[ashen lotus]

nooooo sorry bina 💔

[rancid mauve]

Yeah it’s crazy. Research is cooked over there

Harvard is really going through it

I think they are trying to deport a Harvard professor rn too

The president of Harvard also took a pay cut 😭

[dusty torrent]

Nah Harvard is gonna be just fine lol and brown is losing funding too

[bleak magnet]

brown endowment is tiny and i talked with a professor there recently it's getting slightly cooked for them

[sly vortex]

Worse case Js study abroad

[sudden heart]

Why does Brown get less money than state schools and every other t30 bruh

[karmic zephyr]

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjPcC5Sc/

[slate cape]

[sleek lark]

ive lowk just given up hope lol

[atomic anchor]

i dont think i have any chance in bowdoin bcuz apparently they said some ED admits if they would consider a gap year

so basically meaning that they overfilled their current class...

[sleek lark]

noooo

for me i applied to a very niche college in Cornell and they already had their first waitlist wave and I was not a part of that 😭

and since its a niche college, their yield is prolly really high so my chance of getting off is like 0 now

[bleak magnet]

waitlist season coming to an end????

[atomic anchor]

abt to....

[bleak magnet]

take a bow!

[rapid dust]

Nice one

[barren dust]

Just got off georgetown waitlist….

Did not consider myself a wl warrior but ig i am now

[uncut sparrow]

And Berkeley still hasn't moved 😔

[sleek lark]

CONGRATS!

[barren dust]

TYSM

[sleek lark]

are you planning on going there?

[arctic plover]

#1268143812878925927 message

[barren dust]

I HAVE NO CLUE

it was my dream school but im already mentally committed to dartmouth

And i dont have time to visit to confirm if id prefer it

[arctic plover]

how long did they give u :0

[bleak magnet]

damn

[barren dust]

The decision isnt out yet

Ill be notified tmrw. Rn it still shows me as waitlisted. I just know cuz the finaid office sent me a congratulations email and said they were confused about my financial aid situation and wanted to know more about my monthly expenses

[arctic plover]

ooooh :00000

[barren dust]

So they totally leaked the result lol

[arctic plover]

skull this is so funny LOL

[barren dust]

IKR ITS SUCH A WEIRD WAY TO FIND OUT I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE HAIRDRESSED AND I GET AN EMAIL THAT SAYS “first of all congratulations on your admission to…”

[raven badge]

🐐

[frozen olive]

zamn

georgetown

[sudden heart]

SFS?

[barren dust]

Yep

[sudden heart]

insane

[barren dust]

Presumably, that is what i applied for. The email didnt specify anything so i dont know details yet

Would yall pick gtown over dartmouth if given the option rn??

[sudden heart]

Georgetown is wonderful, DC is wonderful

[sudden heart]

undoubtably, I don’t personally rate Dartmouth and I don’t see as much to it if you strip the ivy title whereas Georgetown has more aura + better location & outcomes if you’re in IR/Poli sci

But at the same time I hate Georgetown because I have to duke it out with their grads for jobs in DC as a UVA grad

[barren dust]

Ugh this is so tough

Lowkey might have to stage a trip there to actually check it out because i feel like ill regret my decision no matter what i choose rn

[bleak magnet]

so tough ngl

i turned down georgetown for penn

[barren dust]

Was it a difficult decision?

[arctic plover]

she was tweaking icl

[barren dust]

I get to take on the legacy of tweaking now

[bleak magnet]

yes i tweaked in jeni's dms daily and didnt decide until like right before

[barren dust]

Ivy vs georgetown dilemmas never end

[arctic plover]

it was so entertaining bro

[bleak magnet]

may 10, 2025 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀

[arctic plover]

i deep down knew you’d always pick penn though

[bleak magnet]

its so true georgetown is so peak

[arctic plover]

oh em gee!!!!

[bleak magnet]

😭

[arctic plover]

😕

god forbid a girl spread joy and love… u hater

[bleak magnet]

im busy feeling yesimatree's indecision as if it were my own

[arctic plover]

skull emoji

this is so funny ur reliving it

[bleak magnet]

I AM

[arctic plover]

you’ll relive it again through me next year 😋 trust

[bleak magnet]

pick georgetown if you get in lmao

[barren dust]

YESSSS I NEED SOMEONE TO PANIC W ME

too many chaotic feelings for a lazy Thursday morn

[bleak magnet]

LMAO

[arctic plover]

bro wants to live a double life through me

[barren dust]

Yes include me too pls if u get georgetown i wanna get secondhand experience of what i never got

[barren dust]

