#Waitlist WINNING
1 messages · Page 5 of 1
so where r u committing rn?
i honestly dk im committed to UT Austin in state tuition
but the thing is my parents r willing to pay for vandy
and i love their culture idk
Wait ur also from Illinois?
WHAT at ur school?
LMAO fr ur too good u got a straight acceptance
no lowk at this random other wv school
locally famous ig
i got haterz
bro ur better than me
u beat some crazy odds
thank god my harvard isn’t out yet
#alive
or is it in waves
waves
@rain jetty what is the reject experience do they just send u an email or
bruh ignore those bums theyre just jealous
I also got haters
no matter what there will always be haters sadly
im the hater in question
LMAO i still went 0/10
me: 4/20
penn face
penn state
wats that
nope
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.
yeah tbh i think it’s embarrassing for them to gaf this much abt my apps
i doubt its true there are fs so many real humans
oh
when i’ve never talked to them or met them
when i visited it didnt seem like that ngl
like holy fan
i did get into vagelos mls thooo
LMAO fr they r the ones that will be stalking ur linkedin in 10 years
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
this may be unrelated but somebody called me at like 4 30 pm today and i didnt pick up
no voice mail
YO WAIT
not from cambridge unfortunately and i never get called
but no update
a small amount of acceptances went out and a heap of rejections
onwards to stage two 😦
i wish i applied to penn state
wouldve been hilarious if i got rejected
i probably would never shut up about it
Lmao that would be so funny
lowkey sad for them lmfaoooo
obsessed
wow u made isef?
Yeah I went last year
They thought I couldn’t hear
Prolly cuz I got rly good hearing 😭😭
genuinely how am i not rejected
but also this is like limbo till june which is 😬
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
no
They might still be considering u which is good!
wherever the money goes, you should go
unless you have a good scholarship and the cost aint too bad
i’m also in-state for texas! what’s your major?
Neuroscience
- post-grad plans like if you’re pre-med or pre-law then i def wouldn’t
ooooooh
Congrats on Yale!
lwk that’s a tough decision omg 😭
Yeah it’s so hard
thank you!
the withdraw button is gone and all my stuff is still here
but i am not rejected nor accepted
Wait…
Was it gone before
nope they’re processing it now
should i call back that number LOL it came at the same time redditors got called
are you pre-med?
but it’s not in massachusetts it’s local 😵💫
if not i guess a lot of it is environment/fit based
now i will have a mentally disturbed sleep tonight 
i personally wouldnt
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
not sure if this is helpful or not but i saw someone who got accepted say they have till may 22nd at 5pm to decide! so you’re probably right if they do need to pull more it’s probably not till june but hopefully that info helps
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
🥀 🥀 🥀 🥀 🥀
Yes
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
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
hmmm maybe UT then as long as you’re not vehemently unhappy with it
Dang this is a good deal
Ya I’m only hesitant on UT bc so many ppl from my hs going who didn’t do as much as me and I had auto admission since freshman year 😭😭 it doesn’t feel as rewarding but I don’t want my ego to take over
no yeah i 100000% understand
definitely a difficult decision 💔
yea my brother lowk cooked me bc his costed like 300k
lol the withdraw button is gone from harvard
ah i see
did u get in
still waitlisted
email w/ application update, letter in application
you might not be in this round
when was the next round last yr
also are rounds sort by competitiveness or random
It’s neither
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
what abt the rejects
They don’t rank applicants so probably not a bad sign
It’s region dependent a lot of the time too so you can’t really predict
Different AOs might have slightly different timelines
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
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
😭😭
nothing in the portal no change other than withdraw disappearing
Maybe call back the number
Tmrw
i'm expecting they will call back at the same time tmr if it's an AO
I guess but doesn’t hurt calling back
but i have an ap exam then i have to spend the next 3 hours getting ready for prom
What’s more important prom or Harvard /s
The call is gonna take like 10 mins max I’m sure you can squeeze it in
i'll try there might be background noise tho
also 90% chance it's not an AO 💔
i just find the timing rlly odd
0.0
maybe it was
what other schools are you waiting for?
yale and columbia and cornell
I thing chances for columbia and cornell are high! I declined their offers and im waiting on hyps + upenn!
