yeah

some people also said cs defer is more rare too idk how true that info is tho

[restive current]

rly hope i get purdue w but ik i aint gonna hear anything until the 31st 😔

is purdue defer as cooked as umd defer

umd defer is basically a death sentence right

[obsidian glacier]

well acc to statistics yes

but dont lose hopes

[restive current]

i didnt apply umd

[obsidian glacier]

umd

[restive current]

i've just heard it's cooked

[obsidian glacier]

oh

cs?

[restive current]

fye

[obsidian glacier]

oh

we cant say lmao

[restive current]

how cooked is purdue defer for cs

[obsidian glacier]

cooked

ur main competition is b/w deferred applicants

as far as people said

purdue cs rd is 💀

[bleak bay]

What email its a form

[fringe gyro]

some deferred ppl might start getting decisions next Friday....my friend last yr got around 7th or 8th March

dont remember

[restive current]

ik

the last wave on the 31st is always waitlists

and rejections

[ebon cipher]

Yeah probably a wave this Friday and next week

[ebon cipher]

Not true

Your chances are usually higher through an earlier decision but not 100% gone if you don’t get it

[hardy spear]

Alright guys got more decisions in

Purdue might not be my daddy 😢

[velvet hare]

??

u havent even got ur decision back bruv

😭

chill

[brazen kiln]

61A

bro i dont even think i can name that many schools

how tf

[hardy spear]

a lot of them are direct admit schools

like the no name ones 💀

[velvet hare]

they have a name

[sand aurora]

This was sent to me by one of my friends who was on an admitted students tour today

[eager kelp]

dayumm

wtf

[sand aurora]

went from 46 percent to 21 percent

one year difference

[sand aurora]

did not expect it to crash that much

[eager kelp]

that is insane wtf

[sand aurora]

at the same time, never expected rutgers to have a 35% acceptance rate

[brazen kiln]

wait is cs under engineering

[sand aurora]

no

[eager kelp]

I wonder how much polytechnic dropped

[sand aurora]

thats what my polytech friend also asked

after i showed him this image

[eager kelp]

interesting

I'm really curious about that

[velvet hare]

me when business school:

😊

HOORAY

[eager kelp]

If i don't get into UW i'm coming here next month for a admitted students day so i'll be curious to see if they have something like that

[marble wagon]

Ngl wanna know the college of science ar

[marble wagon]

Ngl i’m jelly, i wanna attend an accepted students dayyyyy

[eager kelp]

It's gonna be so fireeee i can't wait

[marble wagon]

Spam pics plz

[eager kelp]

I will fs'

[sand aurora]

I can't wait when the business school finishes construction on their new building

but that wont be done till 2027

[velvet hare]

oh nah

i gotta wait 2 years if i commit

😭

[pliant garnet]

holyy

[loud crow]

i need to know the cs %

[pliant garnet]

theyre prolly not gonna release it for a while

and im too lazy to email admissions

[velvet hare]

AAAAAAA

[obsidian glacier]

guys apparently grad students get free tuition if they become a TA

god damn purdue is rich 😭

[ebon cipher]

Oh my lord

[velvet hare]

😱

I wanna be a TA

[obsidian glacier]

i wanna be a RA

so bad

free room and board 😭

[marble wagon]

Is it true that they r adding more dorms? Any idea when those r gonna be done

[marble wagon]

So real

[marble wagon]

And 6.5k off tuition

[pliant garnet]

yeah kinda

[obsidian glacier]

dream come true

[pliant garnet]

theyre opening a new apartment complex next fall when yall are coming

and then theyre building a new one to open fall 2026

i want the 2026 dorms (hilly south 🙏 )

[obsidian glacier]

it seems they renting out apartments in indy asw

[marble wagon]

Apartment? Okay dc then 💀
Saw the cost of aspire n my bank acc cried

[pliant garnet]

UR apartments

[obsidian glacier]

i hope there isnt much competition for ra

😔

[pliant garnet]

i think its third and west

https://www.housing.purdue.edu/my-housing/options/apartments/3rd-west.html

[obsidian glacier]

whats the diff between apartments and dorms

[pliant garnet]

god damn hilariious

what a joke

[pliant garnet]

apartments dont get u a meal plan and a few more differences

idk that much since im planning on staying in dorms

but tay or ritvik may know more

[sinful viper]

hi

[pliant garnet]

hallo

whats the diff between UR apartments and dorms

[sinful viper]

more privacy

you can still get a meal
plan to my knowledge

you still have an RA

theyre usually way more $$

[pliant garnet]

oh so private bathrooms and rooms id suppose?

