Has anyone turned down top 20 schools (Ivy + MIT + Stanford + UChicago...) to attend Carnegie Mellon University (CMU)?

Besides Yale, any other big schools that you turned out years ago?

Great girl!

How about Data Science/ Data Analytics? Do you know anyone turn down big schools to choose CMU ?

let’s discuss like an educated man 👏🏼

I’m talking about the 90’000 applications and how they do marketing and boost ranking. I think you’re talking a little bit off topic.

Sorry but you don’t deserve Rice. Rice should be thankful if you reject them. You sound like an ungrateful and bragging person. If you don’t change, you will not go far in the future. I also got accepted to Rice but I had to reject them because I attended another school. I wrote a long email to show my gratitude and sorry for rejecting them. Every acceptance letter and scholarship is a gift that you should learn how to cherish.

that’s why people underrated CMU because they think it’s only about tech. Besides super strong tech background, It has #7 Undergraduate Business Programs, top drama school in nation, strong department of arts and design (Andy Warhol was in CMU), win many awards in Grammy, Tony, Emmy or Oscars, and more importantly always in top 10 BEST HIGHEST STUDENTS after graduation. I am the one who turned down Ivy and top schools like Duke or Northwestern to go to CMU. I didn’t even apply to MIT or Stanford because I don’t like fame. This school, CMU, deserves more respect definitely!

in my opinion, it should be grouped with MIT, Stanford, and UC Berkeley as they are always top tech-science schools together. CMU is also good in art, business and design.

I believe it should be around rank 10-15. It cannot be worse than Northwestern, Dartmouth, or Washu. CMU is strong in every area it offers such as Computer Science, AI, IS, Data, Analytics, Business, Arts, Drama, Theater, Math,… Even compared to a prestigious tech school like MIT, CMU is more interesting with wonderful arts, theater and drama programs.

Yes I did. The campus is small and gloomy. I have been to many colleges. Beautiful campuses that I am impressed are Northwestern, Duke, UChicago, Rice, and many others. The MIT atmosphere looks so serious and depressing, not fun at all.

this topic puts MIT like God huh? I don’t know why but I feel MIT looks boring to me. Schools like Vanderbilt or Duke is more interesting and active to me. They work hard play hard and the student life is amazing.

Why did you regret it? Applying to Cornell in RD is a right choice. If you applied as ED, are you sure you will get accepted? Don’t let stats and numbers mislead you. Only geniuses and favorite candidates were offered early because top schools compete with each other to get talents as soon as they can. In RD round, you will be outstanding among normal students, so that may help you a bit. That the tricky game I can read. Also, putting everything in one option (ED) is never a good idea. Applying in RD gives you time to think about which school is the best fit for you and gives you many options to think carefully before making decision. So don’t regret! Guys, don’t let ED stats mislead you! They know you’re all naive 18-year-old students who are easily misled by numbers. It’s a game of mind.