How is the area around it

Like is it full of stuff to do

[bleak magnet]

georgetown is like in a bubble its called the georgetown bubble i think they have their own neighborhood

i think you might need to go out slightly farther to do stuff but like. its washington dc lmao

[barren dust]

NOT MORE BUBBLES DARTMO TH IS THE BUBBLE SCHOOL 😭😭😭

[barren dust]

Why are all the schools that admitted me the exact same. Bubbled schools with weirdly outstanding debate teams

Before gtown they all shared being in the middle of nowhere too but ig that’s broken now

[bleak magnet]

i mean its still in washington dc the bubble is still a neighborhood in washington dc

[barren dust]

Shocker considering my main ec was debate 😱😱😱

[barren dust]

Okay true yes

[barren dust]

Ugh how crazy is it to just drive from miami to dc for a weekend

[bleak magnet]

wow i didnt realize i had so many photos ngl

[bleak magnet]

DRIVE????? DRIVE??????

[barren dust]

My mom would never agree but i want to sm. I wonder if my dad would fund it to fly

[barren dust]

UR RIGHT ITS STUPID

[arctic plover]

drive is insane

you’d be able to spend like 3 hours in dc icl

[barren dust]

Pain

I need to see this school i cant turn it down without knowing what im missing

[bleak magnet]

oh also think about religious focus. the jesuit values are the #1 thing that drew me to gtown more than anything else and so keep in mind whether you want that

[barren dust]

I wish i had a type to make this easier

Idm religion idm frats idm rural idm urban. Everything just seems do awesome and i wanna do it all

[bleak magnet]

this is so real lmao

[south spire]

dude dc has so much aura

i love that city

[bleak magnet]

this is what im saying

[barren dust]

It does

[muted summit]

[tender bay]

gl wl warriors

[rugged aspen]

[dusty torrent]

Accepted to Vanderbilt at 5:33 pm

[tender bay]

Manifesting this for nyu

It’s not over

[dusty torrent]

For those still on the Vandy wl I am declining

[barren dust]

Shouldnt georgetown decisions be out yet? Lowkey starting to think the finaid director kinda lied to me 💔

Or do i have to go somewhere else and not where i got my og decision to check

[south spire]

god damn

[signal stream]

Nothing from Wellesley yet 😞

[viral flower]

my portal had a status update at like 6:02 but i havent checked yet

[barren dust]

This portal

Wow i doxxed my email

This portal?

Ig maybe theyre releasing in waves

[viral flower]

yeah

i havent opened yet tho

but it was the same as rd it said in highlight you have a status update

[viral flower]

that's what they did for rd

[barren dust]

I guess. Ill wait to the end of today and call tomorrow i guess. Goodluck!! Hope you got in

I wouldnt be able to stop myself from opening

[arctic plover]

when r u gonna check?

[open aurora]

idk if this info is needed, but i emailed cmu about the wl and they said "It is unlikely that we will see movement from the waiting list, particularly in the short term"

[tender bay]

Praying for NYU tmrw

15 more days I actually have a chance

[knotty steeple]

upenn thinks they’re so special by not releasing their wl decisions 😭😭😭😢😢😢

[tender bay]

We are getting off

Honestly idk what else to do other than pray and manifest

Gave my all for the LOCI

[tender cloud]

is that all they said? and what school did you ask abt?

[viral flower]

just checked, extended waitlist lmao

it seems like almost everyone (or at the very least A LOT of people) got EW https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/1knlioa/did_everyone_waitlisted_from_georgetown_get_the/

my friend who is on the WL also got EW

like i'm sure they rejected or accepted some but it seems like most got EW

i actually got a heart attack when i started reading it bc this was the first sentence

The Committee on Admissions has completed its review of candidates on the Waiting List for the Class of 2029. I am sorry to tell you that the Committee is currently unable to offer you a place in the first-year class at this time.
and then they were like we actually want to give you extended waitlist

[tender bay]

Lmaoo

How big is the extended WL

[sly vortex]

Lmao

[barren dust]

Im pretty sure they accepted me

[viral flower]

on reddit like 6 people have EW

[viral flower]

if you haven't heard anything they probably made a firm decision yeah

[barren dust]

I mean still no decision yet but the finaid director congratulated me so????

[viral flower]

yeah then you probably got in congrats!

