@Xboxgamergirl T.T ahh omg thank you it’s just I got deferred from an EA school today and my self-esteem just went down the drain…
@lolacell , was it MIT?
@Xboxgamergirl haha no it was one of the ivys
MIT accepted 600-something out of 7700! It is nearly impossible to get accepted! Most got deferred. @lolacell - I’d be stunned if you didn’t get in to Tech.
A DEFER FROM AN IVY LEAGUE IS GOOD! dont let that bring you down!!! @lolacell

Letters of Rec: Good
Supplemental Questions: pretty average overall
Other Information:
OOS (California)
Male
I applied EA.
Major: Computer Engineering
Anyone have a clue on stats for provost or presidents scholarships?
@QuiteAverage90
Your test scores are above the median 50% and your rigor/curriculum is the highest possible within the context of your school. I think you’ve got pretty good chances but by definition holistic review encapsulates the application as a whole.
Ethnicity and state residency plays a minor role in the admissions process but you applied early action.
Good luck!
@jwala61 Per GT website: President’s Scholarship Program January 23, 2016 - Decisions about semifinalist status will be shared with all admitted early applicants to Georgia Tech.
Not sure if it applies to Provost??
@ismitah Congrats! Good luck at Emory! My nephew graduated last year. He loved it there!
Got a “happy holidays” email from Tech and a paper deferral from my early Ivy…thank you, Tech. <3
Hey is this an indication that I got in? Just got an email: “Happy Holidays from the Office of Undergraduate Admission at Georgia Tech! We hope you enjoy the season with family and friends, and we hope to see you on campus in 2016!”
@Fireball99 nope i imagine they send that email to everyone on their mailing list
I got the happy holidays too. It says happy holidays and hope to see you on campus in 2016. Will I visit them if they deny me?
Lol, that means nothing they are just trying to advertise their university and wish everyone happy holidays. They also sent it to non applicants who are a part of their mailing newsletter.
What other universities has anyone been accepted to so far?
My son just got into UMich, Engineering. Basic stats are AP Diploma with Distinction, (will have 10 AP classes), 3.80 UW, 4.3 W, 32 ACT Composite/34 Superscore, Leadership incl HOBY, Econ For Leaders (UT, Austin), Pianist, and competitive Chess Player since 3rd gr. Volunteer work incl overseas medical mission work 4 years.
Chances for GA Tech?
Good luck, everyone!
