Ok good things will come with patience, I need to believe this to survive another 6 weeks.

Also all the ED accepted students will need to withdraw from Penn state so that will clear more UP acceptances.

i’m nervous i would much prefer a deferral then a 2+2…i’ve never felt so nervous

ohio state was my top school and i got rejected but i will say that one was easy because they gave a set date. kinda ripped the bandaid off fast. this is just a slow death i feel

C27 data:

Total Applications University-wide 128,201
Total First-Year Students University-wide 16,239

That is about 13%. That data is not clear. Acceptance rate, yield, etc.

Deleted by poster.

no people who applied ed to other schools

Got it…thanks! That may put a small dent in the numbers. And that’s if they actually follow up to formally withdraw.

Totally!

So…somebody posted on another area, that these aren’t ā€œtrue deferralsā€ and this is their way of saying they don’t have time to review all apps by 12/24 promise date….based on the deferred post above, I’m leaning this way…again, just my view and not fact.

I was responding to another comment on the UC applications. They have 4 essays (350 words) each. Apologies for the confusion.

It could be 3.8 weighted and it could mean a 3.4uw…+we know that student only had 6 ā€œrigorousā€ courses - remember, THAT is 2/3 of the decision.

Who wants to hear a scary story to pass time? :nerd_face::yum:

that did NOT make me feel better lol
