i literally just opened that tab lmao
and i couldnt find anythign official about it
hooraweaw
yeah for ea
did you apply rd?
ive gotten a few about my program from them
rd
oh ok
good luck to you 🫡
@mint marsh I also got the journal and stickers
Idk why they sent it in two separate packages lol
acceptance rate for CS + X majors for 2024 divided by EA/RD if anybody wants to know
HELP real
bro i aint even realiz
until my brother took apart my package
do you have enginnering 😭
Someone tell me why instate CS has a higher AR than instate Math CS
im assuming people who apply pure CS are usually pretty competitive on their own to do pure (also instate) but those who are still competitive, tend to be able to think they can prove their math skills through SAT, AIMC, etc so they use it as a second/first more often
Can’t be second
then i have absoutely no clue 😭
could still be that but who knows rlly, it depends on the personal goals of the applicant
sadly not
anyone know the time it’s gonna come out RD
4 cst Feb 28
xcs
Has anyone received their financial aid notification
I got into Gies is it good
#7 in public and #17 overall idk
!biggreen
fr
is there anybody in here who's a current student that's a business major (or has friends in the business school) that my friend who's considering uiuc business can talk to?
7 days…
it was to talk an someone abt my application, i got an answer a few days ago but he said he’s not sure so he’ll tell an AO to double check & contact me

Darn
Did anyone apply to UIUC without specifying the 2nd choice for major?
and you got in? good job
possibly

6 days yoo
@karmic onyx
yurrrr
ur alive
how r u holding up
i’m chillin
hopefully
it's okay
join the ed reject gang
your next step
find a new school to obsess over
one that you already got accepted into
And then join the ed reject school hater gang
That's what I do
northeastern still the best school in the country
no school can ever top it
i’ll transfer in when the time comes
so much more fun
I hate duke so much I even chose gt over unc because unc is too close to duke
well also cause gt is just better
I love gt ❤️
😭💀
aight bet
u r so confusing and so interesting at the same time
a lot of people tell me that
i might even join you
LOL
if i get a good decesion on the 6th
GT ON TOP
what's on the 6th?
cheaper
sorry 7th
i got into ig
rd decesion date?
uga
oh wait is that when rd gt comes out
but mid aid
Oh nice
gt's kinda expensive oos but not terrible
zamn
and ppl worse than me got in at my school
Yeah 54k that's actually significantly cheaper than privates
lol I like gt even more now
it feels like admissions was flipping a lot of coins for decisions this year
Cheap (compared to privates)
😭😭
Great school
NO LITERALLY
do u have aid Ellie
no I'm full pay
i got into places i did not expect to get into
- oos
which schools?
i know being shocked i got into uva
So my only limiting factor is what school I can get into x_x
uva > neu
Uva is such a great school
Noooo gotta join the hater gang
no
i love neu❤️❤️
@novel trout hi
I didn't even filter these by username lol
hello lol
@karmic onyx
U were so obsessed with neu
I didn't realize u applied somewhere else
Aren't u in state for FL?
Go to UF
yeah
Uf is a great school
i got deferred
you'll get in rd trust
Wish I could go UF
everyone said that to me about neu
But alas
🤔🤔
I didn't apply uf at all
It costs too much
I was going to but then I got lazy x_x
what I did with gt lol
GT ON TOP
neu on top
I gotta get in first
Nah you will trust
Not looking liekly
Not as impressive as u think
Idk how impressive it is
How impressive is it
15% acceptance rate
?
Hmm
vs like 33% gt in state acceptance rate
I'll take it
Yeah Gtech for the win
Lots of my friends r going
- have friends there alr
I'm kinda nervous for my next decision in a week
udub
But cause I'm in state
I should get in??
