like for qualified applicants
yeah cause of low yield
super high stat etc
its a target for super high stat preppy kids in maine lmao
So there’s that
WL is basically a loyalty test
bro u have a 1530
Yeah but gpa is beyond cooked
what’s urs
(im an intl seeking aid, we are not the same)
Im seeking like half aid ish
I got rejected from colby
so hopefully advantage lmao
Sadge
ed?
Ed?
Yeah ed2
Intl?
Yes
ed2 is the most random bro
And lot of aids at that
trust the process
IM CRYING
LACs are insanely selective anw
flygod aegyo
Colby or Laf could come out today lowk
embodiment of freedom !
idts colby is prolly 20th
Which ok state school
we r all free!!!!!
brrrrr >.<
yayyyyyyyyy
pow &-.-
LOL
I’m done working out shoulders for a long while
clavicular won't have had to take test injections if he discovered griselda early
and also wouldve gotten wsg oppa aura
rip
only part I work out
why is Colby acc rate so low
what is clav up to after asu?
im not up to date
free no supps
no supps
i showed pretty good Di there
actually like very good
considering they don’t do interviews
I am very well informed abt the lore but refuse to elaborate on it
like that was the only thing i missed
like its so stupid
but Colby doesn’t do them
😭
they do student panels
i did a chat w a student emailed my AO about stuff been on mailing list for years followed in all social
i saw the video where he said he would be shooting blanks cause he’s on roids or somethin
did th application update form
tf is oppa auro bro 💀
is this chill or what
idk
tehe
LMAOO
like i think i was cramming for a calc test on a random school night then i randomly checked my usps and saw a package coming 😭
must feel so good
did you get in ED or RD?
rd!
wait how do u check
check dms
so many people from williams here but nobody from wesleyan 😢
tufts coming out tomorrow
colby cares a lot about sat score. dont apply there if you are test opt
is that where jim simons got rejected from
I have a 1530 and a 35
where is this coming from
is that chill
not a lac
yeah fr
fr
like they are test optional for a reason
they wouldnt be to if they cared that much
its just another factor of evaluation
i mean just check reddit or talk to people
but for intls its the competitiveness of the pool that makes it a differentiator, still I think there are TO ppl that get in
i dont know anyone going TO
is 1530 35 chill for Colby domestic
yeah
Yes 💀
it is
Is grass green?
number of people applying to is diff from colbys interest in sat
Is the sky blue ahh question
brother im 1530 intl seeking aid and i think its lowkey fine
do they care abt sat act more bc they don’t have a cds or report much data
so the stats look better
If they admit more high tests
no school has preference afaik
35 is generally seen as a higher score tho right
😭💔
I applied to Wesleyan
same
wesleyan is goated
I had to withdraw tho
Wes is tuff
Indeed it is
thank you 🫡😁
congrats on davidson fr
I don’t wanna hype myself up but on last year a2c mega thread I saw someone with similar stats as me get a Colby wl and they got the same app update email
i ED’d to wesleyan cuz they have a good history/global studies program and college
Imma assume you were talking to me but thank you lol
oh i’m sorry wrong person i meant to reply to the other guy but congrats 🤞
did they send the update tho
yes yes sorry guys
did you?
and it’s close to nyc ngl massachusetts/williams is too far
and i’m already terrified enough
bill belichick went there
it was the OG lac big 3 lol
Williams Amherst Wes
cool school
yessir
yes 🫡 just makes me sad that some ppl online that respect amherst and williams trash on wes idk
I think outcomes are similar like
but like it’s okay out of the three wes is the best for my major at least
@upper glade
comparison doesn't mean that much atp
yuh I wrote like 200 words of update and 100 words of a short "why colby"
yea i’m grateful they accepted me anyways fr
niceee ur intl right
yupp
they have like
fire facilities n campus
im excited
ik a person that got in with similar stats as a korean intl so hoping for tha best
do they have different tracks that you can focus on within global studies?
one more day till pomona
u test op?
middlebury is also great for global studies right
good stuff
PG
there’s like different majors but what i’m doing sophomore year is attending the college of social studies at wesleyan, and it’s a major encompassing history, government, political and social theory, and economics
all of that encompassing each other is pretty much just global studies
ohhh
that's really cool
yes 🫡
wes asks a supp for ONLY non-mothertongue english speakers and it PMO
global studies my beloved..
thank you i agree fr it’s gonna be a lot of writing tho 😭
i will sell my soul to you wesleyan
like girl I've been in an english environment for 9 years
o for sure 😭
we need more wesleyan ppl in here 🙏 sending you good luck fr
ikr 🥹
I didnt get freeman so idt im getting in
feeling like decision gonna release this week
rip
unfortunately there's no global studies major at williams, but there's a concentration w diff tracks
i think so especially if it released last year around this week
they sound so cool tho
there's just no set track u probably have a plethora of options to DIY it
omg
texas state i got a full tuition scholo
I wanna do all the thematic tracks
yoo this sounds 🔥 damn williams is great fr
same
they are
oo congrats
thanks bro
Davidson I love you

