[chrome moat]

You dont think theyd have sent like an email or smth

[modest viper]

did anyone receive a rejection or acceptance letter off of the waitlist to northeastern

[cyan heart]

It’s less than an hour away so maybe we’ll see

They said that they don’t move the wl until June 1st so maybe that

And I don’t know if fafsa affects UPenn or not but maybe that also

[remote holly]

ig we will find out

[remote holly]

they wouldn’t sent an email cuz it’s not a large amount of people

[chrome moat]

Well we’ll see I guess

Id predict either Friday the 31st or June 1st we hear from them

[buoyant chasm]

[oak citrus]

i withdrew from purdue so gl to any wl boilmakers

[median mason]

[proven violet]

Oh fr? Then ya hopefully tmr. Wishing the best for you!

[hearty vale]

Wishing the best for you too bro

im really hoping for everything to be done in june

[hearty vale]

Rare

[timber thistle]

was there any georgia tech waitlist movement on the 30th?

[dawn flare]

No 😔

We keep waiting :(

[primal frost]

berkeley anything

?

[karmic palm]

I am one of them lol

Will keep updated

(On cc)

[formal sonnet]

open discussion is a bit more welcome there 😄

[karmic palm]

haha

[frosty field]

any news on mich today?

[modern robin]

I got an email saying CMU-Q waitlist decision will release today

6pm Doha time today

[proven violet]

?!???

Good luck if that’s true

[hearty vale]

yo wth

[celest orchid]

think they mean cmu qatar

#👻-the-medium-place message

[hearty vale]

oh that makes more sense

[proven violet]

Ohhh okay yeah that makes sense 😭😭

[modern robin]

ohh, yeah

[hearty vale]

the cmu i know waitlists everyone, doesn't tell any student anything, and then accepts 3 people off on august 1st

[modern robin]

thanks 🙂

[median mason]

Michigan likes to release acceptances on Fridays, so maybe.

[hearty vale]

there last wave was on a monday but maybe today ig

[light nebula]

any harv?

[hybrid vortex]

tbf they pushed their commit deadline back to may 15

and promised to have final decisions out by june 30

waitlist admit processes are even more tedious than regular admissions processes

[stray flume]

Did Cmu -q folks also got the
2 nd waitlist email a week ago ?

[karmic palm]

Going to sleep now, hopefully an update when I wake up

[willow crescent]

Anything on Duke waitlist?

[modern robin]

[nova remnant]

Are you still on the WL

[nocturne dawn]

Any nyu stern updates?

[plush sapphire]

i emailed penn abt the WL and they said

“Hi Haley!

We will be releasing the waitlist by the end of June most likely. For now, there's nothing more you have to do. I hope you enjoy the rest of your senior year and I'm sure you have amazing options!”

[fierce kettle]

Cal??

[chrome moat]

End of June is liquid cringe

[plush sapphire]

feels bad man

[chrome moat]

Rly cool how they tell you end of June in an email but refuse to send out an announcement to everyone thats rly cool actually

[twilit steppe]

Someone should email Columbia asking when they release 🙂

[crisp stratus]

This^^

[formal sonnet]

Yes

[crystal thorn]

has there been any columbia waitlist movement recently? aside from the people who got off around may 15

[twilit steppe]

I don’t think so

[crystal thorn]

thats insane

[oak citrus]

uMMMM

chat

omg i cant send pictures

RAJJHH

In March, we requested permission to place your name on the waitlist as an alternate for Rice University's Class of 2028. We were pleased by your positive response and are writing to provide you with an update. It is uncertain whether we will be able to admit any more students at this time, but if we do, we will choose from those who continue to be interested in Rice and maintain their place on the waitlist.

Please indicate online through your Rice Admission Student Portal by Friday, June 7, whether you wish to remain on the waitlist or prefer to withdraw from it.

If you prefer to stay on the waitlist, please keep us updated on any new information that is relevant to your application and ensure that your financial aid documents are up-to-date. Thank you again for your interest in Rice.

Sincerely,

Office of Admission
Rice University

need y’all’s expertise

[hearty vale]

Seems like it would be sent to everyone

Not sure though

[hot stone]

No email astrology

[summer stratus]

Yeah

Anyone having this issue on the rice portal

[bleak halo]

idk if there is an issue w website but it wont let me indicate

yeah

[bleak halo]

^

[summer stratus]

Yeah same

[bleak halo]

I think we should just wait a few minutes since they just sent out the email/updated the website

[oak citrus]

oopsies i sent rice admissions an email

but yea i got that

[barren trout]

what do they mean releasing the waitlist 😭 acceptances or rejections?? 😭😭😭

[plush sapphire]

releasing as in letting us go i’m pretty sure

rejecting

[plush sapphire]

anything from penn?

[broken moss]

Dude

NO

[buoyant chasm]

by releasing, i'm 99% confident that they mean sending out final decisions- so basically rejecting most people. if people get accepted, they're prolly gonna be accepted earlier than that

[bleak tendon]

HOLY FUCK MY FRIEND GOT INTO UCSD TODAY

did anyone else

[noble zealot]

got off ucsd waitlist!!! turning down for rice

[light nebula]

did anyone get harv back?

was just rejected

[crisp gull]

is waitlist movement this year slow?

[woven pier]

what major?