[barren dust]

My gosh still nothing

Are they teasing me cuz i didnt reconfirm

[viral flower]

honestly possibly, if you don't hear anything tonight i'd call tomorrow

[barren dust]

I see u gtown playing hard to get

Thank you for letting me know 😭

[tender bay]

Accept my prayers NYU and accept me

[rough raptor]

praying for all the columbia waitlist warriors

[slate adder]

i think this means u got off

[rough raptor]

i thought they just do that when they need more ppl

like vanderbilt sent me smth like that but i declined it

[barren dust]

I dont think so

[pliant raptor]

harvard closed their waitlist

[tender bay]

Damn

[barren dust]

Yeah gtown sent me that a while ago

[tender bay]

Officially? Closed

[rough raptor]

rip

[barren dust]

I BELIEVE IN YOU TOU HAVE GOT THIS

[pliant raptor]

this is the letter in portal

[tender bay]

Damn bro

Where are you committed

[pliant raptor]

upenn

[tender bay]

That’s 🔥

Hopefully I can get off the NYU wl , I’ve been waiting for so long.

[pliant raptor]

goood luck to u <3

[tender bay]

But I think patience and manifestation will help me power through

Good things happen to people that are patient

[sudden heart]

is that the second one?

first was prolly dartmouth

[rough raptor]

yessir

[pliant raptor]

i believe so

[dusty torrent]

Did u get an email

[pliant raptor]

yes for a status update

[dusty torrent]

What time

[pliant raptor]

7:22

[gilded oriole]

how come they say their class is full but they didn't send that letter to all waitlisted ppl

[dusty torrent]

Okay I didn’t get an email

[gilded oriole]

a lot of ppl on reddit didn't either

[rough raptor]

any columbia waitlist news td?

[gilded oriole]

i don't understand why they can't just tell everyone if their class is full and make a bunch of people wait with false hope

[slate adder]

what skl

[gilded oriole]

harvard

[gentle crow]

i’m still waiting 💀

why do they do Ts

[dusty torrent]

What major ru

[pliant raptor]

bio

[barren dust]

Hour 12 of waiting for gtown

[slate cape]

They have a wave of rejections/acceptances throughout May and June. The "class if full" thing likely isn't true. However, this year did have a record-breaking number of applicants. I didn't recieve an email yet, so...

I might either get a rejection email later today, or might still be considered for admission if they don't send me anything.

[hushed marsh]

Thank you

[dusty torrent]

What major ru

[slate cape]

i think i put bme? i lowk forgot

ik for a fact it wasn't something uber-competitive tho

[barren dust]

Hour 13 of waiting for gtown

[jolly bluff]

closing already?

[knotty steeple]

harvard is sending rejections for waitlists

not necessarily closing

[crisp imp]

yeah i think this is the case

one of my friends on the WL got a rejection email but another one didnt

[gilded oriole]

how many people/ approximately what percentage do yg think they weed out per wave?

[weak musk]

I believe it’s very rare to get off Harvard’s waitlist

[tender bay]

so whos taking psych tmrw

[crisp imp]

are we excited

[tender bay]

[spare elbow]

no fr, they need to touch grass rn

[frank delta]

[barren dust]

[arctic plover]

i learned that isabella was asian and it flabbergasted me icl

[visual otter]

IMAGINE IF THEY DID THIS i was telling isabella earlier what if they werent supposed to forward my app for reconsideration cuz i never reconfirmed my spot but they accidentally did anyways and i was never supposed to be accepted and it was a mistake and now and now and now 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[bleak magnet]

HELPPPPPPPPPP you should be fine

[atomic anchor]

usually they find out mistakes like that very quickly so i doubt it

[barren dust]

Its ok cuz if they did that then i know they wanted me but i didnt want them

(Thats a lie i want them very much please let me visit dc and at least end on good terms)

[sudden heart]

princeton say something

[arctic plover]

princeton do something

[knotty steeple]

my parents told me that if i got into upenn then they still want me to go to rutgers honors college 😭😭😭

[arctic plover]

oh my friends there rn she loves it

[knotty steeple]

yeah rutgers is great but i don’t like how spread out it is

[atomic anchor]

rutgers honors college treats their studnets like royalty

[knotty steeple]

and i heard the busing system sucks

[spare elbow]

preach T-T

Rutgers bus system is why i declined the school ngl, i wasnt into all that T-T

[arctic plover]

yes bro

[sullen parrot]

? are you instate?

