<p>watercannon, is ‘illbeback’ ur ID?
U didnt get any fin aid?</p>
<p>so well cud u ppl post here abt the ppl you know who got into non HYPM colleges frm India and actually got aid…
We know some ppl here got into Duke with aid …tell abt all others with info</p>
<p>i agree with vampiro. the UPenn session was completely cra p. I knew most of the stuff already.</p>
<p>But the part abt the same essay coming from 4 different places was funny.</p>
<p>Nope… I’llbeback is at Duke… I know him but im not him…</p>
<p>And i didnt apply for financial aid, but the other three indians in my year at brown all applied and none of them got any… Maybe it was just my year, but unless you play some sport at an internationa level or you have MAJOR influence, brown with financial aid isnt going to be a safety for sure… normal or reach school, depending on your stats more likely…</p>
<p>sachit you came too. Man we could have met but sorry for not calling (actually I didnt get time to access the net otherwise I’d have posted here). So do you think you’ll be applying to Penn and taking the interview.</p>
<p>Well from what I know there is a guy from DPS RKpuram who went to Stanford with full aid. Then I think 4 Indians went to dartmouth with aid. Same for Upenn and then 2-3 to JHU.and the like.</p>
<p>“But the part abt the same essay coming from 4 different places was funny.”</p>
<p>and it was totally made up. No one is so foolish (not even in India)</p>
<p>Vampiro i am from DPS RKP too and the guy’s name who earned 95% at Stanford (and at Columbia and Upenn too) is Karan Misra…i don’t know him personally but from what i know, he was an average student and his SAT score also wasn’t that great(in mid 1400s)…but he was the president of the EXUN cllub which is like a 5 member group of computer nerds in our school…so obviously he was reallllly good at computers and won a lot of events…</p>
<p>Hey I am president of my schools computer club too hehe.
So lets see if I get thru.
So whats up with you nowadays…where have you reached in the application process.</p>
<p>hmmm…just completed my carnegie mellon essay…stanford, berkeley, illinois uc still left!!..wat about u??</p>
<p>temme did u complete your CSS profile??..i havent even started…is there a deadline or something??</p>
<p>Yes there is but CSS profile should come in after the apps.
Carnegie Mellon eh so that means you are not looking for finaid are you.</p>
<p>I have just planned out the MIT and common app essay.</p>
<p>no for css and all it is 15-20 days after app deadlines</p>
<p>it means that the deadlines are in months of december-january right?? in another thread a person called lakshmi said that it has to completed by tuesday…what does that mean??</p>
<p>hello dude u dont need to fill in CSS… u r an intel …no need of css…other forms and def. not tuesday</p>
<p>yep not tuesday…who the heck said that anyway. And you do need aid then so why Carnegie Mellon.</p>
<p>Lakshmi says
</p>
<p>oh she was talking about the Early Decision deadline. She is applying to Brown ED</p>
<p>i think it was a misconception…but if you don’t apply for aid now, you can’t apply for it during the stay of your college…a lot of people have told me that if you perform well in the 1st or the second year, you increase your chances of getting an aid…</p>
<p>not that even she was talking abt her own personal deadlines…she was saying that she wanted to complete it by tuesday not the official deadline</p>
<p>hey you still did not answer are you serious with Carnegie Mellon as it does not offer any finaid or scholarship</p>
