[empty knoll]

bro gtfo

[vernal hare]

[rapid creek]

Vast majority of colleges do not accept appeals

Most colleges cannot tell you why they rejected you either

FERPA stuff

[vernal hare]

I feel as though this might be an edge case

[tough mantle]

There’s no way you wanted to go to Smith

😭

[steep ivy]

bro

lowkenuinely i should change my display name

[vernal hare]

I wouldve committed there on my school instagram

[dense relic]

Ugh I’m actually so disappointed

[twilit peak]

Even as a shotgunner doing 0 research and thus leading to you apply is a bad look 😭

How tf did u even write the supps

[vernal hare]

idk i just copy pasted a different one

[tough mantle]

😭😭😭

This is the hardest I’ve laughed in a while

[steep ivy]

[tough mantle]

I’m always right

[steep ivy]

[steep ivy]

https://tenor.com/view/i-guess-bro-what-are-you-talking-about-bruh-wolf-of-wall-street-nose-pinch-gif-2883543456073544458

[steep ivy]

[tough mantle]

@rapid creek I’m sorry for the ping but can you explain to this man why this is a bad idea 😭

[rapid creek]

dont waste your time bro

[twilit peak]

CMU has an interesting one on their hands 😭 🙏

[rapid creek]

[fickle tundra]

[minor tundra]

Good riddance

[loud ocean]

[loud helm]

[tough mantle]

THE SKINNER SHITTER

https://tenor.com/view/chalmers-superintendent-angry-simpsons-yelling-gif-15312217003010553735

[sinful totem]

[tough mantle]

😭😭😭

[sinful totem]

well we don’t know if it was the floor actually

it was just i. the practice room

[sinful totem]

[muted cloud]

AURORA BOREALIS? AT THIS TIME OF DAY, IN THIS PART OF THE COUNTRY, LOCALIZED ENTIRELY IN YOUR KITCHEN?

[tough mantle]

[sinful totem]

An unreal school

[tough mantle]

[tough mantle]

ALL 3?

[fallen umbra]

the divine sister

[tough mantle]

😭

[floral coral]

LMAO

[tough mantle]

The chosen one

[tough mantle]

Which one is on top?

[whole coyote]

cant believe someone applied to smith

as a guy

💀

[tough mantle]

This is why you research colleges

[steep ivy]

i genuinely don’t understand the point of applying to 67 colleges tho

[tough mantle]

I applied to 27

Even now I wouldn’t even think about doing anything more than 20

[steep ivy]

he was trying to collect college decisions like pokemon ig

[devout spindle]

Ngl I kinda see the vision

[steep ivy]

yeah i did 13 i think and that was still a lot

[frozen cape]

i did 24 and ngl if i had to do it all over again i think i still would

[tough mantle]

I had to withdraw that many 😭

[devout spindle]

Like if you’d be happy at all 67 of them and they’re all selective then like. Go for it man. Ig

I did 40 because I did 25ish to 30 and my mom begged me to apply to some random ass schools in states she liked

[steep ivy]

thats the thing. he didn’t know shit about the schools he was applying to

[devout spindle]

And there’s still colleges I wish I applied to

[devout spindle]

Oh

Then idfk 😭

[steep ivy]

it was funny at first but then he just gave me icky vibes

[soft skiff]

Vassar, I'm waiting

[devout spindle]

Vassar sounds like lip balm

Vassaline

[tough mantle]

It was fun to make fun of him

[glass hornet]

What’s the 7 sisters

[steep ivy]

true

[glass hornet]

Smith Wellesley

Is BMC the 7 sisters

[steep ivy]

i think so

[glass hornet]

MHC

Scripps

[tough mantle]

Wait Scripps is a woman’s college?

[steep ivy]

i think barnard too

yes lol

[fringe spear]

Five remain women's colleges: Barnard College, Bryn Mawr College, Mount Holyoke College, Smith College, and Wellesley College. The other two: Vassar College became coeducational in 1969, and Radcliffe College's undergraduate functions were absorbed by Harvard College

[tough mantle]

I didn’t know that

[fringe spear]

So Barnard, BMC, MHC, Smith, Wellesley, Vassar, and Radcliffe (no longer exists)

are the seven sisters

[tough mantle]

Rip Radcliffe

[steep ivy]

i have a friend of a friend who’s going to scripps

[tough mantle]

W

[steep ivy]

actually i have hella friends going to women’s colleges

[fringe spear]

It’s in a better place now

[steep ivy]

love this for us

[tough mantle]

I have only 2 friends going to cool colleges

[fringe spear]

i dont have friends

[devout spindle]

All my friends lowkey committed to the same school that I didn’t apply to

[glass hornet]

That lego dude applied to all womens college I think

[fringe spear]

naur but my gf is probably going to cal poly humboldt and my one other friend is a junior

[devout spindle]

And then some of them are going to the middle of nowhere and then others aren’t going to college

[glass hornet]

It’s crazy

[tough mantle]

I have one going to Cornell and one going to naval academy

Hopefully one gets into Dartmouth

[glass hornet]

Wait

Did the lego dude leave?

