[haughty birch]

many of the mid tier LACs do

i've seen

[hybrid schooner]

yield projection (cuz cope)

[haughty birch]

HOW DID I GET INTO AN IVY BUT WL BU

[haughty birch]

[whole cradle]

[haughty birch]

[whole cradle]

and MIT's

[last shadow]

[haughty birch]

that i cant be here

on there

[whole cradle]

i understand

i know

[stuck zinc]

yale '29 or like everyone

[haughty birch]

the 29

mc

[stuck zinc]

i shouldve applied to an ivy or two

[haughty birch]

lol

[stuck zinc]

i didnt apply to any

[haughty birch]

yes

i always encourage

ppl to just apply

im not MAD abt bu

[stuck zinc]

the best schols i applied to were washu and emory

[haughty birch]

i hope everyone knows that im not trying to be a bitch or dick

[zenith marlin]

got into amherst williams and jhu yesterday as well but somehow BU dont want me

[stuck zinc]

got rejected from washu

hopefulyl i can get emory

[haughty birch]

i wanted to withdraw BU but they wouldnt let me

[whole cradle]

shit is so confusing

[haughty birch]

so i just didnt submit docs

[haughty birch]

wait omg thats so good??

im so happy for u

but also fk BU

😛

[marsh ruin]

is it just in ur decision letter if u get it

[austere cliff]

my waitlist rejection streak is so ass rn

[zenith marlin]

my school did take like 7 people ed so that may be part of the reason?? im lowk coping rn

[cursive dune]

I got rejected too

[haughty birch]

i know a lot of ppl with 8+ waitlists

😭

[whole cradle]

how did bu yield protect me but tufts didnt

[cursive dune]

😭

[whole cradle]

yk why i got waitlisted

[haughty birch]

i think its just a variety of factors if they think you showed real interest in their school

[whole cradle]

because bu's yield is shit from my school

[haughty birch]

i think a waitlist oftentimes is a way of being like "hey we dont feel like you actually want to go here that bad"

[whole cradle]

im just coping 😭

[haughty birch]

😭

[whole cradle]

yeah probably

im just mad because like

i wanted to go there

lol

[haughty birch]

thats valid

i lowkey was just ok with my state school

so anything was good

[whole cradle]

well im not gonna take a spot on the waitlist

[molten pier]

Do internationals get it later

[haughty birch]

me neither

[whole cradle]

Lol

[haughty birch]

decline it together 😛

[whole cradle]

yass

i wasnt acc gonna go there

[austere cliff]

whats the point

[molten pier]

Do internationals get it later?

[whole cradle]

even if i didnt have yale i wouldve gone mich

[haughty birch]

thats like me with caltech (even tho caltech is obv much more competitive)

i was like am i not nerd enough for you

[molten pier]

Do internationals get it later?

[whole cradle]

LMFAO

[haughty birch]

tbh im glad to not be that big of a nerd

[ruby cairn]

bro did a lot of ppl get rejected

[molten pier]

Do internationals get it later?

[whole cradle]

i dont think so

[ruby cairn]

no

[whole cradle]

what mods r online

[austere cliff]

[whole cradle]

https://applicant.bu.edu/myBU/s/decision

but i clicked that one

and it worked

[mystic phoenix]

wait apparently only 150 people get guaranteed transfer???

[haughty birch]

[whole cradle]

[hushed bone]

not safeties, but targets/reaches

[haughty birch]

[hushed bone]

Only 1 rejection and that's from jhu ed1

[haughty birch]

i mean... makes maybe sense?

[tropic depot]

[haughty birch]

https://applicant.bu.edu/myBU/s/decision

[jovial gust]

the food is alright tho

[jovial gust]

LMFAO REAL

waitlist warriors unite

[onyx patrol]

when does BU usually start accepting ppl from the waitlist??

[jovial gust]

they know we’re not gonna attend

[zenith marlin]

gl with that, i heard they accept very few from the waitlist. alweays worth a shot tho! fingers crossed for u

probaby after may 1

[austere cliff]

[onyx patrol]

alr thnaks 😭 , i still have NYU left but ive been getting waitlisted for majority of my reaches

[jovial gust]

[muted canopy]

Uukay, that's fair-

[prime shuttle]

Max level cope

[compact totem]

i checked my fafsa again, and my SAI is 32k usd yes

but they expect me to pay 74? 💀

[prime shuttle]

GGS

[vast umbra]

[compact totem]

don't they use the SAI? 💀

[last shadow]

r u an international

[vast umbra]

FRICK BU

[compact totem]

no I'm US citizen

[prime shuttle]

BU is like 40k at best

[compact totem]

i don't live in the US tho

[last shadow]

but might they think ur an international

[last shadow]

yeah

maybe thats why

[prime shuttle]

If you don’t live in the us how do you have fafsa?

