Official Carnegie Mellon Class of 2020 Applicants Discussion Thread

@MandomeLife Thank you!! :slight_smile: Is it possible for me to see your art?
@ancientfan I’ll pm you a link to my website!

Can someone accepted into SCS and CIT post their stats please?

@gdai98 I won’t be able to show you my work until after the AP Studio Art submission date. I’d be happy to send you a description though via PM if you’re interested.

@MadomeLife Is it possible for me to see your art too? :slight_smile:

@MandomeLife That’s ok! :slight_smile: I don’t mind the wait haha, I’d love to see your work. And please do!

Hehe please share artwork! v curious :slight_smile:

Hey guys, I have a small question and would be extremely grateful if someone could clarify.
so basically I applied to
1st choice : CIT ece
2nd: CIT undecided
3rd: MCS undecided

now my letter of acceptance says

“Congratulations! It is an honor to invite you to join Carnegie Mellon University’s College of Engineering for Fall 2016. If you enroll in the College of Engineering, you will have the opportunity to select a major from the departments of Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical & Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or Materials Science & Engineering, as well as our double major programs in Engineering & Public Policy and Biomedical Engineering.”

(it also mentions I got wait listed for mcs undecided but i dont care about that )
now my question is, did I get in to first choice or second choice? (also note that it does not say i got rejected from ece anywhere… so idk)

this maybe be a stupid question. sorry, but I’m clueless :stuck_out_tongue:

Thank you!

@sreya124 does your letter mention anything about priority waitlist?

Priority wait list for IS. Haven’t got any acceptances that I am happy with.

Opt-in for regular wait list

Is priority waitlist offered to everyone? Or are select people chosen to be offered the priority option? Does anyone know?

@adhebbar
Congratulations! Guess I won’t be joining you at CMU.

Got wait listed for MCS… 2280 sat and top 3% in class but hey that’s life…

Accepted to MCS, rejected from SCS (the latter was quite expected lol). 2320 SAT, but I have friends with even higher scores who were wait listed/rejected so admissions really is a crap shoot.

Admitted into SCS , CIT and MCS, the former being the first choice…posting for my son !

My son got priority waitlisted. What does this mean?

Accepted!!!

@adhebbar since your first and second choice were in the same college, it sounds like you can pick ece or any of the other majors they listed in the letter - congrats!

Are those who were accepted able to access the link given in the acceptance letter with your “new unique Admission ID” for further information? So far only seeing the same admissions info that has been there all along in the process. Anyone able to access anything new online since being accepted?

FYI, the new “unique Admission ID” has not worked for me, either.

@Porter098 There’s the enrollment reply form and the admitted student questionaire