[frank delta]

https://tenor.com/view/basketball-lebron-james-tuff-cold-ts-pmo-gif-2883041776783082694

[bleak magnet]

you can only get into upenn if you're in state since its a state school

[spare elbow]

real (as a Upenn kid)

[knotty steeple]

yes

[barren dust]

This is true i was out of state and i got rejected so that must be why

[arctic plover]

omg queen congrats on penn state 😳

[spare elbow]

Youtiao, visit me in philly omg

[knotty steeple]

i do not think i’ll get off the upenn waitlist though im ngl because the other 2 people who got in have perfect academics meanwhile i miraculously got a wl with a 3.6 😭😭😭

[barren dust]

YESSS cant believe ur both going to the same school

[knotty steeple]

but we’ll see

[arctic plover]

bro ur ecs must’ve been amazing what

[spare elbow]

ikr were so twin core

[spare elbow]

Insane brooo, youre cookinggg

[atomic anchor]

ec mogging

[knotty steeple]

they were i guess 😭😭 i live in a low income area so i dont have cracked cracked ecs but they’re decent

[spare elbow]

people on here are too humble ngl

[arctic plover]

ur the goat trust

[spare elbow]

Just say youre cracked asf bro

[frank delta]

humble ❌
crippling impostor syndrome ✅

[spare elbow]

REAL

[knotty steeple]

real

[atomic anchor]

real

[knotty steeple]

i feel like i’m gonna experience that whether i go to upenn or rutgers hc because both schools have cracked people

[sullen parrot]

ur parents are very kind and considerate they dont want you to fall into the "public ivy" trap

[spare elbow]

Upenn mentioneddd

(i love trolling)

[open aurora]

greatest fear is fear itself

[turbid vault]

😭😭

[signal stream]

Fear is the mind killer..

[spare elbow]

Fear? Idk what this is

[frank delta]

honors college is a different breed though because they of the honors college perks hc kids end up having an insane superiority complex

[knotty steeple]

i hope i never end up like that

[tender bay]

nyu pls tmrw

[spare elbow]

its okay, you got people who tolerate you (jk, we appreciate you <3)

[frozen olive]

honors colleges are cringe

can we create equality please

[spare elbow]

Me bc i got rejected from Rutgers honors core

[frozen olive]

why is literal human rights violations given to normal college but honors colleges get luxury goods ideal class placements free merch better quality housing and actual air conditioning

[tender bay]

penn state better give me the nice dorms

[spare elbow]

omg did you do east as a first option?

[tender bay]

Yea

[spare elbow]

ayy same

[tender bay]

But hopefully I’ll be in manhattan instead

[spare elbow]

no fr, NYU needs you more trust

[rugged aspen]

today was college decision day for my classmates and i told all of them i got off the waitlist for davis and they were shook as hell bc they know i don’t partake in any school clubs or organizations 😭

also told them i was capped for tamu and ut

[spare elbow]

YES SARA YOU COOKED THO

[rugged aspen]

THANKS THOUGH

[barren dust]

Hour 15 of waiting for gtown

Feeling dejected neglected and ignored 💔

[tender bay]

Manifesting your energy for nyu

[rugged aspen]

wishing you all the best

[tender bay]

Thanks! Congrats on Davis again

[rugged aspen]

thanks

[sudden heart]

i felt scammed

no priority registration + no passes on gen eds or anything

the only benefit is nice dorms for 1 year and a small merit scholarship (idk why they slashed it)

[south spire]

its columbia wtf

my parents love to clown on me for getting into only uc davis

cant do shit if you only wanted me to get stanford

[tender bay]

Parents don’t understand how random it is now

[atomic anchor]

are u a current student

[atomic anchor]

ucd is a good school

[atomic anchor]

my mom was like if you got straight A's you couldve gotten into MIT

[south spire]

i had two b's throughout hs 😭

everyone else in my school is just smarter than me

and more ambitious

[atomic anchor]

same i had a lot of B's

[south spire]

that honors bio class in 11th fucked my gpa up so hard

i had hella a-'s tho

[atomic anchor]

me with ap chem

[sly vortex]

What abt mit

[visual otter]

i had like 7 (not counting this year) 😭

[south spire]

dam

then again my school grades on a yearly basis not by semesters

[visual otter]

iciic

[crisp imp]

whoaaaa

that's really interesting 👀👀👀 i feel like i would def lose motivation midway thru LMAO

[sly vortex]

Yea js cs and Eng majors I think or mostly cs people

[sly vortex]

Ummmm what???!?????? An ivy hellooo???

[sly vortex]

Our office is a mess lmfaooooo

[unique zodiac]

Columbia please

[rancid mauve]

cap

you are definitely in top half of the grade in terms of grades

[rancid mauve]

uc davis is an amazing school lol but yeah parents be parents

[south spire]

...grades not intelligence lmfaooo

[rugged aspen]

i got 2 cs and like 8 bs 😭

[rancid mauve]

eh evaluating intelligence is very hard because there too many types of intelligence

grades are the only intelligence showed to colleges

[rugged aspen]

intelligence comes in multiple forms

[rancid mauve]

kinda stupid ngl

[rugged aspen]

fr

[sly vortex]

