[crisp elk]

we're actually turning into rabid hyenas

[fierce basalt]

[dim thorn]

ur also talking about holding it in like its a shit lmao

[shadow cairn]

okok

[jolly plank]

[shadow cairn]

Close enough

[dreamy dagger]

phone call earlier today said that they would START tmr morning but obviously that was a me when i lie moment

so assuming they didn't completely lie the rest should come out in the morning

[wind python]

https://tenor.com/view/kamala-harris-do-not-come-gif-25102112

I am trolling

[junior sonnet]

sorry

[compact helm]

[compact helm]

[wind python]

Good… good

[crisp elk]

this is

a collective tweak out

from the

ED kids

[dreamy dagger]

EXACTLY

[chilly iron]

youre still here

[wind python]

yes

[chilly iron]

you already got in tho

[spare fox]

does cmu ask for loci? for waitlist

[wind python]

yeah

[crisp elk]

😭

[shy tinsel]

hi quick question WHERE IS MY DECISION

ive been waiting all day and its still not here

and i ed'd vro 💔

ts pmo sm rn icl 🥀

[crisp elk]

lol

join the gang

I'm actually gonna cry if I get rejected

[whole cloud]

based on the numbers i calculated 20~25% of ppl get wl

which means that we’re all cooked and theres like a 1% chance of getting in

[ionic cairn]

💀

Does that mean that I'm competative atleast for schools of this caliber?

been denied straight dart, uchicago, UT, and UNC

[grave shale]

is there a preliminary estimate of what the cmu waitlist looks like at the moment

is it insanely long again

[ionic cairn]

dart ed1, uchicago ed2

bio everywhere

:/

bless 🙏

13 more :P

aswell :O

[agile sandal]

How generous is CMU’s financial aid

[wind python]

yall need to sleep

[crisp elk]

no

you need to sleep

[shadow cairn]

what if cmu drops now and jumpscares us deferred kidsw

[tulip prism]

it seems cmu doesn't release ed defer's results today

anyone got that?

[shadow cairn]

didn’t people say some ppl got rejections

[tulip prism]

I mean those who got defer in ED

[shadow cairn]

yeah

[static cedar]

tweaking the fuck out

icl

[shadow cairn]

yeahahhahahahhahah

[crisp elk]

This is actually such a cmu scs moment

[crisp elk]

Wait why lol

[wind python]

welcome to Pittsburgh, my friend!

[crisp elk]

Surely we're part of the WL/accept batch right

[static cedar]

everyone except the ed people got

decisions

would piss me off for ed ing

[crisp elk]

Yeah but I mean

After thinking about it

Maybe I have a chance

[crisp elk]

Surely

[crisp elk]

say this to me after I get in

/s for obvious reaosns

[wind python]

yes

[whole swan]

To be honest this is actually quiet annoying that they didn’t release the ED deferred decisions 😭

Anyone who got deferred got their decision?

[crisp elk]

One person got wl

Others got rejections

[wind python]

I’m sitting on my beanbag, wearing a tie dye shirt and rainbow blanket, talking in my office, waiting for my queer friends to fall asleep. I feel great!

[crisp elk]

Nonzero chance were apart of

The accepted/WL batch

pgh how much cope is this

[thorn heart]

For those who applied to SCS and got in, I wanted to ask about ur applications & stats (just curious)

[wind python]

[shadow cairn]

No

[dreamy dagger]

Hahaha join the club

[round jay]

okayy 😦

[whole swan]

[proper sparrow]

[dreamy dagger]

Only some ED defer to rejection have heard back

[dreamy dagger]

OOOH yeah

[round jay]

WHEN?

[dreamy dagger]

Last night

[round jay]

Oh 😦

[dreamy dagger]

So we’re still in the game

Actual torture tho

[obtuse pivot]

What about defer to acceptance

Have any defer to acceptance heard back

[dreamy dagger]

No one we know of last night got a defer to accept

[obtuse pivot]

Bruh

[shadow cairn]

[shadow cairn]

HUH

[obtuse pivot]

So most ppl who heard back from ed defferal were rejected

Right?

[compact arrow]

i saw someone else say that aswell

[karmic robin]

Yeah

[shadow cairn]

ohh

[karmic robin]

is the waitlist form a loci basically

[woeful pendant]

can any old people please tell me if decisions have been delayed till mondays in previous years when they started rolling friday?

