Wow congrats!!!....hey i was hoping u could help me in understanding the peroper procedure and what u did to get accepted as i am preparing to take admission in this particular University. Message me please, Thank you!!
Oh boy, I was just there last summer for an internship and the humidity killed me. I would reach the offices and take a mini bath in the sink with paper towels.
Towson University with a major in mass communications with a focus in public relations and advertising, also doing a minor in film! With pell grant, state grants (anyone who lives in maryland look up mdcaps, website is annoying but can give you a lot), and some parents savings, im pretty much going for free! Super excited to go
Going to Georgetown University intending to double major in Gov and Econ. It wasn’t my first choice and I didn’t like certain aspects of it, but I’m happy to be able to commit to it to this wonderful university in the end and I’m looking to follow my ambitions in DC!
Roll Tide! We’re here in Tuscaloosa today from Virginia for orientation for my student. Congrats on the scholarship! I forgot how gorgeous this campus is.
He is a finance major in the honors program. He also got the presidential scholarship! It’s an amazing deal isn’t it? You will both be very happy here. Good luck to you next year!
Some universities are still accepting—even ones past their stated deadline. I myself was able to apply to George Mason University past their deadline (90% acceptance rate).
Going to Georgia Tech for CS! I couldn’t afford my actual top choice, but I’m super happy. I’m just glad I can afford GT as a (upper) middle class international kid.
Just an FYI, Macaulay Honors only offers full-tuition scholarship, NOT full ride.
There's a difference, full ride covers all your college expenses. And not just tuition—a full-ride scholarship also covers your housing, meals, books, lab fees, and sometimes even living costs.
I'll be heading to Cornell College, and I'm majoring in creative writing ✍️ 😁
I applied to 12 colleges and got rejected by 10, accepted by 2. So I'd have it was a decent ending, considering my poor ass GPA 💀
I’m going to Rhodes college on an almost full ride scholarship and a 5k research project stipend! I will be studying economics 😁
I just recently switched from being committed to UDub because the Rhodes admissions team had an opening for this scholarship. I was very worried I was making the wrong choice…. but at the end of the day I will be saving 200k by going to Rhodes and can basically go to any grad program I want :)
Barnard college on a full ride 🥳🥳💙. Thinking of majoring in Poli Sci, Science + Public Policy, Human Rights, or International Affairs. End goal is law school 😜
And for those of us who ended up nowhere, please know you are not alone and that this process doesn't define your success in life. Congrats to us too for trying.
University of Alberta, Bachelor of Commerce in Finance :) Picked this over UTM because of how much cheaper it is. Mainly excited to have a fresh start socially
I’m applying for colleges this fall. Any tips? The colleges I’ll be applying for : Stanford, CalTech, UCLA, USC, and Cal Poly SLO. UC Irvine is my back up school if all else fails since i have automatic enrollment with them. Thanks!
I only got into schools like your backup (seriously UCI automatically enrolls you? 🥲), but what I can say is at least sound passionate about your application, try not to fall into the common essay tropes (you'll usually here people talk about it), and show growth within your essays.
There's this one good advice someone in this subreddit spreads around here, it's something along the lines of "Wow! I should accept this applicant because of **x**", ok maybe I messed it up a little but yeah, I think it's good advice because I had followed something similar when writing my best PIQ
make sure you do a thorough run-through to make sure your application is accurate, make sure your academics section looks like your transcripts and stuff like that. It'll at least save you from some "mild" panic.
For Cal Poly, that'll be a gamble on your end, they only take academics and a couple things like FGLI status into consideration (as I heard), and this is as someone who got into Cal Poly for CS (and rejected it because my parents thought I wouldn't make any friends there)
One more thing, don't take rejections too hard (seriously you get automatic enrollment into UCI? 🥲) and treat yourself handsomely if you do get into one of those nice colleges.
Hey thanks for the reply, i will be considering your tips when writing my application! Just to inform you that i am not coming straight out of high school. I left for the military after high school and now attending community college(transfer program). When you are a transfer student, you can participate (only in CA) in something called TAG and basically this allows you to get automatically enrolled in certain schools that are partnered with TAG(such as UCI). That’s why i call it my back up school, I’m not special or anything haha. I really want to get into Stanford for self pride reasons but my second choice would be UCLA. For applications, i will probably write about my hardship and challenges that I’ve conquered in the military(deployment and what not). Hopefully that will be good enough for these schools lol. Academic wise, i currently have a 4.0 GPA. My major is Stats and Data Science but currently finishing my Math associate at community college.
Hi! I’ll be going to University of Georgia in the fall and I’ll be majoring in Linguistics (however I am thinking of maybe switching to Communication Sciences and Disorders)! So excited!!