Why is mit not moving

[rancid mauve]

cuz mit is fat

[south spire]

technically not true cuz extracurriculars are a way to showcase ambition which is a form of intelligence, however this can be easily swayed by nepotism. essays are a bit more nuanced in this aspect

[visual otter]

plus test scores exist

[south spire]

lMFAO

[unique zodiac]

yes essays are so helpful

[south spire]

uc's dgaf 😔

[atomic anchor]

ugh having asian parents is hard

[rancid mauve]

i hate ucs

[unique zodiac]

only reason I got Columbia waitlist stg

[visual otter]

the ucs are all great (except for la they rejected me)

[unique zodiac]

they were so insane they were like wtf is up here I think

[south spire]

uc berkeley rejected me but i hated them anyway

[rancid mauve]

what a dumbass system. my parents paid hella taxes all for waitlisys and rejections

[south spire]

ucla also rejected me but im still chill with them

[rancid mauve]

stanfors is better anyways

[visual otter]

a lot of waitlists are moving to be fair

[south spire]

ur gonna get off that waitlist

[visual otter]

everything except ucb.

[south spire]

unless ur happy with IU

[rancid mauve]

yeah thats true. on my part, i did withdraw from uci, ucsb and ucd

[rancid mauve]

they are p cool. but id defo take stanford or northwestern

[visual otter]

those + LA have had the most movement iirc

[rough raptor]

Idek my Columbia essays were hot garbage

[south spire]

doesnt IU have the highest job placement like most ppl hired

[opal sierra]

highest job placement in what field

[rancid mauve]

they do place p well in chicago but in the end i always want to come back here

[south spire]

kelley so business

[unique zodiac]

bro I wrote about fighting a chicken

[south spire]

ah

[rancid mauve]

kelley has high job placement because of the sheer number of ppl lol

a lot compared to regular biz schools

[unique zodiac]

whatever you wrote was probably more… college essay-e

[south spire]

how much is the coa

[south spire]

https://tenor.com/view/minecraft-minecraft-movie-a-minecraft-movie-steve-jack-black-gif-4079785775268000209

[rancid mauve]

not too bad. i got a sweet schol so its like 50k-55k

[unique zodiac]

I was kinda done and wrote whatever I wanted cause it was free

[south spire]

oh not bad at all

man why cant the ucs show more love to instate students like uw

[rancid mauve]

my buddy wrote about failing his driving test 5 times and how is continously persevering

[atomic anchor]

the ucs are like 85% californian tho

[rancid mauve]

fr. i wish we had 90% cap like ut

[unique zodiac]

see that’s entertaining I like that

[atomic anchor]

its insane that 3 ppl from my school got into berkeley

[south spire]

LMFAOOO IS THAT WHO IM THINKING ABOUT

[atomic anchor]

cuz they only accept like 70 ppl from new jersy a year

[rancid mauve]

is yours a private school?

[opal sierra]

ion understand why east coast people apply to uc schools

[south spire]

west coast best coast

[rancid mauve]

yep it is

[rancid mauve]

yk our favorite local high school placed like 50 at berkley

[atomic anchor]

yeah

[opal sierra]

we have all 8 ivies, mit, duke, jhu, and more

[visual otter]

same reason why we apply to GT, umich, and unc 😭

[atomic anchor]

east coast cant be beat 🔥

[unique zodiac]

west coast is best coast fr

[rancid mauve]

eh you are from new jersey tho

[unique zodiac]

lifestyle cannot be beat

[atomic anchor]

west coast more like pest coast

[rancid mauve]

the greatest thing there is either princeton or atlantic city

[south spire]

MIDDDDD

[unique zodiac]

going surfing before school 😍

[south spire]

MIDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[opal sierra]

all you have is stanny and caltech 🥀 🥀

[south spire]

i swear they overenrolled berkeley like wtaf

[opal sierra]

also, west coast drains ur wallet

i am not paying 4k for a shoebox in la gng 😭

[south spire]

big wave tomorrow yes or no

[rancid mauve]

acting like nyc, dc and boston arent hell as well

[visual otter]

5k per month apartments in nyc 🔥

[rancid mauve]

hope hope hope

[opal sierra]

eh, dc and boston aint that bad

[unique zodiac]

yeah la you can get a 3 bed for like 3.5k if you’re willing to drive a bit

[south spire]

no no no not apartments, closets

[opal sierra]

nyc has better housing than la 😭

[rancid mauve]

deof not

[opal sierra]

but both are bad, cant deny

[unique zodiac]

no way I lived in both

[rancid mauve]

sf is worse than nyc but la is better than nyc

[unique zodiac]

la housing way better wayyyy less bugs

[rancid mauve]

sf is so dog for housing rn

[south spire]

its a shame cuz sf is such a nice city

[unique zodiac]

so humid in nyc and the roaches go crazy

[opal sierra]

we dont got earthquakes tho

[visual otter]

i wake up. my 5 roommates have already left for work, leaving me alone in our 5k/month studio apartment. i head to my car. the windows are broken, having been smashed in my slumber. a homeless man squats right next to me and takes a shit. i sigh. another beautiful day in sf

