💀

[umbral dirge]

my school had 2 wharton kids

[humble crest]

we had none

but its also oklahoma

we have like

maybe 50 ivy acceptances total

[umbral dirge]

one’s got many hooks and the other’s a legacy with parents who donated for 40 years

[humble crest]

wharton legacy

well i sold that to my kid

[umbral dirge]

transfer in

lightwork

[humble crest]

wharton transfer is impossible

[untold sequoia]

does legacy not matter if i didnt donate

[umbral dirge]

I gotta transfer to an ivy to make college apps for ez for my children

[umbral dirge]

not as much, but it’s a tiebreaker if ur borderline

my gf doesn’t have a gpa

but she’s also a figment of my imagination so idk

in oklahoma?

3 hours is nixe

[gritty palm]

[gritty palm]

[steel bloom]

[humble crest]

and its aura

[umbral dirge]

making final four is aura

[humble crest]

who here got an interview

[umbral dirge]

🙋‍♂️

I miss UVA basketball being good

[humble crest]

ngl

[umbral dirge]

but they never get 5* recruits

[humble crest]

only school i wanted to get into was harvard

and i didnt evne end up applying

didnt know penn existed til beginning of 2024

[neon basalt]

Duke my pookie

[humble crest]

didnt think about eding collumbia

only knew harvard

and mit

lmao

[umbral dirge]

just take mit and leave 🙏

[humble crest]

never heard of northwestern

[humble crest]

leave

[neon basalt]

😦

[humble crest]

or give me ur id and stuff so i can go harvard in ur name

thats a good deal

[neon basalt]

👍

[umbral dirge]

honestly based

[humble crest]

on a real note congrats

wher eu gonna go

[neon basalt]

Ty

I’m not sure

It’s either Harvard or mit rn

[humble crest]

no stanford?

[umbral dirge]

as long as ur the same race tho

[neon basalt]

nah

Stanford broke my streak

[humble crest]

didu apply or wl/r

[neon basalt]

r

[humble crest]

how terrible!!

[neon basalt]

Rd was tough

Unironically I prob would’ve chose Stanford if I got in

[umbral dirge]

idk if you can go to school as tin if like their name is “olajide” and ur a white man

[humble crest]

oh damn

what u tryna go for

[neon basalt]

Cs lol

[humble crest]

oh

makes sense

[neon basalt]

Stanford’s entrepreneurial startup with tech

Was perfect

[humble crest]

but mit harvard and stanford r all basically the same tho

just location

[umbral dirge]

go M&t

[humble crest]

whats m&t

[umbral dirge]

wait tin did you get in m&t

[neon basalt]

I didn’t apply m&t

I got into UPenn tho

[umbral dirge]

that’s like #1 for tech entrepreneurship

[neon basalt]

imo I don’t think the dual programs at Penn r worth it

[humble crest]

@neon basalt whered u get a/wl/r

[umbral dirge]

MET and M&T

[neon basalt]

Penn itself is just an entrepreneurship school

[humble crest]

penn is only worth if u get in wharton

imo

[neon basalt]

Most students will make use of it

[umbral dirge]

penn is overhyped imo

[humble crest]

or huntsman ig

[umbral dirge]

wharton is HARD carrying

without wharton it feels like cornell

[humble crest]

penn without wharton would be a B tier school

[neon basalt]

Accepted mit, 8 ivys, ut cs, Amherst, Williams

Waitlisted rice and jhu

Denied Stanford and cmu cs

[humble crest]

DAMN

[umbral dirge]

Harvard CS is always nice for grade inflation

[neon basalt]

yea that’s why I’m considering harvard

[umbral dirge]

please don’t commit to princeton

grade deflation and midder cs program

MIT if you can keep ur gpa up and don’t mind stressing

[neon basalt]

Students even in cas or seas can access Wharton stuff

[humble crest]

harvard is more aura

[neon basalt]

I won’t

[humble crest]

everyone knows harvard in the world

most popular university ever

then itd be oxford prob

[umbral dirge]

they have insane consulting placement even in cas idk how

[humble crest]

oxford cambridge princeton

mayybe yale

[umbral dirge]

MIT too mate

[neon basalt]

Penn’s name itself is just that

[humble crest]

yeah that too

[umbral dirge]

princeton’s not international like MIT and harvard ngl

Stanford is also a bit lower on name recognition

(for laymen)

