Yes. My son just received his acceptance e mail today. So they are going out.
decision: accepted
91 gpa, 35 act, 790 math 2 & 730 physics sat2s
Dietrich (cognitive psychology/Spanish) invited to humanities scholars program!! I think my supplements really made up for mediocre stats
My son was wait-listed.
waitlisted for cmu scs. Congratulations to all admitted; CMU SCS is #1
Anyone accepted to engineering school, but still has not got the fat letter? That is what happened to my son, from Ohio.
My son was priority wait-listed for engineering. 1550 SAT, 800 on subjects. Less ideal GPA due to a few low Spanish/English grades. We are hopeful as some STEM kids will choose the super elite schools over CMU. Would choose UCLA or UCB over CMU, if the alternatives were real.
@zanskar true, I got into engineering for CMU yesterday, but am most likely going to decline and go to GaTech. Hope itâll help your son
I have to say that my son was denied with the most gratuitous rejection letter I have ever seen. They heaped praise on him, which is great because it softens the blow. I wasnât quite sure what to make of the last paragraph:
âIf our Office of Admission can be of any further assistance, please feel free to write or call. Our admission staff will be happy to help you with your college plans. We wish you every success in your future educational endeavors.â
Really? Are they expecting kids to call and ask for advice on what school they should attend instead of CMU? Wasnât sure what they meant by that.
I havenât gotten the fat letter either and I live in pa
@anonymousbrady69, - You are very kind. We work on the best but accept whatever the result is. Good luck on GA Tech journey. My neighborâs genius son chose GA Tech for aerospace engineering.
Accepted to the College of Engineering
OOS
SAT: 1400
GPA: 4.94
Rank: ?? top 6%
Full IB and a lot of extracurriculars involving engineering such as clubs, internships, and mentorships.
A lot of recognition awards involving engineering projects including recognition from the US Army.
My child admitted to Engineering (unrestricted) still hasnât received the FAT envelope either.
Financial aid letter is out on portal!
Wow, FA much better than expected! I had heard that CMU wasnât great with aid, but perhaps getting rid of merit this year freed up some $$$ for the rest of us!
Did you get an email when your aid came out? Itâs not out for me.
Significant aid but still extremely expensive
DS got priority waitlisted for SCS and rejected from Information Systems. He is actually equally if not more interested in Applied Mathematics and Computational Science, do you know if he can express interest to be considered to the College of Science also? Can we add this point to his waitlist essay prompt?
someone know how many people get âpriority wait-listedâ for SCS??
Last year 143 were accepted off the wait list (total) and around 5,000-ish people are wait listed out of about 44,000-ish total applicants. The chances of getting accepted are super super small and I donât think Iâm gonna accept my place on the wait list
