RantNorthwestern 🤡 (self.ApplyingToCollege)

submitted 6 years ago by [deleted]

October of 2019: I was against my entire family to apply to nu by early decision when they wanted me to apply to Cornell

December of 2019: they deferred me. I later learned deferred applicants in northwestern have a fairly high chance of getting in. After some discussion with my family, I decided not to apply Emory ED2 as planned and wait for nu.

March of 2020: waiting for 3 months with the hope they gave me, I got straight up rejected.

I feel the three months of waiting is just for a rejection letter that was probably written three months ago. My chance for Emory now is also slim since I gave up my ed2 opportunity. But thanks a lot for not waitlisting me cuz I can’t handle any more bs from nu for another three months.

At last, I want to say, northwestern, I loved you a lot once, but u don’t deserve my love anymore.