[noble zealot]

undeclared social science

[bleak tendon]

They are instate for Data Sci and got into Warren

[woven pier]

didn’t get anything, fingers crossed for cog sci 😭😭

lwk i’ve fallen in love w usc though so it should be fine either way, i just wanna know a final decision 💀

[hard stump]

did anyone get off ucsd for engineering

[formal sonnet]

Sorry to hear that. I saw someone post on CC 10 minutes ago that they were just rejected.

[broken moss]

I lied about duke movement

[coral tiger]

wait why did you think there would be a wave today?

[broken moss]

Friday

[coral tiger]

yeah but it's not like they've been doing waves every week

[broken moss]

Last friday of may

A bit of time adter 15tg

15th

[coral tiger]

fair enough

[still relic]

Is is possible Columbia is taking so few off WL?

Genuinely puzzled

[broken moss]

No

Most schools going into june

This year i think

[coral tiger]

the wait continues lol

[nova arrow]

had there been a wave for engineering for ucsd cuz I’ve only heard like data sci being the closest major to get off

[still relic]

Many others have at least opened up small waves. All we heard from Columbia is about a handful of mostly full-pay NYC kids.

[broken moss]

Shouldnt go to columbia anyways tbh

[karmic palm]

I just got into Harvard

Off waitlist

[hybrid vortex]

RAH🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

[still relic]

Congrats

[karmic palm]

And I can’t believe it

[hybrid vortex]

CONGRATS

[karmic palm]

I’m crying.

International

[hybrid vortex]

go to cambridge for me < / 3

[distant lodge]

🫡🫡🫡

[formal sonnet]

That’s great! Congratulations! How did you find out? Portal or email?

[karmic palm]

Portal

[formal sonnet]

Very cool. Still waitlisted here.

[stone barn]

AHHH CONGRATS

I know someone who recently uncommitted from Harvard because he got into Stanford off the waitlist

Could be what pushed you over 😭 CONGRATS

[karmic palm]

Hahaha goat

this shit was an act of god

[stone barn]

Congrats tho fr

Where were u gonna go before

[modest viper]

[karmic palm]

Northwestern

[still relic]

You Intl? which country?

[karmic palm]

Aus

[timber thistle]

i still havent seen a thing on the GT waitlist, has anyone else seen any update?

[hearty vale]

LFG CONGRATS

[proven violet]

Helll yeah congrats!

[dawn flare]

There are a disturbing lack of caps lock

CONGRATSSSS HOLYYYYY!!!!!

[karmic palm]

The caps are physical when I was jumping around the room haha

[dawn flare]

WWW

[fierce kettle]

guys...

someone on cc said that they saw a tiktok stating that berkeley has met their quota of students

[dawn flare]

Wait rly???

Oh nooo

[fierce kettle]

yeahh

[plucky ore]

I feel like cap

Cc says a lot of things

And esp bc it’s from tik tok

[dawn flare]

Yea I hope so too

[plucky ore]

OH WAIT GUYS

[dawn flare]

The TikTok dude, how did they get their info

[plucky ore]

I KNOW THE GUY WHO POSTED THE COMMENT

stop he might be trolling

he’s like a notorious troll

[dawn flare]

I’m still waiting 😔

[dawn flare]

Phew 😅

[plucky ore]

He told everyone he was going to mogwarts for a whole month lol

He’s prob trying to make ppl panic ngl

[fierce kettle]

guys...

[dawn flare]

I mean that’s just a joke tbh

[plucky ore]

Yea but he’s also just like. Lowk a troll in gen 😭

[fierce kettle]

go to admissionsmaven on tiktok

it might actually be true..

[dawn flare]

I don’t have TikTok what they saying and are they legit

[fierce kettle]

i think so ngl...

[bleak tendon]

NO FUCKIN WAY

HOW IS IT REAL

LINK THAT SHIT

[plucky ore]

Like that’s his personality

Whattt

Wait someone send link

Too lazy

[bleak tendon]

tiktok is usually not real right?

also how would they know

[fierce kettle]

yeah give me a sec

[bleak tendon]

THANK YOU KING

[fierce kettle]

im trying to save the vid

https://www.tiktok.com/@admissionsmaven/video/7375324533924007211?lang=en

[dawn flare]

How did they get this info

[plucky ore]

Wtf

[dawn flare]

If this is real…

😔

[bleak tendon]

hold on let me download this vid cuz i dont have tiktok

and watch

[dawn flare]

Has this account been associated or generally right abt berkeley stuff or they’re just a troll

[fierce kettle]

damn my heart just sank

[bleak tendon]

my question fr

BUT WTF

FUCKIN L

[fierce kettle]

ig it makes sense giving berkeley is the only one not moving the wl

but that sucks ngl

[bleak tendon]

no way we are going to the 2022 WL numbers for berk

💀

[dawn flare]

UCSC and uiuc aint for now tho :D

Still gotta hope

🙏

[bleak tendon]

YOU GOT THIS

[bleak tendon]

is this person credible tho

does someone here wanna try emailing Berk to ask about the WL to see if we get a similar answer

[fierce kettle]

idk but the letter seemed legit

[regal bison]

:/

[dawn flare]

I cant find an email address and when I called them was a clueless student intern

[bleak tendon]

theres no berk admission email?

[regal bison]

another person on CC claims that they (or their counselor) was told that the WL would probably be open until end of July, though

[dawn flare]

I literally can’t find one

[regal bison]

(though tbh I think they overadmitted this year...)

