[dusty silo]

It feels too demotivating to even go to IV anymore

[glossy current]

overall id say IV has better food
but sometimes steast is better

[glossy current]

oh yeah felt

esp if ur in steast

i would literally just go down and eat

or get one of those red boxes and eat in my room

[dusty silo]

[glossy current]

W

[dusty silo]

[glossy current]

oh yeah i steal tea from the dining halls all the time

[dusty silo]

LOL

[glossy current]

oh yeah some of my friends fully had dining hall utensils in their room

[dusty silo]

Thats real

My roommate got some too lmao

[glossy current]

W nice

i just ended up bringing my parents old utensils

[dusty silo]

mm smart

[glossy current]

theyre prob from the 90s if i had to guess

[dusty silo]

DAMN

being passed down frfr

[glossy current]

all i know is theyre from before my parents came to the us

so a while

[dusty silo]

At first I was kinda scard to taking stuff from dining hall so I had to use the builtin forks in the instant noodle cups LOL

[glossy current]

😭

[dusty silo]

thats some amazing lore

[fading socket]

tbf tho between paper plates or reusable plates we gotta stay green

reduce reuse recycle

[glossy current]

so real

[dusty silo]

tru tru

[fading socket]

that motherfucking popeyes at curry is a scam

and i stand by that

[glossy current]

in this day and age, i agree

last year, i wouldve disagreed with you

[fading socket]

you shouldve seen the literal DIME sized nuggets i got once

in roxbury? they practically give you tender sized nuggets

[glossy current]

bc they still had meal exchanges

[fading socket]

NO THIS TOMFOOLERY HAPPENED 2 SUMMERS AGO

[glossy current]

where

[dusty silo]

oh I only get the tender box at popeyes so I dont know about the nuggets

[fading socket]

another location

[glossy current]

which part of roxbury i must know this information

bc i shall go there

[fading socket]

washington park mall 😭

[glossy current]

ok bet

[fading socket]

those people are tired of me

but good luck trying to get there

[dusty silo]

LOL

Bru that reminds me

[fading socket]

it is the most ghetto popeyes in the city

but so worth

[dusty silo]

I have this sip club at panera, before I even pull out my phone they hand me a cup without asking

[glossy current]

ok wait this aint far

[fading socket]

well yeah

its just how many crackheads do u wanna encounter otw there

[glossy current]

😭

[fading socket]

luckily for u the 23/28 is free

[glossy current]

hell yeah

i love free shit

[fading socket]

idk how long tho

[glossy current]

was free last year too right

[fading socket]

yes

[glossy current]

never been on it but i always saw it at ruggles

[fading socket]

turns out its free till march 2026

[glossy current]

oh sick

[stark quail]

Roxbury 💀

one time I went there for a track meet

me and the boys went to get food

[fading socket]

no because one time i was walking to that popeyes and got catcalled by TWO SEPARATE PEOPLE BACK TO BACK

[stark quail]

and one of my friends got harrassed by a drunk dude to give him money

[glossy current]

oh hell nah

[fading socket]

this one ancient old guy and this one younger looking guy

and i was in like 8th grade at the time

[stark quail]

the people in roxbury are cooked half the time 💀

[fading socket]

actually one of my friends got mollywhopped by a crackhead yesterday lmfao

[glossy current]

is this a banned word what

[dusty silo]

oh yea it is

LOl

[glossy current]

😭

[stark quail]

but the food goes hard ash

[fading socket]

😭

[stark quail]

that you cant deny

[dusty silo]

cause theres some immature users in this server that abuse it

[stark quail]

💀

[glossy current]

boston g00ner activities

[dusty silo]

😭

[glossy current]

bro once my friends and i had the excellent idea of walking down mass ave at 2am

[dusty silo]

o hell no

[glossy current]

saw some random mf passed out on the side of the street

[fading socket]

ok but r we talking bmc mass ave or symphony mass ave

[glossy current]

this was near mass ave station

then some homeless guy almost chased my friend down

near mass and tremont

[fading socket]

oh so like symphony

that checks out

[glossy current]

closer to symphony than bmc yes

[fading socket]

theres the expensive south end and the subsidized south end

[glossy current]

bmc mass ave is crazy

never been there on foot, only driven through a couple times

[glossy current]

ngl when i realized south end isnt entirely rich it kinda blew my mind

bc i think a lot of ppl just see columbus ave and assume thats the whole south end

meanwhile mass and cass is still technically south end

or border of it at least

[crisp cargo]

can someone help me with understanding my aid package?

where does it say the actual cost to attend

does this mean i got 41,000 in grants?

