I will accept the waitlist and see what happens! I already know a few people who were accepted during early admission that aren’t going, so maybe that will open up a slot for me ;). Good luck everybody!</p>

<p>Accepted to Aerospace!!! (although probably switching to CS before the year starts if I attend)
I honestly never dreamed I’d get in. 3.5 uw GPA is very low for Tech and my 2070 SAT/30 ACT didn’t do me many favors, but my essay, course load, and extracurriculars pulled through for me. HELL YES</p>