[compact totem]

i mean when I applied it clearly said any us citizens

[jovial gust]

if your SAI is that high you’re like

not getting any aid

how much is your AGI

[compact totem]

what's AGI

[jovial gust]

if it’s anywhere above 150k

income

you’re gonna hardly be getting aid unless it’s at an ivy

[compact totem]

no

90k around

[prime shuttle]

Williams gave me 70k+ in grants 🤷‍♂️ there’s a chance Bu was just cheap

[compact totem]

I'll write a mail to them (how do I tell this to my parents tho? 💀)

[last shadow]

damn

[jovial gust]

williams is very generous w aid

the lacs are

[prime shuttle]

My SAI was 20k

[jovial gust]

i prob have to go to a lac if i want to even afford this

[fossil pawn]

Yeah yeah

[jovial gust]

or hope for ivy day miracl

[fossil pawn]

It says like "congrats on getting in, also here's 35k a year"

[jovial gust]

i think i will hope for an ivy day miracle

[fossil pawn]

NYU plssss take me

[marsh ruin]

💀

i didnt get anything

[compact totem]

same no scholarships

[prime shuttle]

Those who can’t afford it/didn’t get in. BU is literally one street anyway 🤧

[fossil pawn]

I've gotten into 5/5 of the other top 10 most competitive undergraduate business schools I applied to (NEU, UVA, UNC, USC, BU) and still waiting on the last three (Penn, UMich, NYU)

[jovial gust]

no it is like

it is LITERALLY a road

[last shadow]

[vast umbra]

Isn’t it guaranteed

[chrome sage]

[gritty sandal]

[chrome sage]

like what percent of applicants of this BU pool got like that notification instead

[vast umbra]

Me too my supplement was lwk goated 💔💔💔

[chrome sage]

bc i didnt get rejected but they gave me guaranteed transfer admission

[gritty sandal]

[vast umbra]

LMFAO NVM CONGRATS ON TUFTS 🗣️

[chrome sage]

LMFAO THANK U

if anyone has any info on guaranteed transfer admission thingy pls lmk

just a lil curious 💪🏼

[gritty sandal]

i wanted to go party and celebrate my acceptance to boston

now i want to go party because i got rejected from boston

[vast umbra]

this one hurt sm cu now Im just thinking my chances at all the colleges coming out are basically 0

this one was the least competitive for me out of all 💔

[muted canopy]

Usually, I like planning to go out and treating myself no matter what the decision will be. That way, it can either be a celebration/cope party.

[muted canopy]

Hey, you never necessarily know what'll happen with other colleges! At some point, with schools around 10% or less acceptance rates, I feel like it becomes difficult to tell what'll happen.

[gritty sandal]

this is all what is left

im so cooked

there should be a fucking miracle

[haughty birch]

wo

wow

[gritty sandal]

everything else so far rejected

bu included

[haughty birch]

safeties?

[gritty sandal]

[haughty birch]

ohh : (

[gritty sandal]

but i cant afford it

and i dont think its worth it

[haughty birch]

with the state of the US

unless ur getting a good deal

yeah idk

[vast umbra]

I only got Harvard, Stanford, NYU, Cornell, GTech left 💔

[haughty birch]

you never know tho

it only takes one ivy

[gritty sandal]

but it doesnt matter at all

as they say

[haughty birch]

i will say

they dont typically matter a huge bit

my decision was released one day after my interview lol

my interviewer hadn't even submitted her report

[gritty sandal]

rea?

[haughty birch]

😭

no

early notification / likely thing but not likely cuz its actual

[gritty sandal]

damn

stanford likely is crazy

[haughty birch]

i didnt even know tehy did that

[frosty yew]

pls bu pls

[haughty birch]

funny thing is i know one person from my school who got one too, and we're not a feeder or anything

we haven't sent anyone to stanford in the past 10 years (at least) so

[frosty yew]

everyone thought my school was blacklisted from NYU cause noone had gotten in for like 5 years

[red venture]

BYE

[whole cradle]

ok i don’t like to claim yield protection but i feel like this time it might be true

[inland perch]

damn i got rejected where the poll at

[waxen sluice]

Incredibly based

[muted canopy]

Apparently, it's not up yet.