[glossy current]

yes

it doesnt say the cost of attendance on there

should be here: https://admissions.northeastern.edu/cost-financial-aid/

so ig just subtract ur aid from the amount on this page

[crisp cargo]

yeah it says 46,000 in total

damn bruh i thought i would be paying 90k

[glossy current]

😭

that would suck lol

90k is not worth it for this school

or any school

unless ur loaded

[crisp cargo]

yeah thats crazy

[steep moss]

hi nice to meet you

[glossy current]

damn ur paying 90k here?

rip

[steep moss]

i didnt get financial aid anywhere unfortunately lol

now grnated there are definitely people who could use it more than me but paying less never hurts haha

[glossy current]

oh rip

[glossy current]

yeah, valid

[minor hedge]

i’m sort of stuff on my loci

it’s recommended to add updated achievements

but there isn’t really much

the only thing is that i’m finishing the semester will all A’s so that’s something

[crisp cargo]

yeah man u got this

r u doing ED2?

[minor hedge]

yes

i checked previous history it’s either gonna come out feb 5th or feb 12th

😭

i got 2 other decisions in february and I have a trip towards the end👨‍🦯👨‍🦯

[quasi spear]

I got ED into NEU. Do I need to withdrawal all my other applications now ?

[bright jetty]

You should do it once you have a fin aid package

So if you have one that’s satisfactory then yes

[quasi spear]

Ahh i see

thanks

[modest prism]

Am I the only one who got deferred?

[minor hedge]

me too

but we running it back in ed2

is it possible to get deferred twice?

[short tulip]

wait how did u get that already

[cold snow]

Anyone else get a non binding offer. London was #1 and we got Boston. No financial aid offer, but we did the early read. We have a non custodial parent waiver so that may be the hold up.

[crisp cargo]

you can see it when you pay your deposit

[short tulip]

wait where

on the portal or somewhere else

bcs i didnt see anything new

also is ur fafsa shown as awaiting or received

[crisp cargo]

awaiting

it’s on the portal

On the right

It’ll say view your financial aid letter

[wispy pine]

when ea come out

[minor hedge]

we ball then

[minor hedge]

late january

[wispy pine]

bra

[fading socket]

im in the trenches so maybe not

[minor hedge]

hopefully not

i’m in the trenches trenches

like less than 30k a year type

😭🙏

[crisp cargo]

I think they are need aware so they do factor that in

[minor hedge]

it says they are awaiting my non custodial profile but when i go to css profile

everything is already submitted

and i submitted it like end of november

[upper idol]

chat

where do you get the fee waiver

[fading socket]

wait why did it send twice

[fading socket]

ngl i didnt complete idoc till like 3 days before decision day so maybe not as much 💀

[half briar]

NU.in kids don't get govt aid for their first semester

once they're in boston they are eligible for FAFSA aid

but school based grants and scholarships are always available to them

this also applies to london scholars kids -> no govt aid for the first year but school based grants and scholarships instead

[short tulip]

ig its diff for everyone then

[short tulip]

i got it in an email

[upper idol]

i didnt bruh

[sand spire]

northeastern will not compensate for anything lol

[half briar]

mfw they deny my fin aid appeal three times in a row

[short tulip]

guys if i get a c in a class will they revoke my acceptance 😭

[glossy current]

nope

nuin kids get jack shit

so far i havent met a single person who was nuin and had any aid

[scenic spear]

hi!! i’m on here now as a first year at neu but it’s so cool seeing the college process as someone who made it out of the other side. congrats everyone!!

i was rejected from my ed1 school and was absolutely convinced i wasn’t getting in here but luckily i was accepted through ed2 at the boston campus :)

[minor hedge]

got deferred but hopefully i get accepted through ed2

[steep moss]

no youll be fine dw :)

i am pretty sure they outline the terms of admission in the portal, it should have the grade requirements in there too

and even if you fall below the threshold you can always talk to someone about it, all will be okay

[scenic spear]

yeah trust me! i had really bad grades in my senior yr. i got an email explaining my circumstances but i dont think they actually rescind unless your grades are like f’s

[glossy current]

ngl this is the reason i stick around here too

[scenic spear]

i had horrible anxiety about it so if this helps anyone i’m glad

[glossy current]

ye

i didnt think i would get in either

somehow managed to

also, senior year grades are chill as long as ur not failing

C is fine

[shut oyster]

idk man

unfortuantely i assume so

but if ur an excellent student

then theyre going to focus more on that rather than ur income

[gray vortex]

what are my odds ed1 deferred

and get in ed2

[modest prism]

