my columbia friends said quite a few people are gapping so maybe that contributed to the big waves

#

DUDE SHE GOT OFF THE WAITLIST IM SO HAPPY

barren dust
#

So many columbia wl’s omg

arctic plover
#

LOL well i will say theres also quite a few kids taking a gap year so maybe that contributes to it

#

the yield isnt like that low 😭

Guys when am I gonna get off the Cornell waitlist?

sudden heart
#

but that’s more so because more bread chasers go to columbia, otherwise you probably find about the same number of columbia and brown grads in upper levels of firms

arctic plover
#

columbias a target, brown is a semi target btw but i dont think it matters too much as long as ur really motivated

You’re literally kidding. What is this 😭😭

CONGRATSS! I’m curious as to why you chose Columbia over UPenn Wharton. Is it mostly location? Both are fantastic so I’m just curious how you managed to choose between them LOL

yuth!

polar ocean
#

i also wanted to consider one but pomona does not let wl admits defer so yeag

arctic plover
polar ocean
#

ah nah i dont itd just be a personal enrichment type thing

arctic plover
#

ooohh

#

unironically ik quite a few columbia kids taking gap years so ngl that might contribute to the wl acceptances 😭

polar ocean
#

its not a big deal, early on i just thought itd be cool to travel the world with my dad for a little while, we havent had the time to do so since the pandemic and ive always appreciated my experiences doing so

arctic plover
#

that sounds so fun omg

#

if you are able to do that over the summer or take a gap semester while ur in school thatd be pretty cool

polar ocean
#

perhaps!

sudden heart
arctic plover
#

i said that it doesnt matter too much as long as you're really motivated

#

the one differentiator though may be location because columbia is in the middle of NYC-- for example on fridays during the school year a lot of students instead of taking a class go downtown for internships

#

but thats more of a logistics thing

#

a strong candidate would be strong anywhere

#

its only not considered a core target like wharton harvard or columbia because brown doesnt have the same pipelines

doesnt mean an employers automatically throwing out an application just because it says brown and not one of those three schools tho 😭

Korean bbq is actually so unhealthy even when i eat 7 bowls of the marinated salad

maybe ill have a mindset change sometime

#

always say yes to opportunities and then figure things out later

tulip furnace
#

i told them i could manage it

calm harness
#

i meant that in a kind way stressing yourself to believe that you need to achieve some sort of big purpose could just get you more stressed than needed

arctic plover
#

what’s stopping you from changing the world

#

if you have the mindset that you can’t then you will forever be limited

in other words be cringe but be free 👅

tulip furnace

#

nothing, but what's the point of persuading yourself that you need to have that as your goal
you'll impact the people around you as you are intended to be and if that is the world then the world will come along with it

#

idk i wrote my whole big ass guide so maybe i should take that as a sign that i can get things done without being extrinsically motivated to do it??

Hey guys I just got my financial aid offer from columbia and it's not looking great. I'm left with ucsd at 45k vs columbia at 95k. What do you guys recommend

#

I'm a cs major but I might switch my major to something in medicine

#

Something either cs or medicine related

dusty torrent
#

If ur going premed I feel like ucsd if cost is an issue

#

If cs id go Columbia tbh

weak musk
#

Ucsd

tulip furnace
#

ucsd cs is insane isn't it

#

and if u end up premed definitely the cheaper option

arctic plover

#

that cost difference is insane like yea ucsd feels a bit like a no brainer imo

bleak magnet
#

everybody is saying ucsd and i agree

south spire
#

^^

arctic plover
#

no reason to go into debt in undergrad if ur planning on ever doing premed or going to grad school etc

Otherwise i agree with the ucsd

switched from penn right?

u might also want to think about cost of living as a student but tbh both nyc and California are expensive af

I would personally go UCSD unless you can get significant aid from an appeal

noble stream
#

You're talking 200k debt over 4 years, if that's on loans you have to consider the interest rate on all of that, and then the fact you've got grad school and you'll probably need loans for that also

#

So avoid the debt

Thinking of switching to premed or nursing tho given the current status of cs

I'm actually an ai major at sd

I’m sure premed there will be great too

There is more than 1 a2cer who got off thats actually genuinely insane

From a waitlist that traditionally accepts a couple dozen out of like 10000 people who opt to be on the waitlist

Actually crazy

Ig cmu is actually closed now tho

At least its effectively done done done

Cuz most waitlists are winding down anyway and people arent too enthusiastic to go to cmu