Where are you committed rn
ur more of a waitlist warrior than i am 😭
cmu cs
cmu cs is top though?
i dont wanna be locked into a 55 hr work week 💔
I don’t think the career outcomes are gonna be different between CMU and ivies even for CS
i sort of agree, though community at a school like yale/columbia is cracked
haha i was very happy with my results! Got in duke, columbia, cornell and ofc committed to UMiami Stamps as i think a full ride beats any offer (HYPS is exception, MIT rejected me ea so we DONT talk about it)
for me it is entirely a quality of life thing
damn i wld have just gone to columbia
but tyty for the clutch
pls release me
and i get med school covered at UM
into the accepted applicants pool i mean 😇
did ur waitlist update come out
for harv
Wow that’s a good deal
i dont think so?
Like guarenteed admit?
harvard waitlisted like 7 kids from my school
my senior class has 200 kids
yes!
check ur portal
Stamps scholar is one of the best scholarships
i was the only wl from my class but its a public
That’s prob better than HYPS too tbh
we had one acceptance who committed to yale instead
You can always go to a HYPS residency
do you know ssp
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
ill check harvard portal rn
though its js anyone who clicked they want to remain on the waitlist
which is like a huge number
any suspicious phone calls
idk letme check
harvard also waitlists a lot of people tbh
@stray mango quick q but why brown over CMU for ai/ml
i think school culture?
idr
culture + major
at cmu i was a stats major
at brown i can focus on cs
and i hate stress culture + pressure
i wld have made the same choice as u btw
any wl updates for stanford??
probably won’t move this year tbh
I see
stanford had higher yield this year
how do u know
i hope this means ppl picked them over harv and yale
I mean probably 😭
harvard added a grade cap so I can imagine that was unpopular
hmm
well ig we'll know tmr
if there arent any updates tmr, then its wraps
its form the person who was calling last year
@silk scroll im gonna ping u every time
bruh...
i thought the wl at stanford was "good"
dawg 😭 cracked kids worrying abt schools, first world problems type shi
Was 10% last year smh
like 5%
plus i know they're more picky with who they wl
30 ppl
no cracked kid here i am ivyless 😛
it was like around 60
high key stanford just more appealing fs
573 accepted waitlist 57 accepted
yea thats what i was thinking
But then you have years where it’s 0 so
cmu CS is #1 bro...
shit blows any ivy CS out of the water
i enjoy my social life 💔
the past 3 years had been solid tho
i think one had like 15% AR
even
nah screw social life big tech offer type shi
it fluctuates every year
might be the higher emphasis on ai and tech now more than ever
or generally just that Stanford is good at a lot of things
Yeah but previous years aren’t rly indicative of anything unfortunately
yea i know but its at least some ppl every year
no way bro
I’d imagine it’ll still be a few people
like 5
thought berkley was better
Everyone in this chat 💯
all you
Love u
😭
im not luka twin
its not looking good
why are we even considering Harvard atp
guaranteed med school no mcat is tough as hell
Omg I’m cryain 😭
@lament jacinth is not picking up calls rn :(
Im dating that person!
Fake and gay
🪞
LFMAOOFAOOAO
thats my favorite lavender couple that actually dates each other
by lavender i mean isabella is extremely gay
I fear after a year ive finally been able to determine that that girl is straight af
I was also of your opinion for a long while
She had us playing the age old classic. “Is she gay or just autistic”
im glad that the risk paid off
hit em with the "rizz em with the tism"
Ngl I’d go UT esp if pre med
Otherwise vandy probs
honetly should have went to columbia over stamps. harvard, stanford and columbia are 3 schools that are prob worth it ROI in terms of connections and resources
mit being very brutal may not make it ideal for every1 regardless of the ROI
They want to do premed
not attending columbia because i got into another t5 school that is closer to me but p sure the aid is very generous
all 3 are great for premed
yale i can see why but location is very bad
princeton lack of resources + grade deflation
Yes but premed for free and potentially med school can free is really good
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
Assets can hurt fin aid offers
thats true but that would be at any college then
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
ty for the advice!
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
yea UT is also p good
this is true
true true the ROI isnt worth it for vandy ig
wouldnt go vandy
whats ur price?
