Georgia Tech decisions

<p>I am waitlisted. FML. :(</p>

<p>Hey, that’s pretty unusual…
u got accepted to UIUC, right??
the acceptance rate for both of them is in the sixties
(UIUC’s acceptance rate for CS/Comp Engg is even less)</p>

<p>Still, u don’t need 2 worry as I think dat UIUC’s CS/Comp Engg is better than GaTech, not to mention the huge difference in the social scene…
best of luck!</p>

<p>Well, yeah UIUC is better… But it’s just that I was confident that I would get in.
Were you accepted at GT?</p>

<p>same here… accepted to UIUC waitlisted at tech…but Tech is more selective for international students as compared to UIUC because Tech is a public school</p>

<p>UIUC is a public school too! Flagship university of Illinois!</p>

<p>I didn’t apply to Georgia Tech…
(coz of the foreign evaluation crap)</p>

<p>@AkshayM:
Even UIUC’s a public school…
looks like Tech has changed dere policies 2wards internationals…</p>

<p>I just hope UMich hasn’t changed its policies 2wards internationals…
though wud b huge confusion in deciding b/w UIUC & Umich if accepted dere too…</p>

<p>Yeah. Same here Pulkit. However, I’ve not got a decision from UMich yet. Have you?</p>

<p>me neither, I’ve heard that UMich begins to release its decisions april onwards(rolling)…
Best Of Luck…</p>

<p>Thanks!
Same to you!</p>

<p>have you guys accepted the waitlist offer?.. are you sending any transcripts?</p>

<p>I’ve accepted the waitlist offer. However, I’ve already passed my 12th grade (took a gap year), so I have no updates to any of my transcripts.</p>

<p>I guess the foreign credential evaluation part really does us in… it was just evaluated on the class 10th board examinations and it doesn’t give a picture at all of rigor of curriculum or consistency. I dont mean to be arrogant here but what we study in maths and science in 11th and 12th is almost as tough as the AP courses and I wish they had a bit more understanding of the Indian curriculum, instead of considering the evaluation only.</p>

<p>Goodluck to those waitlisted! Keep the faith :)</p>

<p>I got waitlisted too, but things are looking up for it. Typically, only a fraction of their accepted applicants commit to it, which opens a lot of space up. Remember that the reason is only for space issues, and that this means you are their kind of student. I have a feeling students who submitted at the last minute got less priority in consideration. Good luck with your spot! We’re competing :o</p>

<p>@gary:
Thanks :)</p>

<p>i am in the same boat as you guys… i’m indian 2.</p>

<p>accepted to UIUC-engineering… waitlisted at Georgia Tech and
waiting for a reply from UMich…</p>

<p>hurry up UMich, now would be an appropriate time to reveal the ‘forbidden results’ …</p>

<p>oh… the despair…
lol</p>

<p>Now, its officially getting on my nerves-
UMich still haven’t notified me of decision or anything else!</p>

<p>No Indian has received anything from UM it seems…</p>

<p>that’s a bummer…
is UMich fed up of all indian students?</p>

<p>Btw, pulkit are you applying from india or from another region as an international indian applicant?</p>

<p>Indian ,applying frm India</p>
