- was everyone offered priority waitlist?
- how does FA work with the priority waitlist? if i'm pulled from the priority waitlist and can't afford the school am i able to decline???
@mmstanfordbound same here :ā( there are so so many of us qualified applications being rejectedā¦ this year is just really tough and it sucks
hi does anybody have any idea what this schedule k-1 form is? it wasnt on my financial aid documents needed when i first checkedā¦
I GOT IN!!! College of Engineering!
Is there a Facebook Group for the admits?
Just got the FAT Letter in the mail!!!
@latinamtmom Congrats! where are you located?
Does CMU invite their students to visit the college as well after being admitted?
Yes, they have several admitted student days
@mmstanfordbound got into one of my reaches and rejected from all others 
What is priority WLā¦ In my Sonās STEM cohort, one got in (white female, 1560 SAT, 36ACT plus SATIIs, MCS, bios), and one of my Sonās friend got that (MCS, 1580 SAT, 35ACT, plus SAT IIs, Chem major, White Male). The other two friends were rejected, both Asian Males (both 36 ACT// 1560/1590 SAT// plus SAT IIs) applying to CoE (BME and ChemE). My S didnāt apply even D2 is studying BME at CMU right now. It is crazy to have WL and then priority. JMHO.
@anotherdooropens i swear!
I thought my stats were pretty good and I poured out every passion I had for CS in my essays.
1520 SAT (Superscored)
790 Math 2, 720 Chemistry
95.6/100 GPA(not predicted)
On gap year
Done hundreds of hours of community service in an orphanage for blind children
Interned at a cyber security company - took a lot of high level courses in python and Linux
Learned penetration testing using Kali Linux
During school
I was the Head boy of my school, organised events, seminars and headed the committees
Designed brochures
Organised coding events
Was the secretary for the computer club
Headed a design thinking program
Done a lot of paintings for leisure - mentioned my passion for art v briefly
Very involved in church activities - part of church choir, participated in youth meetings and involved in community service there as well
I really thought I could get at least one of my targets or reaches but sadly none of the adcoms found my profile interesting enough.
Iām done with the process. Iām going to Singapore - SUTD which is a small, new college but I really liked the programs that were designed by MIT
@MisPollitas00 Thank you! Weāre in Chicago
My daughters were both accepted. Now this is all overā¦all decisions are in, I am going to need counseling on how they are going to decide!
@mmstanfordbound I pretty much feel the same like you.Rejected to all my reaches and I too took a gap year.I interned at my dads company to learn more about ChemE.I have almost the same stats as you 1490 sat ,790 math 2,760 chem sat . Admissions to these universities are a crapshoot and donāt be stressed out.The only saving grace is I was waitlisted at UC Berkeley.Good luck on your journey and I heard SUTD is more practical oriented.You will be a great fit there and do well.
Tepper Stats???
Going to Nova Business now. Waitlisted Harvard, Vanderbilt, Carnegie Mellon, NYU Stern, UMich, UNC Chapel Hill, and Boston College. Rejected from a bunch of reaches too and only accepted to backups. Not the most fortunate process.
Accepted to CFA!!! Does anyone know if thereās a facebook group for accepted Drama majors?
@chimilk What was the reach college? Congrats btw!
Has anyone applied to CMU Qatar?
What is āunrestrictedā vs ārestrictedā engineering?