[dawn flare]

Nooooooooo

Why do u think that

[sonic hollow]

thats actually tough

if true

[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

pleaaaaaase

[regal bison]

a lot more people than usual from my school got in and committed (something like ~30 out of a class of 550, when last year it was at best 2/3 of that)

[bleak tendon]

. 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️
🕯️ 🕯️
UC Berkeley
🕯️ In-State WL 🕯️
PLEASE 🙏
🕯️ 🕯️
🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️

[bleak tendon]

oh a lot of ppl got in from my school too but thats cuz we are a feeder kinda to berk

[bleak tendon]

?

[dawn flare]

Nah ion wanna use the form

And I’ve never seen that email lol

I’ll use it tho

[regal bison]

there's no way they share this type of information with anyone, though

right?

right?

[bleak tendon]

TRUE

has this person been right in the past

that would give them credibility

[dawn flare]

Looking at the past videos

It seems like she just uses cds data for content

[dawn flare]

I mean they do share some stuff like decision dates and stuff with counselors before public release so idk

[fierce kettle]

idk it seems pretty legit cause if berkeley had space then they would have started to give offers 2 weeks ago

[bleak tendon]

hmm

[regal bison]

maybe there'll be a lot of melt this year

[fierce kettle]

ik its not what all of us wanted but this actually might be whats actually going on

[bleak tendon]

melt?

[dawn flare]

Wait what’s melt

[regal bison]

people decommitting

[dawn flare]

Ohh

[bleak tendon]

but also i just need one W this season from the UCS

[stone barn]

why would ppl decommit

[dawn flare]

Ikrrrrrr

[regal bison]

getting off WL elsewhere

[fierce kettle]

ppl who get off the wl for other schools

[plucky ore]

let’s just manifest for melt atp

[fierce kettle]

yeahh thats the best we can do yk

[formal sonnet]

I thought you just said someone you know decommitted Harvard for Stanford?

[stone barn]

one off instance

[plucky ore]

I’m surprised Berkeley’s yield is this high this year tho cuz all the other UCs seem to be having around same amount of waitlist movement as last year

[stone barn]

melt insinuates a larger group

[fierce kettle]

yeah me too

i was not expecting that esp looking at last years numbers

[regal bison]

really wouldn't be surprised, again, if they just overadmitted because of poor yield last year

[fierce kettle]

yeahh thats prolly what they did

[plucky ore]

Womp womp

[fierce kettle]

also it makes sense now cause berkeley started giving out housing offers

[plucky ore]

Wait I’m dumb what do housing offers have to do with it

[sudden sequoia]

do we know when cmu, neu, or umich waitlist is coming out

esp for engineering

[modest viper]

someone said they got rejected from the neu waitlist

[fierce kettle]

prolly like ohh since we arent taking ppl off the wl lets just start giving out offers

cause if ppl would have gotten off they would fill out their housing application which means like housing offers would be delayed yk if im trying to make any sense lol

[bleak halo]

yea i got my housing offer surprisingly early

[gaunt jay]

my heartwhen i saw that dartmouth took someone off the waitlist

[plucky ore]

don’t they usually do housing before doing waitlist offers idk I just remember hearing ppl who got waitlisted complaining they got no housing

[gaunt jay]

it wasn't me 💔

[plucky ore]

I’ve given up thank god

Dartmouth hates me

[gaunt jay]

fiona what are you waiting on

georgia tech is insane

[bleak halo]

how do i get prefrosh role

[gaunt jay]

id:customize

[bleak halo]

thanks

[gaunt jay]

oops

no

i'm wrong

jk im right

yeah it's there and u click on roles

[bleak halo]

nah u right thanks

[plucky ore]

Penn Dartmouth Cornell Berkeley ucla cmu jhu I turned down some other ones 😭

[still relic]

You heading to GA Tech?

[bleak tendon]

is it usually like that with berk

[bleak halo]

anyone hear antyhing about brown

[gaunt jay]

giona is

[still relic]

Sorry, I meant Penn/Wharton..

[gaunt jay]

fiona

[gaunt jay]

holy waitlist

yeah you win

[plucky ore]

Yea fr ineedacoffee slaying

[gaunt jay]

yes most likely

i just rlly dont want to do investment banking

[still relic]

Nice

[gaunt jay]

you are slaying

[plucky ore]

THAT’S SO REAL

[fierce kettle]

I’m just like speculating like this is just a guess as to what could have happened obv I’m not cal admissions

[plucky ore]

Why would u have to do IB at penn tho

[still relic]

Nope. I called them though and they said they were doing WL offers in "small waves" and would continue until probably end June.

[gaunt jay]

arent u also penn

[still relic]

Yes

[gaunt jay]

peer pressure

80% go into consulting/finance

[plucky ore]

help 😭

that’s actually crazy what

[gaunt jay]

u feel like you're behind if you're not doing the same

[gaunt jay]

yipeee

what are u waiting on

[still relic]

Harvard/Columbia/Brown. Will not take Columbia, will very likely not get off Harvard. Thinking about Brown

[gaunt jay]

okay very nice

same thing here with columbia but it would be nice to compare aid packages

[still relic]

But, I am almost completely set w Penn. Will prolly not change my mind even if Columbia/Brown came through..

Just spent HS thinking baout Brown as my dream school..but am not so sure now..

[bleak halo]

i see. i think someone said they release some offers in small waves like you said every friday, i may be wrong tho

[still relic]

Not sure about Friday. The lady did emphasize "small" waves..which prolly means 3/4 names at at time I am guessing

[gaunt jay]

hopefully they take u off tho to satisfy your early HS dreams

[stone barn]

love brown

[gaunt jay]

hi kirk

[stone barn]

hi

why am i in this thread

[gaunt jay]

i like your name

[still relic]

i now think Penn may be a better platform for my econ/finance plans anyway..