[sinful viper]

from my understanding yeah

[obsidian glacier]

how many rooms would there be in one floor

on average

[sinful viper]

for what

[obsidian glacier]

apartments

[sinful viper]

in urba? idk i imagine jt varies by complex

if youre wondering about how many people youd have to manage as an RA its usually around 50 here im pretty shre

[obsidian glacier]

oh 50?

💀

[sinful viper]

mhm

live a year in UR before deciding to commit to the RA application anyways

u need a reference and theres some credit requirements and stuff

[obsidian glacier]

ion have dorms here in indy

[sinful viper]

and you might realize jts not for you

[obsidian glacier]

so its just ur

[sinful viper]

UR includes urba

[obsidian glacier]

oh

nvm

[obsidian glacier]

im just in it for free housing

[sinful viper]

thatll come through in your application lol

they dont want people who are in it just for the pay

and they have their pick of people so

[obsidian glacier]

ohh shit

ig ill decide it once i enroll then

[marble wagon]

Isnt the meal plan separate though?

[pliant garnet]

there are some rules

im not sure exactly what

but yeah theyre separate, and theres some deal with meal plans in dorms vs aptments, but i dk what 😔

[marble wagon]

That deal better be a discount lol

Join the dorms n get $300 off your meal plan 🤑

[marble wagon]

What do RA’s do? Apart from roommate mediation n weekly events/hangouts

[glass lake]

they have to be on call at least once a week

and meet with other RAs typically once a week in addition to one-on-ones with their supervisor

they also have to know first aid and emergency response protocols

[obsidian glacier]

oh so its kinda a big commitment then

[marble wagon]

Do u have to know first aid before applying or do they train u

[restive current]

Yeah I’m ngmi

[fiery goblet]

whats ngmi

[restive current]

not gonna make it

praying the RD gods are lenient

[sinful viper]

not allowed to do first aid here

[sinful viper]

here?

• weekday on call once a week
• weekend on call once a month
• weekly event
• weekly newsletter
• bulletin board once a month

[marble wagon]

Wdym by on call?

I get it in hospital contexts but whats there to be on call for in a uni 💀

[sinful viper]

if anything with a resident goes down you need to help

that could be medical emergency, alcohol busts, etc

this would all be explained in the info session when you apply

[vocal solar]

there's similar policies (at least to some extent) in a lot of unis

[obsidian glacier]

did anyone here take a co op

[vocal solar]

my cousin worked as a TA, got tuition paid off for each semester she worked

[obsidian glacier]

woahh damn

[ripe badge]

we love the baby boom 😁🔫

[astral breach]

Do yall know RD decision date

[fringe gyro]

its rolling

every friday some decisions will roll out

till 31st March

[pliant garnet]

Wait and is this ea data only?

and rd will be even worse?

[brazen kiln]

prolly will

engineering is priority ea right

[pliant garnet]

I would think so

[astral breach]

Thats a thing?

Wow i didnt know that

Thanks

[karmic parcel]

[slim pivot]

[restive current]

there might be a batch coming today right

[restive current]

[brazen kiln]

according to some sources

[obsidian glacier]

oh people are doing that?

dam

[fringe gyro]

yeah lot of ppl chose indy

after deferral

[obsidian glacier]

indy's population will drastically increase then

[fringe gyro]

this year, considering how tough it has become to get into Purdue, yeah

[karmic parcel]

bro

indy?

ah hell nah

(no offense to indy mfs)

[restive current]

[marble wagon]

[mystic agate]

Does Purdue let us see it?