[unique zodiac]

see I prefer earthquakes to hurricanes and yall will have earthquakes soon enough with the destabilization of old faults on the east coast

[opal sierra]

we dont have hurricanes lol

northeast js has snowstorms

[south spire]

lfmao

[unique zodiac]

NYC has had hurricanes

[opal sierra]

our biggest one was hurricane sandy, thats it

[rancid mauve]

sf is rlly beautiful. its just a certain 1/8 of the city that fucks everything up

[opal sierra]

and that alone was 13 yrs ago

[unique zodiac]

west coast still best coast

[south spire]

mhm

[south spire]

Ida?

tbf that was a brief event

not as horrible as sandy

[opal sierra]

that did nothing

[south spire]

[dusky junco]

like damn ur parents are evil

[bleak magnet]

davis is practically t30 too

its like #33 and georgetown is #23 and still considered a t20

[dusky junco]

so true

[bleak magnet]

not that the ranking really matters lmao

[dusky junco]

^^

brandeis got gutted in rankings 💔 💔 💔

no one can tell me its not a t40 at heart 🥰

[bleak magnet]

im pretty sure it was there before i think us news is trolling

[dusky junco]

yep

us news is bizarre

[south spire]

Didn't tufts do their own thing and fall from t20

[polar ocean]

rpi was also like a T40 not too long ago

[tender bay]

Pls NYU let me in today, I wanna see some good news after psych

[barren dust]

[barren dust]

Hour ?????? Of waiting for gtown: ** An update to your application was last posted March 25, 2025.** ** An update to your application was last posted March 25, 2025.** AN UPDATE TO YOUR APPLICATION WAS LAST POSTED 25,2025.

[rose burrow]

yes goat

[dusky junco]

day 37 . . . . of hoping Amherst takes me off of the waitlist

[gilded oriole]

not me being
deferred-> ao interview-> waitlisted -> no update first wave

😭😭

[tender bay]

We will make it

Good things happen to those who are patient

[rugged aspen]

that is diabolical 😭

[barren dust]

Okay

So i found out what happened

The email from the financial aid office WAS a mistake. Essentially they were very strongly considering me for admission but they were supposed to call me to make sure id go if they admitted me and they wanted to get my aid offer first.

So they told me to fill in whatever the aid office asked for me and ill get a decision once everythings complete

So basically the finaid office accidentally leaked that i was admitted when they asked me for more info

[barren dust]

@crude light @arctic plover @bleak magnet 😭😭😭

[crude light]

😭

are you still considering Georgetown? @barren dust

[barren dust]

I mean yes i am im actually gonna visit since my family offered to pay for a trip

But this is wild lol how do you accidentally leak an admission

I think they were only gonna admit me if i show strong demonstrated interest but i dont think theyll take it back even if i tell them im deciding between gtown and dartmouth tbh…like they already congratulated me theres no way theyd take it back right

[crude light]

atp idt they even gaf as they really want students to come haha

no doubt they want talented students like yourself

[barren dust]

Apparently they only admitted a tiny amount of waitlist students for sfs this year which makes me feel honored but theyre still treating me like a situationship rn

[arctic plover]

omg 😭 😭 HELP

well congrats !!!! wowowowowow im guessing it means u got in they were just waiting on some more info

[barren dust]

I mightve goofed

I said i mentally committed to dartmouth but gtown was my dream school so i was getting money together to go to DC and decide between them

But lowkey i think if they take it back then that just makes my decision for me right? I wont be upset abt it

And also itd be WILD to leak admission and then take it back before they can go

[crude light]

i hope the aid pulls through for you and stuff

[barren dust]

Yeah true

I did a calculator and it estimated 16k a year COA but i hope they either give more or match my dartmouth offer

Dartmouth is only making me pay like 4k a year

[crude light]

would love to be a resource if you're still having a hard time as believe me i committed to georgetown on the last day

[crude light]

that's super impressive

[barren dust]

Its more about my finaid situation than my merit but yes ikr its such a good opportunity

[crude light]

no no i know but i think there's something to be said about them giving you a great aid package and you being a student WORTH that aid package

georgetown isn't the best w aid in general from my own experience, but ik they give great packages to a lot of other students

[barren dust]

Thats a unique way to look at it, thank you :)