i hope i can get into a place with some a2cers
bro if we end up at ND 🍀
ofc 🫡
mines more like clumsy nerd whos against society
lmfao
understandable fr
im hopemaxxing by listening to 2016 music
trust the process
😭
can't stop the feeling ahh
recently i read a manga that started with the main cast getting blown up by a bomb in 1975 and their severed hands still holding each other was launched off into the distance to get munched on by a dog
i pray my art portfolio add something to my cs application 🥹
wow how romantic
and then within the next 36 chapters it was 'nam being 'nam
whats the sauce
with the main girl aboslutely slaughtering everyone with a machete
i love seinen manga raaagdgdh
i did port for ND despite them saying not to lol
ahh ok
am i cooked
idk if its seinen but its called Dien Bien Phu
it relates well to me cause its literally mention my city in it
vietnam war manga😭 o yea this is seinen
u told me not to lmao
i did port at every single place i could
same
what's done is done
the characters looked cute tho
its fine maybe my graphics were so good that ND will just take me anyway
have you read ajin?
it feel so bad
YES its PEAK
this is lowk like cocoon
same
cute art style and then mass bloodshed
i have feeling u are gd major and just gatekeeping it
idk the author was so good
though i remember not sending to 1 or 2 college
hes cooking
bc they required lor from an art teacher
i wish they wasnt spending 99% of the time drawing nsfw
sorry i am not a weeb
amherst is one I think
gtfo
i had to borrow money to send in my port
oh
for wesleyan
yeah amherst
2 minutes before the dl
yh i wish they made more mangas
sorry my top artist isnt mofo Calvin Harris
oh yeah I didnt do it
like ive read ajin and the pool and they are both incredibly well drawn and well written
wait what other seinen would you recommend
for me
its john mayer but ok
i have the pool on my read list
have you read blue giant
im kind of in a manga slump rn not even my shoujo can get me outta it

jazz seinen manga..
how abt shiori experience
tbh its more like shounen to me

it made me want to learn sax

i love the sax !!!
most of my reads are fairly popular
in the ocean

Looks like you're gonna be crying soon 🔥
definitely if i ever get into college im doing my project on lens design
i used to be into telescopes
i have like 12 of them
o that's sick

i thought our artist starter pack would be gacha life lol
crazy !!
I have one body and like 4 lenses
dang we r so us
ehh thats ancient alr its sky cotl now

my dad was really into them lol and at one point i took over

Alr
my guts say wesleyan will drop the date within 2 days max 
lol thats so real
i submitted photo port to all school but im afraid that my subjects are too diverse dang

my lenses are mostly film era lenses
sick !!!!
Surely they should've said something by now
cracked
thats so cool
yall prom in a farmhouse or in a hotel
i love street
what photography do you do
yessss
i mostly do streets and some portraits
i have a canon ae1 but i haven't dabbled that much in film yet
they look so good
but also macros and landscape
love !!!
yo I got this for free once