Yeah same

[mystic agate]

Would cs be lower than fye

[brazen kiln]

i think every college is legally required to let u see it if u ask

[mystic agate]

Oh wow

[visual ermine]

No I asked a college and they said they purge all application files

[brazen kiln]

oh wtf

[brazen kiln]

like application files? or enrolled student files

i'd imagine they purge all applications except for those which were accepted

[velvet hare]

Dawg

Stop w the portal astrology

[frozen moss]

its not portal astrology just my portal hasn't changed since i got deferred ea so i was a bit worried

[rugged sequoia]

Did Mung Chiang invite you guys to DC asw

[obsidian glacier]

DC?

[rugged sequoia]

Im an Intl applicant 😭

[visual ermine]

I asked about application files so if application files

[restive current]

[frozen moss]

oh alright thanks!

[restive current]

[obsidian glacier]

danggggg

[obsidian glacier]

oh DC means Washington DC?

[eager kelp]

[restive current]

thats like the most cooked one ngl

[obsidian glacier]

its ok just become a RA

free housing

[restive current]

[obsidian glacier]

and there are a lot of co ops which pay well if u grind properly

eg: rolls royce

[restive current]

they will deny u

[obsidian glacier]

u just need to show for first year

no?

[fiery goblet]

💔

[fiery goblet]

what’s that

[obsidian glacier]

dont u go to a ibcp

[fiery goblet]

what’s that

[obsidian glacier]

school

ibdp but same thing

[restive current]

it counts as visa fraud p sure if u cant afford

[obsidian glacier]

loans exist? idk actually how it works

[restive current]

bruh

10% apr loan

at minimum

from private banks

u are ngmi unless u start earning 6 figs immediately

[restive current]

r u like 30k efc cant afford or 10k efc cant afford

[fiery goblet]

i do but they’re kinda fuckass so they don’t tell me shit

[restive current]

if u go to an ib school u arent poor so chill

[fiery goblet]

what is efc dawg.

[restive current]

how much can u pay per year

[fiery goblet]

Oh

[restive current]

for everything

[radiant echo]

how much your parents will be able to pay a year

[fiery goblet]

I can pay up to 35-40k UsD

USD

[restive current]

then ur fine

[fiery goblet]

Does that mean my EFC is 35k

[restive current]

just apply publics ea and have 41 atleast ib and 1510+ sat

[restive current]

yea

[fiery goblet]

Ohhh

Alr

Thanks

[restive current]

is this without loans

[fiery goblet]

Uhh probably

[restive current]

u can probably stretch to 60k then but only do it if the roi is worth it

[fiery goblet]

If i do take a loan it’s gonna be like 6-10k

[restive current]

like uiuc cs or smth

[fiery goblet]

tops

[fiery goblet]

is that too much

i don’t know shit about finances and money

[restive current]

no thats fine

[fiery goblet]

i’m financially illiterate

[restive current]

if ur program has even decent roi 10k/yr loan fine

[fiery goblet]

my parents don’t even tell me how much they make

there’s a possibility that they can pay like 200k but god knows

[restive current]

u can pay off 40k loan in 1 yr

prolly

[fiery goblet]

(that possibility is 0.0001% like a secret billionaire type thing)

[fiery goblet]

What

Fr???

[radiant echo]

from purdue/uiuc def

[fiery goblet]

DAMn

[restive current]

u can if u go lean for a year and have decent roi degree

[fiery goblet]

is ai a decent roi degree

ai at purdue

[radiant echo]

you probably wont even need to lean
median starting salary at purdue is like 110k and at uiuc its 130k

[restive current]

ai too new so idk i recco cs

[fiery goblet]

what is RA.

[restive current]

even 20k/yr loan is fine if it's smth like uiuc cs

[fiery goblet]

Tf is lean medium what

wait

oh

i’m blind

[fiery goblet]

Aight bet tysm

[radiant echo]

this dude said lean in the sense that you can be stingy with how you live

[restive current]

yeah

[fiery goblet]

i already am.

[radiant echo]

discuss this with your parents

also if you are from india

the conversion fee is stupid high

get a loan and pay through it

[fiery goblet]

i imagined spending 500$ on just rice so i’d make it thru college with 2000$ on food instead of 10k

(this is a joke but like ya)

[radiant echo]

for the entire thing

[fiery goblet]

IT IS 😭

[radiant echo]

transfer from loan --> college
and then same day tell your parents to payback whatever amt the fee is

basically u accrue no interest

[restive current]

@fiery goblet check dm

[radiant echo]

but get to skip the conversion fee (10% to 0.5%)

whatever is left pay it off once you get a job

you will probably end up saving a significant amount of money esp in INR 👍

make sure you do your math right

[fiery goblet]

wait like

loan for the entire fee?

even if i can pay for it?