Would you wanna meetup if i visit? Would love to see what its like from someone who’s a student

[crude light]

haha pm me about this, i'm back home for the summer vacation and i live abroad

but happy to have a chat about this if it's more productive

[gleaming dragon]

you should definitely reply and show interest if u want to get off the wl, they're on the edge on sending it or not. just say it's your dream and you'd love to etc, that'd help them be sure

you'll probably get off considering the situation, but this way u can kinda be sure u'd get off

[barren dust]

I said i mentally committed to dartmouth but gtown was my dreamschool so now im reconsidering and i want to visit to decide between the two

If i dont get accepted then idk ig it decides for me

But id be shocked honestly because thats an awful look to officially congratulate someone and take it back

[gleaming dragon]

yea thats natural to mentally commit, I dont think that they'd find that negative

but like yk the whole thing with the wl is making sure people enroll if u get them off

[barren dust]

What isnt going for me is that i never sent a loci or even reconfirmed interest when they asked me to, so i think thats why they were on the edge

[gleaming dragon]

oh bruh

[barren dust]

They werent sure id commit

[gleaming dragon]

I mean yeah prob, thats very negative if u didnt submit

they're very unsure rn for sure, cuz in the loci u say "I'll enroll if addmited etc"

[barren dust]

Yeah i was so lowkey shocked like i thought the loci thing would be enough to disqualify me considering they admit like 2% of wl applicants but not even reconfirming i thought the door was shut for sure

[gleaming dragon]

why didnt u submit loci tho

[barren dust]

Uh. Cuz i got into dartmouth and even if gtown was my dream school, it felt like my effort was better dedicated to falling in love w dartmouth which i did than trying to get off a waitlist that barely accepts anyone

[gleaming dragon]

yea thats pretty good

[barren dust]

I mean the AO said that me calling was a demonstration of interest and theyd give me a decision once i give the finaid people what they need so that sounds like a roundabout way of saying im admitted too

[gleaming dragon]

if u wanna still have it on the table, if I were u I'd send them a quick email saying that I'm very much interested etc

[barren dust]

Maybe theyd take it back if i didnt show interest before but now theyre kinda locked in lowkey

[gleaming dragon]

I wonder if they will make their decision based on fin aid

[barren dust]

Or maybe not but id be shocked bc who does that thatd be awful 😭

[gleaming dragon]

is georgetown need-blind for u? i have no clue

[barren dust]

They shouldnt. They know full well im a very poor applicant already so there shouldnt be any confusion

If they dont match my dartmouth offer i think its off the table

[barren dust]

Yes

[gleaming dragon]

cool

[rough raptor]

bruh columbia is the master of edging

[gleaming dragon]

yeah if I were u I'd do this to turn 90% certainty to 99%

[crude light]

what extra amount would you be willing to take georgetown over dartmouth

[gleaming dragon]

some people on collegeconfidential were saying the ui changed today

[crude light]

like would 10k/yr be a make or break?

[gleaming dragon]

i didnt notice it tho

[rough raptor]

yo lowkey i think i noitced it

[barren dust]

Honestly yeah since im indecisive anyways cost is a very big factor

[rough raptor]

it now doesn't have the part that says "thank you for your interest" and i think, now it only says thank you for submitting

[gleaming dragon]

idk

didnt notice

[crude light]

i mean i would say the opportunitiy cost you get from not being in DC but still being inersted in gov/ir is is more than 6k/yr ie more value by being at Georgetown

ik this appears like im saying this from a position of financial freedom but there's something to be said about that is all im saying

[barren dust]

Like rn, assuming its the same cost, my pros lisr is:

Georgetown:

in the city, environment i like more.

Beautiful campus & architecture

Better for politics and IR and SFS is almost what theyre known for

Better for internships and work

Lowkey more lay prestige than dartmouth

Dartmouth:

better programs if i ever change my mind

Ivy name/ probably slightly teenie tiny better name for employers

Bigger feeder to law school except GULC obv

Smaller school so more individual attention and better foreign programs like oxford exchange term, london school of economics, Italy etc

Undergrad focus

Lowkey warmest and kindest people ive ever met

[rancid mauve]

What major are you

[barren dust]

I dont know

[rancid mauve]

Definitely pre law tho right?

