I admit, I was rushing to finish my application, so I was not able to read the checkboxes at the end of the application, after payment.
I just want to know what they said. Basically, after paying the $75 to send in the application, you are redirected back to Common App with 5 or so checkboxes (which were all required), I just quickly checked them all to get my application in on time. Again, I understand what I did was not good, but I was desperate. So, what did they say?
You promised to donate a 20% tithe off all your future earnings to CMU, should they deign to accept you.
I’m assuming you’re referring to the Carnegie Mellon Early decision deadline of 11/1.
Here’s CMU’s website regarding early decision:
https://admission.enrollment.cmu.edu/pages/149
My memory of what I agreed to (as a parent) aligns with what’s on the CMU website above:
If you’re admitted to Carnegie Mellon, we expect you to enroll.
You must agree to withdraw applications previously submitted to other institutions, in any country, when notified of Early Decision acceptance and financial aid granted at Carnegie Mellon.
I remember some terminology about being able to disregard early decision if the financial aid package is rejected, but the website has this item:
You are not able to compare financial aid packages between Carnegie Mellon and other universities you may have applied to.