[sand dock]

the wl ratio goes crazy

[woeful pendant]

16k to 32 iirc

[compact arrow]

i saw some thing on google about them releasing them all from friday - sunday, in past years

[sand dock]

this is worse than last year

[woeful pendant]

only deferred people are left it seems like 😭

[compact arrow]

yea but it seems that some defered then rejected people heard back

[dreamy dagger]

Yeah

[woeful pendant]

apparently

[sand dock]

its ok if i just ignore it right

wl won't be considered if i just never do the form right

[shadow cairn]

Last year decisions rolled on sat too

[woeful pendant]

bruh

[whole swan]

wait really?

[shadow cairn]

Yeah

[round jay]

WHERE IS IT 🗣️🗣️

WHEN IS IT 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[proper sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/cmu-carnegie-mellon-melon-carnegie-mellon-university-gif-23247908

[round jay]

I can’t bruh I can’t

[dreamy dagger]

They’re fucking with us man

This is crazy

[mild galleon]

what if the portal is just broken

[woeful pendant]

lmao

[dreamy dagger]

Idk bro

This is just ridiculous

[obtuse pivot]

probs today at 4pm

then? or like march 31st

imma j say march 31st at this point

[crisp elk]

Beaver breakdown kek

[round jay]

☹️

anything anyone??

[crisp elk]

Nope

[jolly cape]

sob

maybe they rushed decisions

[trail ember]

I think they just wl everyone 😭😭😭

[willow minnow]

Generally pretty bad

[jolly cape]

😭 😭

wait i selected information systems as my first choice

why were my second choice options only architecture or drama

thats why i didnt pick a second choice

[trail ember]

😭

[static cedar]

ye

mfs filtered out people

and didnt do ANYTHING after that

[jolly cape]

bruh

ts pmo

i think my essays saved me from becoming a straight reject ngl

[static cedar]

who knows

they only rejected 30% asw

lol

im hoping/guessing all filtered ppl passed the academic cutoff

atleas

t

[lone dock]

In my cmu acceptance letter there’s no mention of the major I got into even though I applied ece. I thought the policy this year is that students get admitted directly to their engineering major

Does this mean I got in engineering undeclared?

[static cedar]

all cmu schools

are undeclared

im p sure

[lone dock]

https://www.ece.cmu.edu/admissions/index.html

[static cedar]

whatev

u can choose

if ur undeclare

d

ur good eitherways

[lone dock]

I’m aware that cmu did previously have restricted undeclared engineering admits who could not declare ece

I hope that’s not the case this year

[crisp elk]

who's here to save the deferred kids

[shrewd gyro]

It did change this year

I’m not 100% sure but I thought they made this cycle restricted for ece

[mild galleon]

wait what

wdym restriscted

[dreamy dagger]

We out here worse than rejected

Forgotten

[lone dock]

did other people who got admitted to engineering get their major explicitly mentioned in the deicsion letter?

[echo vault]

Did they?

I just got into the college of engineering in general

Didn't mention ece specific at all

[lone dock]

yeah same

[echo vault]

I didn't

Hmmm

Yeah I have no idea but surely it's not restricted or they would mention it right? That would be very silly

[lone dock]

yeah

i'll be sending an email on monday to confirm

[echo vault]

Sounds good, if you could ping me with what they say I would appreciate it 🙏

[shrewd gyro]

Hmmm

So I think they had a policy but changed it

It seems you can declare any major I think

[crisp elk]

😭 vrr can you annoy the admission offices irl

[echo vault]

Any source online? I believe you I just want to know for sure haha

[crisp elk]

I'm so goddamn close to losing it

[agile bolt]

good luck man 😭

[crisp elk]

Why us

[agile bolt]

i got rejected super early lmao so maybe it being late is a good thing :)

[dreamy dagger]

nothing for 12PM

[crisp elk]

Wen did you get ur decision

[agile bolt]

like 18h ago

[crisp elk]

If you don't mind telling

[agile bolt]

or something

[dreamy dagger]

congrats chat the admissions officer lied about morning releases, it is no longer the morning

[crisp elk]

4:30 or 5:30 est lol

[agile bolt]

5.41 est

💔

it is what it is...

cmu was lowk my second choice but i guess i just have to get into my first choice now. :)

[crisp elk]

Rip

[proper sparrow]

why isnt cmu available on the rejection simulator

can somoene make one 😭

[echo vault]

Honestly a bit of an L school for not having confetti though...

Gave me a heart attack

[fast dust]

Fax bruh i thought I was cooked

[bitter quail]

its on here

[crisp elk]

Brother

[proper sparrow]

bruh

i did ther 50/50 thing and got rejection

its joever

[compact arrow]

any deferred people get their decisions yet?

