TASP 2019

essay sharing seems fun! i don’t know how, but I’d love to if we figure it out :slight_smile:

when do you guys think we’ll get back a response?

Hopefully tomorrow! It hasn’t been sent out this late in years

Heylo also have been a lurker on this thread for a while… I am soo anxious to see the results but I know the chances are slim and I shouldn’t get my hopes up. Do you guys know how many applicants are selected for interviews?

It’s about a tenth of the applicants so probably somewhere around 120

Yeah I think it’s like 6% and then 3% actually get in

Id be totally down to share essays if yall are, also jeez that rejection letter spiked my anxiety through the roof

The TASS (sophomore seminar) finalist notifications have been sent out. The TASP ones should be coming out soon. They came out 5 days later last year.

we could copy and be paste shareable links! Just make sure they are on view only, just in case. I will post mine tomorrow after I’ve transferred them from my school account which is private to my personal :slight_smile:

Crossing my fingers for tomorrow!! Ugh, the suspense is killing me

Part of my essay and why I want to go to TASP so bad :frowning:

is unique to my town and I’ve memorized each aisle, filling my cart with the unique experiences my environment has to offer. I hope to join a TASP community where I can contribute my informal and formal education while learning from others to mutually achieve a broader view of the world. I’m fortunate to be receiving an education at all, but I aspire to be part of an intellectual adventure that extends beyond a textbook-fed classroom, one that uses personal experiences and discussion - an environment that ultimately acts as a medium for movement and supplement for knowledge and empowerment as we hunt the “whys” and dissect the “hows”.

@blackberries that part is really good :slight_smile:

@lmo2021 did TASS come out 5 days later or TASP?

Hey guys , I’ve been stalking this thread for sometimes and I really find all your advices and tips useful.
I don’t know why the waiting is this long, I hope it’s gonna be out today

Any one got his results yet?

nah

on TASP’s facebook page right now. i can barely handle the waiting

Has abyone recived a notification?

getting that email is going to be interesting because if i make it as a finalist (overwhelmingly likely i won’t) i wont be able to concentrate on schoolwork because of how happy and excited i’ll be but if i get straight rejected i also won’t be able to concentrate on schoolwork because of how dejected i’ll be…
not a great time since i have three huge tests this week

also @shikinami i just wanted to say i love your un and profile picture. good taste in anime

@parousia literally took the words out of my mouth, its crazy how selective they are fam. their acceptance rate is akin to standford, (literally the hardest college to get into in the country). Heres hopin’ we’re the select few I guess