90k/yr
yea nah
35k at ut
yeah unfortunately i got off the waitlist so no merit scholarship for me
if it's not an ivy or top in certain fields no point paying 100k
do u think duke is worth paying this
yea
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
true but im applying to med school afterward
UT is still decently prestigious though id say
UT is really good tho
as long as there isnt insane grade deflation
i know people at princeton who are literally cooked
theres slight deflation
gpa is in the gutters and didnt make any med school past 2 years
huge class size
now re-applying
i also know someone who got into columbia princeton jhu
they ended up making columbia and are now at a t5 med school
damnn
id say imo stanford or harvard are best for premed
columbia has deflation tho no?
i think it depends on the person ngl
maybe for engineering
vandy is up there too
cornell and princeton have
same for washu in st louis
maybe but not for the price
idk washu in st louis got insane med school matriculation
theyre kinda known for premed
like when i see ppl hype up ucla
i get rlly confused
if ur premed dont go ucla unless ur in state
its so bad and difficlt
my friend did that
ya prolly stanny rn cuz harvards new policy next year
its only worth in state
yea thats ture
i feel like that may be why stanford waitlist might be harder this yr
i know people who turend down stanford this year
o
it was cooked last year too
waitlists in general r so rng
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
yea i heard
columbia waitlist is so cooked
wasnt it good last yr
i got in but i went to another t5 school because of location (closer to home)
which one if u dont mind sharing
they decrease class size by 125 and prob overadmitted
but i actually talk to a lot of pp who got into a lot of top colleges from a similar ec
MIT?
think harvard mit stanford
i see
i dont think they overadmitted
i think a lot of top ppl just picked columia
despite what a lot of ppl are saying abt controversies in the past
thats impressive congrats!
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
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
CONGRATS WAITLIDT WARRIORS
based on what?
the best premed school is often the school that is the cheapest for you
is berkeley still accepting off of the waitlist or is it slowing down now...
do they do it in waves?
is Purdue still accepting off waitlist
some guy on reddit called purdue and they said they're still planning on admitting ppl off the waitlist
they didn't give any timelines tho
i can ask my friend who was WLd
i think she might’ve already been released tho
or maybe that was haverford
i know she was WLd from both tho
what email is it?
“Update about the hamilton wait list”
Did u?!
Ohb ur friend
did cmu waitlists move?
im getting wau too restless rn i need one of my waitlists to move
does anyone have any info abt gatech umich or cmu for engineering internationals
im dying over here
Correct
Thanks for that reassurance!
@inland sun did your friend gets
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.
Any news for Columbia? 🥹
i would like to know this as well
how did harvard go
still waitlisted 😵💫
jhu
guys question
in a loci did u repeat some of the why xyz college things that u put in ur supps or mention new things?
do we expect they'll read the whole app again and then the loci
just had an epiphany and now im 😵💫
likely didnt review the application yet or they havent come to conclusion yet
repeat a few and go into more detail ab them
most likely coming out around 5pm est
🦁
and then rolling out in waves after that
1 why us, 1 awards/academic update, 1 ecs update paragraph
They usually leave voicemails
How many email reloads are yall at for today I think I’m around 11 now
what are u waiting for?
besides columbia
i had voicemail off 💔
duke waitlist moved very well this year afaik
2 waves alr happened
they’ll just call again probably if it was them
ur voicemail off is not going to impact ur decision
nah they’ll be like “damn their voicemail is off”
“well time to reject them because they thought our unknown number call was spam 😡😡😡💢
Cornell brown CMU
bro ik i shouldnt be but im hoping so much
but also ik how unlikely it is
i think all wl ppl know it’s best to move on but there’s still a part of me that just wants that school
yeah exactly
she said “Also Hamilton just asked me if I wanted to stay on and if I have any info for them”
Sooooo Columbia?
i think probably 5pm or later
you didn’t master bates bro
put the fries in the bag
yesterdays phone number aborts the call as soon as i dial so safe to say not an ao
🌽 🇱
harvard ppl rise up
wait im scared why 💔 what did i miss
like its just not moving 😭
yeah... i lowkey feel so terrible that im being delusional that theyll want me
within the next 2 weeks 💀
nah anything can happen
has anyone gotten anything from columbia
only thing we can do is pray and get lucky 😭
waitlists r so much rng tbh
according to the waistlist tracker yes
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
don’t look at this
it’s bullshit
it’s a vibe coded website that addicted a2c reddit members made
idk until i see ppl make a post about it im not believing anything
I WAS BOUTA SAY LOL
the ui gives vibe coded
lmao ppl def false report on this
any columbia?