[humble crest]

yeah very true

nobody knows stanford

for ivies id go name recognition wise
harvard
princetonm
yale
cornell
columbia
brown
university of pennsylvania
dartmouth

[umbral dirge]

anyway duke duke duke I need u so bad I’m willing to trade in anything and cause bodily harm to be an admit to ur class of ‘29

[umbral dirge]

agreed, maybe swap columbia and cornell

[humble crest]

i feel like i see people wear cornell shirts over columbia

but lowkey duke would go inbetween yale and cornell

[umbral dirge]

columbia is associated with nyc tho

[humble crest]

ngl i think nyu is more famous than columbia

[umbral dirge]

duke merch sells well cuz of basketball team

also ACC sports are just better

NYU is not famous like that

[humble crest]

yeah duke is carried by their bball name

[humble crest]

never heard of columbia til junior year tbh

nyu is famous in media

[umbral dirge]

I’ve been exposed to all of these colleges for a while now

the only one I didn’t know till hs was dartmouth

nyu has no sports tho

[humble crest]

true

[umbral dirge]

I heard of big 10 schools earlier

UCLA and Cal have good name recognition

[humble crest]

ngl i didnt know berkely

[neon basalt]

Does Duke have an admitted students day?

[humble crest]

i knew ucla and usc

[umbral dirge]

typ

[humble crest]

all schoools do pretty sure

[umbral dirge]

yup

[neon basalt]

When is it

[umbral dirge]

Ik someone who went to it last year

[humble crest]

[neon basalt]

Some schools r just like “oh u can tour”

[umbral dirge]

[neon basalt]

Nah

[humble crest]

[umbral dirge]

[neon basalt]

[neon basalt]

I haven’t seen a special day for Duke admitted students

[neon basalt]

Is it one day?

Or like 2-3 days

[umbral dirge]

yeah

90% will be rejected

[steel bloom]

dookie pookie

let me in

[grizzled steppe]

ofc theres a 10% increase in applciations

smh

[humble crest]

bc test optional

since

test required schools

decreased in apps

[grizzled steppe]

mann

[humble crest]

so test optional schools increased

[grizzled steppe]

should be test required everywhere

[humble crest]

if only all schools were test requried

thats why our year was bad

[grizzled steppe]

tell me how someone manages to get a 3.9 gpa but not a good SAT score 😭

[grizzled steppe]

bro ong

pre 2020

[humble crest]

high school grade inflation

[grizzled steppe]

bro fr 💀

and then they say "oh its cuz im a bad test taker"

like hello?

grades in highschool are basically all tests lol

my calc class was 20% quizzes and 80% tests and my physics and chem classes were 5% labs and 95% tests

[humble crest]

fr

apparently some schools had to have remedial classes bc people were so far behind

[umbral dirge]

i hate that excuse

[humble crest]

all my test optional friends at ivy league schools r struggling

[umbral dirge]

tf you learning if you can’t retain information and apply it

[grizzled steppe]

bro exactly

[umbral dirge]

sitting in class like a vegetable does not make you a good student

[grizzled steppe]

like how can u apparenlty score so good on tests at school that you manage a 3.9 gpa

yet not a good SAT score

or ACT

[humble crest]

[elder nacelle]

[regal lark]

[odd hollow]

Please just no reject

I’m getting rejected

But please

[limpid dew]

nah i think you're good

13a is cracked

[odd hollow]

Most were state schools with 30+ acceptance

[limpid dew]

still aura

I JUST NEED ONE

DUKE

noone from my country got a duke admit this year yet

[odd hollow]

Yuh

[regal lark]

yo good news

https://www.dukechronicle.com/article/2025/03/duke-university-regular-decision-results-class-of-2029-record-low-3-67-percent-acceptance-rate-total-4-8-percent

[odd hollow]

wtf

They said it was 4%

[regal lark]

220 defers got in rd

[odd hollow]

Fuck

[regal lark]

thats pretty damn high

[odd hollow]

I didn’t get deferred

So I’m cooked

[regal lark]

you never know

[umbral dirge]

bro

you got that fellowship stuff at cotnell

you did just fine

[limpid dew]

how is a record low "good"

[odd hollow]