I can’t ping him

[fringe spear]

He got banned

[devout spindle]

Huh

[muted cloud]

hendawg got banned?

[devout spindle]

Was it really just for the woman’s college thing

[muted cloud]

what for?

[devout spindle]

Or did something else happen

[floral coral]

yea lol

[glass hornet]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1127045977962971156/1148983656052953249/togif-1.gif

[fringe spear]

Final straw was trying to harass the admissions office of smith

[tough mantle]

That and him continuing being an idiot

[muted cloud]

he did what

[fringe spear]

But he’d been on the radar for a bit

[muted cloud]

????

dawg hello

[devout spindle]

What the fuck

[floral coral]

im really falling in love with carleton so much.....

[floral coral]

i mean like he wrote out an email and didnt send it

[muted cloud]

i remember he made a comment and its one I sort of quantified so I got flamed

[tough mantle]

This

[floral coral]

hes just generally annoying tho tbh

[fringe spear]

harassment might be a strong word but it’s definitely bothering them

for no reason

[floral coral]

fair enough yea

[muted cloud]

I dont think that's like

the worst thing ever

I thought it was gonna be worse

[floral coral]

im actually going to be so upset if they deny my finaid appeal

literally like 10k more is good enough i will go 100k in debt for ts

[glass hornet]

He reminded me of one of these middle school boys

So immature

[loud helm]

he got banned bc he constantly made “jokes” about transitioning to go to a women’s college

[floral coral]

omg wait r u committed to uga now?

[muted cloud]

oh i didnt see that

[glass hornet]

Yeah 😭

[devout spindle]

Was not aware

[loud helm]

i didn’t ban him bc he was annoying i banned him because he was being insensitive and offensive

[floral coral]

congrats!!!

[muted cloud]

the only thing I saw was like

the one comment about womens colleges

[floral coral]

athens is very nice :)

[fringe spear]

you can get banned for being annoying tho cant you

[muted cloud]

i didnt see the rest of it lwk

[fringe spear]

double Q being an example of that

[loud helm]

yea bc it’s often ragebait

[glass hornet]

The name is giving Greece

[loud helm]

and u can get banned for ragebait here

[glass hornet]

I love it

[loud helm]

but in his case

it wasn’t mainly bc of that

[muted cloud]

i think he might just be stupid

i cant tell if hes intentionally insensitive or not

[tough mantle]

Anyways

[muted cloud]

[steep ivy]

good luck!

[loud helm]

it’s intentional

[tough mantle]

I wish I applied to Carleton

[loud helm]

tbh i think they’ll accept ur appeal

carletons generous

[tough mantle]

Like I really shouldn’t have wasted my time on Brandeis 😭

[floral coral]

youre at a lovely school anyways!

[floral coral]

ive heard but they also said they were aware my dad lost his job....

[tough mantle]

Nothing can describe my hatred for Brandeis

[fickle tundra]

What is the lore

[tough mantle]

Oh yeah for sure, but Carleton deserved my application

[glass hornet]

I love this thread. I remember I was in this gc and the same thing happened, where a hs boy said something really disrespectful to women, and that gc was full of girls

And no one spoke up

That pmo

[steep ivy]

ugh

[loud helm]

he’s been walking on thin ice for a while

not sure why he thought it was funny after the 8th time

[tough mantle]

I’d have beaten him up 😭

[fringe spear]

damn bruh

thats a nice number

[floral coral]

@loud helm r u committed to bates?

[steep ivy]

i love it

[loud helm]

i am! :)

[floral coral]

[loud helm]

THANK UUU

[floral coral]

[loud helm]

[tough mantle]

How does it feel being able to visit vv

[loud helm]

i actually don’t speak there

it scares me

[tough mantle]

Its not too bad

[fringe spear]

i avoid vv

[tough mantle]

Except the math

[fringe spear]

not a fan of the vibes personally

nothing against vv regulars

[loud helm]

[tough mantle]

I just talk in anything

I like talking

[loud helm]

bates mascot is so chunky

[fringe spear]

[loud helm]

[tough mantle]

I’d hate to be in Maine

It’s too rural for me

[loud helm]

[fringe spear]

i live in fuckin los angeles bruh i’m gonna have the biggest shock of my life

[tough mantle]

I’m so excited for Davidson

[fringe spear]

[tough mantle]

I genuinely hate Kentucky with all my heart

[fringe spear]

[steep ivy]

my condolences

[fringe spear]

[tough mantle]

It’s so excluding here

[floral coral]

I HATE THE UPPER PENINSULA

[fringe spear]

[floral coral]

AHHHH

[fringe spear]

if i had been born in like texas or florida

i would not have it

[floral coral]

I HATE HAVING TO CROSS BORDERS TO HANG OUT!!!