I ED2'ed and I got deferred ED1

Just idk where to submit continued letter of interest + an update on academics and achievements

I can't find any places to upload updated resumes

And whatnot

[gray vortex]

i don’t see the upload documents anymore

[modest prism]

^

[gray vortex]

but the deferal letter said to do it jan 1st

[wispy pine]

how cooked am i applyign to ea

my parents didnt let me ed anywhere

so i had to do ea for all schools

[fading socket]

ngl very

unless u like showed a lot of demonstrated interest

[south oak]

I applied ea 😭🙏

[fading socket]

cuz they tend to defer a good chunk of kids ea

[wispy pine]

i oepened emails

thjats like

it

[fading socket]

id register for a visit on ur behalf but i cant get rescinded like that

[wispy pine]

low income too 🙏

[wispy pine]

what if i just like

register for a tour

then dont go

and then gaslight them

and say i went

[fading socket]

they take attendance

[wispy pine]

say u came inlate or sm

[minor hedge]

I emailed admissions

which they preferred through email or the portal

[minor hedge]

yeah everything opens again after jan 1st

I live in florida and northeastern is still my top choice should I make the trip in january to go take a tour of the school?

To show that I really care and they accept me through ed2😭🙏

[modest prism]

Alright appreciate it

Best of luck for us

[gray vortex]

they preferred email?

[minor hedge]

nah i asked which one they preferred

but I probably won’t submit my loci until the second semester starts

[short tulip]

they said not to fall below a c but are not limited to just that

[minor hedge]

so i can add updated grades and im volunteering somewhere so i might add that

but i don’t know if I should make the trip to the school

[gray vortex]

huhh so did they say they preferred teh email or the portal ?

[short tulip]

btw what does neu send for acceptance packages? also how long does it usually take after getting ur acceptance

[minor hedge]

haven’t responded yet

[crisp cargo]

I toured one of their campuses and maybe it gave me a boost

[minor hedge]

the next available date is february 3rd😭😭

the week ed2 comes out

[crisp cargo]

like honestly idk how I got in and yall got deferred honestly

cuz my stats are not that good

[minor hedge]

what were your stats?

[crisp cargo]

3.8 W 3.6 UW and I went test optional

I only had 4 extra curriculars

[cold snow]

They have virtual tours.

[crisp cargo]

I had a job, was on the track team and ran a food drive

[minor hedge]

oh yeah i’m gonna sign up for it then

[minor hedge]

that’s just aura then

😭😭

what did you put for campus preference

[cold snow]

I remember our tour guide had never been to Boston and only did virtual tours

[crisp cargo]

Boston

Oakland 2nd and nu in third

[minor hedge]

my ec’s was a coding project, 2 businesses, 700+ volunteer hours, fundraise money for youth programs, and then some 1 on 1 convo with senators that helped water down some aggressive bills

[minor hedge]

i switched my campus preference to any campus

maybe they want more out of me said they are basically gonna end up paying everything for me

cause i am very low income

[shut oyster]

ur essay was prob good

and also ur income matter

[modest prism]

President of 4 clubs, 3.8 unw, 2 internships,

Deferred

Test optional so that might be the rzn why

[fading socket]

def crazier than me

[modest prism]

I think

Bc my counselor didnt send in my senior year term 1?

I looked at the uploaded materials and it never indicated any thing new

Its alright we got babson on dec 15th

😎

[craggy mountain]

r u international

[modest prism]

No i live near boston

[craggy mountain]

bruh mb

maybe ur just the goat

u should aim higher

[modest prism]

I don't have the money for it

1st gen asian, fafsa sai score -1500

Kinda in the dumps LOL

[gray vortex]

bros just like me

[minor hedge]

1st gen hispanic 😭🙏

we are all cooked

i think aid maybe have been the issue

[gray vortex]

now that yall mention it

theres a pattern

[minor hedge]

probably wanted to see if spending all that money on us is worth it

[craggy mountain]

i thought they had good aid..?

