[signal gate]

nope

[misty oriole]

Yes we do lol?

[misty oriole]

For what?

Deferrals require a mid year update

[flat hollow]

@latent schooner did you get in?

[misty oriole]

But GT admissions isn't gonna look at a loci

[mellow locust]

isnt that sent by guidance

[misty oriole]

Yes

[mellow locust]

Okok

Guys ts hopeless

[misty oriole]

Just make sure they do it

[mellow locust]

Im intl too

[misty oriole]

The stuff will be in your admissions portal

[mellow locust]

Okok

[misty oriole]

I got deferred -> accepted btw it is possible

[prisma violet]

I mean as far as I know we don’t

[mellow locust]

OH any tips?

[misty oriole]

Uhhh

Idk

Idk how I got in tbh

[mellow locust]

What did u put in ur deferral form

[narrow basalt]

rejected

[misty oriole]

You can literally look at the graphs for each major

For admissions rate

[prisma violet]

Official and unofficial policy is probably different

[reef horizon]

unfortunately not

[marble belfry]

is there any way to reopen the decision letter im tryna see the yellow jacket animation again

[runic root]

Deferred

[stone ginkgo]

damn u still got other colleges so cheer up

[runic root]

Huh....

[stone ginkgo]

[plain anchor]

[stone ginkgo]

for people who got deferred make sure fill out "Deferred Supplemental Form (DSF)" when they release through email it give a better chance in regular decision round

[runic root]

Yeah

What was your intended major?

[terse nova]

cs 💔

[plain anchor]

okay

[stone ginkgo]

mine major was lmc program

[simple willow]

[stone ginkgo]

it was around 14-16% admission rate

[plain anchor]

any internationals here

[runic root]

Oh dang

[terse nova]

cs worse than Epstein.

[runic root]

me

I applied meche

[stone ginkgo]

did anyone get in

or no

[plain anchor]

oh damn

did any intl get in

[runic root]

I'd take this deferral as a win tbh

my chances just jumped from 5 to 20%

[simple willow]

yeahhh

[stone ginkgo]

same i though i straight got rejected lol

after getting reject from uf i been so sad

[plain anchor]

wait damn really?

[runic root]

Damn dude :hug:

[jolly knoll]

i got in but not for a tech major

[simple willow]

i got uiuc also, which is phenomenal for data science

[jolly knoll]

for chemistry

[runic root]

Yeah

[jolly knoll]

uiuc is super good

[stone ginkgo]

oh

[stone ginkgo]

nice bro

[plain anchor]

i got in uiuc and deferred from gtech

[shell cape]

did anyone else get the offer for the talent initiative pathway program

[sharp shell]

are all the engineering majors in the same pool?

[stone ginkgo]

is your major chemistry if not u try to transfer if u can

[simple willow]

same! which major?

[plain anchor]

econ

[runic root]

Not sure.

[stone ginkgo]

damn bro what

[jolly knoll]

i got into umich and i think its slightly better so mostly im not going to gt

i was just thinking maybe like aid and stuff

[heady heath]

such pain

[plain anchor]

tbh neither uiuc or gtech has aid for intls

[stone ginkgo]

i think umich and gatech are around the same i would pick the one that give me the most aid

[runic root]

This cycle has been tough for me I can't tell if my essays were straight up bomb threats or int just getting discriminated against

[jolly knoll]

yea i dont think either is giving me any haha

[runic root]

1510, isef finalist I thought that would get me somewhere ngl

[jolly knoll]

i just want to get into a uc bc im in state

[solar summit]

g tech ao waking up and rejecting a usamo qual and sumac camper 🥹

[jolly knoll]

definitely discrimination

holy yall are hella qualified

[plain anchor]

oh damn

[jolly knoll]

these schools are selling

[runic root]

Yep

[stone ginkgo]

i mean the law prevent application discrimination

[runic root]

Rejected from cornell, asked for aid. Deferred from USC, and now GT.

[jolly knoll]

everyone gets deferred from usc dont take it to heart

[plain anchor]

oh dang

[stone ginkgo]

that why uva removed their essays

[jolly knoll]

like ea is lower acceptance than rd

[plain anchor]

rejected from mit and uchicago

[runic root]

Cannot afford the tuition though....

[jolly knoll]

the uchicago prompts sound like hell

[runic root]

I needed that merit scholarship

[stone ginkgo]

do think i can get in after getting deferred i applied for lmc.

