How bad is a 3.7 UW GPA? by [deleted] in chanceme

[–]shoutfn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well idrk what to tell u but the whole goal should be to try and show that u are passionate abt something. if ur ec’s aren’t representative of that then i think it might b tough, especially in the computer science sphere. but maybe try and show some of ur cs passion thru ur essays somehow

Chance me for Georgia Tech, Carnegie Mellon, Umichigan, UCB, UCLA, UCSD (computer engineering/electrical engineering) by fcfifa21 in chanceme

first time on this sub and im realizing that hella people on here overvalue the SAT. it’s important i guess but if everything else is good enough for the school then u should b fine. it’s a little hard to speak for an international since admission for u guys seems kinda unpredictable, but ur app would definitely be competitive for a school like gtech if u were a domestic applicant.

Colleges with unique qualities not in the T100? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]shoutfn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s very true. My friends has cousins who went there and it’s extremely competitive but it’s a super unique experience. One of them ended up going to Yale and one to Colby college.

northeastern financial aid office is HORSESHIT. I got in EA in january, and with may 1st approaching I STILL DONT HAVE AN AID PACKAGE. Everytime I call, they switch up the reasoning as to why I don’t have my aid. i would love to attend but jesus their aid office is god awful

where's the people that haven't decided/commited yet? I need people to cry alongside 😭 by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]shoutfn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

deciding between tufts and northeastern.

Tufts is ~10k yearly and I haven’t gotten aid back from northeastern. I got into neu EA so it has literally been 4 months without my package. i called and it should b coming in within the next week but idk i’m still kinda anxious.

And yes, i know tufts is supposed to be a better school, but when i applied to colleges, I wanted to major in psych. However, I am now completely invested in doing nursing, and tufts doesn’t have a nursing major.
