Official Carnegie Mellon Class of 2020 Applicants Discussion Thread

Only applied to 2 CMU schools and was waitlisted to both

Can everyone who got waitlisted also be on the priority-waitlist or is priority-waitlist selective and not everyone can be on it?

Anyone applying to school of art? I am not very confident about my portfolio…So stressed right now’

how to check if you are in the waiting list?

@qwerty1309 they took the link down!

@DDDDN I am. I’m not very confident either and after RISD waitlisted me all hope is gone.

Hi guys, best of luck for the upcoming results! Hope everyone does well!

I filled out the wait list reply form already… Was that something I shouldn’t have done given it wasn’t something we were supposed to know about?

@DDDDN I applied to CFA Art. What did your portfolio consist of?

@Kylemcgrogan I don’t think it was intended to go out this early but it’s not like you’re at fault. If you googled “Carnegie Mellon Waitlist” yesterday, the waitlist website would be the first result. It was available to the public so they just messed up. They may or may not reset all the forms.

That’s relieving @MandomeLife , i remember when I was first waiting for ED, I called and asked about the Where am I in the process “committee read” notification and they got pretty angry and said that was an internal market or soemthing and I shouldn’t know about it.

No photographs or 3-D works, only pieces of oil panting that are very abstract and reflect what was going on in my mind, a sketch, a collage, some mark-pen paintings, and fashion design drafts:-( u can check my Instagram ipaintitmyway if u r interested. I’ve posted some of my works on it, Thx:-)

What about yours?

Anyone apply as a physics major? Want to see how competitive it might be

@DDDDN i applied to art as well! Im really anxious to find out whether i got in or not :confused:

Same here

12 hours left.

This person must have received their FAT packet. Twitter says they live in NJ. I’m so nervous to go home and open the mailbox. I’m in MA so I’m pretty sure it will either be there or it won’t (because-rejection).