[plain anchor]

(i was just shooting my shot ahh)

[jolly knoll]

i thought usc usually gives good scholarship

oh yea you cant get it if ur not ea

i forgot

[plain anchor]

[runic root]

😭

[jolly knoll]

[mystic leaf]

UT: The school of deferral

[solar summit]

[solar summit]

[mystic leaf]

Did you have better luck for GT?

[misty oriole]

[umbral hawk]

[misty oriole]

If you got deferred you still have a chance tbh

[mystic leaf]

In 2045:

If you don't have a national Olympiad medal like IMO gold, you get auto-rejected from everywhere except CC

[misty oriole]

Don't count yourself out until whenever the deferral time is

[runic root]

[placid geyser]

Yk this is why Indiana dropped 60 on UIUC

[terse nova]

[runic root]

lowkey there might be a play of getting into a GT level school guaranteed.....just apply to hong kong unis lol

[terse nova]

I’m saying this when Purdue aent went 2-10

[autumn vapor]

I'm applying RD with a 730 math and 770 English, out of state, Asian male

[flint jay]

[misty oriole]

Congrats!

[signal gate]

were ya aero

[flint jay]

cs

[runic root]

CONGRATS

[signal gate]

congrats vro

[flint jay]

TYYYY

[flat hollow]

Yes… CMU statML

So data science at CMU I got defer

But somehow got in here and uva

[shell cape]

did anyone get rejected but got the talent initative pathway

[terse nova]

what is that bro

😭

I don’t think they offer programs for cs applicants

[shell cape]

its some guarenteed transfer admission in fall 2027

[shell cape]

yea

[terse nova]

ok

[terse nova]

wait that’s goated wtf

Georgia tech goated for that

[rich fox]

Nah I hate these offers

I’ve got the same offer but for UChicago

[terse nova]

ur literally guaranteed tech the next year tho

😭

[rich fox]

If it’s your dream school it’s great but you gotta think the pros and cons

Like for UChicago, it’s not like I can just take a gap year, I’ve gotta go somewhere

And importantly, you can’t guarantee all your credits from your first year will transfer

[terse nova]

mmm

[flat hollow]

I love Georgia tech

This and Purdue such fire schools

[wanton basin]

Anybody get deferred

No way it’s just me

[shell eagle]

a lot of ppl did

[wanton basin]

Oh lmao

[quick verge]

is there a gtech discord like this one https://www.reddit.com/r/UIUC/comments/1qriw55/uiuc_30_discord/

[terse nova]

preciate the Purdue glaze

🙏

[shell eagle]

yes

[flat hollow]

Have you heard anything about math and computing

[shell eagle]

[flat hollow]

Oh ok

[tawdry juniper]

i actually got in, I’ve been muted for the past 1.5 hours 😭

[narrow igloo]

congrats!

[safe trail]

got deferred, is it basically a rejection or no

[reef plank]

We have overall poll pinned

[heady heath]

20% get off

you still have a chance unlike me

[reef plank]

We had to mute you to prevent you from lying abt decisions being out again

[tawdry juniper]

I understand dw, i thought the whole thing was funny in full honesty it was a worthy ban

[wanton basin]

Nah you got a better chance I believe because I think they accept 20% of the people they defer

[royal moss]

Denied 👎

[granite stone]

Wait it’s fine I have hella friends who got deferred and accepted

[heady heath]

denied club fr

[royal moss]

I need a win so bad bro

[umbral hawk]

yo

[tough wren]

same bruh ea1 deferred cs 🥀

[royal moss]

?

[bitter kelp]

Dam 45% rejection

[umbral hawk]

it's never over

i got deferred from Case western, cornell, usc, umich, gt, ut austin,uchicago

got into uva out of state

[narrow igloo]

uva is a win

[royal moss]

Thanks bro I just need that one to accept me lol

[bitter kelp]

Better than rejection

[umbral hawk]

dude yeah

it will come

trust me

asian male for engineering

and i still got something good

[royal moss]

Applied gt uta vandy uga Clemson South Carolina unc uf ucla ucsb ucsd (those three for parents lol) northwestern Auburn a&m Texas tech just need one of those higher ones to take me

Only got South Carolina so far

[royal moss]

Asian male finance here really need ts

[umbral hawk]

why didnt u apply to more schools

bro ppl hating on shotgunning

but today, shotgunning is the way to go

20 schools isnt enough

commonapp should increase the limit to 40 schools

[royal moss]

Tbh I was told 16-17 was already a lot lol and everyone around me only applied in state to like 2-3 so felt weird abt it

[umbral hawk]

yeah the average person applies to like 5 schools

but u dont wanna be average

[signal gate]

rip

its cs tho

[umbral hawk]

someone here applied to 30 schools

[royal moss]

Facts

[full fog]

i wish i applied to a few more

[umbral hawk]

lowk the strategy

[full fog]

i only did 12 and got 3 rejections alr

[royal moss]

20 common app + through the schools individual apps?