[crisp elk]

Nope

Still cooked

[orchid pilot]

bro this is 5/5 on my real decisions

[compact arrow]

maybe they meant it when they said march 31

[crisp elk]

Lmfao

They said by mid march

[orchid pilot]

that's a 3.125% chance, below mit acceptance rate

[shrewd gyro]

☠️I’ll just walk into Warner hall sure

[shrewd gyro]

Uh idk I can check but they r really weird lmao

Honestly it’s prob better to like email them

Or smth

[mild galleon]

wait yes pls ask when deferral kids will find out

🤞🤞

(joke..)

[echo vault]

No worries lol

How's the campus culture like? Are people mostly surrounded by others in their majors?

[crisp elk]

@agile bolt srry to rub salt in ur wound but could you show me ur finaid portal

[shrewd gyro]

Yes but there’s also a lot of making friends with ppl in other colleges

Mostly depends on how hard u try to socialize lol

My dorm is pretty social and I have a good amount of friends in other majors

Ppl are def very friendly and helpful here lol

[dreamy dagger]

CMU admissions office when it comes to being the absolute worst

[crisp elk]

Bro it's completely cooked

I've almost resorted to Astro

[echo vault]

Okok that's good

As much as I love eecs I can't just talk about that 24/7 lol

What's dorm culture like in general?

[stone nimbus]

Trying to cope with the rejection. Do you many people that transferred in?

[crisp elk]

Wait weren't you deferred

[glass smelt]

[crisp elk]

[ionic cairn]

[ionic cairn]

[crisp elk]

OMG hii

[civic sluice]

[crisp elk]

Thats when it seemed like people said

[ionic cairn]

[crisp elk]

Theirs came out

[crisp elk]

Damn

[stone nimbus]

[civic sluice]

[dreamy dagger]

[stone nimbus]

Fair, but am I being delusional or did they say to everyone that they were really talented but had less space

[dreamy dagger]

rejection letters should all be the same

[obtuse pivot]

whens the next wave of decisions

[dreamy dagger]

wish we knew

admissions line is down for the weekend so we have no idea

[obtuse pivot]

bruuuuhh

wtf

[dreamy dagger]

cwru just came out which was nice

[wind python]

[wind python]

happy pi minute

[dreamy dagger]

[wind python]

the Florida one won the integration bee which is crazy

the other one just goes for fun

[tawdry hull]

Are some people STILL waiting for decisions???

Damn Cmu…

[echo vault]

Genuinely why do they roll them out like this

It's evil

[tawdry hull]

Idk, I got my decision mid day yesterday

Just send them all at once

[echo vault]

Same

Everyone else does that

[tawdry hull]

Oh did you get in? I just saw your Cmu ece part

I got into tepper

[dreamy dagger]

Yes

[echo vault]

Yeah I got in for engineering

[tawdry hull]

Why they edging you like that 😭

[echo vault]

It's literally evil

[tawdry hull]

Wait does anyone know how hard it is get a double major? I want to double major in comp sci slongside business

[echo vault]

It's not like it's a server issue or whatever

[echo vault]

I was asking in the cmu server the other day, especially with tech majors most people just do a minor since it's pretty brutal

[tawdry hull]

Caltech lagged three hours for me, just for them to reject me 😭😭

[mild galleon]

tmrw now

[steel gulch]

theyre not going to release on sunday my friend

[shrewd gyro]

Pretty good but it depends on ur dorm n the ppl u live with. There’s a bit of spirit at the beginning but then it’s just socializing with ur dorm lol

Last year they did one wave then the second a week lster

[dreamy dagger]

a WEEK

nonononononono

[steel gulch]

last year we were fighting demons

im surprised cmu number 1 fan isnt active rn

[dreamy dagger]

Did they release throughout the week?

Or just at once on the next Friday

[echo vault]

Oh ok that's chill

Do you have time for research if you want to do it? Out of all the schools I applied to I feel like cmu is the one with the largest "working all the time" stigma

[mild galleon]

let me dream ☹️

[mild galleon]

he was like yesterday for a tiny bit

[shrewd gyro]

there is a lot of work but if oyu manage ur time well its mostly fine. There is quite a bit of work tho but ik ppl who do research

[tawdry hull]

Did you find it? I’m not commited yet but it’s one of my top options

[echo vault]

Okok, cool

I do think it's really interesting how CMU is so overrepresented in "being hard" lol

[echo vault]

Dmed

[tawdry hull]

Thanks!