Rejected off Chicago waitlist
anybody know anything about extended WL at georgetown? i applied business
anyone know anything abt cornell, umich, rice, or unc chapel hill wl for COE
3 friends of mine got of georgetown waitlist
Does anyone know anything abt nyu stern
can u daydream i wake up with a million dollars under my pillow 🙏
u an me both
Pitzer don’t pmo and just tell me bruh 💔💔
uci appeal denied 💀
@copper tartan i think uchicago sent info out to waitlisted students today, did you get in?
lots of ppl were rejected off waitlist today
@clear lynx
Anything from Columbia???
ucsd is finally moving!!
Lowk weird it didn’t come out today
Maybe their yield was higher than expected
No it’s bcs they’re taking a bunch of people off the waitlist so it’s taking a while to process
Yea I said earlier I go rejected
Fr
CMU waitlist not moving for my school, Chicago is over, only have 3 left
No GT waitlists this yr I guess
i lit didn't write the LOCI so im not expecting to get off but has anyone seen confirmed pton movement lol
i lowk think so
columbia had the highest number of applicants ever
extended waitlist to gtown.. just reject me
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
Oh so they’re basically telling me to not get my hopes up?
The waitlist is still moving right
do yall think columbia had a high yield this year im so shocked the waitlist didnt move today lol
Wait they basically said the class is full rn right?
yeah
they're saying like
unless someone gets in off like
harvard wl
you wont get in
Oh ok so basically someone gets in off a waitlist and uncommits then I’ll have a chance?
yeag
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?
correct
if the college has their enrollment to a point they dont need u, they wont take u
meaning waitlists move slower
Nah I didn’t I’m going to Brandeis they gave me 52,000 a year
YOOO CGS
thats huge
does this mean you are going from udub '30 to brandeis '30
massachusetts dream state tbh
oh i gave up my spot at dietrich so hopefully cmu considers that. they are processing my withdrawal. idk how it works tho
yeah
awesome
Low-key best state. You can feel how many educational institutions there are just being there
its a very competitive state for college apps tho
boston my dream city
Same tho
massachusetts and cali prob get the most applis than any toher state
boston and nyc
yea, big cities + good schools
hottest cities
not temperature
😍
moving to nyc after i graduate to find me a finance bro
i declined my waitlist offer good luck
wait guys will jhu send out rejections like uchicago or nah...
it’s ok we can get litty in nc tg 😛😛
Off of UCSD waitlist for cs
they admitted a bunch off the waitlist this year
are u doing cs at ut?
yeah neuro+cs (integrated cs degree)
prob not gonna accept ucsd tho cause I got ut austin cs already
wait icl, i got into ut for cs+ling
i dont think the cs+x programs are integrated at all
They might have over enrolled but thank you ❤️
my friend is a first year doing cs+ling and he told me that half of his classes are random linguistics courses that dont relate to cs at all
unless u are interested in neuro as much as cs, i would recommend pure cs
while also considering cost n stuff
just my opinion tho, from someone who also got into UT for cs+x
yeah i am considering on transferring into pure cs (hopefully it's easier or I am just hinking of going into a profession related to brain-computer interface with brainchips
R u cs + neuro?
ok i also attended a UT info session abt cs + x and they said transfer is not guaranteed and u basically need to apply like every other student there
yeah
Im not rlly sad i can’t afford to go anyways 😮💨
ic. i think like neuralink is a potential career path then
yea thats cool
Do yall think there should be waitlist movement for Babson this year
Ik class is already full
O that’s cool I’m neuro
But based on current trends
expect nothing teebeeaytch
if they say it’s full take it at face value
ur gna hurt urself in the long run if u hold onto it
U right
nice at what college?
