@milwaukeegirl Yes he was invited to be a “Pinnacle Scholar” but really other than the stipend to do research and special seminars (aka more work!) The other perks don’t look very exclusive…4+1 masters (I’m sure they “allow” everyone to stay and spend more money!) Discounts to city offerings (all of us New Yorkers know how to get those one way or another) “Individualized mentor and advisement”? At these prices they better get that anyway! LOL Seriously - does your daughter think it’s worth it for extra work?

@rualum Thank you.
GPA could be acceptable because as i said, it was my first year here and I needed to take some essential courses(they were requirement actually) before APs
ECs I had been soccer captain and got 3 medals in my previous high school, but in the USA I didn’t join, so yeah, negative.
No interview,I didn’t know.
And because this is an engineering school I didn’t think Reading score that matters, also even if, they are not that bad, I guess.

@reformedman Thank you for your response.

I am taking CALC III and AP PHYSICS C: ELECTRICITY AND MAGNETIZM, this year.(so, I mean, hard courses)

I am not a citizen yet, but will be in 3 years.

I didn’t see any statement in their website that says: SAT Subject Test is a requirement.If you do, can you send the link?

@yesilhop SAT subject tests are “considered” for undergrads. They are “required” for the special medical program.

@yesilhop I didnt take the subject tests but still got accepted, but they dont give me enough money tho.

@actkid I bet the waitlist may work out for him - I’m sure many of those accepted go somewhere else. Whatever he chooses, best of luck!

47

Looks like they won’t be taking anyone from the waitlist. S just got an email.

@STEM2017, wow, that’s a shocker given their 40% acceptance rate last year. It’s a great STEM school with a high stat student body that has been under the radar - I guess until now!

49

@STEM2017 where did you get that information? I know people that have been taken off the waitlist. Can you show the email?

Here is the email, dated May 11…