[radiant echo]

ye thats what im doing

[fiery goblet]

Wait

[fiery goblet]

But why

How does that

like

Help

[radiant echo]

come dm i feel like loan/finances are like a sketchy topic to talk about

[fiery goblet]

Alr

[radiant echo]

not relevant to purdue either

[obsidian glacier]

resident assistant

[fiery goblet]

Tf is that

[marble wagon]

EFC is called SAI now n its determined by fafsa, chances r it’ll be alot lower or higher. My parents said they could afford 40k per year but my sai is alot lower so it varies

[obsidian glacier]

u handle disputes and handle emergencies

b/w ur dorm mates

[fiery goblet]

Ohhh

Does becoming that person thingy make the dorm fees free?

Like

[obsidian glacier]

wait what

[fiery goblet]

i can live in dorms for free???

[obsidian glacier]

yes

very competitive

but if u do get it

ggs

[fiery goblet]

Did you get it

[radiant echo]

youll have a lot of work though (from what i've read)

[fiery goblet]

thats okay

anything for reduction of price.

[obsidian glacier]

are u from india asw?

[radiant echo]

yeh

[obsidian glacier]

ill dm u tmrw ig, even im planning on taking pretty big amount of loans

[sinful viper]

as an RA? yeah

[hardy spear]

That’s my plan lol

How hard is it to become an ra tho

I’d assume it’s competitive

[lament trout]

hello

[pliant garnet]

Very

[wide scroll]

Not research assistant?

[sinful viper]

um they take about ~100 applicants per year in west lafayette and ik they had well over 1000 people apply this past year.

so do with that information what you will

[gritty valley]

congrats man!! can i ask what made u end up choosing notre dame over purdue in the end

[hardy spear]

Anyone get decisions today for west Lafayette?

😢

[surreal flume]

nope

[hardy spear]

Aww 😔

[karmic parcel]

Hard as a mf

[sand aurora]

yes. There are two buildings under construction and numerous apartment buildings being constructed around west lafayette

[sand aurora]

they usually release on fridays

[ebon cipher]

Hopefully something on Friday

[glacial trench]

the opportunities I had to explore my culture and faith at notre dame was a large factor. I loved the vibe and energy at ND, and although the back and forth was the engineering program difference between the two. the alumni network of Notre Dame in my mind compensates for that. and for some reason i would prefer a smaller school even though i am very much an extrovert

[ivory hollow]

i think that like every year it releases on march 31st

[ebon cipher]

It’s by March 31st

And they usually release some decisions every Fridays

(Based on previous years idk about this year)

[ivory hollow]

ohhh i heard most years it's like

the 31st

do you know when the released RD last year?

[hardy spear]

It’s not looking likely this year lol 😭

[ebon cipher]

It was Fridays until the 31st last year

[ebon cipher]

Yeah I’d assume like 85% of decisions come out on the 31st

[ivory hollow]

ohhh so they've been spreading out the decisons

do you get an email if your decision is changed?

[ebon cipher]

I’d assume so

[frozen moss]

most likely yep

[ivory hollow]

okay good

but kinda weird bc i haven't gotten an email with my intial notification

[frozen moss]

it had come a little bit after decisions came out on the portal

[ivory hollow]

omg

does purdue's RD go out in waves?

[frozen moss]

i heard that majority of decisions come out on 31st but they do send some out every week on wednesdays and fridays

[ivory hollow]

ohh i see

[vocal solar]

you got your decision?

when?

[frozen moss]

oh no no that wasmy early action decision ahah

[vocal solar]

ahh I see

[ivory hollow]

oof

[frozen moss]

hopefully they send out some decisions this friday

[slim pivot]

wait so majority will be released on the 31st itself?

[hardy spear]

Prolly most rejections and waitlists

[ripe badge]

we dont know

yeah id think the 31st is filled with nonadmits

[gritty valley]

sounds like a really good fit for u then, wishing u the best

i just need one acceptance to make me not think i’m worthless

🥲

[brazen kiln]

ong same

[ivory hollow]

frfr

what other schools did you apply to??

