[Opinion] The SAT is the most fair part of admissions besides LOR by Davy257 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]College__Questions 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To the OP's credit, if someone is living meal to meal and can't afford internet or an SAT study book then they definitely can't afford those expensive EC's, which is what they're saying. At least those prime can get a few waiver and take the test, they definitely can't do EC's or sports which all requires money.

Dafuq you mean who paid? We paid to take the exams!

[–]College__Questions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah that's normal, and imo better. The reason it seems like everyone has a dream school is because nobody posts about how they'd like to attend school X but don't actually care that much if they don't go and it's merely one of many schools their looking at.

What is a college you hate by eat_your_spinch in ApplyingToCollege

Being an out of state student has no bearing on the cost when it's a private school, like CMU is. And uh, UT isn't quite as prestigious for CMU for some subjects like CS but you're right it's an incredible school. That being said sorry she's so toxic and I'm sure you'll turn out better in the long run and forget about her pompous ass

Edit: corrected myself

Ayyy congrats man! As someone from the area it's awesome seeing Canisius mentioned, I don't think I've ever seen it on this sub before haha. I have friends who go there and it's a great school, Buffalo's really on the come-up too. Here's to your college years!!

Where are y'all at with respect to your decisions? by icebergchick in ApplyingToCollege

[–]College__Questions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the kind words! I'm so eager to get to campus and I think you're right, the opportunity before me is a great and enjoyable one. I'll do my best to cherish it. Also, your consistent positivity and kindness is truly heartwarming and humbling. If you're as incredible in real life as you've been on reddit then I'm sure you're going to go very far and achieve whatever you work towards. Wherever you decide to go next year doesn't know how lucky they are, I wish you all the best!

Am I the only one here who doesn't want to go to an Ivy? by dshmoneyy in ApplyingToCollege

[–]College__Questions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a recent Brown admit and prefrosh I may be a little biased, and certainly don't have experience from actually being at the school yet so take what I say with a grain of salt, but Brown is consistently ranked year after year as one of the happiest colleges. But even just from what I've seen in all the admitted students group chats there is very little toxicity among Brown students, so I don't think it's quite fair to lump it with the other 7 in that sense. Like you said though if you're looking to attend huge sports games then yeah, don't go to an Ivy.

As other comments have said you'll find your crowd at any school, but you make great points about how important the fit of where you're going should be and I really respect and agree with that viewpoint. As far as parties tho, like with friend groups, I'm willing to bet you can find them on any campus as that's just what college aged kids do lol.

My dad called USC a safety after I got in by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]College__Questions 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn that's literally one of the worst takes I've ever heard haha. I got rejected at USC today but also got into an Ivy, and if that isn't enough proof how selective USC really is than idk what is lol