I mean I got in all these random oos unis
Seattle
So it would be really embarrassing getting rejected in state udub x_x
Aren't they good at compsci
But Gtech is better
Exactly
What major r u
Plus I don't wanna live so close to home 😭
Something related to design, depending on school
ex. computational media gt
informatics udub
I see
Why choose GT then
Does gt do it good
I've been to tech ngl
I'm gaslighting myself into loving a school that I've already been accepted into
And out of all the schools I've been accepted to gt is the best for my major + I have friends who go there
The only reason I haven't gotten a yale interview is cause I'm auto accept
yes
That's why gt is the best
And they're also the school I was most surprised about getting accepted into
Sooooo
Gaslight all u need girl
Bro how many schools did u ea
Insane
Uh
Let's see
Duke ED - rejected
And then
purdue
uiuc
northeastern
gt
unc
And also ut austin but technically I applied rd but it released so early
so it feels like ea
To reject from ED is cruel
Like they were so confident
Oh also umich but I got deferred
U were worse than everyone else they'd get RD
but umich defers everyone oos so idrc
don't put it that way 😭
Yeah exactly
Literally all the schools I got accepted into ea
Minus purdue and uiuc
have a lower acceptance rate than duke
For oos
And they all wanted me
sooooooo
Duke is just bad
They dum as fuck
I hope that place is hell
REA:
this means im auto rej
💔
fml
fr
wdym gone 😭
when you got two interviews smh
IDC THAT THE FIRST ONE WAS BAD
I'LL TAKE IT
I'M DESPERATE
Oh 😭
ouch I'm sorry
I thought you meant something else but accidentally insinuated that he was dead 😭
did you guys lose touch?
yale is the only school that has shown love for me
His parents not telling
I don't think they wanna know
If the starter pack or whatever is good
Ouch
Yeah I can understand
That sucks
I'm sorry
U got in UNC
That's so hard
As an oos
through global launch though x_x
blue devils HOT
I JUST WANT MY UNC STARTER KIT OR WHATEVER THEY CALLED IT
they're blue aka they're cold
Bro
MJ went there
They have the best college women's soccer teams
The sports is insane
And one of my friends is going there
okay see the real question is why are they sending the starter kit separately from the acceptance letter
Nah I'm going to gt
I just want the unc merch LOL
cause I'm collecting them like pokemon cards LOL
The UF admission package sucked
Imo
The UGA one was worse tho
Cuz my house is filled with UGA merch
I got a whole ass pretzel the other day lol
I felt nothing when opening it
Was it
bro are they still open app wise
I don't remember what school it was
i wanna free pretzel
Ok
I know nothing about them
Will apply rn
Except they sent me a fee waiver
R there essays due
And then I said "aight bet"
ARE THEY still open??
Where TF r they from
wisco
I have 0 idea
ew
middle of nowhere
Like I said I know quite literally nothinga bout them
real
why didn't I get a shirt 😭
i wish i brought xxl bc im short asf so it would be a whole ass dress or smth
but i got s
us ischool kids only got that name tag thing
honestly yeah that would've been nice
Literally me with neu
😭
LOL that's why I applied there too
no supps + app fee
I wish I knew Abt this school
UIUC sounds sick
Honestly for state schools outside of GA and FL
I just googled "app fee" in my email and spam applied to all that had no fee and no supps x_x
Other than Bama I know nothing abt
BRO THATS ME
me w every school bc fee waiver everywhere gang
I applied to a billion state schools
only reason why I applied to the damn university of San fran
LOL
x_x
So the dub is real
I applied to a billion schools
But they have a 83% acceptance rate so
Also WashU gave me a fee waiver
Only reason I applied there
no I cannot name a single thing about any of these unis
Had no idea it was a good school till months after
LOL
honestly I'd choose gt over washu
i need EAST COASTT
I thought st. Louis had nothing going for it
I don't think I'd get accepted to washu anyways
it doesnt!
yeah exactly lol
its v nice tho
So there's no way it had a good school
bc i went to the fly in and its hot
washu dorms hit hard though
well they spoiled us
YESS they have the best mattresses omg
except um during the fly in on the gender inclusive floor they didnt have tempur pedic
💀
usc and washu have these villages
tempur pedic?