[umbral hawk]

they emailed commonapp

and added like 12 more schools

so 32 schools on commonapp+ucs+mit

[full fog]

all those app fees

[royal moss]

Did 16 got deffered from 4 denied 2 1 acceptance

[umbral hawk]

yo

[royal moss]

Lowk should have done this if I got fee waivers

[umbral hawk]

[narrow igloo]

he's coming...

[umbral hawk]

i didnt apply

cuz i know im gonna get cooked by william lin

[crisp citrus]

i did!

[umbral hawk]

bro vandy i have everything on you my boy

[wanton basin]

I mean it’s college admissions. There’s some stuff people may have that ao’s like that others don’t have. You never really know lol

[crisp citrus]

i think mit might be lowk the best shot I have becuase all my ec's involve me building somehting from scratch

in one way or another

mens et manus

mind and hand

[buoyant vessel]

William Lin is in our class?

[mellow locust]

so basically defer is cracked so like how good u gotta be to get accepted

bru

[umbral hawk]

no

but like

there are kids like william lin

[narrow igloo]

i didnt think i was cracked at all but i somehow got in

[full fog]

nah im just surprised cuz hes a cs major and his #1 ec is business related

[narrow igloo]

must be in the essays

[umbral hawk]

also MIT applicant pool is cracked as shit

like the acceptance rate is one thing

[crisp citrus]

you might as well try ngl

[umbral hawk]

but the pool itself makes a huge difference

MIT applicant pool on avg is prob way more cracked than like UIUC applicant pool ykyk

[ivory timber]

Deferred :/

[tranquil cape]

better than rejection

[full fog]

i wish i lived in ga or nc

[tranquil cape]

wohoooo

[tranquil cape]

lwk ts is probally not even true

[wanton basin]

🤷 People applying for cs have non-cs related ECs and get into insane schools. I don’t got any CS related ECs, and I got deferred. Never really exactly know what they looking for tbh lol

[ivory timber]

I guess we will see

[signal gate]

im in GA and still get cooked bro

[buoyant vessel]

why Nc

[umbral hawk]

unc

[winter wolf]

anyone else??

[ivory timber]

Havent been rejected anywhere yet

[full fog]

ohh ok

[buoyant vessel]

oh

my school guarantees unc acceptance

[full fog]

unc in state is like 30%

[wanton basin]

Bruh what

[buoyant vessel]

And free tuition

[full fog]

bru

[wanton basin]

Mf goes to a cracked school damn

[full fog]

thats insane

[buoyant vessel]

I had to apply in sophomore year for it

[full fog]

some school near us had 2 people last year get into berkely m.e.t program which only takes a total of 40 people

[wanton basin]

the fact that you had to apply tells me that your school is insane asf

[buoyant vessel]

That’s crazy

we had one MET but she rejected it

For princeton I think

[full fog]

crazy

[buoyant vessel]

15 dukes 2 mit 2 UPenn mnt and 1 got lsm

I am 100% sure my supp cooked me

[umbral hawk]

math olympiad program

top 20 students i believe from the usamo

[royal moss]

That’s insane lol

[crisp citrus]

if you do well enough on an AMC (american math compeittion) you get invited to AIME (no idea what this is) then if you do well enough you go to AMO and if you do well enough there you go to MOP?

then its tstst then tst then imo

[umbral hawk]

yea

[crisp citrus]

i think in that order

[potent idol]

Luck wasn’t in my favor. Also just meche oos nj from non feeder won’t really help lol

[loud dust]

I knew I was cooked some dude i knew was taking Discrete Math this year

[potent idol]

I copy pasted from UIUC 💀

[umbral hawk]

tstst decides the imo team

[crisp citrus]

i thought it was tstst then tst

[umbral hawk]

idk

[royal moss]

