lol i deeply hate CMU now

1322

I really donā€™t understand this. If three days ago there was a room for waitlisted students in DC, why did they send him an email indicating DC is now full? so why did you ask for an essay? now he needs to fill out a form to remain on the WL againā€¦ wellā€¦ thank you but no thank you. We are done with this ridiculous institution.

1323

I didnā€™t even get an email lol welp

1324

i didnt get an email saying the decision was posted, i just checked the portal at 5, to clarify for future students in the same situation

1325

Oh Sorry!! Thank you for clarifying.

Had not realized such a brain drain happening st SCS. Doesnā€™t seem to be dampening applications. But loss of AI Chair has to hurt. And kind of sketchy it was announced after May 1 commitment day. https://mobile.nytimes.com/2018/05/04/technology/facebook-artificial-intelligence-researchers.html

Just checked and I got admitted to SCS!! I canā€™t believe it!!! Iā€™m in shock!

@CSinPA

Congratulations and enjoy every minute. I am truly happy you got in after what CMU put you guys through this week.

Perhaps you will meet up with my son if you are into security and participate in the big competition at NYU/CSAW in the future. He has some older friends on the team that beat CMU and will probably participate.

Anyone decided to stay on the extended list (summer notification) ?

1330

I am going to, though I feel the chances are slim to none.

1331

Congrats @CSinPA !! Can you tell us if you sent in LOCI or went to an info session? Just curious.

1332

Finger crossed ^:)^

1333

hey, how are you going to send the form for continued interest in the summer. Mail or fax?

1334

Fax

1335

cmu doesnt deserve you all

1336

@ThisIsTorture Thank you! Itā€™s still sinking in!

RD->PWL-sent LOCI->sent essay

I have visited campus many times, so I didnā€™t feel like I needed to visit again for a waitlist Information Session.
