glacial glen
#

lmao u gotta practice ur penn face

#

i heard it actually exists

split fulcrum
#

wats that

glacial glen
#

wait

#

u havent heard

split fulcrum
#

nope

glacial glen
#

i think its mostly a conspiracy (not sure) but some ppl say upenn is ultra competitive and stuff for internships and opportunities and ppl will basically keep a straight face and keep interactions professional to avoid developing personal relationships, hence the penn face.

faint stag
glacial glen
#

i doubt its true there are fs so many real humans

split fulcrum
#

oh

faint stag
#

when i’ve never talked to them or met them

split fulcrum
#

when i visited it didnt seem like that ngl

faint stag
#

like holy fan

split fulcrum
#

i did get into vagelos mls thooo

glacial glen
#

i heard ppl also say abt me secretly "he did so much just to only go to ut austin"

#

i also heard someone say "he made isef for no reason" which is insane

knotty sentinel
#

this may be unrelated but somebody called me at like 4 30 pm today and i didnt pick up

#

no voice mail

knotty sentinel
#

not from cambridge unfortunately and i never get called

glacial glen
#

what umber

#

oh shoot

knotty sentinel
#

glacial glen
#

its good u havent gotten a rejection letter tho

#

praying for u

knotty sentinel
#

a small amount of acceptances went out and a heap of rejections

#

onwards to stage two 😦

split fulcrum
#

i wish i applied to penn state

i probably would never shut up about it

glacial glen

Lmao that would be so funny

faint stag

glacial glen
glacial glen
#

Prolly cuz I got rly good hearing 😭😭

glacial glen
#

Serious question tho would yall choose vandy full pay over ut Austin in state tuition for pre med? My parents are agreed to pay but I don’t think my mom 100% wants to

split fulcrum
#

no

glacial glen

#

wherever the money goes, you should go

unless you have a good scholarship and the cost aint too bad

Bc I’m full pay vandy

Noo aid

knotty sentinel
#

the withdraw button is gone and all my stuff is still here

#

but i am not rejected nor accepted

glacial glen
#

Was it gone before

knotty sentinel
#

nope they’re processing it now

#

should i call back that number LOL it came at the same time redditors got called

inland sun
knotty sentinel
#

but it’s not in massachusetts it’s local 😵‍💫

inland sun
#

if not i guess a lot of it is environment/fit based

knotty sentinel
#

now i will have a mentally disturbed sleep tonight happythumbsup

knotty sentinel
#

fah

#

why did this have to be today

#

i was starting to forget about it

#

and they bait me with a phone call and won't even reject me

#

but they don't accept me

inland sun
knotty sentinel
#

oh i saw that on reddit ty for confirming

#

i’m curious how much of the original list is still left

#

this is going to be embarrassing but i had voicemail turned off

#

🥀 🥀 🥀 🥀 🥀

glacial glen
#

Ima try to get in a top med school (free) or go back to Texas for med school worst case 😭😭

#

Idk if it’s worth it

#

My mom said either she pays 400k for under or med school not both

dawn badge
#

fr

#

my parents told me if i go to an expensive undergrad then i cant go to an expensive masters

#

bc they need to retire at some point

#

luckily im only paying like 20k for ugrad

inland sun
glacial glen

still waitlisted

rain jetty

knotty sentinel
#

when was the next round last yr

#

also are rounds sort by competitiveness or random

dim raptor
#

Well like the first round is based on data from the May 1st deadline

#

So it’s usually the biggest and then depending on how many of the people off the waitlist choose to enroll they’ll start opening more spots in the coming weeks

knotty sentinel
#

what abt the rejects

dim raptor
#

It’s region dependent a lot of the time too so you can’t really predict

#

Different AOs might have slightly different timelines

knotty sentinel
#

as soon as i saw the reddit post i was fully expecting a rejection

#

i got a suspicious call at 4 pm and didnt open it

#

no voicemail

#

its been 3 months since i got a suspicious call and that was from the hospital

dim raptor
#

Well if the call was abt acceptance then it would be in the portal too no?