[brazen kiln]

a lot but rn my only main options are my state school and gt (defer) and purdue (defer)

i did a lot of ucs but i changed my mind about going to cali

and then i dont wanna do rutgers

hbu

[west pollen]

when do waitlists come out

[grim sonnet]

same day as rd

[hardy spear]

Purdue today? Fr fr?

[restive current]

only if u get in rd

[hardy spear]

Stop edging me bro 😭

[hardy spear]

Yeah I got deferred :((

[restive current]

theres 4 waves

[hardy spear]

Oh damn

[restive current]

as in

if u got in

after being deferred

you'll get it today

[hardy spear]

Yeah :((

[restive current]

last wave is mostly rejection/wl

[hardy spear]

I hope 🤞

[ebon cipher]

I mean

No one knows if there’s wave today

We haven’t been told anything

[restive current]

they got rid of the loci button

[ebon cipher]

So 🤷‍♂️

[restive current]

that's a good sign

[ebon cipher]

That doesn’t mean anything 🤷😭

[restive current]

havent theyr eleased on fridays for like 5 years

atp

[ebon cipher]

It just means they don’t want people submitting LOCI anymore

They’ve had 1.5 months to do it

If the person actually cared about deferral they would’ve sent the LOCI in much earlier

So closing it now makes no difference

[brazen kiln]

wait so there's no chance i got in if i don't get in today?

[restive current]

no you still have a good chance

but it goes down with every wave

[brazen kiln]

ahh ok

and if i'm the last wave i'm basically cooked

not even basically i am cooked

💀💀

[restive current]

yeah barring insane luck

p much

last year almost everyone got WL in last wave

[brazen kiln]

hopefully i get in today

[wide scroll]

🫸PURDUE🫷

[hardy spear]

PURDUE 🔥

[hardy spear]

My prediction is that it comes out today for some people for sure, they haven’t released for a long while so I’m sure they’ve been evaluating space for programs and seeing how many they can admit so they don’t make the same problem as last year

[frozen dagger]

I wonder what time today

[fringe gyro]

what time was EA out

[restive current]

4 pm est

[fringe gyro]

yea probably around that time they might release

every Friday

[restive current]

ngl i think very few ppl are going to get in off defer

im just hoping madison pulls through for me

goddamn if only i skipped a grade

so much easier last year

[fringe gyro]

did u apply rd or are u deferred

[restive current]

deferred

who tf applies purdue rd 😭

same time

as now

first friday of march

4 pm est

[frozen moss]

same here 😔

[restive current]

ik ppl say defer aint a rejection but purdue it basically is

tbh

[frozen moss]

yea we can only pray

[fringe gyro]

yall are engineering and cs?

[restive current]

yea

[frozen moss]

ye

[fringe gyro]

good luck

[frozen moss]

thanks

[restive current]

ur chance is very good if ur not

@fringe gyro

only engineering and cs have priority ea

[frozen moss]

got in umich and uw madison but deferred purdue 😔

[restive current]

so rd is the same chance as ea for other majors

[fringe gyro]

yep I am not any engineering or cs major...but last year they overenrolled

[ocean lichen]

bro what

how

[fringe gyro]

like 1,500 ppl

thats a lot

[frozen moss]

i have no clue

[fringe gyro]

how did they accomodate them

[restive current]

bro i wish i had that i just got rejected uiuc

[ocean lichen]

isnt umich hella more competitive

[frozen moss]

i got waitlisted there 😭

[frozen moss]

it iss thats what im confused abt

its jus luck atp

[ocean lichen]

lets hope my rng is goated

[restive current]

eveyr other purdue defer has goated decisions or decent at the very least i just have safety Ws and uiuc reject

ngmi

[ocean lichen]

ur me fr

except purdue reject also

[fringe gyro]

what all schools u got

[restive current]

psu i dont wanna go to fucking penn state 😭

0 aura

[fringe gyro]

are u intl?