Why does us math team run so deep 😭😭

[umbral hawk]

i only do phys and coding olys

[mystic leaf]

[balmy bronze]

gatech CS is getting too hard

[storm token]

lol

[narrow igloo]

i didnt even see the bees i just saw the word accepted and started screaming

[heady heath]

didnt apply there

[high locust]

that everyone who got theirs open before it came out got deferred by mistake…

[full fog]

i wish that was true

better than rejected at least

[astral island]

frr

[full fog]

only if they weren't located in the middle of no where

[storm token]

real

or smth

[narrow igloo]

[astral island]

[storm token]

oh wait nvm it says accepted after prob

[winter wolf]

[mystic leaf]

I had no idea how to write essays back in October

[storm token]

w

[high locust]

[high locust]

i hate umich no offense

[narrow igloo]

umich deferred me too

[storm token]

yield protect onb

[narrow igloo]

tbf i wrote slop on their supp and my gtech one was better

[high locust]

ppl at umich seem weird

[storm token]

yeah

locations p shit too

[high locust]

frl cold hearts and whatnot

was going to apply rd but the ed thing was vile

[crisp citrus]

i wrote slop on purdue -> got in

i spent time on gt

rejected

is there a trend

[winter wolf]

what is this umich slander

[balmy bronze]

umich and uiuc cs is much easier than gatech cs though

it gonna be as hard as CMU in the near future 😔

[balmy bronze]

umich has yield protection?

i thought it is t20 already

[prisma violet]

I heard GT doesn’t accept u if u say ur class of 30’ and not ‘30

[balmy bronze]

🗿

[carmine edge]

i spent 2 months on brown, rejected. Spent 30 minutes on another 3% acceptance rate uni, got in.

[narrow igloo]

who is saying 30'

[crisp citrus]

true

[narrow igloo]

which school

[balmy bronze]

stanford?

harvard?

[narrow igloo]

for me the trend has been the opposite

[high locust]

purdue is so goated

[narrow igloo]

the slop ones i get fucked the quality ones i get in

[carmine edge]

its in india, im still waiting for rd decisions

[balmy bronze]

ngl brown is the weirdest school ever

they have the weirdest damn admission

[narrow igloo]

for me if my essay quality is carrying this suggests lighter ecs

[balmy bronze]

of all the top schools

[carmine edge]

buns ahh school, named after a color, bad dorms, bad food, bad city

[heady heath]

bro

now im even more salty

i spend 2 weeks on purdue

[balmy bronze]

ngl brown is one of the bad top school

[heady heath]

and still get deferred

[prisma violet]

UCR obviously

[balmy bronze]

it doesnt even deserve top 13

brown real ranking should be like top 22-24

[heady heath]

is brown the worst ivy

[high locust]

location ur applying from matters a lot tho im sure youll be goated anywhere

[carmine edge]

its apma department is amazing

[heady heath]

thats the thing

[sacred shale]

@idle tartan

[balmy bronze]

bad food bad security bad dorm

[heady heath]

cwru has very good aero

[balmy bronze]

studets playing around

[heady heath]

but its in ohio

[balmy bronze]

grade inflation

[heady heath]

i do NOT want to go to ohio

[balmy bronze]

damn too much thing

[prisma violet]

Dartmouth

[forest nacelle]

hey everyone, i just got into Scheller for business and was wondering if any current students can provide some insight into how hard it is to dual major in something like comp engineering or mech enegineering or math & computing. and if i can switch into a dual major before committing

[balmy bronze]

brown & dartmouth

[prisma violet]

Don’t dual major twin

[heady heath]

ow

[balmy bronze]

at least brown is a little more elite

[high locust]

wait no typo i meant the location youre applying from

[balmy bronze]

but it is still bad

not worth it

[heady heath]

oh

the worst state in the country

new jersey

[balmy bronze]

princeton lets gooo

[sacred shale]

but my first instinct would be that its gonna be hard to add engineering as an additional major

at such an engineering focused school

[prisma violet]

Try asking where??

[heady heath]

princeton is the only good thing about this state

[umbral hawk]

@heady heath yo

ohio isnt that bad

[forest nacelle]

oh why? genuinely curious

[high locust]

see i got in from a weird county in nc thats the only reason

[umbral hawk]

im in ohio rn

[heady heath]

not talking about ohio
