Carnegie Mellon Class of 2028 Official Thread

The A2C discord has a poll where applicants can react to the message based on their decision. 120 is the number of people who reacted to the waitlist option.

A2C, just like CC, is not an accurate metric since it’s mostly high achieving students. However, no one reported any acceptance or rejection so that would likely mean they only released waitlists today.

Did all decision notifications come out?

Naw :skull::skull:

Daughter waitlist. She’s not keeping her spot on waitlist.

this is a porportionally insane number
 making me value my waitlist a lot less

DS waitlisted for CS too.

did waitlists for drama come out?

I got waitlisted.

Did someone say everything will be released ? Where did that news come out ?

I heard it here and reddit - based on people’s conversations with admissions. But clearly admissions gave inconsistent information again - since a lot of people still do not have decisions. Also, I still can’t get over how everyone that received a decision today was waitlisted.

WL are 100% for the benefit of the schools. And more specifically to your question
a backup (+) for each acceptance. No matter who doesn’t yield, they have someone similarish to go to from the WL, and then some.

yeah this is absolutely insane i actually don’t know what’s going on
 they’ve had a WEEK now to fix all of this and they still can’t get it right

So the priority wait-list on the wait-list form is basically meaningless?

My husband’s nephew hasn’t received any updates and he’s applying for CS.

Exactly
FAFSA is a big reason. Without aid letter not many will go to CMU.