[stone barn]

ty i like urs too

[stone barn]

wharton?

[still relic]

Yeah

[stone barn]

ur fine

[still relic]

Thanks

[gaunt jay]

if you get off brown waitlist, what would be the main determinator between penn vs. brown

[modest hill]

Yes if u consider cs part of it

[gaunt jay]

the community?

[modest hill]

And a lot people got off for structural engineering

[gaunt jay]

brown was also my dream school kinda basically

but ten they rejected me

[still relic]

No, open curriculum and teh very liberal pass/fail options would make for a very stress free environment

[gaunt jay]

so basically community that comes with it too

the low stress

penn is high stress apparently

[stone barn]

i heard that

[still relic]

and allow freer exploration of random stuff

[stone barn]

i think stanford is just mid

stress

[still relic]

Stanford is mid for econ folks

[gaunt jay]

no way you said that

[hearty vale]

cornell is most stress

[still relic]

Penn is high stress for those shooting for top branding (GS/McKinsey etc)

[gaunt jay]

bro pulled out reciepts

[hearty vale]

out of all ivies cornell ive heard is like fr the hardest curric but still hated on as a uni

like they got nets for a reason

[gaunt jay]

this is so fake lol but it made me sad

[regal bison]

ucla???

[gaunt jay]

the comments were disagreeing

[stone barn]

they have a lot of fun at penn

[gaunt jay]

the list is BS

[still relic]

I meant mid stress not mid rank!

[stone barn]

OH

LOL

[still relic]

for Stanford..

[hearty vale]

jhu makes sense

uva hell no

[stone barn]

honestly even us cs kids r pretty chill

[gaunt jay]

cant tell if this is sarcastic

[hearty vale]

lmfao i think i saw that and asu was on that list

like bruh

[stone barn]

the clubs aren't competitive at stanford

[gaunt jay]

luke is rus russian

[stone barn]

not like harv or penn

[stone barn]

not

[regal bison]

yes

[stone barn]

but also if yall lock in

[gaunt jay]

you're just like me

[stone barn]

you'll be fine

it becomes stressful when ur trynna balance high aspirations with constant partying

[still relic]

LOL

[stone barn]

and ur stressed out abt how to manage it all

[gaunt jay]

how do frat parties work

ive been a singular house party

[still relic]

and frankly, big name firms that everyone is competing for have lost their lustre to some extent

[gaunt jay]

and fell asleep

[gaunt jay]

people are still going to go for the big names

[stone barn]

similar to house parties

[gaunt jay]

talk drink more drink barf

[stone barn]

ppl r def gonna go for big names

[gaunt jay]

sounds like fun

[stone barn]

exactly

[still relic]

Yes, for sure..

[stone barn]

wdym lustre though

[still relic]

Are you on the East coast, Kirk?

[stone barn]

no im from TX

[gaunt jay]

it all worked out

you get to have good weather

[still relic]

For example: working at Goldman isnt quite what it used to be. Goldman's rep has taken a hit. Lots of other great places to work for..even smaller shops

[stone barn]

oh for sure

[stone barn]

thankfully

TX weather has been killing me

[stone barn]

smaller shops honestly pay the same or even more at some places

[still relic]

yes. Plus a better life. Less general nonsense

[nova arrow]

but like data + stats I haven’t seen a single bioengineering cs ee major get off

I’ve seen a couple of structural get off too idk if I’m supposed to give up or not cuz today was the 3rd wave

[still relic]

Off to a party myself..

See yall later

[gaunt jay]

in the girls washroom in the wharton building, there's a note that says "dont let goldman sachs see you cry" or smth like that AHHH i wish i took a photo

the point is

we all end up in the same place

[still relic]

I have an older sib who went through the NY City grind at a couple of top firms. Did not like it at all.

[plucky ore]

I’m sorry this is crazyyy wtf 😭

[modest hill]

Someone from my school got off for cs

Also data science a lot are out

[nova arrow]

Nvm I’m fucked

I didn’t want socially dead anyways

[modest hill]

Ya I’ve given up

Also

[primal frost]

What the freak

Did they over admit

There’s no way they had good enough yield this year

[modest hill]

I don’t believe this tbh. Possibly for some majors but I can’t believe this to be true for all majors

[modest hill]

If they pulled a CMU back abt 5 years ago this is crazy

[primal frost]

It makes sense though

[modest hill]

CMU overadmitted abt 5 yrs ago so no one got off waitlist it was 0

[primal frost]

Otherwise they would move already

[modest hill]

I heard someone did get off Berkeley appeal already tho they got a phone call

[primal frost]

It’s fine I’m locked into uiuc tho

What if I call Monday

[modest hill]

They also got off ucla so no surprise

[modest hill]

U could try but nothing would change

[regal bison]

the evidence is a little too convincing for me

https://www.tiktok.com/@admissionsmaven/video/7375324533924007211?lang=en

[hearty vale]

I know it’s TikTok but why this lowk convincing

If it’s fr that’s sad

[modest hill]

This feels real to me ya I’ve seen this tiktok before but at the same time I feel like it isn’t real

[gaunt jay]

ouch

[modest hill]

Oh well RIP

I didn’t like u Berkeley anyways

😭

[gaunt jay]

did u see that video of people trying to get to class at berk

[narrow stag]

did anyone get off for bio

[gaunt jay]

it's so crowded

[fierce kettle]

idk seems legit

[modest hill]

Oh well….i like usc more anyways

[fierce kettle]

damn I’m not happy but whatever everything happens for a reason

[hearty vale]

Where you goin?