#

Maybe ask your counselor if they heard back too

knotty sentinel
#

counselor isnt in the office right now

#

as in this week

dim raptor
#

😭😭

knotty sentinel
dim raptor
#

Tmrw

knotty sentinel
#

i'm expecting they will call back at the same time tmr if it's an AO

dim raptor
#

I guess but doesn’t hurt calling back

knotty sentinel
#

but i have an ap exam then i have to spend the next 3 hours getting ready for prom

dim raptor
#

What’s more important prom or Harvard /s

knotty sentinel
#

lowk this dress was expensive

#

but tuition difference wld be more expensive 🙄

dim raptor
#

The call is gonna take like 10 mins max I’m sure you can squeeze it in

knotty sentinel
#

i'll try there might be background noise tho

#

also 90% chance it's not an AO 💔

#

i just find the timing rlly odd

toxic jungle
#

maybe it was

#

what other schools are you waiting for?

knotty sentinel
#

yale and columbia and cornell

toxic jungle
#

I thing chances for columbia and cornell are high! I declined their offers and im waiting on hyps + upenn!

dim raptor
#

You can always go to a HYPS residency

toxic jungle
#

the summer program

#

i went there and all my friends got into atleast 3/5 hypsms so i feel really hopefully

#

maybe survivorship bias though

knotty sentinel

i hope this means ppl picked them over harv and yale

sweet pulsar

harvard added a grade cap so I can imagine that was unpopular

warm tundra

if there arent any updates tmr, then its wraps

clear lynx
#

Otherwise vandy probs

formal cosmos
#

mit being very brutal may not make it ideal for every1 regardless of the ROI

formal cosmos
formal cosmos
#

yale i can see why but location is very bad

#

princeton lack of resources + grade deflation

clear lynx
formal cosmos
#

maybe but the fact they got into columbia i think they should have considered it more or asked for aid

#

u need to be making a LOT of money to not get any aid from columbia

#

the resources are just next level i know ppl who did premed there as well as ppl who did at stanford that ended up not going to med school and going straight to pe healthcare and making bank

clear lynx
formal cosmos
#

princeton and columbia usually give the best aid out of all the t10's

#

i just wouldnt go princeton if ur premed

#

however i will say umiami is really strong for premed i know a LOT of ppl from there who ended up going to a t5 med school

glacial glen
formal cosmos
#

im just saying that a school like columbia (even with recent controversies) is simply too good to pass down so easily. if you factor total resources as well as location ur prob going to get best ROI out of all top colleges

formal cosmos
formal cosmos
glacial glen
formal cosmos
#

whats ur price?

glacial glen
#

90k/yr

formal cosmos
#

yea nah

glacial glen
#

35k at ut

formal cosmos
#

unless u get a scholarship

#

a lot of the lower t20's i wouldnt rec full pay

glacial glen
#

yeah unfortunately i got off the waitlist so no merit scholarship for me

formal cosmos
#

if it's not an ivy or top in certain fields no point paying 100k

glacial glen
formal cosmos
#

dont think ppl realize how brutal the job market is

#

you want to ideally get smth in undergrad because post grad is truly brutal

#

if ur not top tier level talnet which most ppl arent its gonna be really hard to stand out

#

going to a top college can help that

#

most jobs dont really factor that in tho

glacial glen
#

UT is still decently prestigious though id say

formal cosmos
#

UT is really good tho

#

as long as there isnt insane grade deflation

#

i know people at princeton who are literally cooked

glacial glen
#

theres slight deflation

formal cosmos
#

gpa is in the gutters and didnt make any med school past 2 years

glacial glen
#

huge class size

formal cosmos
#

now re-applying

glacial glen
#

yeah princeton premed is like

#

cooked 😭

formal cosmos
#

i also know someone who got into columbia princeton jhu

#

they ended up making columbia and are now at a t5 med school

glacial glen
#

damnn

formal cosmos
glacial glen
#

columbia has deflation tho no?

formal cosmos
#

columbia is prob t3-t5

#

i dont think so

glacial glen
#

i think it depends on the person ngl

formal cosmos
#

maybe for engineering

glacial glen
formal cosmos
#

cornell and princeton have

glacial glen
#

same for washu in st louis

formal cosmos
#

maybe but not for the price

glacial glen
#

idk washu in st louis got insane med school matriculation

#

theyre kinda known for premed

formal cosmos
#

like when i see ppl hype up ucla

#

i get rlly confused

#

if ur premed dont go ucla unless ur in state

glacial glen
#

LMAO fr

#

ucla out of state is cooked

formal cosmos
#

its so bad and difficlt

glacial glen
#

my friend did that

formal cosmos
#

u cant even get classes

#

resources are so bad

glacial glen
formal cosmos
#

its only worth in state

formal cosmos
glacial glen
#

i feel like that may be why stanford waitlist might be harder this yr

formal cosmos
#

i know people who turend down stanford this year

glacial glen
#

o

formal cosmos
#

for columbia duke yale dartmouth

#

because they didnt want to go across the country

glacial glen
#

dang what

#

oh makes sense

formal cosmos
glacial glen
formal cosmos
#

ig

#

if i had to guess id say less ppl off wl for major schools this year than usual

#

think columbia duke princeton jhu stanford yale

glacial glen
#

dude JHU waitlist cooked

#

like beyond cooked

formal cosmos
#

yea i heard

glacial glen
#

its just over for that

#

i aint getting off

but i actually talk to a lot of pp who got into a lot of top colleges from a similar ec

glacial glen
#

MIT?

