I dont think that you really get a say. They pre-evaluate your app and “send” it over to your first choice college. 99% of the time this is the case and you either get admitted or “rejected” at your first choice (from the cuny protal app). Sometimes, however, if the applicant is pretty damn stellar but for some reason is not accepted to MHC at their first choice campus, (either due to lack of the “match” factor or seats full or something lame like that), they get sent over to their 2nd choice campus for a seperate evaluation. Or so as far as I can tell.
I’ve actually heard Hunter is pretty good for pre-med/social work/nutrional science(?) and some other specific science disciplines, but not really, say, physics or math oriented. Thats more City, and prehaps Queens. (ive taken a course at Queens, it was pretty cool/chill).
My sons portal says this… Your application is complete.
An admissions decision has been made by the college(s) listed on your application.
You will receive notification from all college choices shortly.
Does this mean he was rejected?
No, it just means that the process is over, and all of the colleges he applied for have made a decision regarding your son. Now you wait for those notifications, which seem to be sent via email in most cases. Those emails will let you know whether he has been accepted or not.
@shacherry It means that a decision was made by the colleges that your son applied to and he will begin finding out soon if he was accepted or not. Most of my cuny decisions were sent by email.
So i discovered something in the CUNY portal, when you log in and see “College Links” if one of the colleges you applied to isn’t there, that means you got rejected. Cause Queens disappeared for me a few days ago and i just got an email saying they rejected me
@Roosey I noticed that too! I noticed it last weekend and I wondered about it every time I logged in since. Baruch was gone. So I guess that’s one rejection we can wait for
@ithoughtso Sorry dude :(. what was your first choice?
I’m really hoping for City College to accept me, I heard bad things about City Tech
Yep @Roosey Baruch was first choice. And I heard the same about city tech. CSI isn’t looking so bad after all. Sorry about Queens. This shouldn’t be so difficult…
@Ithoughtso This week should the week every college gets back to you, it seems that way since a lot of people got emails today
Did anyone else get a letter from CUNY about taking the assessment test? Does everyone have to take this?
I haven’t gotten it yet, but a few of my friends have, so Im expecting an email soon. I think everyone has to take it. Ive seen it mentioned on the City college website, but not much anywhere else.
On another note, did anyone get an email inviting to apply to become a deans scholars at Baruch?
It sounds EXACTly like mhc, its almost creepy? I dont get it. Are they trying to compete? lol
@ggwpafk823 I got it by mail, and yeah I checked the city college website and they said everyone has to take it. I got the deans scholar email too lol it’s basically the same as mch. is baruch the only one that has it?
its the only one i know of. Im going to apply just for the heck of it, I like baruch more than hunter anyways even though they dont give housing.
Does anyone know if they received Hunter college acceptance yet? It’s almost been 2 weeks ever since I emailed CUNY and they said I’ll get them within 2 weeks.
As of now, I assume I got rejected from Baruch as their college link disappeared and they were not included in my hotline.
Did anyone receive Hunter yet? I received Brooklyn Feb 27 and KCC Feb 25. City tech and hunter has yet to send an email and I’m getting really impatient constantly checking for any tidbits. Fingers crossed I got in.
I’m still waiting on Hunter too. It’s the only that I haven’t heard from yet.
I got an email from John Jay saying i’m conditional i need to take the CUNY Assessment. Looks like it’s Math since i do not meet CUNY’s qualifications for being proficient in math, everything else i met.
@Roosey I think everyone has to take the CUNY assessment. I’m taking math 3 next week
I just got my Hunter acceptance today, but most kids in my school got their’s in Feb. Also, I was never contacted about an interview. Hunter is my first choice for Macaulay, but I’m kind of getting the vibe that I am an unlikely admit. Could anyone tell me how important the interview was and also how you were contacted about it? Thank you.
I got accepted to Brooklyn and Queens earlier this week. Yet to hear back from Hunter and Baruch, although I did get an email about Baruch’s Dean’s Scholars program.
got into brooklyn and queens last friday and lehman today. Still have to wait for City, Baruch, and Hunter. Got the email for baruch’s dean scholar and city emailed me saying they were reviewing my application for grove school and macaulay
