Reed is my top choice. It may also be yours. I figure this thread is a great place to keep up to date on our chances of getting off of the wait list. Feel free to post anything that may be helpful/informative
Reed is also my too choice currently awaiting decisions. Did you send in any extra material?
@BlackMagic81 not yet, I have an interview with an adcom today
@aurthur I had an interview before. How did yours do?
The conversation was great, but i’m not sure how great my explanation for my grades was @BlackMagic81
My adcom told me I don’t need to send anything more @BlackMagic81
@aurthur yeah I was going to but never found the time. Ehh I’m sure you’ll be fine. Where did ya send a deposit to in the mean time?
@BlackMagic81 New College of Florida. Also, if you’re curious, my stats are 3.1 GPA, 2170 SAT (730 CR, 750 W) , 800 U.S History, 750 Literature, and my parents’ income is about $186,000 a year. I mention the last one because income can play a role in this process
It may, in fact, have resulted in me being wait-listed instead of rejected
Put mine in at UPitt. My stats are 3.76, 2050 (760 math 660 reading), 32 ACT, 770 Math2, parents income is low so definitely hurts. Don’t think there’s that high of a chance if me getting in. My interview went really well tho and my essay was decent.
@BlackMagic81 Dang, you deserve it buddy. You’ve been working way harder than I have
Dang, you deserve it buddy. You’ve been working way harder than I have
UPitt is a great school. I’m sure you’ll do wonderfully there
@aurthur nah I definitely haven’t but thanks! I’m sure we’ll both do great wherever we go
I receieved a call yesterday from my admissions officer notifying me of my admission off of the waitlist. If anyone has questions i am open to answering them!
finally remembered my password lol. but i sent 2 extra essays + a recommendation but my parents make less than the COA combined so not really expecting much
I received an email today from a senior admission officer asking me if I am still interested in attending Reed college. He also asked me if I can give him a phone call. I dont know what’s going on here…can somebody give me any suggestions?
I am on the waitlist. Any information you want to share would be helpful. Did you send any supplemental materials? Interview? Are you accepting the spot (that is probably a silly question)? It sounds like you received a phone call rather than an email? Congratulations! Not giving up hope yet.
Just got a phone call from Reed notifying me the decision of off the wailtlist. i am happy to answer all the questions considering the waitlist
