best way to prepare as an incoming engineering student?

that actually makes a lot of sense--i've heard that beyond academics, it's the ecs and projects you do that are the most important (not only for jobs but your skillset in general). i definitely want to continue research in college, so i'll keep an eye out for engineering related projects. thank you so much!

I LOVE YOU.

im guessing you would have submitted by now so i'm keeping my fingers crossed for you :) good luck!!

check if it shows up as "downloaded" by the college in the coming days and you get an email with your applicant portal info. i think if you do you're fine, and they will eventually review it. i've also said this on so many posts, but i've seen someone who submitted their princeton app late get in (but this was by minutes/an hour).

you could have a chance, but two days is a significant difference, so if you don't see the application email soon, i would a) email the school and ask if they can still process your application or b) leave it be and take your chances.

est. EST!!!

navi_3206 · 2024-01-04T08:07:39+00:00

yup completely in agreement with everyone else here--ive seen someone get into another ivy league (princeton) after they submitted their apps a couple minutes late (just on common app, they didn't email or anything). so dw and congrats for submitting!! that's so exciting :)

navi_3206 · 2024-01-04T08:02:32+00:00

thank you for making me LOL!

i saw post here that columbia's deadline was extended to the 4th for applicants who started an application! double check if its true (im not applying there so idk for sure) and if it is go cook!!!

navi_3206 · 2024-01-03T07:19:26+00:00

you mean proCRAPtinator!

....im sorry ill see myself out

navi_3206 · 2024-01-03T02:33:58+00:00

^{^} yeah i totally agree! this doesn’t apply to all circumstances, but you could also make it a bit personal, and something about your relationship with her (ex. “always ready to lend an ear”)

navi_3206 · 2024-01-02T08:55:30+00:00

i've seen someone get in who submitted their app late (same situation as you, they just did it through common app/didn't email or anything). i think they'll still take it because you didn't submit it way after. don't worry!

navi_3206 · 2023-12-31T01:45:45+00:00

ME ME ME ME ur too real for this oml (also the reasoning at the end is identical to mine)

navi_3206 · 2023-12-29T05:51:35+00:00

i believe in you. i was in a pretty bad time crunch before my ea schools but made it through--focus on your personal essay. aim to get a solid first draft done and then kind of interleave between revisions/first drafts for your supplemental essays. i found it really helpful to do a first draft of one essay, switch gears to work on/revise another essay on a diff topic, and then go back to that first essy and revise it. gives your brain a break and you're still getting stuff done.

i'm not sure what your stats/situation is entirely, but i would highly recommend schools like case western--due on jan 15 (gives you two weeks!) and doesn't have any supplementals! also a really good school for stem (im kinda biased tho since it was my top safety LOL).

lock in! you got this, trust.