[fierce kettle]

UC Riverside

[modest hill]

Hopefully usc becomes better than berk in football soon

[hearty vale]

Are you in state?

[fierce kettle]

yeah

[hearty vale]

I think transferring is always an option

You can also like transfer to a cc and have higher change of getting into la or berk

I think

[modest hill]

Yes I prob or might do this

[fierce kettle]

Yeah I might do a UC to a UC

[hearty vale]

I mean usc is alr a great school and student life there is great

[modest hill]

Same idk if they allow USC to UC

[fierce kettle]

But my thing is just get a masters

[hearty vale]

So don’t go in with a mindset of wanting to transfer

I’m sure it’ll be great

[modest hill]

Def, but it’s the cost

[fierce kettle]

yeahh

[modest hill]

I still haven’t gotten the financial aid

[hearty vale]

Oh yeah I forgot about that

Expensive ass school

[bleak tendon]

link

for me i just want an acceptance for the ego at this point, or they could reject me so they can stop leaving me on read

[modest hill]

Well UCs in general has a problem in general for class registration

[bleak tendon]

real

[hybrid vortex]

guys even if it is real it says “it is unlikely we will make many waitlist offers”

MANY, not any

meaning that they will still take people off the waitlist, just not as many people as normal

if they weren’t taking anyone off the waitlist they would’ve notified you

[regal bison]

still less of a chance (and if a repeat of 2022, almost none at all)

[bleak tendon]

when do CDS for this addmision cycle come out

just curious

[hybrid vortex]

usually around october

[hybrid vortex]

but the way people were responding to it makes it seem as if berkeley outright said that they aren’t taking anyone lol

[hybrid vortex]

the waitlist review process is a lot more tedious than regular review. schools have very specific slots they need to fill in their entering class and they go through each of their waitlist candidates to see who best fits within said slots. people have also been getting commit extensions bc of financial aid. there’s literally no way to know if there’s space/if they aren’t taking anyone until the school officially contacts you

[regal bison]

they really do seem to have taken fewer people in the first wave than last year, though

[modest hill]

Guys in simple terms berk is cooked. Also I think people who did get off waitlist for berk if there are prob got phone calls

[fierce kettle]

that’s so real but I wish we had an official answer yk

[modest hill]

Honestly u could call them

[fierce kettle]

True

[fierce kettle]

yesss cause they released the data right sooo 420 ppl this year were admitted for eecs without wl movement and last year 470 ppl were total admitted for eecs

so i though ohh there must be atleast some wl movement

but idk

[modest hill]

Have a feeling it’s also cuz of fafsa

This year

[fierce kettle]

yeahh fasfa could have impacted this

[sonic hollow]

Watch Berkeley just release a huge wave tmrw after all of this

[fierce kettle]

april fools in june

[modest hill]

Oh shit u got into ucla for cs I remember u were uci

[sonic hollow]

Yeah

Still don’t know how I got off

I feel like I’m more of a berk/irvine person than la but I guess they didn’t think so

[dawn flare]

nah monday
idt they release on weekends do they

[sonic hollow]

I know LA released for internationals/oos last Saturday

Not sure how berk does it

[dawn flare]

ooh

some hope (none at all)

[barren trout]

HOLY SHIT

where were you committed before this???

CONGRATS!!! :D

[modest hill]

Wow congrats

[sonic hollow]

Thanks!

[hot stone]

Thank you!

[broken moss]

i think duke is closed tbh

[willow crescent]

what why

nothing on duke today 😔 😔 😔

[broken moss]

ye

its probably done now

[willow crescent]

i think yeah

[broken moss]

they usually only hv 2 waves

[willow crescent]

[willow crescent]

sfsfssss

[broken moss]

no one got off after like first week of may

that second wave

in early may

[willow crescent]

rip

[hot stone]

No one got off after the tenth/eleventh

But then again

Duke gave a ton of extensions to the fifteenth

[willow crescent]

yeahhh

[hot stone]

So like it’s not really over

[coral tiger]

idk they should have more acceptances after May 15 deadline

[willow crescent]

i called in and they said like one more week

[broken moss]

one more week as in

one more week until they close

?

[willow crescent]

like finalize

[hot stone]

One more week for what

[hearty vale]

[hot stone]

Ohh

[willow crescent]

[broken moss]

ig yesterday now

[willow crescent]

[broken moss]

[willow crescent]

yeah

[hot stone]

Just an approximate

[broken moss]

probably closed then

if theres no word abt anything

[willow crescent]

yeah maybe

[coral tiger]

idek

it doesn't even feel like they admitted many students in the first two waves

[hot stone]

It’s not closed till it’s closed

[hot stone]

Yeah

[broken moss]

duke giving extensions i thought wud mean there shud be another wave but if there hasnt been one

[hot stone]

They prob had a lot in extensions

[broken moss]

and its basically closed in one week

idk

[willow crescent]

[hot stone]

Don’t doom guys

[broken moss]

its j weird

[hot stone]

This year is weird

[willow crescent]

fr

[hot stone]

Nothing is usual

[broken moss]

ig

[earnest hinge]