[whole cradle]

i posted a tiktok and people were commenting “stats?” and my friend told me to use that as a response

[red venture]

😭😭😭😭

so real

people watching club sounds kinda fire ngl

[frosty yew]

wait have all international students gotten their bu decisions asw

[muted canopy]

?????

[red venture]

LMAO the exactttt text

[haughty birch]

Feel free to share and repost!

[red venture]

ok but like

[deep flower]

Bro you shouldve been to harvard with that stats

[muted canopy]

. . . . I don't think I want to hear you out anymore . . .

[karmic pulsar]

[mint wren]

Okay but fr stats

[red venture]

😔

[whole cradle]

we will see in 5 days

[red venture]

time to unfollow this thread💔

[red venture]

omg no way its this soon

[waxen sluice]

Yeah maybe tbh, idk

[flint kraken]

Yup I got mine

[prime shuttle]

What makes yall think a Yale likelies stats won’t be like every other Ivy admit 😭 bros probably got crazy grades and ex regardless

[stuck zinc]

@whole cradle bro u stil in here sobbing about ur bu wl when u got yale 😭

[whole cradle]

when my friend applied ED his KHC decision was at the same time i think

[waxen sluice]

I think for me it's because I showed like 0 demonstrated interest lmao

[frosty yew]

oh okayy

[whole cradle]

😭😭😭

i need to cope

I WANTED TO GO HERE

[frosty yew]

my portal is slacking smh

[frosty yew]

U GOT INTO YALE

U DO NOT NEED TO GO TO BU

[karmic pulsar]

alr thanks

[stuck zinc]

are you deadass sayign youd rather go to bu then yale?

[whole cradle]

😭😭

[whole cradle]

no

[prime shuttle]

This like getting into Harvard and complaining u got wl at Umass Boston

[frosty yew]

RIGJT

[whole cradle]

i’m imagining a world where i didn’t have a yale likely

[flint kraken]

Yeah it was so slow when I was tryna open the decision 😭

[whole cradle]

i probably would’ve chosen bu over mich

[haughty birch]

honestly they are crazier from who i know

[muted canopy]

Honestly, whenever I see somebody who got into a crazy school, I'm kind of curious just to see what extracurriculars they have, because those are occasionally interesting.

[whole cradle]

if it was cheaper

[stuck zinc]

why would you imagine something that isnt reality

[prime shuttle]

But that world doesn’t exist

[frosty yew]

mine still says " Please check back often to review your application status.

All of the materials needed for you to complete your application to Boston University can be found in this checklist." 😀😀

[whole cradle]

because i submitted my bu app before i submitted yale

[stuck zinc]

put the fries in the bag in mcdonalds in new haven

[deep flower]

Hes top 0.001% at league trust

[whole cradle]

i’m ngl guys i spent more time on this application than i did on my yale application

[inland perch]

deadass?

[flint kraken]

Oh 😭 maybe try logging in again?

[whole cradle]

if it was cheaper maybe

[prime shuttle]

Most of the top applicants have some crazy national/international uniqueness to them, I’m sure so does Uni

[inland perch]

oh well duh

[deep flower]

Stars

Stats*

[frosty yew]

done that like 15 times the past 20 mins 😭

[haughty birch]

me with jhu...

[whole cradle]

here DAMN

[haughty birch]

i spent 0 minutes on that

[inland perch]

i got into mich engineering but not BU engineering

[whole cradle]

3.96 1460

[prime shuttle]

I did my Yale essay in 3 hours and got an interview “anything can happen”

[whole cradle]

SAME LNFAO

[flint kraken]

Oh no 😭 just email them in a bit ig

[prime shuttle]

You apply for Mechy?

[whole cradle]

i applied BU ds

[frosty yew]

did i apply to the wrong bu or smth

[whole cradle]

i applied CS at mich

[haughty birch]

the guy i was arguing with in gen chat would call this a "bad" sat... smh 😭

[inland perch]

i wanna say yield protection but i think my essays were just cheeks

[haughty birch]

its good

idk why ppl r dicks

[prime shuttle]

Ah, getting into cs at Mich is tough

[whole cradle]

bro so many ppl have been telling me that i don’t deserve yale w my sat score

so fkn annoying

[haughty birch]

clearly yale thought u deserved it

wtf do they know

[frosty yew]

i have the same sat but a lower gpa i think

[haughty birch]

theyre not AOs

[frosty yew]

around 3.8 ish

[deep flower]

