Welcome, College Rep: Carnegie Mellon Admission

<p>Hello!
I have a question. Is it possible for someone to minor in Drama at CMU, if they apply to the Tepper School or the School of Humanities and Social Sciences? In other words, can you minor in Drama and not be in the College of Fine Arts?</p>

<p>I imagine you could, but it's going to be pretty tough. One of my friends did a dual degree in Materials Science & Engineering and performance music from CFA, but it took him an extra semester to graduate.</p>

<p>Well that's fine, seeing how I don't want to do a dual degree, just a minor in Drama.
But that's what the minor is there for, right? For those who aren't in CFA...</p>

<p>Oh, didn't see it was a minor. Yeah, you should definitely be able to pick it up.</p>

<p>hai, everyone, i am an international. i knew before international students apply to CMU, they are required to submit the pre app form to prove ur able to afford the education at CMU. I am shocked when i checked their website cos it clearly states that the deadline to submit the form was 1st november. Is it just an "early" date?? Does it mean i cannot apply to Cmu anymore??</p>

<p>Does anyone know the ED stats?</p>

<p>ED II letters going out today.</p>

<p>My son did not receive his as of 1/19...good or bad?</p>

<p>I don’t even know if anyone still checks this thread but I was wondering if anyone knew about the CMU waitlist system. I heard that some people got into CMU but had wait list written on their online decision. I still haven’t gotten anything in the mail so I would just like to have an idea. On my online decision, I got wait listed to HSS and MCS so I was just wondering what that means. </p>

<p>Also, does CMU have a priority wait list?</p>

<p>Yes, they do.</p>

<p>I’ve read the course catalog and the discussion of the various majors and requirements so I want to see if I understand this – there is no language requirement for graduating? They have classes and majors in modern languages but my daughter’s been taking Latin forever and has no interest in starting a new language. So if anyone can confirm – she wouldn’t have to take a new language if she wanted to go there and major in Humanities? (Putting aside whether it would be good for her to take another language.) Thanks.</p>

<p>I know there’s no language requirement for CS, MCS, and CIT students, and I’m pretty sure it’s university-wide, so she probably won’t have to take another language class. Well, she will have to take Intro to Java, so I guess that’s one last language she’ll have to learn at least a little bit. ;)</p>

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>How easy is it to switch schools? I’ve been admitted to the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, but I would like to attend the Mellon College of Sciences (Economics major –> math major). Also, how would I go about doing this?</p>

<p>Thanks for your help.</p>

<p>Hey. Id been put on the priority waitlist for both, TSB and H&SS (Econ) . I was wondering if you had any idea as to the number of people accepted each year off the priority waitlist, the number of students receiving the option etc. because CMU is my first choice college, and i wanted to get an idea of my chances
Thanks</p>

<p>Hi,
The Official CMU FAT Letter refers to a “Welcome Package” for the online links to the online housing and dining forms. However, I either blank-mindedly misplaced my package or just didn’t recieve one. Where else can I find the link to the housing and dining forms? The CMU website also refers to this mysterious “Welcome Package.”</p>

<p>Thanks :]</p>

<p>^I think you get the welcome package after you submit the admissions deposit.</p>

<p>Hey
i tried to access my housing forms at first year resources on housing.cmu.edu but when i logged in i got this message:</p>

<p>No Active Forms</p>

<p>There are not currently any online forms that require your attention.</p>

<p>This message will be replaced once a form is available to you.</p>

<p>If there are any questions, please contact <a href=“mailto:rmassign@andrew.cmu.edu”>rmassign@andrew.cmu.edu</a></p>

<p>Did anyone have this problem? what do i do?</p>

<p>I don’t think the CMU rep even logs onto CC anymore.</p>

<p>not a rep. besides, the thing says if there are any questions email them. I think the solution would be to Email them. cheers.</p>

<p>I subscribed to this thread about four years ago, which I believe was about the last time a Carnegie Mellon Admissions representative posted on here. This thread should probably be closed and interested applicants should post on threads pertaining to their particular areas of interest. Or maybe one of those threads where current students answer general questions in an unofficial way.</p>