what's that 😭
I didn't get any WashU scholarships tho
the soft mattresses LOLL
So it'll cost me an arm and a leg to go if I get in
I didn't apply to the scholarships cause I was so burnt out x_x
real
ooh lol
That's fine tho ur full pay
Plus they barely accept anyone for the scholarships and I don't think I'll get in cause it's a fine arts major lol
And my portfolio is not it
And I'd choose gt over washu
sooooo
doesn't matter lol
Honestly some schools feel like a fever dream
Big city
Btw for GT
Yale hates my school
aren't you in state for gt 😭
okay fair lol I'm the same way with udub
My school is a feeder for GT
So I was like I'll apply
like didnt realize this shi was harvard
ME W UIUC FR
Kinda look like an idiot
like dawg u wanna move to chambana?!?!?
ok well i dogged on the state school after i got in 😊 so i didnt embarass myself LMAO
REAL
BRO GET ME OUT OF THE MIDWEST!!!
im meant to be an east coaster
Anna ur Illinois?
yes
Did u do UChicago?
I'm not gonna withdraw udub cause my parents don't want me to and just in case something goes drastically wrong and I get disowned or something and I need a cheap school
noo
But I'm probably not gonna go
1% RD OR SMTH
Or Northwestern?
I didn't think that was a real school
Northwestern isn't even in the northwest
HAHA
Apparently cuz the location was in the northwestern territory
Like back all the way back
I mean back then
After the Louisiana purchase
i mean
it should be named midwest uni lol
are they gonna change the name now
okay midwest uni sounds terrible
Nooo
its a nationally recognized brand
650 word essay ahh
should've applied 😭
that's how i feel about johns hopkins
Then we could be cornell '29 together
i don't even wanna go
why did i pay the money go apply
NO LITERALLY WHAT'S WITH THE S BEHIND JOHNS
IT'S SO STUPID
hello
Did I send that?
Sorry
HELP
If u get in will u go there
Ee
yale cornell northwestern umich are the only ones I'll consider going to over gt
Don't go vandy
Yeah not my top choice lol
Not gonna say it w me huh
VANDY SUCKS
There we go
What Abt emory
pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Nah doesn't have my major
It's in Atlanta
So no
Okay my review of all the schools:
- Yale YES PLEASE I LOVE YOU
- Cornell okay you're in the middle of nowhere BUT I STILL LOVE YOU
- Rice Ehhhhh not really good for my major but I like the vibe but it's too small for my taste and cause I switched from ed2 -> rd that's basically an auto reject cause I basically told them "you were my first choice but not anymore"
- Emory they don't have my major
- vandy tennessee and they don't have my major and greek life enough said
- washu ew it's a fine arts major
- nyu y'all don't even have a campus and your major for me sucks 😭
- Northwestern YES ACCEPT ME
- umich PLEASE ACCEPT ME
- udub I mean you're a good school but too close to home but please accept me cause otherwise it'll be embarrassing
I just want yale
nah
lot of harvard hate around here
harvard's boring
yale is superior
Except yale hates my school
But then again so does harvard
yale was part of the scandal
Sooooo
whats wrong w ur school?
so were a billion other schools lol
we have a terrible track record for hypsm
GO ILLINI!!!
hypsm hates us
YES GO ILLINI
well we have a terrible track record too as in no one gets in bc our school is ASSS
or few ppl get in?
the best school we've ever gotten is yale
and that was like 7 yrs ago
we've had like 1-2 non legacy stanford get in but they were crazy stacked like multiple international awards kind of stacked
last year teh best school anybody got into was GT and Vandy
is vandy better than GT
ranking wise?
nah you'll be the first to get into yale from your school trust
idek
i feel lik
is like a no go
absolutely not
rich white southerners go to Vandy
My school counselor literally told me I'm too asian to get into any of the schools I applied to rd LOL
HELP?!?! UM.
um innapropriate
report them
most professional hs counselor
No literally she was like "hmm you applied to some really good schools but those schools only accept underrepresented minorities rd... and you're not a urm..."