[fringe spear]

imagine being able to cross the border

[floral coral]

basically everyone in my town has to

our city relies on canada

[steep ivy]

this is interesting to me

[fringe spear]

its weird how small the east is

like CA is just fucking massive cant get anywhere without a 10 hour drive

[steep ivy]

im sure it gets annoying tho

[tough mantle]

The most selective school in my state is a 33% 😭

[steep ivy]

fr

[tough mantle]

And half my school goes there

That’s a lie

[floral coral]

centre college?

[tough mantle]

Berea

[floral coral]

i keep hearing about new LACs

[tough mantle]

Centre is genuinely one of the shittiest schools ever

[steep ivy]

i think we have colorado college

[floral coral]

its kinda cool!

[fringe spear]

Berea if it wasn’t in Kentucky >>>>>

[steep ivy]

as most selective

[floral coral]

surely its air force no?

[tough mantle]

Oh yeah Berea is pretty goated

And in a nice area

[fringe spear]

I looked at it but I had to axe it immediately bc of location

[tough mantle]

30 minutes outside of Lexington

[steep ivy]

oh i didn’t count that in my head 😭

i guess so yeah

[floral coral]

lolol

[fringe spear]

State was really important for me in my search

I almost axed Swarthmore

[floral coral]

wow colorado college acceptance rate is lower than i expected

wait this school is lowk good i never knew that

[fringe spear]

yeah it is

[floral coral]

i probably should have applied LOL

[steep ivy]

[tough mantle]

Why did you not tell them 😭

[chrome mural]

[fringe spear]

[loud helm]

[chrome mural]

Yah twin here!

[fringe spear]

[fringe spear]

[slender void]

Colgate referenced one of my supps in their physical letter ☺️

[burnt spire]

how long does it take usually for these colleges to send out their physical letter

[slender void]

I got accepted to Colgate on Friday

[burnt spire]

did u get anything other than the letter?

[slender void]

Pomona sent their package the day before decisions released (Thursday) and i got it today too

[slender void]

A pen and a notebook

[burnt spire]

ooh thats cool

[rancid flax]

i got in to carleton on thursday (minnesota) and it was in my mailbox by monday (colorado)

[slender void]

As well as like a lil envelope inviting me to the alumni memorial scholars ceremony thing

[burnt spire]

so i guess we can expected it this week?

[burnt spire]

thats very fast

congrats!

[slender void]

Probably since Pomona is all the way in cali and I’m in Florida

[burnt spire]

bro swarthmore is in pennsylvania and im from new york

it aint that far gang

[tough mantle]

You guys got physical letters?

[slender void]

In admissions packages

Dw like i sent earlier gtown just sent me a shitty card

Ucf just didn’t send anything 😭 i rejected they ahh anyway

[burnt spire]

omg u got into gtown? congrats!

[fringe spear]

[burnt spire]

[fringe spear]

[burnt spire]

[burnt spire]

[fringe spear]

[burnt spire]

[slender void]

[glass hornet]

https://tenor.com/view/meowl-cat-owl-gif-16304756704527773823

[fringe spear]

idt you did

[burnt spire]

is ur instagram also the name aldo

[fringe spear]

yes

[burnt spire]

yeah i think i found u through the swarthmore 2030 page or somewhere

[fringe spear]

i dotn see you in my follow list

just realized the communist club at my school follows me

they’re not called that but that’s what they are

[burnt spire]

lmao what

ok i dont wanna disclose my name can i talk in dms

[fringe spear]

yeah dm me

we’re not allowed to share that here anyway

[floral coral]

i did!

i really hope i can get 11k+ in aid

if i can that makes it somewhat reasonable

bc i would be taking out 40k in student loans a year and i could work during school year and summers to make that 25k a year which is totally reasonable

[tough mantle]

THATS A SCARY AMOUNT OF DEBT

[floral coral]

it is

but i know how to work around with it

thats assuming like worst case too, minimum wage job with low hours per week

[chrome mural]

Carleton is not worth that much loan

[floral coral]

and i could probably get more aid the years following freshman year

[chrome mural]

Appeal to Carleton and schedule a meeting with the financial aid team

[floral coral]

i am

[chrome mural]

