Accepted to LSA on 1/16!
My application was complete (All documents received) on 1/02.
Still waiting for my financial aid package as of today 1/28.
Here are my stats/information:
HS GPA: 2.96/4.0
SAT: Taken once in 2015, 1380/2400
2 Gap years taken after high school, I worked during this time.
I am coming from an OOS Community College majoring in Computer Science.
GPA: 4.0/4.0, 57 credits completed (Calculus 2, Physics, DS&A, English... etc) with 14 in progress for the spring semester (Calculus 3, Physics 2, and some more maths).
White male, first-generation college student, family income <$45k, EFC around 9000.
ECs: Not much, member of PTK, some volunteering, and that's about it.
*Edit: As of 1/23 I was notified that I have been selected as a Jack Kent Cooke Foundation CC Transfer semifinalist.
Also applied to: Some instate safety schools, Pitt, UW-Seattle, UCLA and UCB, UVA, Yale, Cornell, Brown, Duke, Northwestern, Vanderbilt, USC, Stanford, Carnegie Mellon, Northeastern, Rice, WUSTL, and NYU.
I haven't received any other decisions yet, but I think Pitt will come soon.
Yo, I got that the other day too! I submitted my app on the 23rd but they didn't receive all my info until the 28th. Went away quickly though. I would say I'm hoping to hear something soon but given the fact that I applied so close to the deadline and that my stats aren't "exemplary", I'm not really holding my breath.
It was weird. Maybe we'll hear back today alongside the regular decision people
Sorry to hear that. when did you apply, what were your stats and who was your admissions counselor? Sorry to pester you so much.
Although I am pretty bummed for getting rejected twice, even though my stats are pretty good, I am not too bothered. My success does not rely on them. If they don't want me, I am not desperate.
That's a good attitude to have! sorry the news couldn't be better and thanks for the information.
I have a 3.88 GPA so I guess my chances aren't as high as I'd hoped