Sat score doesnt mean much

[prime shuttle]

I’m a strong believer that anyone with time and effort can get a 1400+ and get into a t50

[deep flower]

Is inflated

[whole cradle]

like why do people talk about a 1460 like it’s an 800

people act like i’m an idiot bc i don’t have a 1500

[prime shuttle]

Sat inflation

[haughty birch]

i mean even if someone has a lower SAT

it doesnt matter

[inland perch]

just show them the yale likely

[whole cradle]

yes

[haughty birch]

if they get into a good school

be happy for them

dont shit on their SAT

like the amherst guy with a 1240 or whatever

[whole cradle]

yes

[deep flower]

Egos:

[haughty birch]

lets not be rude, it's a low score but that doesnt mean u have to be a dick

[whole cradle]

it’s so annoying when ppl talk about good scores like they’re bad

[deep flower]

Its because of their ego

[whole cradle]

like even a 1240 is 200 points above national avg

[haughty birch]

yep... or call an above average score "horrible"

😭

[whole cradle]

😭😭😭

[haughty pawn]

anyone else get waitlisted

[whole cradle]

me

[haughty birch]

and then i said it was lowkey giving elitist and they told me no

💔

[prime shuttle]

With Harvard and Yale test required this year the sat average will likely go down anyway, proving the few years were inflationary numbers

[frosty yew]

anyone else not gotten a decision yet

[haughty birch]

i was like it feels like that energy

[whole cradle]

😪

[crisp cape]

waitlisted bu but got into uchicago rd🤨🤨🤨🤨

[haughty birch]

not looking at the right link

[whole cradle]

i don’t think yale will go down just bc of test flexible

[haughty birch]

uchicago RD is fkn crazy

[whole cradle]

damn that’s aura

[frosty yew]

i have been 😔

[whole cradle]

congrats man

[frosty yew]

WOAHH CONGRATS

[crisp cape]

thanks haha definitely wasn’t expecting it

[haughty birch]

this one?

https://applicant.bu.edu/myBU/s/decision

[whole cradle]

uchicago rd is crazy work man CONGRATS

[frosty yew]

yep

[inland perch]

bro wassup with bu why everybody getting rejected and waitlisted

[haughty pawn]

it said 1 person got off the waitlist for 2027

[haughty birch]

hmm

weird

[whole cradle]

am i gonna be the boy who cried yield protection

[haughty birch]

is JHU like UChicago

in terms of ED / RD split

[whole cradle]

a little

[inland perch]

i wanna believe this so bad for me

[mystic phoenix]

i sent an appeal to be moved from fall 2026 to fall 2025 🫣

[whole cradle]

JHU was 4% rd

[haughty birch]

wtf is uchicago rd

holy

[whole cradle]

like 1% normally

[prime shuttle]

Idk, chances are less people with lower sat will apply. And those people typically also have lower ap test scores. Could be a case of higher acceptance rates all around

[haughty birch]

lmaooooo

[whole cradle]

it’s insane

[haughty pawn]

did they make a pole here yet i’m curious

[whole cradle]

wait i lied it’s lowk the exact same

[prime shuttle]

Someone I know got into MIT and was waitlisted Chicago and WashU

[whole cradle]

both r 4% RD and like 15-20% ed

[haughty birch]

where is hawai'i.

[haughty birch]

oh wait so theyre the same shittyness in terms of RD acceptance

[whole cradle]

yup

but jhu yield isn’t even crazy like that is it

[winter delta]

How did u calculate it brother 🙏

[whole cradle]

50% yield rate vs 88%

[winter delta]

I got waitlisted out of my mind 🤯🤯🤯 @frosty yew

[haughty birch]

true

but that's bc

[frosty yew]

Some random like gpa converter thingy 😭

its probably not even accurate

[haughty birch]

JHU doesnt admit as large a part of their class in ED

[frosty yew]

but oh well

[frosty yew]

they havent even updated mine 😰

[winter delta]

Did u check urs

[winter delta]

😭😭😭

Bro it’s okay udub 💪

[frosty yew]

RIGHT

[whole cradle]

then why is their rd acceptance rate still so low 😭

[frosty yew]

im manifesting emory 🙏

[winter delta]

🙏🙏🙏

[haughty birch]

i think

[winter delta]

When is it coming out

[haughty birch]

a lot of ppl just apply JHU RD

and not as many do ED

[frosty yew]

26th i think

[whole cradle]

idk uchicago does all of this yield gaming just to not be t10

😭😭

[frosty yew]

if emory doesnt work out, uroch it is 😋

[haughty birch]

everyone knows uchicago likes ED, i dont think ppl realize it for JHU

[tardy kite]

anyone got in? i need roommate

[haughty birch]

so they dont strategically apply

[whole cradle]

i see

jhu is just 50% of their class ed i think

uchicago is like

75% prob

[haughty birch]

something like that

[soft comet]

waitlisted!

