@CasimirPulaski1 do you know of any past situations where people received the glitch but didn’t actually get in? or vice versa, not getting the glitch but still getting in?

@tallpolyglot Unweighted vs. weighted GPA is only used when referring to HS GPAs not college GPAs. Your college GPA is not weighted.
@patrickbritt People have not gotten the housing glitch and still gotten in. I haven’t heard of someone getting the housing glitch and not getting in though

@bbe267 awesome. Thanks!

184

so I think it’s insured delay this year :frowning:

185

@drjisper I think it comes out tmrw

186

You guys this stress is miserable.

187

Gpa definitely matters a lot. It’s not just about credits.

188

lol im pretty nervous, keep thinking in the back of my head that I wouldn’t get accepted, since last semester I applied & got rejected. But that was my fault since I applied with like a 2.8gpa. Hopefully this time around, praying I get accepted

189

@yolo4evaa what are your stats?

190

@UMDhopefully It doesn’t matter as much as the other things, though. When I called (I called a few times) each time they said as a transfer student the GPA matters, yes but it isn’t the end all be all

191

@tallpolyglot
Damn that’s the only thing I got going for me lol

192

@CasimirPulaski1 I’m sure you’re gonna be just fine! The school wants people that can bring a unique atmosphere to the campus, not everything at the school is about grades. That would be absurd lol

193

Here’s to hoping that we hear tommorow

194

197

198

Lol I hope this is the day, because they are taking way too long!

199

Chance me-- I’m hoping it comes out today though!

Three possibilities:

  1. None of us got in which is why no one has gotten the housing glitch
  2. They fixed the housing glitch and decisions are coming today
  3. Decisions aren’t coming today
