Are we allowed to put a deposit to multiple schools? For example put in a deposit for a safety school and then if accepted to Cornell then go to Cornell?
@Nomad413 I don’t think you’re supposed to do that, but I had a friend come into a deadline issue where he needed to place a deposit on a top LAC and the other school he was waiting for said go ahead and put the deposit. Therefore I would call both schools and ask them what to do. If you’re not having an issue with deadlines; why not just wait it out?
@ObLiViOuSx99 looks like ive seen that theyve weeded out some of the applicants in the earlier weeks for SHA from some of the other threads ive seen
I got rejected from SHA 2 weeks ago
@Nomad413 I’m in the same exact position as you. I’ll go ahead and pay the deposit and if you hear back from Cornell just tell the other university that you won’t be attending their school.
For people whom are already ACCEPTED. On your idoc, do you have one form that is owned by “Other”? I was on the phone with Financial Aid yesterday and the woman slipped saying that my “Transfer Transcript” was ordered and the “Other” document was the only thing that I could infer would be tangible evidence if her slip up was accurate.
Were there any ILR applicants admitted on Tuesday?
Was this week the end of the “rejection waves”?
@urmom666 Since I have not been rejected, it’s probably not the end yet 
@Vincent1997 lol same
@Vincent1997 me
@Vincent1997 cheers to our future rejections
hopefully the rejection waves are over
I feel like the rejection waves aren’t over because it seems like not that many people have received decisions at all…
I feel like the decision release process has been really slow this year…
I think many rejections have been out. A lot my friends got rejected already. They’re just not on collegeconfidential
Watch us still be waiting in June
@narinina It seems like that for many schools. UPenn for example is also delayed this year.
@Vincent1997 From a brief article I looked at all the top schools received record application numbers, probably does not mean a whole lot for us besides waiting longer but, I have a feeling it will be getting harder to transfer every year as more and more people apply to college and take the community college route. Bless anyone trying to transfer 5-10 years from now.
In general the college process has gotten really crazy because so many more students are encouraged to apply to 5 safeties, 5 matches, 5 reaches, etc. and the number keeps increasing. Acceptance rates are decreasing quickly, but idk if schools are necessarily becoming harder to get into; I think that everyone just applies to tons of schools now because it’s such a crapshoot, which drives acceptance rates down, which makes people add more schools for safety, and so on. Pretty much every school is reporting record high #'s of applicants every single year now.
I’m really worried for students who are going to be attending college in a few years–it seems like average elite private tuition has increased from $35-40k to $60-70k per year in less than a decade. That’s insane. Kids are gonna be paying $400k for their bachelor’s soon enough