[mild galleon]

so

monday

or next friday

[dreamy dagger]

dude is the CMU ED Defer waiting experience just like waiting for Silksong release

[vale pulsar]

[compact helm]

[wind python]

[woeful pendant]

@autumn torrent

[dreamy dagger]

CMU AOs when they realize that we paid them like 70 dollars for a decision and they actually have to do their job:

https://tenor.com/view/monkey-confused-gif-15712129875520007531

[tawdry hull]

Oh nvm I got

[proper sparrow]

cmu waitlist

welll looks like defers came out

[mild galleon]

i got an update

waitlisted

[dreamy dagger]

Waitlist

[cobalt kernel]

Waitlisted

[dreamy dagger]

How many ppl got priority waitlist

[proper sparrow]

is priority waitlist even real

[dreamy dagger]

It says it in my portal

Did you get it too?

[proper sparrow]

no??

show

[green vigil]

bonjour

what is priority waitlist for CMU

[shy tinsel]

waitlist

what is priority waitlist

does it say that in the letter

[proper sparrow]

it doesn’t say in mine

[shy tinsel]

oh it says priority waitlist after you submit the waitlist form

[hallow bear]

ACCEPTED RAHHHH

[shy tinsel]

i think everyones says that

[shy tinsel]

CONGRATS!!!!!

thats amazing!

[fierce basalt]

I got accepted!!!

[exotic atlas]

ACCEPTED RAHHHH SCS

[crisp elk]

HOLY FUCK I GOT IN

[trail ember]

YOU DID IT

[crisp elk]

TYSM

IT'S BEEN A WILD JOURNEY

[glass smelt]

waitlist

[echo vault]

Yay mid!!!!

[glass smelt]

does how long u take to reply to the waitlist form matter

[echo vault]

You should come join the server

[crisp elk]

send pls

[shadow cairn]

Waitlist

[harsh vale]

I GOT IN

[reef fern]

Wait-list

[echo vault]

So proud of you (you would never lie)

[harsh vale]

SO PROUD OF YOU TOO

ACTUALLY NOT A LIE

ive been rooting for you this cycle

[jolly cape]

bruh

[jolly cape]

i also got waitlisted for is 😔

[reef fern]

I gave up

Impossible to get off the wl

[jolly cape]

did you say anything @reef fern

for this

[reef fern]

I probably will fill some regular things

Like academic performance or so

Won't spend too much efforts on it

[dreamy dagger]

Did you get priority?

[jolly cape]

no

just regular

😔

[whole cloud]

can they pls make wl's significant

like make it like caltech or smt so theres actually a chance for wl's

we’re writing 300 words for this wl shit pls dont waste out time

[dreamy dagger]

i wonder what the percent of those were priority

in the past its looked like it meant something

but now not really

not matter the situation, treat it like a rejection, and treat getting an admission like a pleasant surprise

keep moving on yall we got other stuff now

i can promise yall your school won't define your success

[jolly cape]

yea

im prepared to commit to my state school

[dreamy dagger]

yippee!

which one?

[jolly cape]

what makes me kinda sad is this tho

even though its true

[jolly cape]

the rut

[jaunty cobalt]

Whats the differenxe

[jolly cape]

idk

[jaunty cobalt]

I thought every one got priority

[paper anchor]

they removed it

[lavish lichen]

lowkey might not accept the wl spot bc what 😭

[steel gulch]

priority isnt a thing

[dreamy dagger]

...?

[glass smelt]

should i even accept a waitlist spot or just go to uva

[dreamy dagger]

both

[dreamy dagger]

explain my portal then lmao

[steel gulch]

they used to have two different waitlists you could choose to be on, one that was binding and one that wasnt. they only have one now. there is no priority waitlist

[dreamy dagger]

priority isn't binding

[steel gulch]

it used to be

now its just the normal waitlist

[steel gulch]

dude i was waitlisted last year i know what im talking about

[glass smelt]

it says priority for everyone i think

[steel gulch]

it does

[glass smelt]

so it doesnt rly mean anything

[steel gulch]

no, cmu just likes to be different

[dreamy dagger]

this screenshot here is not priority and is different than the priority prompt

[steel gulch]

what does the priority prompt look like then

[inland anvil]

im not on priority

[dreamy dagger]

its most definitely a thing

[glass smelt]

what does it say in ur portal?