Hustlers university
les goooooooooooooo
Gonna get that right mentality
How bad is it I forgot my cap for a graduation tommrow but its not for my home high school
what does this mean
wdym home high school
last year most of their decision were after the 15th though, a wave may come monday throughout june mostly
So I am an online student for ncssm
And then theres my home highschool
So I have 2 graduations
oh interesting
well it shouldnt be that bad if it only affects 1 of the graduations lol
u have another chance to do graduation
no cap
ut austin
im still considering vandy though as I got off WL recently
future entrepeneur btw
nice ik a friend i just met at ut austin who is doing that at ut austin
oh congrats !!!
july 1-2
WOW
How much is the coa?
dude its cooked
90k per year
thats why ill prolly stay UT
Goddamn my parents made me turn down VTech at 65k per year
Why’s college so expensive these days
these collegfes need to fking chill bro
Like back in the day it was like 5k
we get it u want money but dont u already have billionaire donors 😭
dude even when my sister attended a decade ago these t20s were 40k
and now theyre the same tuition as ivies
Ong
Bro what that’s so chill
godamn
yeah its actually reasonable
I think everyone is getting off the waitlist these days simply because a lotta ppl can’t afford the price
doesn't matter how u start. all what matters is how u end
Facts
because vt is a public school and you’re oos 😭
Still tho it shouldn’t be that high
extended WL? I just got extended WL today the regular waitlist period is done i believe
Nah but my friend got off nyu cas
LFG
yea a few ppl
why are you shocked?
the college does not have to take anyone off today
overadmitted
yes it’s high key wraps
bro is desperate
take this with a grain of salt but my acquaintance at andover said he got called hy an AO about a week or so ago saying that he would get off the waitlist officially later
I mean tbf this happens rlly often with waitlists so idk if the grain of salt is needed
Happened with me with georgetown bc they basically wanna know if you’re gonna go if they admit you because they want good waitlist yield
did any columbia decisions start coming out
No as far as we know
U right
speaking of theories
apparently there was a fafsa freeze from April 26 to may 3?
I feel like thats not very valid though
because some schools alr started moving during the period
Anyone know where I can find a ucla admitted students chat?
i think so, one girl got of the waitlist like 2-3 days ago
no yea for sure i just dont know if my andover acquaintance is lying or not cuz hes a lil odd sometimes lol
JHU waitlist is so cooked
has anyone gotten off caltech wl since the wave two weeks ago
surprised it isnt closed yet
same question
did anyone move for stanford?
No
darn
also anything for gatech international?
anyone get waitlisted from Vandy transfer?
unusual
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
i feel like they overadmitted:<
or their yield was higher than expected
idt this redditor is telling the truth completely
theyre def taking less than last yr tho
they always admit more than they need
u know that right
each person who doesn’t go doesn’t mean a spot opens
columbia taking no one off would be highly unusual just saying
they probably tried and failed to guess the yield correctly
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
They’re probably going to take some people off but obviously less than last year
You need to stop overthinking this 😭 😭
Nothing you can do about what happens
the ivy leg!!
probably a better social life too
Way better
haha i have a friend who chose columbia cs over cmu cs
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
yea and its not like any employer is gonna look at the columbia text on a resume and auto reject
any employer who rejects based on school is a pos
some companies have resume filters 😭
but the trust in the candidate definitely depends on school
well fuck them
there are ppl who auto reject any ivy LOL
its so interesting
i mean i can understand why they believe in that logic i suppose
Like 0.001% of employers
yeah
and i mean
i dont think its logically sound
to do that
but it's funny
ts why MIT is the best school for employment frfr
cause it is so so hard to nepo ur way into MIT
oklahoma university or liberty 😬
theres some jobs where quality of education does matter
cus lets say youre in business then employers r gonna choose wharton over ou
OU is a school that’s often the most affordable and respectable school for oklahoma students
and liberty is liberty
is it still respectful after samantha fulnecky
its lost all academic credibility
an A at some schools are not the same as others
bro
come on
use some sense
this has always been true
you think she shouldve gotten an A?
this should reflect badly on the school’s standards and qualify of education
obviously not bro
so then OU is not respectable anymore after they gave her an A and fired a teacher for not doing so
but that’s just one case that caught national attention, that happens at many other schools
poor education standards and firing teachers = not respectable institution
you’re not understanding
then i dont find those other schools respectfulable either, i was just using an example
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
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
well . yes
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
😭
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?