Tell them what you have to do if you don’t get more aid

Like genuinely they’re weak to pity

According to my friend

[floral coral]

ah

[chrome mural]

You can prolly get much much more aid

The best strategy is talking in zoom meeting

How’s ur F and M aid? @floral coral

[floral coral]

the same 😭

they gave merit scholarship tho

i really think my parents made a mistake on css but they dont want to let me check it

[chrome mural]

Oh dang. Ok then tell them f and m have that much money and you wanna go to a place more affordable

And tell them how much you want to go to Carlton

But taking 40k in loan and working 25k for minimum wage is gonna make ur college harder by a lot and scarier

So request for like 65k more in aid

[floral coral]

no i mean that the total unpaid amount would be 40k a year and i could work that down to 25k pretty easily

[idle wraith]

Same heree i didn’t apply to any schools out west

[floral coral]

ill try to just request 40k more in aid as thats what i really need

[chrome mural]

Either way appeal a lot and try to get more aid.

Nah appeal for more than 40k

[floral coral]

for sure yea

[chrome mural]

That way even if it’s less they’ll give you more

[idle wraith]

my biggest tip is apply to local scholarships

[chrome mural]

They save a lot of money for RD

[floral coral]

fair... i dont wanna be annoying tho 😭

[chrome mural]

And Carleton is rich

[chrome mural]

Bro that’s ur future

[idle wraith]

it’s not worth the debt

[chrome mural]

U can be annoying and should be annoying for ur future

[idle wraith]

try to appeal aid

[floral coral]

no i am appealing

i mean im not gonna ask for like a full ride LMAO

[chrome mural]

Bro trust me, convince them over zoom

[floral coral]

mhm

[chrome mural]

Just explain the circumstances and try to appeal for more money

[floral coral]

my parents already emailed them for a zoom meeting

[chrome mural]

Literally my friend had 0 reason to get more financial aid and got 11k

His family made over 800k that year

[floral coral]

and they said if we send the form showing proof my dad lost his job then theyll schedule a meeting

[floral coral]

😭

jesus lol

i dont understand why they didnt give me any aid at all, im not particularly rich

[chrome mural]

Tbf tho they gave me like 7k tho

[floral coral]

my house maybe?? but its not that expensive either (still very nice tho)

[chrome mural]

Maybe but definitely appeal

[floral coral]

even that would be massive

😭

[chrome mural]

[floral coral]

my family's house is 1 mil

[chrome mural]

I don’t know why they’re so stingy with ur aid. Appeal

[floral coral]

yeah def

[chrome mural]

Carleton financial aid is supposed to be goated

[floral coral]

i really think my parents made a mistake on css

ill try to check covertly bc theyll get mad if i check with them knowing

[chrome mural]

Prolly, yeah check and talk to Carleton

Also you should be the one emailing Carleton

They respond to students quicker and are usually more flexible

[floral coral]

i know but my parents would never let me

im kinda seen as inferior to them... lol

[chrome mural]

I would recommend emailing. You don’t need ur parents to know

At the end of the day if it’s cheaper it’s better for ur parents too

[floral coral]

ok!

[chrome mural]

I can also ask my friend how he appealed for aid

[floral coral]

tysm tho 🙏

[chrome mural]

The crazy thing is he never applied for financial aid to get into Carleton

[floral coral]

ur a life saver

[chrome mural]

No worries

[chrome mural]

If Carleton gave me aid, they should def give you much more

[split bough]

am i correct in the assumption that if competitive people really stress me out i should probably pick smith over wellesley? or is wellesley not as competitive as people say

[chrome mural]

I told people at Carleton I got aid and people thought I was trolling them before

[chrome mural]

Both are great options

[loud helm]

wellesley has notorious grade deflation

maybe it’s changed but

i am not sure

[split bough]

that's what i've heard

i love learning and i think i would do well academically, just maybe not mental health-wise lol

[floral coral]

hopefully!

[loud helm]

wat u majoring in

[tough mantle]

I’m the biggest procrastinator ever; grade deflation is gonna hit me like a truck

[low axle]

YES

[low axle]

Wells rn but idk fr

[winged mesa]

i am lucky i do, i am just hella confused about the decisions i got, because literally three of the hardest four schools I got results from accepted me and basically everyone else waitlisted or rejected me

[pallid stratus]

i thought top colleges didn’t have honors cuz everyone is smart

[glass hornet]

Yeah me either 😭

[glass hornet]

Its honors for top 200 apparently

[pallid stratus]

wait what’s it actually called

[winged mesa]

[slender void]

Alumni memorial scholars

[glass hornet]

[pallid stratus]