[minor hedge]

😭🙏

[craggy mountain]

oh

LOL

nah dont upset me even more... 💔

[minor hedge]

everyone who i asked who was deferred needed some pretty hefty aid

[modest prism]

It's alright, doing us a favor tbh

No 80k a year bill

Binding

Still i wanna go 💀

[gray vortex]

they pay 100% need

[minor hedge]

yeah i don’t really wanna go to international because of that reason

0 aid provided

no way I could afford a semester

[craggy mountain]

😬

is it too late to do qb...

jk

[modest prism]

I'm still bummed on it

Im deciding ed2 bu or nu

Leaning towards nu

[craggy mountain]

same but this aid thing is making me a little antsy

[minor hedge]

in the process of learning everything about northeastern i fell in love with it more than BU

[craggy mountain]

have like no time to weigh my options

[craggy mountain]

what do u think sets northeastern apart

[fading socket]

i def need a lot of aid but i submitted aid docs late so i dont think they factored it in

[minor hedge]

maybe you got aura

my stats are decent

[modest prism]

I wanted nu for internship opportunies

[fading socket]

as i said it is a whole miracle i got in yo

my stats are ridiculous(ly bad)

[modest prism]

Phae you dserve it

[craggy mountain]

and thats amazing and we love that

[minor hedge]

vibes

[modest prism]

Don't down urself

[craggy mountain]

subjective tho

[minor hedge]

anybody who gets in definitely deserves it

[craggy mountain]

[craggy mountain]

When you’re beautiful you will find a way

[crisp cargo]

yeah no point in applying oos to a uc honestly

unless u can afford it

[crisp cargo]

yeah california is a hell on earth

[craggy mountain]

LOLLL

living there would be awful

icl

everyone there is a microinfluencer

[stiff frigate]

San Francisco is great

[crisp cargo]

well its really big

everyone is diverse

[crisp cargo]

i agree

[craggy mountain]

yea san francisco is so pretty but so many libs😒😒😒😒

[crisp cargo]

same with massachusetts lol

[craggy mountain]

i like mass

it smells like pee everywhere tho

in boston

like really bad

[crisp cargo]

idk about that

[craggy mountain]

no i swear

[stiff frigate]

hmmm MA has the best education, salary, quality of living, safety and unanimously votes democratic in every election 🤔

not to get political or anything

[crisp cargo]

yeah

salary is suprising

[craggy mountain]

those who know:

[crisp cargo]

safety is also suprising

[craggy mountain]

LOL

[stiff frigate]

ok idk about safety

[crisp cargo]

i dont think those two are true but

[stiff frigate]

still one of the best states

[crisp cargo]

its good

but the weather isnt that nice

[craggy mountain]

it’s really pretty

[crisp cargo]

in the summer months its really nice

[craggy mountain]

it looks like europe 😆❤️‍🩹

[fading socket]

also has a very high COST of living…

[craggy mountain]

it was humid when i went

i was so angry

[crisp cargo]

its always like that lmfao

is it not like that in florida

[craggy mountain]

LOL oh well

not really i don’t think

well it was a different kind of humidity…

[stiff frigate]

because people make good money + high demand

in europe people pay + 30% in taxes for free healthcare

its not a “cost of living thing” its a quality of life thing

[fading socket]

quality in boston is not v optimal tho

maybe suburbs

[stiff frigate]

well big cities in general have areas with poor quality of living

in every state

[fading socket]

i suppose so

but boston also has a shit ton of issues

educational inequity has been something bps has been tryna tackle and fun fact that shit has NOT been working 😭

[crisp cargo]

nah its definitely a cost of living

its abnormally high

[fading socket]

like aint nobody forgetting boston was, in addition to the things mentioned, ALSO dubbed most racist city in america

not to get political ofc

[crisp cargo]

lol

but the food there is WORTH the racism !

[stiff frigate]

sure boston has problems but i was talking about Massachusetts

[fading socket]

massachusetts is also p crazy tho

[stiff frigate]

You cant use the los Angeles homeless crisis to make a generalization about California

[crisp cargo]

well

[craggy mountain]

exactly ❤️‍🩹

[fading socket]

california is a huge state

[crisp cargo]

honestly the homeless problem is all over the state lmao

[stiff frigate]

so is MA arguably

[fading socket]

multiple massachusetts can fit in california

[crisp cargo]

yeah mass is really small

but tbf you go out over to springfield and it is really bad

[fading socket]

u can drive from boston to albany in 3 hours

[stiff frigate]

only a few major us cities have “solved” large scale homeless crises

[fading socket]

obv not as small as ri but 💀

[crisp cargo]

theres 0 bro

[stiff frigate]

seattle, denver

theres a few

[crisp cargo]

nah from my house san francisco is around 40 mins it takes 40 mins to go from providence to boston lol