[restive current]

yea

[fringe gyro]

okay it figures why u would say that lol

[restive current]

i sholdnt have applied all rd

ngl

except purdue

[fringe gyro]

why did u then

😭

[restive current]

i didnt think uiuc rd was hard

i thought it was the same as ea

[frozen moss]

how many unis yet to come?

[restive current]

like 10

i think idk

[frozen moss]

oh same here

[fringe gyro]

this year every college is very competitive

[ocean lichen]

[restive current]

[fringe gyro]

[frozen moss]

i have all my reaches and dreams this month 😭

[restive current]

me asw

[ocean lichen]

we will get rejected together

[restive current]

yea idt im getting it this wave

i submitted my loci a bit late so it makes sense

copium ngl

[hardy spear]

I submitted mine 6 days after I got deferred

I hope I get my decision today :((

[frozen moss]

same

idm getting rejected tbh i just want the decision

[hardy spear]

I don’t know if it’s based on when you submit loci tho

[fringe gyro]

same

[hardy spear]

My sat is kinda low for engineering

[fringe gyro]

cant be edged till end of March

[remote nymph]

What’s the source on getting the first wave today

[hardy spear]

So I don’t think I’m gonna get in :((

[remote nymph]

Are we just hoping

[frozen moss]

they'll prolly get done with deferred students first right

[hardy spear]

Previous years

[fringe gyro]

honestly 2024 rd megathread on reddit

[remote nymph]

I see

I’ll take a look

[restive current]

they've always released rd decisions in waves every friday in march

Idk guys 😦

[fringe gyro]

why did u change ur name

[hardy spear]

Purdue might not be mine :((

I’m scared 😭

[fringe gyro]

dont get discouraged

[obsidian glacier]

NO DONT LOOSE HOPE

[hardy spear]

😔

[obsidian glacier]

PURDUEWILLBEYOURDADDY

[fringe gyro]

just remember if u dont get a decision today doesnt mean ur rejected

[obsidian glacier]

trust

[hardy spear]

Yeah 😞👍

[fringe gyro]

ppl were getting acceptances too last wave

[hardy spear]

👌 Purdue pull through

[obsidian glacier]

if my change major app gets through

ill be happy

[rugged sequoia]

What r u changing your major to

[obsidian glacier]

purdue indy cs to west laf ai

but then honestly i'd stick to indy

[rugged sequoia]

Nahh go for west laf

It’s better fr

[obsidian glacier]

idk lets see

[fringe gyro]

I bet it’ll come out today

At least some wl decisions

[sand aurora]

I second that

the only reason why you would want to go to indy over west laf is if you are doing motorsports or a major that isn't really offered on main campus

[obsidian glacier]

how cooked am i

if i submitted that change of location form

do they even consider those

[rugged sequoia]

Ong

I agree completely

The only reason to choose Indy if you value the Purdue prestige and don’t have an option to switch to laf

Imma try and transfer to laf after my first year if I end up commiting here, I have heard it’s rlly challenging to do tho

[marble wagon]

honestly i wouldnt risk it unless u have no other options

or r in-state

[rugged sequoia]

Well my other options are Penn state, Umass, Rutgers

So kinda prefer Purdue over all of these

[fringe gyro]

are u cs major? umass is like t20 I think

for cs

[rugged sequoia]

Yeah

[rugged sequoia]

It’s 24th
Purdue is 19th

But like that’s the main campus so I guess that’s that

[marble wagon]

you'd prolly have a better experience at umass than purdue indy

psu also (mad expensive though if u r oos)

[rugged sequoia]

Yeahh fair enough

[marble wagon]

wait u r prefrosh?

doesnt that mean you've already committed?

[obsidian glacier]

u got like 6 schools surrounding you

crazy experience

[marble wagon]

what?