^^^

[kindred sparrow]

so they had a record high number of applicants and record low AR

💀

[broken dome]

ggs

[gritty palm]

W

[limpid dew]

its lowkey wraps for me 💔

[gritty palm]

Bruh you didnt even write the optional essay

[limpid dew]

yeah i know

[regal lark]

i’m referring to deferred acceptances

my bad

[umbral dirge]

I mean that’s how it works

[limpid dew]

fair

[umbral dirge]

they don’t change the number of seats in the class

only the number of applicants affected the ar

[regal lark]

and a higher amount of nc people

[limpid dew]

next year the # of applicants are gonna go down

[regal lark]

it’d also test optional so it’s a little artificial

[odd hollow]

They admitted less this year

[limpid dew]

they did

huh

strange

[odd hollow]

like 50 less

In RD

[regal lark]

yeah more ed

probably wanting yield higher

[limpid dew]

more ed admits though

[mortal pulsar]

Pls worse case senario

Is a waitlist

[odd hollow]

Praying for a waitlist

Please Duke please

[quartz bridge]

wow, 22% of deferred kids were accepted

that’s a lot

[odd hollow]

Are you sure

They said 10% before

[quartz bridge]

they deferred 1000 this year

according to a webinar my counselor attended in december

[odd hollow]

Interesting

[weary yacht]

so cooked

[quartz bridge]

they prob looking for higher yield

duke has one of the lowest yields in t10

[dapper willow]

Bro

I had to pay $5 just for fucking Duke

Bc I have a subscription for this bot

[quartz bridge]

but deferred kids are just as qualified and many kids bag a hypsm in the rd round (like me)

[dapper willow]

And it would’ve otherwise ended today for the month

But I kept it for an extra month for yall

[quartz bridge]

which makes it harder for duke to convince those kids to come

[daring trellis]

good luck to everyone today 🙏

[limpid dew]

respect

[dapper willow]

I’ll just beg people to contribute to my A2Coffee fund

[weary yacht]

[limpid dew]

will donate a respectful $10 if i get duke

[dapper willow]

I forget what my server expenses run I think they’re ~$300 a year tho

[limpid dew]

DAMN

[dapper willow]

I buy too much a2shit

[limpid dew]

cmon start cost cutting

[dapper willow]

The website alone is $200

Bc domain is like $50

The super site is $150

[limpid dew]

yeah cuz you pay for a super.so

[dapper willow]

Then we have bots we pay extra for

Then we have emails

[limpid dew]

ngl hostinger solves everything

hosting, email, etc for like $30 a year

i have a shit ton of custom emails that are included in that plan

[dapper willow]

But I’m not technical so super site is nice the issue is it’s been severely breaking these last few days

And I have no clue why

[limpid dew]

have you tried feather.so?

[dapper willow]

Nope

[limpid dew]

try that then

[dapper willow]

Our super site is annual and ends in late August I think

And it’s not breaking to the point where I need to swap before then

The main issue is decision dates aren’t auto updating

Like Ivy day was stuck as saying it was tomorrow when it was that day

[weary yacht]

i remember seeing that

[limpid dew]

hmm

[dapper willow]

Yeah and no one told me!

[weary yacht]

i thought it was my computer just being crap like it always was

[limpid dew]

if it wasnt running off notion then those issues would be nonexistent

[dapper willow]

I’m sure if I had programming skills they would be nonexistent

[limpid dew]

true

hmm

ima try to look for like

an api that connects with notion and updates content to website

cuz usually if i wanna publish stuff via notion i'd just use the publish function

[limpid dew]

it is possible https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79090296/is-it-possible-to-publish-to-web-using-the-notion-api-similar-to-the-notion-a

[regal lark]

yeah there’s lots of templates for that

notion is a good cms

[dapper willow]

I think our main reason was that super was equal cost to just connecting a domain on notion itself and also creates prettier domain links

[limpid dew]

oh right

its $10 a month for domain

[steel bloom]

duke duke duke

[spark vigil]

DIH!!!!!!!

[umbral dirge]

how many non deferred rd admits?

[spark vigil]

i heard not a lot

[umbral dirge]

Definitely not a lot

[spark vigil]

no like

single digits

[umbral dirge]

what

[gritty palm]

Huh?

