Looks like they don’t want me to enroll. It’s bad enough that I have heavy financial aid needs, but then I’m OOS too. Seriously, I don’t understand them rejecting someone already above the 75th percentile in every category at their school. So whatever.

Just got a decision. Wait-listed for CS. I am going to have them take me off the list, good luck everyone.

Notified yesterday via mail that I’ve been waitlisted. Oh, woohoo I get to wait two more months in limbo. Yay.