Hi guys
which colleges use prager lmfao
southeastern university
and colleges that take prageru as college credit by partnering with them
“i don’t trust them” vs. “workplaces shouldn’t trust them”
Sometimes there are so many people applying for a job that this is a strategy companies use
yes i also googled and found that 🤣
like bro
come on
doesnt rlly change the fact that colleges r still using it
just admit you were wrong 😑
huh
blah blah i am privileged and don’t like universities that seem less than what i have blah blah
is what ur argument sounds like
ok well i was faulty in not considering that some ppl r stuck to certain colleges due to finances so that was my bad
well i feel like i already explained why i feel that ou doesnt have “respect” education wise so idrk what to say 😭
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
so for the thousands of students who go to OU for education and make something of it they just shouldn’t be given respect?
i never said i dont respect the students
no i’m talking about the institution as a whole
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
I’m against liberty U as a whole, but it’s an accredited uni for sure and does care about academics too
¯_(ツ)_/¯
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
yeah
From what I gathered you worded it as there are poor educational standards which there aren’t
also the OU administration is obviously full of people with no backbone
i do respect the students and i wasnt trying to make it seem like i disrespect the people or think any less of them
like many other uni administrations
sorry i just mixed up the students into their own institution
well icl i dont think OU has good educational standards 😭 but that doesnt reflect on the students ability to be successful and it doesnt make them less deserving of a job
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
Can you send the link to this story
I’m curious
My friend was considering the flight school 🙂 but decided on embry-riddle which imo sounds more fun cuz Florida
A clear explainer of the OU gender essay dispute, the media reaction, and what it reveals about campus free speech and academic standards.
It was a TA iirc
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
true
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
Maybe it’s just me, but I think this is an exception
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
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 😓
If anything I think it does show they care. They could have Legit done nothing. Instead they set up a grade appeals process, spent the time and money to investigate it, despite the ruling.
ohh i didnt think of it that way
im glad they pay attention to their appeals process and have that in place
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 👍
when is UCLA and UMIch any idea
I wish
Any columbia waitlist movement?
are you pakistani by any chance?

hi guys does anyone know if columbia accepts more info after the initial loci? i know they discourage additional materials but i just found out abt some awards today that i want them to know about
how good are the awards?
i think u have to understand that a lot of times with WL everyone is sending loci
the way they select is rlly weird and diff every year and often it's smth u have on ur app to help improve the diversity in their class
i know a friend who got off the WL last year and believes it was because they were really good at a specific instrument and were going to join the band
wait i thought their wl closed
or did i just get rejected later than everyone else 😭
no they didn’t
i got wl but then rejected
they did this last yr they tell the wl rejects they’re closed to make them feel better
then admit like 20 more 😵💫
olin coe
it was between that and uf for me
i also have like a gazillion other wl

yo i turned down ucla for u
bro hopkins pls let me off
harvard waitlist is always cooked
nah
would i get rescinded for not telling udub i dropped 3 online classes that dont matter for grad credits...
this sounds stupid but im too scared to email them 😢
i got an A in the first semester of all 3 of them
all 3 are honors classes
and i am now taking 5 aps 1 reg after droppign the 3 honors classes online
you should tell them
they'll be more concerned if they find out without you notifying them
ok i will 😭 sending emails just scares me
i wont get rescinded if i do tell them ahead of time tho right
i wouldnt know for sure but i would say probably not
should i email admissions....
ok good
have you had any good luck on the waitlist?
nope
all my other grades r fine i have A in everything but ap stat so i think im good???
aw
you probably are but if you have a college counselor i would talk to them as well
My main focus is the Columbia waitlist at the moment
y
any gatech or umich movements for internationals?
i cant find anything online and i mailed and got the standard response
Any Cornell college of engineering response?
soooo are we getting into columbia today
Columbia is not likely to release anything today
But I could be wrong
why
It’s a Monday
Friday I think
i withdrew from holy cross and vassar waitlist so i hope someone who wants to get accepted will get the results they want
+1 for columbia and yale 😇