U guys are saying that UMICH and cmu both mailed abt waitlist today?
But I didn’t received any update yet

[broken moss]

but radio silence is insane

[coral tiger]

ikr

[hearty vale]

they did???

wtf???

where did u hear that

[coral tiger]

not to be a debbie downer

but don't give too much hope on umich

their admission trend feels toxic

[hearty vale]

wdym

[coral tiger]

the percentage of students they defer and waitlist

is actually insane

[hearty vale]

oh yeah for sure

[coral tiger]

just to keep students waiting and hopeful

[hearty vale]

its so stupid

its my last arrow so im just coping atp

[broken moss]

chances of umich are prob better than duke atp

[hearty vale]

but kids have been getting off

[coral tiger]

very valid

[hearty vale]

2 kids from my school got off in the first wave

i did research at umich with a professor there so that kind of gives me hope

and ive told them its my dream school 128429142948 times

so idk

its cope tho

[earnest hinge]

Someone on discord told that he got an update 6pm Doha time from cmu

[broken moss]

idt it rlly matters

its j institutional needs

[hearty vale]

what about umich

also that was for cmu qatar not cmu in the US

[earnest hinge]

Shessh, my bad

[karmic palm]

Northwestern

Feels kinda bad to leave them

They were first school to show me love

And met some really cool people

[earnest hinge]

There’s always an opportunity cost

[hearty vale]

its harvard tho yk

thats tuff

but yeah i feel that

[coral tiger]

i hate northwestern

[hearty vale]

boy what the hell

i wish 1 top school would accept my sorry ass i feel like my shit gpa in freshman year fucjed me over

[karmic palm]

Been shaking for the past 5 hours

[hearty vale]

lmfao understandable

congrats tho fr thats insane

[coral tiger]

did u apply to UC's?

[hearty vale]

yeah im oos tho and got rejected by basically all but irivne

got waitlisted irvine

idk what the hell happened with UC;s

tbh

[coral tiger]

OOS is tough

[hearty vale]

oos for cs

thats probably a bit wors

but

yea

[coral tiger]

tougher...

lol

[hearty vale]

do uc's yield?

i did not expect a rejection from davis

i might just be coping

[coral tiger]

not sure if they yield

but they are very unpredictable

[hearty vale]

yeah makes sense

[coral tiger]

as in you could get in a UC that is "considerably better" than UC that you were rejected from

[hearty vale]

i know a kid who got into la and berk and rejected from sb and davis

[coral tiger]

yeah lol

[hearty vale]

stupid af

my biggest regret

is applying to uc's

and too many random safeties

[coral tiger]

really?

[hearty vale]

yea

[coral tiger]

reason why i asked if u did

[hearty vale]

they dont look at freshman

[coral tiger]

was cause they don't look at fresh year

yeah

[hearty vale]

thats why i applied

[coral tiger]

ah

[hearty vale]

but clearly its just too hard for oos cs

i should have done more research on that

[modest hill]

Bruh same I only got into uc Davis

[hearty vale]

i should have shotgunned random reaches

[modest hill]

But uc Davis is a great school and prob by far the best campus

[hearty vale]

i like sd lowk

[karmic palm]

I applied to 17 schools

Only got Harvard and northwestern lol

Clutch

[coral tiger]

i applied to 26 lol

ivy day did not go well

[hearty vale]

yo what the fuck lmfao

i think i applied 20ish as well

[misty summit]

Im wl to northwestern..

[hearty vale]

i had the dumbest freaking list

[misty summit]

[hearty vale]

hope u get off so i can go umich cs 😄

[misty summit]

I didn't apply to any UCs

[hearty vale]

fuck the uc's

[slender cedar]

yall im actually so scared about the berkely tiktok

[fierce kettle]

i am in state applied to all the ucs except merced for cs, got into riv, santa cruz, santa barbara (but undeclared l&s idk how), waitlisted davis, berkeley, rejected sd, la, irvine

[hearty vale]

way too many safeties

case i withdrew they deferred my ass

[celest orchid]

what berkeley tiktok

[fierce kettle]

this

[slender cedar]

there was a tiktok saying that uc berkeley will barely be accepting anyone off their waitlist

[celest orchid]

oh

[karmic palm]

Already asked them to withdraw, gl

Pulled off Columbia Dartmouth ucla and Amherst wl’s as well

[hearty vale]

damn u farmed wl's

i just had umich uci and uva but withdrew all but umich

[coral tiger]

u withdrew uva?

[hearty vale]

yea

i applied cs

purdue cs and umd cs have more of a name in that area

they both t20's

[karmic palm]

lol

Done dirty

International Asian dude lol

But clutched up at the end

[hearty vale]

harvard as an international asian is nasty work

[misty summit]

Better than my results

[dawn flare]

PURDUEEEE

W

[hearty vale]

i mean umich cs is fire

[misty summit]

i got rejected from northeastern even tho my brother was active alumni

And i did EA

[hearty vale]

yeah thats yield protection

[misty summit]

so fuck them fr🔥

[hearty vale]

i did ea asw

i got 20k scholly too and boston campus

[modest hill]

Where u going for now

[misty summit]

vT and purfue are great

[hearty vale]

dude idk i feel like i shouldnhave considdered vt

i got honors college and some scholly too

[modest hill]

Holy u got into umass?!

