[*] Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: …probably legacy. I have strong extracurriculars, course load, and grades though.
@hopefulperson Probably! In the materials checklist, it listed my music supplement as received, which probably means that they forwarded the supplement to the music department or something.
Possible
Likely!
Is a “Likely” a safe bet that an acceptance will come next month?
I think so, as long as you don’t blow up a building or something
@senioritis18 I applied RD and got a letter in the mail today saying I was accepted early.
Well, according to YouTube analytics, someone in Massachusetts watched my art supplement video. That bodes well.
Where do you guys see your answer? Where exactly on the portal?
Got a possible. Pretty dissapointed ://////
Got a likely! Very excited, love the school. But the finances could be a dealbreaker. I won’t get my hopes up about possibly attending unless the financial aid really comes through.
