be any movement today for sure. Maybe later this week..If it does not happen by June 1, it is pretty much done, right?

[stone barn]

Cuz Duke better

[broken moss]

duke movement this friday

[flat cradle]

Diabolical take

Penn is better than Duke in every way besides sports

And proximity to a Waffle House

In every other category Penn wins

[primal frost]

guys berkeley movement this tuesday!

[stone barn]

How so

[flat cradle]

Engineering, law, healthcare, humanities, business, there isn’t a field where Penn isn’t more prominent in both rankings, curriculum breadth, and job placement

[stone barn]

looks like they’re tied in law and engineering

ofc penn better in undergrad business but also Duke doesn’t have an undergrad biz program

[stone barn]

the engineering ranking isn’t for doctorate but more so for undergrad engineering programs for schools that offer doctorates

id argue that Duke’s culture makes it a better undergraduate experience

[slim geyser]

dont trust us news for law lmfao

[stone barn]

they’re both T14 regardless

[slim geyser]

all the t-14s have a 1 next to their name cuz they literally dont send their admission stats to us news anymore

[slim geyser]

fair theyre both good

[distant lodge]

Duke and Penn both have essentially same placements for law

[barren trout]

huh how

[stone barn]

id honestly put Duke equal to Penn in every field except business (because Duke doesn’t have undergrad business so you can’t even make that comparison)

ppl choose one over the other based on fit

and it’s known penn is slightly depressing due to its pre professionalism, if ur not into that go to Duke where the culture and vibe is more conducive to a supportive learning environment

this is backed up by parchment where 54% choose penn and 46% choose Duke for crossadmits

[stone barn]

so this wouldn’t fly based on the data lol

[plush sapphire]

i want penn to come 😞

[modest hill]

Had a dream Penn accepted me from waitlist

😔 Penn and Duke were my two dream schools

[stone barn]

same at different points in my life

[modest hill]

I liked Duke more just cuz of sports culture

Seems more like a school that is less toxic and more enjoyable

[silk willow]

Bros scaring me

[clever obsidian]

how do you know?

[clever obsidian]

yeah this 😄

[buoyant chasm]

if i get into upenn yall can have my duke spot 😭

any speculation for columbia...?

[tired relic]

me after turning down upenn for duke

i think penn is only better at business obviously

everything else is equal and they have a pretty much 50 50 parchment rate

also everyone kept confusing upenn for penn state cause i live in like a small area in texas

[slim geyser]

I think it’s over

😔

Their yield probs too high

[gaunt jay]

no way that'd be so surprising lol

lol

[modest hill]

CMU better give a rejection soon

[stone barn]

REAL

[broken moss]

Makes sense

[cyan heart]

This tiny bit of hope is killing me slowly
I just want to know if it is over for intls or no

[hybrid vortex]

no lol, every school does waitlists differently and the fafsa issues/postponed commit dates really screwed up admissions timelines. unless a school tells you that they’re done taking people off of the waitlist, there’s no reason to speculate about xyz school being done with waitlist admissions

it hasn’t even been two weeks since the may 15 postponement date

some schools pushed their commit date to june 1

if you want to know about a specific school you can call or email their admissions office. you don’t have to speculate lmfao

[plush sapphire]

me and you both

are u going to usc?

[modest hill]

Yes committed

Legit 10 min ago

[fierce kettle]

same but with cal

[gaunt jay]

ME

LET ME SEND SMTH

It's a sign

[plucky ore]

Nightmare is crazy 😭

[modest hill]

withdrew from davis so good luck to anyone still on waitlist

[inland chasm]

is it recommended to send loci/email for extended waitlist?

i got deferred -> waitlist -> extended waitlist so ive already sent two updates lol (georgetown)

[plush sapphire]

oh lit me too

[modest hill]

usc as well?

also what sucks i did not get my financial package so i decommitted from davis and yoloed to usc

if i dont get aid i just dont get aid

[plush sapphire]

yeah usc

[modest hill]

See you there!

[slow dragon]

[wide oriole]

anyone know abt waitlist status for the following:
-umich

[hearty vale]

umich released a wave a week ago

ucla released a wave this weekend i dont think its over tho

[plucky ore]

Cornell coe hasn’t moved, cmu will move beginning of June allegedly but not for cs, coe, or is, Dartmouth took very few ppl off (this is alleged idk if there have actually been waves)

[hearty vale]

somepeople will proly decline

columbia has been mostly silent but some rando kid got off for cs a whjiel back

[wide oriole]

[wide oriole]

ya I’m prob cooked for ucla I applied cs

[slim geyser]

[hearty vale]

yeah no cmu is cringe af

Any UMICH waitlist movement?

