Got mailed Today</p>
<p>AcceptedAlready- you asked "Is CMU your first choice or do you just get excited easily?"</p>
<p>actually it is my 2nd choice (very close behind my 1st choice). and my first choice is acutally occupied by 2 colleges right now.
but im definitely DEFINITELY going to go visit cmu in the next month or so!!!!
and i m just really excited (iono if i get EASILY excited) bc its REALLY thrilling for me to get this acceptance because honestly , i thought my SAT scores killed my app. and i wasnt really sure if my common app essay was really personal(it had good style but many ppl had told me that i lacked focus on myself) . i'd been havin some negative comments on chances in the past/recently and so i was expecting rejection rejection rejection!
so i am most definitely ecstatic!!</p>

Anything Special: First generation college student
It arrived in mail today (as well as my waitlist at Olin :()</p>
<p>Since Olin might not be possible, CMU is definately my top choice although I haven't visited yet. The real dilemma is choosing between CMU with it's larger price tag (but probably would like it a lot more) and UIUC Honors ECE with instate tuition (but probably wouldn't like as much).</p>
<p>Good luck to everyone with their decisions.</p>
<p>i didn't get anything yet...</p>
<p>lol either ppl r 2 ashamed 2 say they got rejected or the ppl who havnet got letters yet r screwed lmao that includes me</p>

<p>btw, i didn't have an interview (i was wondering if that would hurt my chances)</p>
<p>I GOT IN!!!!!!! I got accepted at MCS. One quick question did scholarship info come in the acceptance or will they send that (if you get one) with the fin aid package?</p>
<p>Lex248</p>
<p>big shock.. :P</p>
<p>haha... i really did think i was done because of my lack of interview... see about a month ago i received this packet of names and contact numbers from CMU and all it said was "schedule your alumni interview today!" haha..really i was worried</p>
<p>"lol either ppl r 2 ashamed 2 say they got rejected or the ppl who havnet got letters yet r screwed lmao that includes me"</p>
<ol>
<li>Lots of letters sent early are acceptances.</li>
<li>Yes some people are ****ed/ashamed to say they've been rejected.</li>
<li>Some people were rejected or waitlisted from their first choice (let's say SCS) but they only post "accepted to (example: HSS)." which is their second or even third choice. Note that the schools in brackets are mere examples and should not be seen as an attack or promotion of either school.</li>
</ol>
<p>I've already gotten 3-4 PM's (won't say who) from ppl who have been rejected from their first choice and had questions about attending the 2nd/3rd schools.</p>
<p>If anyone has questions about anything concerning Carnegie Mellon (academics, social life, the city, money issues, prestige/job opps, etc) feel free to PM me as well.</p>

<p>woohoo maybe i can finally go back to posting here or other forums depending on my other letters. i dont want to wait anymore...... :(</p>
<p>Yay, i got accepted to CIT, MCS, and SCS</p>
<p>Accepted Already, it seems to me that the acceptances are going out the earliest, do you expect tomorrow to be a similar day of notifications so those who havent heard yet shouldnt worry</p>
<p>stats for chimera?</p>
<p>They do mix rejections with acceptances (as some people who got letters already were rejected). I'm just saying a majority of letters sent out earlier are acceptance letters. </p>
<p>I obviously can't say exactly for you whether you've been accepted or rejected but I believe a majority of letters sent out tomorrow will also be acceptances.</p>
<p>I have the feeling that they send the thin envelopes a couple days after a whole bunch of the acceptances are sent. At least that's what Rice did...</p>
<p>You're still in the clear for the next couple of days! I"m pretty sure fat letters are still arriving tmrw.</p>