formal cosmos
glacial glen
#

i see

formal cosmos
#

i think a lot of top ppl just picked columia

#

despite what a lot of ppl are saying abt controversies in the past

glacial glen
formal cosmos
#

it will be brushed and the ranking will be back prob

#

i know a few ppl who got into harvard this year

#

that picked columbia over it

#

i think their yield was higher this year than expected

#

but yea honestly id say a lot of top schools their wl wont be as good as ppl expect

#

that's just what i think tho dont take it for certain

#

but tbh no1 really knows anything its all speculative

livid ore
#

yeah

#

the waitlists this year seem unusually slow

formal cosmos
#

yea i mean

#

im not sure if these colleges announced before

#

but like i know a lot of ppl who got into top colleges and more than expceted ended up going to columbia and even duke

# toxic jungle Thanks for that reassurance!

yea honestly ur fine im not too familiar with stmaps for UMIAMI im assuming its similar as GT stamps which i heard a lot about online and heard a lot of great things + very hard to get

#

but imo if ur locked for premed ull do fine at umiami unlike other places like ucla it wont be a bloodbath in terms of getting ec's, research and other stuff. plus u wont have the stress knowing you spent X amnt of money during ur undergrad and can live a more relaxed lifestyle.

not rlly. each applicant taken off the waitlist is taken off for a reason. i think that’s what makes waitlists so hard because u never know what the admissions office needs from the waitlist. u could have done everything right yet ur not what they need to complete the class

Wait guys does this mean rejection

#

Thank you for your patience and interest in remaining on the waitlist. We know that being on a waitlist can be both stressful and uncertain, and we want to acknowledge the time and thought you have invested in your college search process. We sincerely appreciate your continued interest in Babson College and the care you have taken in considering us as part of your plans.

At this time, we want to be transparent: it is highly unlikely that we will be able to admit students from the waitlist this year. While we have made the decision to keep the waitlist open, we do not anticipate offering admission to any students for either Fall or January at this point in time. That said, we will continue to closely monitor our incoming class and forecast our future enrollment needs should circumstances change.

We know that you have placed an enrollment deposit elsewhere. If you would prefer to remove yourself from any future waitlist consideration, please let us know by filling out the waitlist reply form here and selecting "No" to "Are you interested in keeping your position on Babson's waitlist?" Otherwise, your status on the waitlist will not change and we will update you on any progress in the coming weeks.

We appreciate your patience and understanding, and we wish you all the best as you take the next steps in your educational journey.

Warm regards,

Office of Undergraduate Admission
Babson College

#

No

#

It's basically them trying to get as many ppl off the waitlist as possible before they have to make a decision that might not yield

#

Because they'll probably only let in like 1

velvet merlin
#

The waitlist is still moving right

weak gorge
#

No they're saying it might not

#

They're not rejecting you but it's a soft rejection

do yall think columbia had a high yield this year im so shocked the waitlist didnt move today lol

Yo if anyone here commited to Babson and is waiting for waitlists pls uncommit from Babson with no hesitation

#

wait let me just clarify

#

normally if yield is high waitlists won’t move as quickly?

hollow adder
#

if the college has their enrollment to a point they dont need u, they wont take u

meaning waitlists move slower

#

my friend who went to visitas and bulldog days said all those ppl also got into columbia and werent going

#

but also thats like the sample size least likely to attend

livid ore

or their yield was higher than expected

knotty sentinel
#

idt this redditor is telling the truth completely

#

theyre def taking less than last yr tho

hollow adder

u know that right

#

each person who doesn’t go doesn’t mean a spot opens

knotty sentinel
#

well yea all schools are like that

#

but usually columbia has a couple spots

velvet mesa
#

This is an ivy league school we are talking about

#

💀

knotty sentinel
#

columbia taking no one off would be highly unusual just saying

sweet pulsar
#

they probably tried and failed to guess the yield correctly

solid quarry
#

Well, one of the schools near me (the feeder one) got 8 students into Columbia this year, so yeah, I think their yield rate is just high

generally, cmu is very specialized in cs which makes it amazing at it, but some ppl have other interests
so for a more well-rounded education they may opt for another top school (especially ivies)

its entirely dependent on you i guess

cmu name will carry you in tech but columbia's name will carry you everywhere

theres some jobs where quality of education does matter

#

cus lets say youre in business then employers r gonna choose wharton over ou

modern arrow
#

and liberty is liberty

glossy granite
#

is it still respectful after samantha fulnecky

#

its lost all academic credibility

#

an A at some schools are not the same as others

modern arrow
#

come on

#

use some sense

modern arrow
glossy granite
#

this should reflect badly on the school’s standards and qualify of education

modern arrow
glossy granite
#

so then OU is not respectable anymore after they gave her an A and fired a teacher for not doing so

modern arrow
#

but that’s just one case that caught national attention, that happens at many other schools

glossy granite
#

poor education standards and firing teachers = not respectable institution

modern arrow
#

you’re not understanding

glossy granite
modern arrow
#

i don’t find those schools respectable

#

well i do

#

because they’re valid institutions

#

even if i personally wouldn’t attend them because of my own beliefs

#

but you will never understand someone else’s personal situation that led them to choose those schools