[dreamy dagger]

both priority and non priority are very likely just as cooked, but priority does mean something

[inland anvil]

same thing just the word priority isnt her

there

[dreamy dagger]

enroll to whatever school you want but accept CMU's waitlist spot. just chill, treat it like a rejection. if you get the decision back, great! otherwise that's fine too.

accepting the waitlist spot puts you at no detriment

stay strong yall!

[inland anvil]

cmu waitlist is crazy

[bitter quail]

if i accept the waitlist spot and will they send a rejection letter at some point if i cant get off the waitlist

[steel gulch]

this isnt the prompt

this is what you get after submitting

[dreamy dagger]

oh sorry

[steel gulch]

the thing you said was different is where you submit your continued interest

[dreamy dagger]

i can't get back the one before

[steel gulch]

how was it different

[dreamy dagger]

it just had priority in it

[steel gulch]

they'll email you

[dreamy dagger]

instead of just waitlist

i'll call the admissions line on monday to ask

[dreamy dagger]

just so we can all get info

this is kinda confusing ngl

[mild galleon]

here

the waitlist letter itself is different

don’t know what that means in itself

[compact helm]

defer into waitlist is lwk crazy

💀💀💀

edgemaxing bruh

[steel gulch]

this is so odd

everyone's just said priority waitlist last year lmao

[mild galleon]

yeah it’s rlly werid

[dreamy dagger]

idek man

[lavish lichen]

chat is it silly to reject my spot on the waitlist since I got into hmc
-# asking without providing reasons just to see what the vibe is

[dreamy dagger]

if you choose HMC over CMU then sure

[crisp elk]

hmc is a goated school

[dreamy dagger]

but you can go to HMC and leave CMU waitlist up for options

[lavish lichen]

I'm not committed but I don't see any huge standout reasons to accept that tiny chance of getting into cmu over hmc

[crisp elk]

that's a fair decision lmao

[dreamy dagger]

thats not how waitlists work

[crisp elk]

wait what

[paper anchor]

if everyones says priority waitlist then its the same as normal waitlist

[lavish lichen]

wait what x2

[paper anchor]

also they removed priority waitlist for everyone

[compact helm]

theres no doenside to not accepting

[lavish lichen]

last year over 10k were on the waitlist and only 32 got off of it, those are dookie odds 💔

[dreamy dagger]

basically waitlists assume you accept an offer from another school. if you hear back from the waitlist, you can unenroll and then take the waitlist offer over the school you committed to

[compact helm]

its like folding when everyone else has checked

[dreamy dagger]

the only downside is you lose the enrollment deposit

[lavish lichen]

yeah I know how the waitlist works

I also have my deposit waived at hmc at least

[crisp elk]

idt there's any harm

with accepting a waitlist position

[dreamy dagger]

no harm in accepting, harm in denying

[crisp elk]

but then again if ur too lazy to write 300 words I also understand

hehe

[lavish lichen]

ur so real

[dreamy dagger]

i didn't write that many

[paper anchor]

theres no downside to accepting a waitlist at any school tbf

[dreamy dagger]

i just said my name and that CMU has been my top choice and that my work at NHSGA represents and shows my commitment and that I look forward to future communications and updates

maybe 50 words to 100?

[crisp elk]

I think the shitty math joke I did for

MIT

was what caused me to be rejected

[lavish lichen]

LMAOOO

[crisp elk]

should I show it

😭

[lavish lichen]

yes please

[crisp elk]

ok I'm leaving

😭

[lavish lichen]

maybe it'll get me off the cmu waitlist 💜

[lavish lichen]

HELP

no u ate that

[crisp elk]

eh

[lavish lichen]

I honestly disagree 💔 at least in my situation

[crisp elk]

yeah

you know how much effort it'd be

to write 300 words /s

[dreamy dagger]

i mean you can do whatever you want

[crisp elk]

ok I'm reusing that joke too much

[lavish lichen]

PLEASE 😭 spare me

[dreamy dagger]

1 less spot on waitlist /j

[lavish lichen]

it's more so the anxiety of waiting that I'd hate

[dreamy dagger]

thats why you treat it like a rejection

[crisp elk]

just forget about it

[dreamy dagger]

what im doing at least

[crisp elk]

I didn't even know purdue came out

it was a happy little accident

[lavish lichen]

me with washu and hmc honestly 💜 god I'm so out of it these days

[lavish lichen]

with 32/10000 getting off the waitlist ... it basically is

[crisp elk]

honestly do what ur gut says

you already got into a goated school

[lavish lichen]

the gag is i have to discuss such a choice with my father

[crisp elk]

this choice probably won't matter in the long run