[stiff frigate]

in my opinion i think MA is a pretty good state

atleast for higher education

but thats just my opinion lmao

[fading socket]

for colleges obv its amazing

[crisp cargo]

pretty good is underselling it

[fading socket]

its the birthplace of many vvvv good schools

[crisp cargo]

boston is more than just the downtown !!

people only go there when they visit

[fading socket]

my only problem w attending neu is ik NOBODY is leaving the northern half of the city for shit

[crisp cargo]

ong

[fading socket]

like why r we saying cambridge is a boston neighborhood

THATS ITS OWN CITY

[crisp cargo]

hp on top

best boston neighborhood

[fading socket]

albeit a smaller one but still

[fading socket]

nah bro dorchester is peak

NO CUZ

i saw this thrifting street interview

[crisp cargo]

ngl i cant lie when i visited over the summer dorchester actually got way nicer

[fading socket]

some guy attending neu was talkin ab how dorchester the best place to thrift n shi…

[crisp cargo]

damn bro

[fading socket]

[crisp cargo]

[fading socket]

[shut oyster]

@toxic quarry

[craggy mountain]

[short tulip]

god damn

based on that then

i should get like a full ride lmao

[shut oyster]

hopefully

🙏

[bright nimbus]

[short tulip]

idk how yall are getting ur financial aid packages already

[true pasture]

WAIT HEYY UR NEU 29

[broken vault]

ed2 ne after nyu rejection

[fading socket]

surprise!!

[short tulip]

do i have to withdraw all my other apps now that im in ed

[sand spire]

yes

once you commit you have to withdraw

[short tulip]

ok

[fluid crest]

yall NEU is my first choice next year and I'm taking the ACT is 2 days

Do you guys think applying ED while being a double legacy would make up for a 32-34?

[crisp cargo]

they don’t care about legacy at all

[fluid crest]

Cuz I'm really not confident I'll score a 34 or higher so I'm mildly panicking 😭

[crisp cargo]

Also isn’t a 34 a good score?

[fluid crest]

I've been misled 💀

[fluid crest]

It's NEU's average but the issue is I don't think I can get that

i'll probs get a 32 or 33 and it's stressing me out

[crisp cargo]

lol I feel you I went test optional

[fluid crest]

I'll be lucky if I can get a 34 or 35

[crisp cargo]

I had a 1340 SAT that I didn’t submit

[fluid crest]

hmm ok this did not soothe my doubts much 😭

[crisp cargo]

lol why not

Only 27 percent of student submit test scores

[fluid crest]

cuz I was mildly banking on legacy carrying me

[crisp cargo]

That’s why the average is so high

[fluid crest]

woah really? that's interesting

Would a relatively high-ish test score, ED, and some mid EC's be good enough for admission?

[crisp cargo]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fluid crest]

I have some pretty rigorous academics ig but I kinda figure that most applicants do

[crisp cargo]

yeah I mean considering there’s no supplementals the way they get to know u is through ecs and essay

[fluid crest]

I'm in a rural area so my ec's are kinda ok

there's just not a lot of opportunities for me

sigh I don't know if my essay will be good enough

[glossy current]

i mean, id imagine they take that into consideration

it wouldnt be fair to directly compare that to someone from the bay area for example

[quasi spear]

I havent received any information regarding my cost or scholarships yet

Im an international student and i just got my acceptance through ED

However, I dont know my Cost of attendance. I also dont know if i got any scholarships from Northeastern. What do I do? Should I email them?

[weak panther]

wait a couple days and reread your letter to see if there's any info about that

[craggy mountain]

wait is this true

i didn’t know this i thought u HAD to withdraw other apps regardless

[scenic spear]

this literally was me last yr lmao. still lowkey upset about that rejection

[scenic spear]

yes yes yes take advantage of it!! it’s completely free and i was able to get 8 credits before coming in the fall. the classes were asynchronous on canvas so not the greatest but it’s worth it

[quasi spear]

Hmm alrightt

[frank heath]

do u guys think i would be missing out on a lot if i commuted to neu for my first year because i live close enough

[fluid crest]

are you even allowed to? I heard that they require dorms for the first two years

[frank heath]

I live close enough to and i heard if u can live in like a 30 mile radius u can commute

But im planning on talking to a financial officer about it and if its worth it

[fluid crest]

yes 💀

housing is like 20k 😭

[inner hill]

holy smokes

[frank heath]

do u think it would be worth it to commute and still pay 70k or break ed and go to state school like i rly dont know 😭 and its just undergrad so i'm like is 70k every year rly worth it for undergrad when im probably just going to get my masters anyways

[fluid crest]

Aren’t there like serious consequences for breaking ed?