#

whether it’s for financial reasons, staying close to home because of their family/work, etc

#

going to one university doesn’t automatically make a worker ineligible lol

glossy granite
#

okay youre right, i think that other factors like previous internships and experiences should also matter to employers

#

but the job market is also so competitive and i dont see any reason an employer should have to choose liberty over candidates with stronger qualifications or institution to better prepare them or give them knowledge

#

like if two candidates have the exact same resume but diff colleges then theyll always choose most schools over liberty bc they cant be confident that applicants from there are truly prepared by the lack of education

modern arrow
#

that would never happen

#

and you’re shifting your point from “liberty and OU have no respect” to “they have less than t20s” like obv

#

😭

glossy granite
#

well i still think liberty and ou have no respect education wise if thats what youre asking

#

i dont trust those institutions to educate a potential candidate for a job or give them the foundational skills they may need

#

and what about the colleges that use prageru which is js straight misinformation?

clear lynx
#

Hi guys

#

glossy granite
#

doesnt rlly change the fact that colleges r still using it

modern arrow
#

just admit you were wrong 😑

glossy granite
#

huh

hollow adder
#

is what ur argument sounds like

glossy granite
#

ok well i was faulty in not considering that some ppl r stuck to certain colleges due to finances so that was my bad

glossy granite
#

and i feel like an institutuon firing teachers for not giving students As is a pretty reasonable reason?

#

im not even judging based off pristege, just unethical university practices that cast doubt in their own educational quality

hollow adder
#

so for the thousands of students who go to OU for education and make something of it they just shouldn’t be given respect?

glossy granite
#

i never said i dont respect the students

hollow adder
glossy granite
#

well i think everyone deserves respect but not the institutuon for its unethical practices

#

but the people who go there do and i do know not everyone who goes there agrees with what happened

clear lynx
#

I’m against liberty U as a whole, but it’s an accredited uni for sure and does care about academics too

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

glossy granite
#

yeah thats fair

#

i think i was too harsh in my wording and i was being too close minded

#

experience someone has should also matter alongside with their education

#

and jobs shouldnt reject a person soley because of where they webt because theres also financial and personal reasons. i shouldnt have blamed OU graduates on what their institution did

modern arrow
#

yeah

clear lynx
modern arrow
#

also the OU administration is obviously full of people with no backbone

glossy granite
#

i do respect the students and i wasnt trying to make it seem like i disrespect the people or think any less of them

modern arrow
#

like many other uni administrations

glossy granite
#

sorry i just mixed up the students into their own institution

clear lynx
#

What’s with the OU hate

#

Just curious have only heard good things from my friend

glossy granite
glossy granite
# clear lynx What’s with the OU hate

i just dont like them after they fired a teacher for failing a students paper and i do think it can reflect badly on a schools education if students who turn in bad work r not given grades that match up with the quality of their worj

I’m curious

#

My friend was considering the flight school 🙂 but decided on embry-riddle which imo sounds more fun cuz Florida

glossy granite
modern arrow
#

It was a TA iirc

glossy granite
#

well your friend will be successful wherever they go

#

my point was that i dont believe that certain institutions deserve academic respect based on whether or not they have good qualify of education but i accidentally associated it with the people who go there and the graduates

faint stag
glossy granite
#

i was trying to say that some colleges will just prepare you better than others and its a valid practice when employers choose some grads over others bc of that

clear lynx
#

Obviously stupid ruling, not a first amendment violation

#

But I don’t think this one example should lead to questioning of the entire schools academic reputation

livid ore
glossy granite
#

yeah thats fine, i dont think the students should get blame for what their school did and i know thats out of their control

#

i think it just shows that the school doesnt hold students to very high academic standards or at least in some scenarios

#

but i also shouldnt have jumped the gun 😓

clear lynx
glossy granite
#

ohh i didnt think of it that way

#

im glad they pay attention to their appeals process and have that in place

clear lynx
#

This appeals process is not just for assignments like these but for other classes too

#

so even if one case went the other way, systems are in place and are actually functioning 👍

glossy granite

yeah sorry

i shouldnt have generalized the school so much