[frosty yew]

they finally updated it

rejected :p

[vital magnet]

It’s not predictive at alll I got rejected from UMD smith in state but got into BU oos so dw

[tidal ore]

has anyone been notified that they got in kilachand? i'm assuming i just didn't get it, but i also haven't seen anyone say they're in, so part of me is hoping they may not have dropped it yet?

[autumn cave]

it should say on ur decision letter if u got in

[west tiger]

Anyone who got meriit scholarship

Did the merit add onto the aid you got?

[balmy scaffold]

nah not yet

[vital magnet]

I’m so confused it says my total cost is 47k

And the business school is so mid too

[west tiger]

Do u know if theyre good for engiineering

[vital magnet]

[frosty yew]

[west tiger]

Jank ass school

[jovial gust]

why can they not accept less people

and just give aid to those they do accept

😭

[frosty yew]

they should accept more and have a lower tuition fee

but then

[jovial gust]

ignore what i just said

how are they losing this much money

[frosty yew]

quality of education

[whole cradle]

the graduate students are on strike

[pallid sleet]

Is ur name a reference to disenchantment?

[cerulean ferry]

[muted canopy]

Uhhhh what's disenchantment?

(I guess that answers the question-)

[west tiger]

i applied electrical engineering

[pallid sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/shouting-elfo-nat-faxon-disenchantment-yelling-gif-18040288098760913022

It’s a pretty good show

[cerulean ferry]

what else did u get into?

[balmy scaffold]

is bu good for premed

[cerulean ferry]

I think so

[west tiger]

like college wise?

[cerulean ferry]

yea

I mean Purdue for example is better than BU at engineering

[west tiger]

yea i got into purdue, utk, umd

some other state colleges

utk is giving me full tuition off though

[cerulean ferry]

I mean Purdue is T5 for Electrical Engineering

[west tiger]

yea

only problem is price atp

[pallid sleet]

Bro why is there no poll??

[cerulean ferry]

BU must be more expensive?

[mystic phoenix]

i’ll tag the mods to add one

@opaque panther

[dim hedge]

do al lthe mods live in california or soemthing

[west tiger]

BU actually cheaper by a few thousand somehow

[cerulean ferry]

oh wow, if ur dead set on going to a engineering school id probably choose purdue

[round acorn]

I got in cgs

is that any good?

[autumn cave]

yea u transfer to any college of ur choice later on

[kindred brook]

With dorm and stuff it’s 30K per year

Without it I think it’s like 15-18k per year

[dense trench]

so i got into BU and 50K in aid but everyones saying its bad because they yield project. For context I have gotten into every school so far (BC, UVA (echols) etc) except waitlist at notre dame because i wrote cornell in my essay. am i cooked for ivy day?

[jovial gust]

well no if you got in you got in lol

but congrats !!

[dense trench]

thanks!

idt i got into the honors college though because it doesnt say anywhere

which is fine cause im not going

[jovial gust]

yeah idk why i even applied when ik i owuld hate it at BU

[kindred brook]

50K in aid is amazing

[dire shuttle]

HEY GUYS

[kindred brook]

I would love to take your place

[dire shuttle]

[deep flower]

How bad is the fin aid

[kindred brook]

Trueee

[kindred brook]

I only got 5,500 from fafsa

That’s it

No merit

Which is insane since all the other instate schools I applied to gave me some sort of merit

UMD trying to be special fr 💀

[cerulean ferry]

is BU waitlist better or direct transfer?

[deep flower]

Whats ur sai

[blazing surge]

Did BU come out?

[cerulean ferry]

yes

[kindred brook]

Around 120K from one parent and that’s it so not too bad but also my parents are paying for my sisters college and mine rn and she didn’t get any aid either

[kindred brook]

Yep

[blazing surge]

Okay, that means I have to check both BU and JHU today lol

[deep flower]

What college she goes to

[kindred brook]

UMD

[deep flower]

Ok

[echo rain]