[spark vigil]

oh wait i read it wrong

i thought you meant historically people that got off the waitlist

for last year

im geeked sorry

[limpid dew]

how much are you paying for emails

[dapper willow]

Whatever Google charges bc we tried self hosting and we kept getting sent to spam

[limpid dew]

oh lol

google is crazy expensive

[dapper willow]

.college TLD moment maybe idk

[gritty palm]

401 admitted into Pratt lol

What a joke

Im not getting in

[limpid dew]

nah its the self hosting

SPF DKIM DMARC keys not set properly

[umbral dirge]

how many to trinity

@gritty palm

[limpid dew]

@dapper willow try this https://www.hostinger.com/business-email

[gritty palm]

Like 1.5k

Versus 400 😆

I guess it’s probably proportional anyways

[limpid dew]

granted the UX isnt like gmail but its close + you can always connect your gmail to your custom domain one for recieving & sending

holy shit google charges $3.50 an email what

[umbral dirge]

Isn’t their yield like 60%

how are they admitted such few students

[gritty palm]

Who knows

3.25% RD acceptance rate

[steel bloom]

thats insane

[limpid dew]

god damn

[umbral dirge]

I’m guessing trinity is lower ar

[cursive ferry]

Which college is this?

[limpid dew]

duke

[wind rain]

Ts pmo icl

[cursive ferry]

Wow - a guess or legit? I thought closer to 5%. But that’s all ridiculously low anyways

[gritty palm]

5% overall but 3% rd

[wind rain]

Duke is lower than many ivies

[limpid dew]

DUKE

DUKE

DUUUUUUUUUUKKKKEEEEEE

GO DEVILSSSSSSS

[old spindle]

hiiiii! <3

[gritty palm]

401 spots admitted to Pratt from ~80 countries

320 left after deferred acceptances

Let’s say 75% of that goes to United States so 240 left

240/50 is average of 5 people per state

2000 valedictorians in Florida

.25% chance of acceptance

[umbral dirge]

3% justifies my hopelessness

[limpid dew]

"80 countries" THERE IS A CHANCE OMG

[umbral dirge]

5 per state is bs

very unequally distributed

[old spindle]

guys two of their supps are optional dw guys there’s probably people who applied and didn’t do the optional ones

[limpid dew]

i'm one of them

[old spindle]

wait what 5 per state

[umbral dirge]

fr

O hope 2 essays + interview boosts chances like yale

[old spindle]

california probably has like 80 and south dakota probably has 1

[limpid dew]

did you get into yale

[inland gust]

did duke accept portfolios and those optional video thingies

i’m just curious because a lot of schools did 😭

and people said they were “optional” but not really 😭😭

[old spindle]

they have a glimpse video

but not very many people do them

and lots of people are accepted without one too

they literally bury the information about glimpse so low down bro

[inland gust]

i think it’s super expensive too

[old spindle]

it’s def not like brown/uchi though

[inland gust]

especially if you apply to a lot of schools

[old spindle]

iirc glimpse makes you do it in one take like no editing

i got wl at vandy without doing it sooooo

[gritty palm]

I got wl brown with no video 😆

If I made it I’d probably have gotten in

[gritty palm]

Same

And I got in washu no video

[old spindle]

i had a video and i got wl 😭

yeah the video isn’t like make or break

[gritty palm]

💀

[steel bloom]

i had a video and i got flat rejected lol

[old spindle]

well uchi and brown the videos are important ish but

[inland gust]

i’m stupid because i applied to uchicago but never did the supplements 💀

[old spindle]

did you get in 😭

[inland gust]

rip $90

NO LMAO 😭

[steel bloom]

like you didn’t do the writing??

[old spindle]

LMAOOOOOO

[inland gust]

how cracked do you have to be to get in without the essay 💀

[inland gust]

yes

[old spindle]

why is uchi a whole separate application

[limpid dew]

ok what

how rich are you

[old spindle]

duke making 2 of their essays optional is so interesting to me

[steel bloom]

boy why did u apply

[old spindle]

i guess it helps increase applicant numbers

[inland gust]

no it wasn’t because i’m rich 😭😭 my mom had a stroke on the day it was due and i just kinda lost motivation after that

[old spindle]

:(

[inland gust]

which is on me regardless because i was planning on doing it the day it was due 💀

[old spindle]

is she ok now

[inland gust]

YEA she’s much better
