Brown Class of 2022 Applicants Discussion

@lizzy1234 lol by you claiming that people think your nice means you aren’t. Nobody on this forum thinks your nice or helpful. Your just as clueless to the admission process as we all are and making speculations…

Reality show idea: 20 students who all applied to highly selective schools placed in one house and their only connection to the outside world is College Confidential :)) Each week someone is voted out of the house based on baseless CC speculations determining their admittance chances.

Plot twist: One of the students really isn’t a student but is an undercover admissions officer

My life would be infinitely better without this website :)). Comforting to know it will all be done this week.

I was having a great day, everything was fine… I log on to CC and see the +176 messages on the Brown Thread all about IDOC situation… now I am on my way to the ER D: thanks for the heart attack peeps

@lizzy1234 nice try, highschool2018! looks like reddit mods have deleted your comments as well…

Sending good vibes to everyone else – we’re all in this together! Btw the fin aid link is back up.

It’s also funny how we all talk about how stressful CC is and how we are so excited to finally leave it, but come on, we are all lowkey addicted to it too :))

Well, tomorrow is the day guys! It is okay to assume that we are going to take an L, but please don’t lose hope. I applied ED (then got deferred) so I have been waiting for this for about 3 months now. Good luck everyone!

@hopefull7890 Same dude. December 14 seems so long ago at the same time it feels like the past few months have gone by so fast. Good luck :).

only fafsa and css on my Brown portal. dang it. figured but still stings. moving onto praying for Penn or Princeton.

@Harvard2022maybe : You are going to get your aid package on admissions day if you should be admitted. Brown specifically says that if you got better financial aids from peer schools, you should let them know. See https://www.brown.edu/about/administration/financial-aid/general-questions.

You might want to read “2 Reasons Why Need Blind Admissions Is A Farce” (https://www.■■■■■■■■■■■■/the-ivy-coach-blog/college-admissions/2-reasons-need-blind-admissions-farce/). But since this is going on behind the scene and beyond your control, there is no need to know. I have other posts mentioning this a couple days ago.

Don’t miss the link within the Ivy Coach article – https://www.huffingtonpost.com/bev-taylor/need-blind-admissions-is-_b_5615698.html

Ugh a little of 24 hours left. I feel like I’m gonna throw up :/.

So no one has gotten accepted with just FAFSA CSS?

I have for Northwestern, but I’m not sure about Brown.

Tip from a more supportive parent-
At this time, what will be…will be. Our son was rejected EA from his #1 back in December. We discussed all the other kids who were rejected or deferred…there is simply not enough room for all of you fantastic students and you are fantastic!
Prepare yourself for all outcomes. Anything is possible anytime…anywhere for anyone!
Be proud of yourself, it’s your SENIOR year and you reached far without regret! Almost graduation!!
I’m proud of you… now go Netflix, fortnite, bake or program your rasberry pi thing-
Whatever makes you feel happy…
Congratulations on you!!
