youll find out that the margin of difference between most universities are pretty small

it's just

a lot smaller than the individual differences between students at a school

damn i applied to over 10 t20s and didnt get into a single one

so did i, sometimes that is life

mental elk

michigan

#

there are 20k valedictorians from the states every year

the ivies combined take less than that

there are just far too many more talented students

than there are spots on campus

if you got into harvard, great you are an incredible student with incredible achievements

dawn basin

#

can’t tell if i got waitlisted cuz everybody got waitlisted or cuz they actually think my application was good 😭😭

latent flower
#

that doesnt imply that if you dont get into harvard, you dont have incredible achievements

spiral crescent
#

you could always try and negotiate but umich is not usually good at matching other aid offers

#

bro isnt this servers sample size already the better half of applicants? and still sub 10 acceptance rate

latent flower
#

in most other industries, yes too

mental elk

wispy jay
#

like literally statistically for the most part yes

mental peak
dusk sluice
#

does waitlist prioritize in state or is it equal for oos chances

latent flower
#

think about it this way

#

the schools select people that they think will be successful in the future

#

these students then go on to be successful

spiral crescent
latent flower
#

now from an outsiders perspective

spiral crescent
#

and take more of their class through EA

dawn basin
latent flower
#

they see that graduates from a specific university all go do incredible things

thorn bridge
latent flower
#

and think that its the school thats the common denominator

thorn bridge
#

i had ivy league friends who got deferred

mental peak
latent flower
#

no, its the fact that these students are all talented and would succeed without the school

latent flower
mental elk
spiral crescent
#

or maybe they just had more people commit early so they didn't accept as many people

what youre bsically saying over here is that you want to take a risk of 120k in loans

Anyone know the RD acceptance rate?

latent flower

to see if you can land a substantially better offer post grad

to justify that cost

It’s actually like a 5% rd acceptence rate

Last year waitlist was 5.18% but usually it’s been lower then 1%

Sigh

whats their class size

#

they had 115k apps this year

The kinda job ryans tryna get 💀

i made 35k from my last internship

wait so only 1% of students get those kinds of opportunities though? or did i misunderstand

for amazon / other tech companies a sizeable amount do

oh yeah for sure, but for like a 20-30k 12 week internship, because I figured if i was able to get one for even 2 years that'd be a significant amount of money I could use to put toward the last year

but i only started 2 years ago

i dont think that the outcomes will differ that much between the two schools except at the tippy top

however i also dont think 30k is a large enough difference that reaches "pick the cheaper school" category

how many peo0ple do they waitliost?

michigan does offer an engineering scholarship that they said they'd give out by mid april but i dont think i got it

alright so about 15-20%

so if about 15k people got accepted last year this year the rates gotta be 13%

if I do get off wl I'll try my best to convince my parents that the 25k price difference with uiuc is worth for matsci

if u were talkign abt wl --> acceptnace

And that's for OOS

It was the letter.

#

Colleges with fixed tuition are rare usually

#

UIUC and Purdue are good examples of this

dawn basin
#

so for my year I'd be paying over 90k, that'd make the difference between umd and umich about $40k

at that point idk if michigan would be worth it

You can't really predict what happens in the future

Anything can happen to you

latent flower
ripe temple
#

You might go through a crisis

latent flower
#

but yeah

#

its still a risk that he will have to weigh

ripe temple
latent flower
#

if its like 320k then you know, thats an insane gamble

dawn basin
#

I definitely see what you're saying, it's a very hard decision

ripe temple
dawn basin
ripe temple
#

And just far more affordable

#

ROI wise, UMD is sorta a no brainer

dawn basin
ripe temple
#

ROI factors in the debt you get from college and other factors

#

Most great CS colleges are going to have similar cs salary ranges, no matter where. There will, of course, be outliers, but expect to see your peers in your jobs to go from great CS colleges all over

#

It's why I say it's a wiser choice to just go to UMD as it's a far more affordable choice and your career will still be quite valued

#

Ultimately it's up to the individual and the decisions they make for their finances, but it is unwise to put yourself in that much debt and gamble into thinking you'd be able to pay it off easily. You can't predict the future. You don't know the decisions that can come

#

So why not just go to a cheaper college that won't put you in as much of a worry?

latent flower
#

yeah for career wise other than the extreme outliers, umd and michigan will be roughly the same

#

but instead of thinking in terms of ROI, given that youll most likely do fine in the future

slow kayak
#

Alr chat 12 th rejection

latent flower
#

you can frame it in terms of "are you willing to spend the 30k extra to go to a place that youd enjoy more"

#

and tahts up for you to decide

ripe temple
#

This, ultimately if you have the money to spend, then I don't see the issue. Go for it. But it's clear that finances are still an issue to you, and why sometimes you have to make sacrifices

lethal lance
#

is it worth sending them a loci for wl

ripe temple
wraith ember
#

im scared to send one and then they flame me

lethal lance
dawn basin
#

Appreciate the advice from both of you, it seems like because the salaries are similar for both umd and michigan, umd would make sense from a value perspective although I think I would've preferred michigan as a school.

and yeah @ripe temple you are right that finances are still an issue in the sense that it would be worrying to take on additional debt, I think if there was a tangible benefit to doing so I wouldn't have minded so much but given that the outcomes are essentially the same from what I'm gathering it'd be taking on extra debt for no reason

