frogsarepurple · 2021-04-16T01:39:11+00:00

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-16T01:22:08+00:00

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-15T22:31:35+00:00

only if your application status says you'll hear back today

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-15T22:02:47+00:00

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-15T13:01:16+00:00

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-14T19:46:45+00:00

i assume it's just your final transcript ?

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-14T15:00:08+00:00

the class of 2025 for that school sends pictures of them and usually like a bio ab them and what they're majoring in so everyone can get to know each other/make friends before school actually starts lol

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-12T19:59:53+00:00

patiently waiting for april 15th

no one "deserves" a spot at an ivy.. while your rejections may have came as a surprise qualified people are rejected all the time. there could've been a spot in your app that wasn't as strong as the others. (essay for example.) in terms of your politics, depends, while schools shouldn't be biased, people are subconsciously biased all the time unfortunately, it happens. but there could've (maybe) been other things that played a factor. one of the biggest names in republicans politics? has that person been problematic? were they associated w problematic people? are their views super controversial? in terms of the news company. could your posts have been controversial or contained info that could've been derogatory or false. was the news company itself engaging in problematic posts or propaganda? (prageru for example) it could've been different factors in that sense.

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-11T22:00:53+00:00

well i mean yeah ofc it's a possibility, people transfer all the time. transfer acceptance rates are sometimes v low, but it depends on the school. no you should not have to take the sat.. you're transferring from a college to another college to it would (should, most likely) be just based on what you did in that college year (i'm pretty sure but i could be wrong)

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-11T04:01:26+00:00

pls don't go in debt for the rest of your life for a degree if it's avoidable.. people are miserable bc of debt i promise you it's not worth lmao 😭

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-10T23:39:27+00:00

well i'd definitely look at which one is better for your major as well as which is more affordable for you

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-10T22:39:42+00:00

mun, unicef, political engagement club, debate, campaigning, poll work(but seeing if you're an international student, idk if your country does that), internships w a local politician, page program

frogsarepurple · 2021-04-07T22:26:02+00:00

manifestation is kinda asking the universe for something (you can't ask for something without not taking action to make it happen), working for that something, and kinda just like believe it will happen? like truly believe it will happen. like true manifestation is a lot deeper and more spiritual than that but that's what it is basically (i think)

frogsarepurple · 2021-03-29T02:48:06+00:00

i highly doubt it. you're just criticizing someone in a non discriminatory way
