<p>Deferred from SCS </p>
<p>God, I spent so much time trying to get into this college :(</p>
<p>did you guys receive a letter or see online???</p>
<p>Accepted into HSS for ED I according to the site.
And about a year ago when I posted this: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/carnegie-mellon-university/1069738-legacy-early-decision-how-much-does-help-going-into-h-ss.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/carnegie-mellon-university/1069738-legacy-early-decision-how-much-does-help-going-into-h-ss.html</a>
People that I know thought I had NO chance.
I learned a few things:
- Do the ACT as well as the SAT
- Don’t get intimidated by the Carnegie Mellon statistics- I am below the 25th percentile in GPA, 75th percentile in math on ACT, 25th percentile in verbal, 25th percentile in composite, and only took 4 AP courses
- Showing interest must help- I went there twice, emailed them twice, even facebooked them, and went to a couple events they hosted
- Brand yourself in an activity
- I majored in a major that is pretty unknown (Decision Science)</p>
<p>Go to the “where am I in the process” page and click on the “Admission Decision Letter” button.</p>
<p><a href=“https://acis.as.cmu.edu/application/display.html[/url]”>https://acis.as.cmu.edu/application/display.html</a></p>
<p>I dont think I have a button on my page…</p>
<p>If you can view it, it will be under the red words: “Admission and Financial Aid Notification”</p>
<p>yeah theres nothing underneath “Admission and Financial Aid notification”…</p>
<p>Accepted to MCS! :)</p>
<p>Nothing for me…argh.</p>
<p>Im guessing SCS and tepper sent out decisions earlier. I just checked my where am i page and i do not see anything on the decision box nor a decision letter</p>
<p>I applied SCS, but no decision :(. I hope that doesn’t mean I got rejected.</p>
<p>Well my decision is not online. I got my letter today, but the postage says they were mailed yesterday. I just got mine because I live in Pittsburgh. lol</p>
<p>i still have no word from them…im frustrated</p>
<p>rejected from SCS. good luck everyone</p>
<p>Still nothing. I guess ill just wait for my rejection tomorrow…</p>
<p>i wonder what makes them send acceptences to some people earlier than others</p>
<p>It’s probably something to do with the random processing. Our letters must have been sent later than their letters.</p>
<p>hmm…at least thats better than alphabetical…my last name starts with y lol</p>
<p>didn’t get mine today. This is just ridiculous. Im tired of waiting now</p>
<p>I applied to SCS and no response Yet.</p>