[frank heath]

I’m not sure but i really don’t think i can afford this. I asked the mechanic and he said i should still be able to apply to other schools

Do you know ahyone who has had a similar situation?

[fluid crest]

I googled it and it says breaking ED will hurt your reputation and you won’t really be able to go to that school for graduate

[short tulip]

somehow after getting into college my grades are dogshit now

[sand spire]

lol spring senioritis is crazy

i had it so bad that i got a B- in one of my dual enrollment courses bc once i knew i was passing i just stopped doing discussion posts

[short tulip]

no like

its the tests before i got into neu

then i got the grades back and they are just ass

[upper idol]

just submitted my app lol

[sand spire]

i mean unless you quite literally flunk out it’s hard to get rescinded senior year bc of grades

[short tulip]

theoretically if i get 2 Cs this semester would i get rescinded

ive had As and Bs every year

[sand spire]

you’ll be fine

i almost failed junior year and i got into northeastern w a scholarship lol

[broken vault]

what were your stats if u dont mind me asking

do u think it was a good decision to go to ne now

[frank heath]

yeah but better not being able to go to that school for grad than being 200k in debt 😔

[scenic spear]

3.8 uw & 4.8 w, test optional, and pretty average ecs (mostly volunteer work and a part time job)

[scenic spear]

yes i do! i think that the quality of education is likely the same at other schools but i do love the untraditional college experience with the co op program as the focus

[broken vault]

thanks

[fluid crest]

Have you gotten your aid package yet?

[short tulip]

where do i login after i claim my account

[frank heath]

Yeah they gave me nothing and I saw that they don’t negotiate aid at all

[fluid crest]

Oof you could probably talk to them about it so you can break ED more amiably

They’ll be more understanding if your financial aid package is just not enough

[frank heath]

Yeah im hoping for that 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

[bright nimbus]

wow they make a letter for withdrawing

[crisp cargo]

no

Dude idek if I can get even a C in math

I’m cooked

[minor hedge]

i’m so glad I locked in hard this semester makes me look good when they look at my application again😭😭

[upper idol]

cute

[craggy mountain]

Cure cancer

[sand spire]

you can’t really control that

[stiff frigate]

anything is possible

[short tulip]

be poor

[shut oyster]

they wanna be extra 😭

[shut oyster]

its ok i thought that as well but i got in

😭

i hope u did good on ur ACT

🙏

[minor hedge]

For anyone who got deferred the admissions office told me to submit your loci to their email and upload a copy in your portal under other

but would have to wait until January 1st when everything opens again

we still in this game

[shut oyster]

BEST OF LUCK TO YOU GUYS

🙏

[minor hedge]

i did bad on demonstrating interest

gonna let them know this time I want them

[short tulip]

show up at their doorstep and beg to be admitted

[minor hedge]

😭😭😭

gonna get a head start and just start showing up to classes rn

[fading socket]

email guess the admissions team and send them personalized emails

they have a list of whoever read ur app

by region, so i mean if that’s the start

strat *

[minor hedge]

yeah I found my regional AO but they don’t have personal emails

[fading socket]

ofc they do u just gotta find em 🤫

[minor hedge]

hmmm

[fading socket]

in fact

find out where they live and send a carrier pigeon to their doorstep

[minor hedge]

on their site they said that they would answer my email through the main one

😭😭

[short tulip]

does anyone know when i would get my financial aid package

[shut oyster]

idk lol they updatei t whenever they feellikit

[fluid crest]

wait I didn't know that so I searched and the ao is so random 😭

like they're in charge of my state

but also three rando countries in europe

and shanghai 💀

[fluid crest]

wait what do you even email the admissions team?

like a whole email glazing neu?

[fading socket]

help idk i’m just messing w ppl

[fluid crest]

I've heard of people like emailing the admissions team if they got deferred before but idk what they actually email them about

[fading socket]

i’m just being annoying but ppl should just submit their locis as requested idk

[fluid crest]

I've also heard some people email like before they get their decision as well

[minor hedge]

just email a letter of interest

state that northeastern is your top choice and you will attend if you end up going (worth more if you do ED2)

and list some accomplishments you did senior year so far and grades

there’s some templates on the reddit

[fluid crest]

ahh so is that what you send if you get deferred?

[minor hedge]

yes

[fluid crest]

ic ic that makes sense

[minor hedge]

you can send a letter rn even if you haven’t gotten your decision yet