[hearty vale]

i got CE 💀

and im in srtate

crazy to me

got purdue cs and umd cs tho

and those oos are <10% ar? for cs

which is so confusing

decisions make no sense

[modest hill]

Wait ce is better than cs tho

[misty summit]

Where r u committed to rn

[hearty vale]

purdue cs

[hearty vale]

cs def more comp no?

i put ce as my second choice

[misty summit]

it is

[karmic palm]

It’s fucked up bro

So many of my friends got snubbed

[misty summit]

I got wl from umass mainly cuz i forgot to send my act

[hearty vale]

they wl and then accept a shit ton of people

atleast that happened last year

[karmic palm]

Harvard was 84% yield this year as well

Fuck me

[hearty vale]

u cooked up fr

[misty summit]

84 is insane

[hearty vale]

wai

then you were probs like one of <100 students

accepted off wl

[misty summit]

uofm be like 50%

[hearty vale]

umicjh gotta let my ass in

lowk

[karmic palm]

Yep

And international

Just super lucky

[hearty vale]

and super deserved

[misty summit]

dont downplay ur achievements

harvard saw u out of thousands and said this is our guy

[karmic palm]

Very grateful

[hearty vale]

fr

[karmic palm]

Thanks sm

[misty summit]

the college admissions process just feels so random but also very systematic

I got rejected to places i thought I'd get into and accepted to places that were reaches

[karmic palm]

Can’t agree more

I got rejected from much lower ranked schools

end of the day it’s mostly luck after some point

[misty summit]

well shoot enough arrows and one of em is bound to hit

i shot 14 arrows which is kind of small compared to the ppl in this server ..

[karmic palm]

Michigan cs is great

Straight to bigtech

[misty summit]

yea but honestly it took so much thinking to commit

because I'm paying near full price

i had to think hard about roi

[broken moss]

praying to duke gods that we have one more wave before wednesday

[coral tiger]

i really do hope so

duke yield isn't the highest

[broken moss]

it should be mathematically impossible that they hv their class done bc they havent taken anyone after the 10th

and their extension was the 15th

[coral tiger]

plus i feel like ppl that get off ivy WL's tend to withdraw duke

[coral tiger]

yeah exactly

[modest hill]

Where u going if not Duke

[broken moss]

emory

or gtown

[coral tiger]

u doing poli sci related?

[broken moss]

premed

[coral tiger]

oh i see

[hot stone]

You got off Dartmouth’s wl?

Or you just withdrew

[karmic palm]

Withdrew

Should’ve been more coear

[hot stone]

Ohh

[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

[summer stratus]

Did anyone get their Rice Portal issue fixed ?

For waitlist 2 form

[wet fox]

Not yet

[jagged geyser]

any madison movement?

[stiff hazel]

yes pleaseeeee

[stiff hazel]

hii, if youre really not into columbia at all, would u please consider maybe withdrawing from the waitlist haha, like pen is an amazing and if youre considering it over columbia obviously

[still relic]

yup will send in today

[sonic hollow]

Another UCLA wave today

In state, L&S from the posts on cc so far

[hearty vale]

Bro how many freaking waves does ucla do

One thing I like about ucla though is that they don’t waitlistnlike a shit ton of people

Like they ethical about it

[sturdy cave]

babson when ik im getting rejected cus i accepted waitlist 3 days late but i still wanna know

(and if i get in id visit campus to decide but rn id prob stick w my school lool)

[stiff hazel]

thank youu

[sonic hollow]

It’s because they separate their waves by college/residency so probably takes more waves to get through their waitlist

So far it’s been 2 International/OOS, 2 IS Engineering, and 2 IS L&S now

There may have been smaller waves for other colleges

But those were the major ones

[hearty vale]

Ah okay

[hybrid vortex]

they do lol

[hearty vale]

Ya but people were speculating about duke closing

[hybrid vortex]

theres no reason to tho

waitlist decisions take a while every year

[hearty vale]

Ig some people could back out like mad late

[hybrid vortex]

this year it’s exacerbated bc of the fafsa

people will also back out if they get off the waitlist for another school

that’s why notification timelines for a lot of schools go to late june

[hearty vale]

So then there is always hope

[hybrid vortex]

but schools aren’t out to get anyone lol

there’s no reason for them to antagonize their applicants

if they’re done with the waitlist, they’ll tell you

[hearty vale]

Bro Umich is

They waitlist and defer way too many people

I’ve had enough of them

[hybrid vortex]

it’s because they’re a state school

they need a specific percentage of in-state students to maintain public funding

so they waitlist different numbers of in-state and out-of-state students

anyways carnegie mellon allegedly this week

(allegedly because i called them last week and asked/bc the temperature survey had a deadline of june 1)

[still relic]

Yup. June 1 was my personal deadline! The whole application process is a mess. Happy w outcome. Tired of waiting..

[nocturne dawn]

Any nyu movement?

[coral tiger]

even then

umich's waitlist and defer rate are borderline toxic

[twilit steppe]

COLUMBIA WHEN

I check this portal at least twice a day even though I’m on vacation

Has anyone emailed them 😭

[hybrid vortex]

i mean it’s similar to cmu’s waitlist rate

about 25-30% of waitlisted ppl don’t accept their spot

everything’s more complicated when you’re a state school lol

but the number of admitted waitlist students at umich is insane

last year 955 people got off the waitlist

so it’s really a bigger picture thing lol

[hot stone]

Duke sends an email

[broken moss]

DUKE SEND AN EMAIL ABOUT RECONFIRMING INTEREST PLS

[hardy gate]

Like why end of june....my imagination makes me wonder if they have more space this year and thus need to consider the pool in depth again

[bleak tendon]

[warm dew]

are they not already?