[obsidian glacier]

u got like a lot of lacs

right beside umass

[marble wagon]

oh lol

idk anything abt umass except its location and cost
i looked into applying cuz they r generous with merit aid but didnt like the campus

[brazen kiln]

when'd you submit urs

bro i submitted mine a month after ea

😭 hopefully mine still comes today

[restive current]

if u submitted it before they closed the form

you're fine

you might not get it today

[restive current]

feb 28

im more cooked than you

[brazen kiln]

oh yeah ur cooked

i did mine feb 14

😭

[restive current]

no i emailed them they said

if i submitted they're obligated to read it

good chance

i wont get it this wave tho

[brazen kiln]

yeah you'll be fine with ur decision but i think you def wont get it this wave

but yo'ull get accepted ong trust

[fringe gyro]

thats true, umass Amherst is like 2 hrs away from all the big shot schools like MIT, Harvard and all

Boston is a great city bro

strong option

[bleak bay]

Fr? Blessed

I submitted pretty late too

[restive current]

yea

they also say this in the auto email u get after submitting it

that they'll reread it considering the new info

they went out of thier way to close the loci form

so i think everyone is getting read

[bleak bay]

Makes sense

[rugged sequoia]

Nah according to the desc it means you got offers but you’re deciding

Or I could be tweaking

[obsidian glacier]

prefosh means u alr committed to a uni

and waiting for it

pre freshman

i guess

[rugged sequoia]

Oh lmao

Imma change it up now

[obsidian glacier]

i mean

just keep it

nvm

[rugged sequoia]

How do you post your commitments anyway

That channel is read only

[rapid fractal]

me who skipped into the year with the most births

[restive current]

gg

[sinful viper]

hello nerds

[sinful viper]

verify and then you'll get the perms to chat in there iirc

[rugged sequoia]

Oh I see

Ty

[sand aurora]

they probably do consider them, but it probably goes on a capacity basis

[restive current]

indy is basically guaranteed though

admission

it's like 80% or something no?

i have a hunch that very few people will get accepted after defer this year tbh it just looks too cooked

[restive current]

has anyone gotten anything yet

[hardy spear]

4 pm est

[restive current]

aint that in 5 mins

@hardy spear you got deferred?

does ur portal still say decided

[hardy spear]

Yeah

Still says decided

[hardy spear]

Yes

[restive current]

last year for people who were getting their decision on that day it would update to "completed" before

i think they fixed it

[hardy spear]

Oh really?

[restive current]

yes

[hardy spear]

What does it say now

[restive current]

decided

for me

dont think anyone has completed

[hardy spear]

It’s always said that

[brazen kiln]

decided for me as well

still see loci thing where it says submitted on feb smth

[restive current]

anyone get in?

[brazen kiln]

didnt get it

[fringe gyro]

it’s in an hour

5 pm est

4 pm central

[brazen kiln]

oh shit

[fringe gyro]

yes yes

[restive current]

huh

where did u get this

info btw

last time it was 4 pm est

iirc

[fringe gyro]

ea decisions released 5 pm est

[brazen kiln]

this is what it was last time for ea too but some of them js dropped early

[fringe gyro]

yes

[restive current]

no they dropped Ws at 4 pm

they dropped defers at 5

and some Ws

[brazen kiln]

ohh

[restive current]

and rejects asw

[fringe gyro]

maybe they’ll release all at 5 now

unless it’s not until next week

[brazen kiln]

holy edge job

[fringe gyro]

yes fr like

i guess we’ll only be sure within the next hour

but if it’s not until next week i’m gonna crash out

[brazen kiln]

ye

[hardy spear]

last time I got my decision at 4 pm central

So makes sense, it’s in an hour

[brazen kiln]

same

[hardy spear]

Some admitted people ea got their 30 minutes early

[brazen kiln]

ye

[hardy spear]

So best case it’s at 3:30 central

[brazen kiln]

earliest i saw an admission was 4:40 est ish

[sinful viper]

officially, decisions drop at 5pm on fridays. they might drop some stuff a bit earlier but that is defo because our website is actualy dogshit and cant handle a billion people on it at any given time

[fringe gyro]

no way they make us wait another week right?

[sinful viper]

you'd be surprised

[restive current]

bro if you got in you'll get in between now and the 22nd

[sinful viper]

they just said by March 31 or whatever so...

[hardy spear]

Maybe man never know

[restive current]

if not you almost certainly got rejected/waitlisted

[hardy spear]

Yeahhh

[sinful viper]

assume you'll get them on the 31st and just be pleasantly surprised if you happen to get it earlier

[fringe gyro]

imagine they wait to release all decisions on the 31st

[restive current]

barely anyone gets accepted on the 31st

[restive current]

they wont

they release all the WLs on 31

which is cruel