lmao
😔
olympus pens are super cool and portable but the lenses are just too expensive
How do you check !
EEs are integrated lens I think
i have a nikkormat that i bought and a yashica fx3 that my friend gave me
some of you are chronically online
yes
high cortisol
agree
might get a fuji next
This thread is too tuff
in my area its a popular thing to convert yashica lenses to fuji x
or a ricoh
ohhh
yeah theres a p big phot community in ur country I think
I saw a lot of videos on like
old niche high end digis
from there
lmao
where do you live meh?
vietnam
theres some crazy collectors here
there are some monks with vintage leicas in their arsenal
o street photography must be sm fun there
and an old man with an entire house filled with cameras
LMFAO
AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO ABSTAIN FROM MATERIALISTIC SHI
some drive lexus
fire
yeah theres a ton of stuff
😤
have you seen the unseen river? it's a great vietnamese short film w beautiful shots
it depends on the specific temples and sects
no i havent seen it
im estimating amherst admits about 100 intls in RD
tbh even though i enjoy filming ive never watched that many films
this is estimating a 36% yield
1/ country
you should !!!
slight drop from last year
probably higher
lat year it was 39
is amherst yield that bad?
im estimating a drop because of less intl applicants and trump's crackdown on immigration
it was 39% last year
damn im so excited i hope i get into one LAC and meet all of those tuff ppl
i assure you that ppl are still as eager as ever to get the american dream
what percent of colby applicants yall think are intl
the sole reason i wanna get into tufts is so i can say im tuff 
idt intl applicants have dropped that much, maybe like 5% at most
ik im intl too
you have a tuft reason
honestly i think around 30% or sum
thats the reason why i estimated a slight drop
where do you find allat
oh wow what a decrease in india
happy days
did u apply to amherst
intl applications DID NOT DECREASE for SELECTIVE schools
if you go down the report
Honestly I thought it'd be more given the issues with trumpy boy
huh -2% viet apps
idk im estimating based on the ppl around me
and im from a fairly secluded place
" By contrast, the number of international applications to Most Selective members saw a
1% increase compared to this point during 2024-25. "
YES
below 25%
<25% AR
def t20s
Right ok
Where did you get this data from
common app
common app report but does not apply to selective schools
common app feb report
like
there was a november one asw if u wanna see EA/REA/ED/SCEA trends
Im p sure its the intl kids who full pay into state schools like PSU
that shifted to australia etc
not aid seeking ppl
my hypothesis is that the current administration is making people applying to selective schools
because the full pay gang are mostly from the top echelons who are usually more concerned about politics
so they shifted to another country
all the same
however they still want to try their luck hence higher percentage of apps going toward selective schools
yeah
but they may not enroll though
so thats why i estimated a slight drop in yield
OMG hi lac fan
what up my boy
all good vro
bro if a school removes withdraw button do that mean its coming otu soon
wbu
yuh
i got in
who removed?
no it just means decisions are gonna come out soon
im not actually withdrawing shi
yea i said before
i js wanted to test
jst go reject their rejection
im pretty sure 90% of the "hints" are just random glitches or part of the process
i mean it doesnt mean anything if they removed the withdraw other than decisions are coming soon
checklists are removed
davidson gave me a heart attack by dropping an admitted student bar too
yh
they can play all they want with these portals bro but none of that is coming through me
portal astrology is truly a curse
yall remember when nyu's applicants were leaked
and im cursed
do you remember that
im picking on every single hint possible
and their applications
(nonexistent)
ive never heard of it
search it up
some hacker hacked them
and released all applications since forever
my friend '29 found herself there
weird hacker
who knows
a week or 2 maybe
sometimes could just be a portal glitch
i wish they are coming after i wake up tmr
waking up to notre dame decision and midterm literature exam tmr
in lafayette email it say to withdraw if u alr committed
They will only admit 70
whats ur source
Assuming that they take half from ED, which is normal for LACs, this means they admitted 20 students ED.
The rest they will admit via RD, which is 71 students. And about 20 will yield. Which is normal for LACs. Swarthmore has around a 20% yield for internationals in RD.
meow
Oh my god that acceptance rate…
doesnt ED have recruited atheletes too which should be mostly domestic?
Yes, like what you said, mostly domestic. But there will be some internationals as well.
That’s a 1.45% for intl 😭
💀
easy
idk
peasy
we'll see
i just need to apply around 200 times or something
stats dont matter atp
(got into ND btw)
ive seen much worse
lets go gambling!!
gacha games have 1% drop rates
Isn’t it Bowdoin?
Bros gonna be 70 in college
Bros immortal
each rejection means higher pity 🔥
what yall do for pull days
exactly
Is Colgate easy to get into
nooo
no
Oh
y
lmfao
Why
3% lmao
fr
I mean
for intls
The REA is 10%
Does Colgate favor full pay?
prolly
yes, need aware
does it matter
Oh nah
like ND probably has a better career outcome than most LACs
except WA
for most fields except academia maybe
not much
maybe swat
theres a shit ton of 800 math out there
fuck
harvey mudd is goated afaik
Bro you’ll be fine
well regarded in engineering cycles
idk about ND vs Williams for IB/Finance
My friend got into Cornell with a 32, scores aren’t everything
Yeah i think everyone i know has like an 800 in math or something
Banger essays?
That’s great for him
But the point is is that test scores aren’t everything in an application
But with that also being said a 35 is not gonna hurt you in any way shape or form 😭
35 is quite good tho
it doesnt hurt but it wont be anything exceptional either
you are better off worrying abt something else
Isn’t a 35 like a calm 1520
Like 1520-1550
Well tbf if you’re applying to any t20 school, high test scores are the minimum
they didnt take half in eD
they took 216
a bit less than half of course but in elite admissions, every % is important
the ss i posted was directly from common app
I guess
guys no portal astro
i got put in timeout a few months ago cuz i was talking bout it
@glossy lagoon im reading blue giant rn while listening to jazz
it’s such a vibe
They literqlly rejected me in my dream yesterday
Frfr it feels so good
afaik oberlin, colby, wesleyan, connecticut college, etc.
dreams are opposite
i think middebury too?
Nah hamilton is 24th
Lafayette maybe
Lafayette might genuinely surprise drop
They haven't released a date yet
good luck on laf chat
😭
Lmao
what thread was that for
im good
is lehigh coming out today?
@smoky nacelle dang bro this manhwa kinda funly and not funly at the same time
wtf are those firing positions
😭
just wait until things get worse
those guys are definitely getting smoked by them goos man
ts pretty accurate
realistic
day 1 of manifesting williams college
There’s only so many days left 😹
people who applied to Barbara Silver Horowitz '55 Scholars Prog. at Barnard, can you now see a counselor assigned for questions about the program or was it always there amd im tweaking?
ha ilkwon my goat
Feels OD long
No
Leave him be 😭
that is ugly indeed
looks like a tiger with inferiority complex and an existential crisis
HEY