[gusty hornet]

Did anyone get off davis wl for cs in the past few weeks?

[inland stag]

I got off ucla, l&s

[plush sapphire]

CONGRATS

[faint anvil]

Any cmu or gatech?

[silent rune]

i’m still on ucla waitlist :/

damn bruh CC makes u feel like shit

everybody celebrating that they got off and u didn’t get off

[slow gust]

Yep

[fierce kettle]

atleast they are taking ppl off the waitlist apparently cal isn’t taking anyone off 😔

[hot stone]

We don’t know fs

[earnest hinge]

But last to last year was just 100

[modest viper]

what happens if i boost the server

[earnest hinge]

Go on

Boost

[hybrid vortex]

no two admissions processes are alike

the number of people who get off the waitlist isn’t something that the school decides itself

it’s directly correlated with the number of people who accept their spot in the entering class

[hybrid vortex]

because they need to give people time to respond to their waitlist offers lol

ik it’s different for every school but it tends to be within the realm of a few days - a week

if that person declines, they offer the spot to another person

and on and on until the entering class is full

it’s not like normal admissions

[silent rune]

i'm offering discord nitro to anyone who declines a waitlist acceptance to ucla for IS L&S (admitted today)

[hearty vale]

LMFAO

[modest viper]

offering to boost the server if someone can tell northeastern I saved 3 babies in a fire

[silent rune]

please ping/dm if interested w/ evidence that u declined and that ur not just gonna re-accept the offer after i send u discord nitro

[hearty vale]

bro no one is gonna decline for discord nitro

people will only declinme if they actually dont wanna go

you get nothing out of it

[lament path]

someone got off for tandon

any movement on pitzer waitlist?

[wide oriole]

did Cornell coe ever have movement,

[silent rune]

two months nitro final offer

[distant lodge]

Bro is trying to bribe people with fucking $12 discord gift 😭

We get why you're waitlisted now lol

[silent rune]

how tf does that make sense

it's a joke gang ik nobody gonna decline for nitro that would be stupid

[distant lodge]

I'm dead serious
just a joke guys

[hearty vale]

bro this aint looking like a joke stop tryna play it off 💀

[modest hill]

No

[modest viper]

[warm dew]

did they not beat berk this year?

[misty summit]

Oh my gawd

Nobody is going to decline an offer that may drastically change the next 4 years of their life for 12 dollars

[silent rune]

they should

$12 is $12 that’s pretty life changing money

[modest hill]

Didn’t they lose or am I tripping

[warm dew]

…we lost to ucla not berk

[modest hill]

Oh my bad and did usc switch coaches

[warm dew]

i don’t think so p sure we still have riley

you may be thinking of the defense coach who we got from ucla

they may have took the game but we took their coach 💀

[late stump]

💀

[modest hill]

lol

[cyan heart]

Anything about penn today ?

[modest hill]

Ana usc did treat me right with the financial aid

I can afford to go

[warm dew]

wait rly? how did it end up?

[modest hill]

I can send through dms

[clever obsidian]

still nothing on duke?

did anything move on fri

[timber thistle]

fuckk i see on reddit that someone from virginia got off of tech's waitlist around may 25th for aero, has anyone else seen anything?

[hybrid vortex]

CONGRATS

one of the lucky few

they may not have met any of my need but i’m still going🤥

guys i declined northeastern compsci someone should give me discord nitro so i can change my display name in here without having to admit to anyone in the other servers im in that im in a discord for people applying to college

[timber thistle]

u should be able to change without nitro

[dawn flare]

U can change ur server name

[timber thistle]

just find ur name on the list to the side and edit ur server profile

[hybrid vortex]

omfg i thought you needed nitro for that lol

that’s embarrassing😵‍💫

[bleak tendon]

💀

[barren trout]

girl 😭

[barren trout]

YAY!! :D

[modest viper]

its so homophobic that northeastern still has me on the wl

[broken moss]

Ye

I think someone called in

And they said they were finalizing yhis week

So potential one more wave or j closing this week

[clever obsidian]

F

[sand cosmos]

is columbia out

[clever obsidian]

where are you going?

[broken moss]

emory

[buoyant chasm]

have heard nothing so far

do yall think columbia yield is similar to usual or lower this year?

theyre acting like they have a super high yield this year like theyre so silent

[clever obsidian]

W

[modest hill]

this is a question i feel like that cant be answered cuz yield rates always have insane flunctations

example: berkeley

berkeley had a 25 percent acceptance rate last year from waitlist according what u guys say

but seems like this year barely anyone is going to get out based on the info provided by the tiktok

[stone barn]

they probably accepted more people

they knew abt their yield problem during regular decision

[late stump]

oh bruh I js saw this

omgg yayy congratss

[modest hill]

ty ty locked for usc

[late stump]

can’t wait for ur party era

[modest hill]

maybe im not into drinking or smoking or any sort of activities like that so i kinda sway away

[late stump]

ohh ok PG-13 parties!!

gl on basketball tryouts lol

[modest hill]

boughta be drafted

[late stump]

besties w bronny james fr

[hearty vale]

I would guess this asw

They are accepting like very few people like it’s not even waves

[primal frost]

UCB is homophobic

[cerulean spruce]

Bc earlier they said after transfer sir deadline

Which is today lol

[regal bison]