[heady parcel]

there was a wave last week

[silent rune]

my friend got off last week

[silent rune]

last week instate L&S wave

[hybrid vortex]

no

there’s not much rhyme or reason for anything from cmu this cycle

[hybrid vortex]

i go to a cyber charter school lol

when i went virtual for covid i realized i could get all of my work done in like 3-4 hours max instead of having to sit through an 8 hour school day

so i just stayed cyber when my tiny public school (literally ~80 people in their graduating class this year) went hybrid in spring 2021

and then transferred to a cyber charter that had a lot more course offerings (esp. ap/dual enrollment) than my old public school

and i’ve had a full-time internship since the end freshman year (which also heavily influenced my decision to stay virtual lol) 😵‍💫

[median mason]

On CC they said admitted students with financial aid offers had until May 31 to commit. Said there might be a second wave coming as soon as Friday.

[median mason]

Yep, small number admitted off waitlist on May 17. Mostly just CS and engineering.

[broken moss]

Georgetown wave this morning?

One of my friends got off

[faint anvil]

Any gatech movement

[sonic hollow]

Another wave for UCLA in state came out

Just got off for cs!

[silent rune]

i think it was only engineering (hopefully) (i’m still cooked af)

[sonic hollow]

Yeah I’ve only seen CS and CSE get off today

So probably an engineering-only wave like last time

L&S came out like 4 days after that so maybe they’ll do the same this time

[dawn flare]

CONGRATS!!

[hearty vale]

oh yeah ut is a good school

still hard to get in

oos ut is borderline impossible asw

[hybrid vortex]

ut @ austin has to have 90% in-state students lol

i’m pretty sure the program at umich with the highest oos population is the school of music theatre and dance bc they have their own admissions process

that shit is brutal < / 3

[remote holly]

[silent rune]

i forgot to mention i got off the ucsb waitlist like 10 days ago and rejected if anybody is on the waitlist

[twilit steppe]

the only two ivies i got wl from too 😭

columbia better come in quick

im getting impatient asf

gonna reject my umich cs waitlist offer in a bit

idk if that helps anyone

[plush sapphire]

bruh i want to call penn and ask but they’re not gonna give answers

[gilded crest]

Anyone get the ucsd email?

[hearty vale]

Helps me a shit ton

I think the due date was yesterday though no?

[cyan heart]

If you're gonna call can you ask them if they're planning on accepting any intls?

They've been dead silent and not even responding to my emails

[peak granite]

Has uiuc started accepting off the waitlist yet?

[twilit steppe]

I think the last day to reject is today and I made my decision today to not go to umich lol

Oh shoot

[hearty vale]

Ah ok

[twilit steppe]

You might be right 😂

Lemme check tho

[hearty vale]

Ya I remember seeing 29th

Umich please want me 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[twilit steppe]

Lmao yeah they just cancelled my application lol

[cyan heart]

Does penn reply to any of your emails ?

I'm using the applicant email they provide in the portal and I'm getting no response

[barren trout]

do itttt

[buoyant chasm]

i called penn just now they were like we can't tell you anything but it[s gonna be rolling thru june

and same for columbia- they just said everyone will get a notification by end of june too

tbh i think the people running the phone calls prolly really don't know much either

[long fractal]

Omgg, frr thanks a bunchh for calling them, cuz them not informing has been too vague

[buoyant chasm]

idk i dont even know what to think bc its so weird that they're being so silent. like cornell+brown's been having much bigger movement. and yale+harvard informed ppl their class was full. but columbia+upenn have said NOTHING -- and it doesnt't make sense that they're alr full bc penn also historically has admitted 100+ from waitlists but I've yet to even see 50 from online

and i feel like there's no way columbia had a higher yield or maintained their average yield rate this year, i feel like the numbers def decreased but thats all my speculation

[long fractal]

Ig, they're still actually figuring out who to take off their waitlists, perhaps bcs of this year's pool's wide diversity(I reckon so). Thus we need to be patient enough until they email about our long-awaited STATUS UPDATE ON PORTAL, a lil' more to go to reach that time))) As for Columbia, no clue, cuz didn't even apply to there😭

[cyan heart]

As an intl
Do I have a shot even this late?

[long fractal]

for upenn?

[plush sapphire]

yea like it’s the same thing

they won’t tell u anything

[long fractal]

I'm also an intl, still awaiting for their response

[plush sapphire]

maybe tonight? i’ve no clue

historically it’s been the last thursday of may

[cyan heart]

Upenn yeah

I just want to get this anxiety away fr

[long fractal]

Ikrr, it's making me jaded, nevertheless there's still hope for it, since they have actually mentioned ab the rolling process in the letter of WL

[cyan heart]

They said beginning of June ig so yeah

[slim geyser]

ty

[cyan heart]

Is upenn replying to emails ?
I tried to contact them but they aren't responding

[twilit harness]

bruh

[remote holly]

i think penn waitlist will come out today cuz its always last thursday of may when they release first big wave

[upbeat juniper]

emailed my regional admissions officer 3 months ago and finally responded and she inferred that udub wl won't move till after june 1st 😭 😭

[dawn flare]

Lmao