you dont even go to davidson 
It was my second choice
Cmon gang
Not too much on my goat??
naurr im not going i withdrew LMAO (but they've been acting weird since then hence wanted to ask)
Do you think Davidson AO is secretly stalking us in this thread
I hope not
Dear Davison AO: if you are reading this, please let the applicants Alex in. His a secret millionaire

i know why schools drop decisions in waves but it lowk kinda annoying
yall think today could be possible
I mean on eastern time
i rlly don’t gaf abt grinnell bc j don’t wanna go to iowa
impatience
midwestern lacs are the best wdym
yeah i cut grinnell from my list once i found out it was in iowa
Denison Carleton Grinnell
ok but ngl Denison is in a lot nicer of a town than Grinnell and Carleton
so
taj u 100% committed?
i wanna stay east coast
that’s valid
submitting my deposit in 2 weeks so i’ll still see what my other decisions are lol
I would like to move to east coast after Denison
i want to go to a lac with hogwarts vibes in new england sigh
realll
oh my god oh my god OH NY GOD

Laf at 3 pm cst trustttr
FREAKING OUT IN CLASS RN

☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️
im refreshing like every min
ahhhhhhhh
ANYWAY DAY 4 OF BEGGING GRINNELL, AMHERST, AND W&L TO ACCEPT ME
Day 1 of Colby tufts Lafayette
the page got updated and it doesnt say that im awaiting a decision anymore but my decision isnt out yet
what the heck i swear it said smth like awaiting decision but its gone now
am i hallucinating
oh my god apparently theyre only reporting acceptances
its over
what kind of bum ass school is that
the only released decisions are all acceptances
they dont deserve you
That don’t mean shiiii g
i think this is like purdue where first wave only acceptance and second wave only rej…..
if they do that
which school?
oh
meaning next wave is likely all rejects and now im rlly scared
I know a lot easier said than done, but try not to predict. just cause only acceptances have been sent so far doesnt mean there wont be more acceptances. who knows, maybe they sent out like only 10% of them so far
Nothings confirmed
What
😭🙏
im done 💔💔💔
Me too ig
girl what does ur page even look like
CHAT
isn’t it just application materials
guys what r h talking about
I can’t handle this anymore
Grinnell is actually so cooked
I can’t believe they dropped so suddenly
And it’s in waves
Def got rejected
all decisions out rn have been acceptances
this must mean that bc ours arent out yet, we are rejected
or the rejected guys just went to cry
we wouldve at least seen one rejected
and didnt bother with posting
i lowk dont rlly care abt grinnell so i don’t rlly mind but also my page doesn’t even say decided LMFAO it’s just checklists
you’ll be fine
guys just wait 😭 don’t get ahead of yourselves, you may be right or wrong but nothing is certain until you get your decision
when is grinnell coming out
is iowa bad or what? i am intl
i knew few intl going there and heard its good lac
so i applied
personal preferences mostly
no i’d just rather not be in iowa
my list is mostly northeastern schools
oh
i applied to grinnell bc it was free lol
im taking this horse by the reins making red coats redder than blood stains
fr? they didnt say anything did they
When
oh nah bro
what the email look like
im confused what a css profile request is bro
apparently some people
got a request
to submit the CSS profile
along with the ISFAA
i submitted my css profile a long while ago tho
im confused
so its prolly fine for me
right
For me it was just part of the financial aid checklist from the beginning?
yeah facts bro
Does anyone have a date for lafayette release
u talking abt lafayette?
