So excited to be in the class of 2020!

Not gonna lie, even though I knew the chances were slim I’m still pretty bummed. Nevertheless, it’s good to have a final decision. Good luck to everyone lurking, and congratulations to those who got in.
Can you send me a link to the online portal?

@USAStudent06
congrats on your acceptance! would you mind sharing your stats to the above link?
MayiqueCynthia, Mudd is SO small… deferred students in particular risk that admissions will come and see your post – and see what other schools are on the table and status of them, and also any frank comments made about strengths and weaknesses. I am not saying they would do that, but the opportunity certainly exists. And it makes accepted students pretty easily identifiable to others once they get to Mudd – so posting for accepted students means everybody knows all your info when you get there if they choose to look into it. So people can post at their own risk… but it is not like a large school like Berkeley. In the past, there are has been very little posting like this on the Mudd forums, and I think that is the probable reason.
