My kiddo’s phone is dead and she’d like to check her decision… what is the applicant portal address? We can’t find it on my phone. TIA!

And congrats to those admitted! Good luck to those going elsewhere. :grin:

Rejected. And now I’m heading to a funeral. Honestly, I think I’m just going to cry for a bit in the back. It’s been a rough day…

Not looking very ā€œtest optionalā€ at the moment

Major: Neuroscience
GPA: 4.0 UW
School doesn’t do rank, but am in Cum Laude society (top 10% of class)
Full IB Diploma
SAT: test optional
ECs: Editor of yearbook, editor of newspaper, honor council (11th & 12th), chem & microbio summer classes, tutoring kids in math & science, organized Alzheimer’s awareness fundraiser at my school, exceeded required community service hours

I think my ECs were lackluster, and TO probably didn’t help my case either

So Northwestern was actually a safety for me and I had only applied cause my counsellor told me to. It is only now I found out that it is competitive and elite. I’ll probably not attend as I have Cal already for CS.