[barren dust]

Most likely something politics into law school but im also considering physics and aerospave engineering

[sand mango]

u should go dartmouth cuz ivy is an ivy

[barren dust]

Which is another pro for dartmouth tbh better for STEM

[rancid mauve]

But Georgetown is literally where all politics and law happens

[barren dust]

This is silly and a very shallow reason to make a decision tbh

[rancid mauve]

I think you should definitely visit Georgetown

[crude light]

bro smh

[sand mango]

sorry for rage baiting guys

[rancid mauve]

If it’s politics either would be an extremely good experience but I think Georgetown edges it out

[gleaming dragon]

yo before even comparing make sure u have both on the table!! u should email them or ur not going out of ur way to get off the wl

[rancid mauve]

They basically already got off

[crude light]

@barren dust not sure if you're aware but the study abroad is excellent at Georgetown because the SFS requires proficiency in a language, almost everyone does it there. not sure if that's a pro for Dartmouth imma be honest

i've actually heard of Georgetown's study abroad being among the best

[barren dust]

I meant moreso for exchange terms

[crude light]

don't think you're left short there either

[barren dust]

Dartmouth is also known for its but it has really good foreign exchange programs at known schools

Im looking at that oxford one very mouthwateringly tbh

[rancid mauve]

Georgetown exchange program is excellent I’ve heard a lot of great things from there

[crude light]

i mean we have that as well...

[barren dust]

Really?

[arctic plover]

boing boing

[crude light]

yes. a close friend is doing PPE study abroad

[rancid mauve]

Oh wait you attend Georgetown?

[barren dust]

Ugh cant i spend two years at grown and then two gears at dartmouth

Ill 50% enroll since my baes are fighting for me

[crude light]

yes just wrapped up freshman year

[barren dust]

Yeah checking out the programs they do seem great

Ugh i so need to visit. Hopefully they give me the aid and time to experience georgetown life

[crude light]

cambridge is also an option

[crude light]

yea i mean if you're not able to visit open to answering all qs. obvi financials have to pull through but yea

[rancid mauve]

How are the athletics over there? One of my buddies is going there next year so just asking for him

[crude light]

i think it's really good tbh, im not super well-versed with the sports scene but i think student-athletes do very well and find a good balance

[rough raptor]

[mental jacinth]

[tender bay]

Deadass

Where did you find out

[jolly bluff]

[south spire]

[tender bay]

Cool

I’m cas too so hoping for something soon

[jolly bluff]

🕯️ 🙏

[tender bay]

Aight thanks

Pls I hope this means they reviewed more and they will roll out more next week

[rancid mauve]

U got this bro

[south spire]

u too

unless u dont care about ucsd

[pure latch]

guys i got off washu and barnard waitlists but ive been committed to umich what should i do?? im premed btw

[mental jacinth]

I think washu is better for pre med if academics are your main focus

But if you also care about student life Michigan is where it’s at obvi

[pure latch]

what abt barnard isnt it in nyc

[mental jacinth]

yea it is

im not sure how you feel about the columbia situation so that may or may not be a deterrent for you, but nyc is an experience in itself

[sullen parrot]

wait what is the "columbia situation"

is it just about the research money?

or is there smth else

[spare snow]

Ur pfp is fire

[mental jacinth]

they've had a lot of issues with poorly handling protests

and they aren't supporting their students imo

[tender bay]

Aren’t the students rioting and taking over libraries and being anti semitic

[rugged aspen]

hello everyone

again i wish everyone here the best i believe in every single one of you that you will get off the waitlists of your dream schools or at least get into a place you will thrive in

[tender bay]

Yasss Sara

[south spire]

skibidi

[rugged aspen]

yesss

[tender bay]

Praying for NYU next week

[mental jacinth]

there have been some cases of anti-semitism but a lot of the protests are just peaceful sit ins against genocide

and students have been pepper-sprayed and dragged away etc

[rugged aspen]

yikes

[tender bay]

Damn

[mental jacinth]

then again barnard likes to market themself as a seperate entity these days so it may not be an issue

[spare snow]

bro the protests near nyu are so bad

i once had to squeeze through a bunch of idiots because they formed a huge procession

[unique zodiac]

Yeah nyu moved

Girl in my class got off the waitlist at like 1:30

[tender bay]

What school

Lmk if she accepts lol

Rlly hoping I can get off for CAs

[unique zodiac]

Steinhardt

[south spire]

[raven badge]

[spare snow]

[sly vortex]

WashU

[south spire]

[barren dust]

Lowkey id do barnard here

[coral moth]

[hexed cape]

lib arts is better for grad school and barnard (basically columbia) is one of the best ones

& also no offense but who wants to waste money on washu lmfao

[barren dust]

NOT THE COLUMBIAN DISSING ON THEIR SISTER SCHOOL

[hexed cape]

i mean if ur umich instate then ig umich makes sense
but if ur oos then prob barnard

[sly vortex]

Fr tho WashU is better for premed I got WL there so lol

[pure latch]

washu st louis is like top tier for premed tho idk if u guys r aware

[pure latch]