Then she pushed me to ed2
my school counselor didn't give a shit about where I appiled
Cause she was like
"Yeah if you don't ed2 it's going to be really hard to get in..."
white lol
She was super nice to me
And then
The second I got rejected duke
the way this is a wildly incorrect statement lmfao
ur too asian
She was like
"Okay so SCAD (the safety I already got into) is a really good school, you should be really happy going there"
she just gave up on me 😭
omg what major are you
Then I said I was gonna apply rice ed2 cause I felt kinda pressured to
And then she got all happy again
u got into freaking GT WTF
And then I withdrew ed2 LOL
who says that
depends on the school, but something related to design like comp. media for gt, info sci for cornell, etc
REAL LMAO
yes very proud of myself for proving her wrong LOL
changing your major based on the school is so real lmfao
She was acting like I wouldn't get accepted into ANY schools and I would be scad '29
what is ur school like
like what is the normal
she was like writing ab my struggles in our v white hs in her lor
for someone like you
I had to write multiple additional informations based on my major 😭
competitive private
that's really sweet
i go to a rural public school
rural georgian public school
yep I have no legacy no donor parents and I'm asian so my counselor was like "aight you're screwed"
yea ik the feeling im a fine arts major lol
thats nice

i didn't apply to any uni I had legacy to
i think i wrote between 100 and 150 essays last year

And we get a great city
just forget teh hawks and falcons
UGA national championships

but uiuc fine arts programs are sick, i would’ve considered going there much more heavily if it wasn’t basically just penn state but in the midwest
ik someone in vancouver

LOL penn state but in the midwest is crazy
I tried to withdraw but they keep emailing me about not submitting my transcripts and I just keep ignoring them lol
yes dual citizenship
LOL
sasctechwan
i can't do it
HELP
he's from that province
above montana
but i can't claim citizenship
its too far of a lineage
i mean penn state is my state school but they have a ton in common lol, they’re big 10 schools that w R1 distinction that are also in the middle of nowhere in a state with very rural areas w the exception of a major city or two
I was born and raised in the us but my parents immigrated to canada first before they moved to the us so I get citizenship
this is my friend
who you kno
passed on
penn state is not in the middle of nowhere x_x
wait
i fear it’s in the dead center of pennsylvania lol
yea
that’s upenn lol
has been shattered
I THOUGHT THEY WERE BOTH IN PHILLY
very common confusion
I THOUGHT PENN STATE WAS AT LEAST NEAR PHILLY
upenn is in philly?
I THOUGHT THEY WERE LIKE OUTSKIRTS OF PHILLY
what?
LOL
i thought upenn was in the woods somewhere
nah state college is in the dead center of the state so it’s like 2.5-3hrs from philly
that’s dartmouth my friend
that's insane
glad I didn't apply then x_x
but on football game days state college (penn state’s college town) becomes the 3rd most populated place in the state
LOL I can imagine
yes, the polar opposite of penn state lol
i’m in the band so i play at a lot of the games
do you like UCLA
i wanted to go there
LOL
but i couldn't afford it
ucla bad ucla ugly
insane question to ask
so i decided not ot apply
also they didn’t have my major so i wouldn’t have applied there anyways lol
I just didn't apply to the ucs cause I'm lazy
i wanted to extend the length of this conversation
never underestimate my laziness
LOL
ayyyeee niche major gang rise up
LOL
i meantioned i thought that all the UCs were not related in any way and the ppl in cali were just so lazy they just called all thier unis University of California and had to add the city cuz they made too many to distinguish
fucla is crazy
that's insane lol
ucs are ass uiuc better
only way you’ll ever get berkeley and usc to agree is w their hatred of ucla
i didn't even know of all of them
only LA and Berkley
the rest could just F off
UCD
that was embarassing
UCSC