#

I instinctively thought the extra cost/rank for michigan would mean the jobs would make up for it in the end but logically I don't think that's necessarily true

meager moat
#

holy shit i got waitlisted

ripe temple
#

The Michigan alumni has helped me tremendously, moreso that I felt it does better than if I went to some other school

meager moat
#

oh everyone did

#

nvm

latent flower
#

michigan helps me significantly id say

ripe temple
#

And certain jobs, like quant, are only accessible to a few colleges which Michigan is usually a part of

latent flower
#

there are a small number of companies that exclusively hire from certain universities

ripe temple
#

But for most cs jobs, you'll roughly be fine with either

latent flower
#

yeah i think michigan is the only public school that five rings hire from

#

but even then thats for such a tiny minority of people that its almost negligible

#

and those people usually come into college with significant previous experience

#

so its barely even a comparison

i think 5 ppl committed to michigan from my school during my year

i dont really hang out with them and can still find a friend group

its the same golden rule for making friends: be nice and give everyone a chance

#

Are most engineering first year students living on north campus ?

#

Which dorms/residential hall would you recommend?

latent flower
#

so you can be a buysiness major and live on north campus (the classes are on central)

#

for me all my classes were on north but i lived on central

#

this year i heard that theyre allowing people to select their own dorms

#

certainly not that if youre in engineering you must live on north, i personally LOVED living on central

distant fulcrum
# latent flower

Say if I can to choose Alice or north quad, what are my chances ? Is that based on lottery or first come first serve ?

latent flower
#

my guess on what would happen is that they would give everyone a time slot where they can select dorms

#

and then you can choose from the available rooms

#

this is how it works for returning students right now

#

as for what are your chances, i dont know, this is a new system

distant fulcrum
#

What are the chances for freshmen to get singles ?

latent flower
#

most of the rooms are doubles i think

#

i know a few people with singles at north quad / stockwell / couzens / baits

#

Do you recommend finding your own roommate or getting assigned one ?

latent flower
#

for both theres a chance that your roommate is great or horrible

#

but if you know who your roommate is beforehand youll likely be somewhat compatible

#

the chance of having a bad roommate is just much lower this way

ME or CE

#

cs upper levels are considered hard to get in however it should be getting better with advanced selection

distant fulcrum
#

What are the average class size for lower and upper engineering classes ?

latent flower
#

here classes are usually split into lecture, lab and discussion

#

you might have several hundreds of people in a course

#

the lecture might have 100 people in it

#

but lab is usually like 20-30 people so it can still feel small

#

also in engineering a lot of courses have lecture recordings so people dont even go to lecture lol

you’re not allowed to double major in ce and cs

#

ee and cs depends on the courses you take

#

but it would be a decent bit of extra credits

peak vessel
#

this is what i'm considering

latent flower
#

here’s my personal take on double majoring

latent flower
peak vessel
latent flower
#

what type of hardware

peak vessel
#

and i wanna start something in the future that allows me to combine both

latent flower
#

like comp arch?

#

embedded?

peak vessel
#

i'm thinking comp arch or PICs

latent flower
#

gotcha

#

i’ll recommend you to just do ce then

#

since that should cover both of the fields you’re interested in

#

my take for double majoring in ee / cs is that

#

a college major is usually designed to be broad, and take you through different sub fields

#

for example for cs you have to do some theory courses as well as systems

#

for ee there’s computer architecture, but you also have to learn about signal processing, power, magnetism etc

peak vessel
#

oh ok, appreciate it
although i've heard that ce is too shallow of a major

latent flower
#

you only have this much time at school

#

so why bother spending the extra time going through irrelevant parts of a degree that you’re not interested in?

latent flower
peak vessel
#

yeah that's true, i see the vision

#

thanks sm for your time

latent flower
peak vessel
latent flower
#

you can alternatively do cs + ee minor, ee + cs minor too as an example

#

or even just taking ee classes outside of your degree

#

a big trap people fall into is thinking that all the courses they take should be part of a degree they get

#

so they’d want to take 3 extra classes, then notice they’re one class away from a minor, then 2 from another

#

and all they end up with is a bunch of pointless classes they’re not interested in

#

you can always just take classes for the sake of it

Is anyone doing dual degrees between engineering and Ross

haughty bison
#

NOOOOO

haughty bison
#

i would need an extra 50 iq to do that

latent flower
uncut narwhal
latent flower
#

to complete one is very hard

#

since you have to do ross distribution requirements, ross courses, engineering core courses, and your engineering major course

#

sometimes double majors can be easier since there’s a lot of overlap between majors, this is not really the case for engineering and ross

#

you’re probably looking at 5-7 years for courses alone depending on what major combo

latent flower
#

i think instead of going for breadth you’re better off choosing one thing to specialize

uncut narwhal
#

Hmm okay

#

5-7 years? Wow

latent flower

it depends on your incoming credit too

Did Ross preferred admission come out yet

ebon wind
# tacit nimbus Did Ross preferred admission come out yet

“Starting with the application period for fall 2025, U-M’s Common Application will include the Ross School as a first-year admitting unit, while continuing to allow preferred admissions through select schools and colleges as a way for applicants to indicate an interest in later transferring to the program.”

You will still be able to transfer in it seems, it is just now you don’t have to also apply to LSA if you would only go to Michigan for Ross.

This is better for students as it separates their application into business admissions more

tacit nimbus
#

I applied in November so I was just wondering when the decisions are released

#

They say on the site that for early action they roll out in early February but when I emailed them they said they will continue to roll them out through April. The website says RD Ross preferred admission is sent out by early mid April

#

Do you think I should email them again or just wait till next week
