I just got into UMass Amherst, BS in Computer Science, with a Chancellors Award 
But Iād trade that for a spot at RA at UW Seattle .-.
I got into Purdue without any scholarship 
@aerospace15 They donāt email them because they know the wait is what kills! Itās the stereotypical anxiety that comes along with waiting for a college letter that generations of scholars have gone through 
Man I hate Sundays haha. Hopefully letters come out tomorrow 
@uwhusky1997 I have to agree with you bro, because those links are kind of newish, Or at least I never noticed them before? To put them on applicants pages then possibly deny them (hopefully not) does seem a bit cruel.
Iām starting to become more scared thinking about the amount of people that applied and the small amount of people that get gold lettersā¦
Tomorrow!
@uwhusky1997 I just calculated the math based on the post regarding how many applicants were sent in, correct me If Iām wrong but If there were 36,528 applicants and 2/3 of the position is given to Instate, so thatās 24,352, and 6400 Is believed to be the amount of Freshman this year in Cohort, thatās approx. 26% chance of getting in! That seems way too unrealistic and for OOS Students thatās even less of a chance. It seems a bit unrealistic. Now what we know is that the School has had a 55% acceptance rate since 2013, So if you told me 12,176 Students got accepted but Only half will be attending due to other factors or opportunities thatās more believable. Now for an individuals chance It just goes without saying, UW considers so many factors a person with bad stats but amazing potential can get inā¦ Have faith guys (:
Thank you for that! Have you gotten a letter yet? The wait is almost unbearable haha. I need to calm down and have confidence in my application as an individual, disregarding the estimated acceptance rates and what not 
Unfortunately nothing yet! Iām from the Everett area so hopefully It comes sooner then later! Donāt worry bro our kind of persistence, patience and attitudes donāt go unnoticed hopefully weāll be joining the #NewHuskies2015!
Wusawu, I think the breakdown would be approximately as follows:
36,528 total applicants:
11,278 resident; 25,250 nonresident
Total accepted: 16,500 (est.)
Assume, based on last few years, acceptance rate for resident: 65%
Number of residents accepted: 7,331
If residents are 2/3 of class of 6,400, or 4,224, resident yield is about 66%.
Based on above, can estimate nonresidents as follows:
Number of nonresidents accepted: 9,169
Est. acceptance rate for all nonresidents (OOS and international): 36%
Number of nonresidents accepted: 9,169
If nonresidents are 1/3 of class of 6,400, or 2,176, nonresident yield is about 24%.
@UWfromCAā nonresident acceptance rate is about 36%? And itās probably even lower this year. Now Iām super worried 
36% would be worst case scenario for this year, dropping from last yearās 48% because of ~20% increase in nonresident applications this year. Perhaps they will admit more (10,000) and expect a slightly lower yield, so that the nonresident admission rate is around 40%.
All of these estimated percentages are good to know, thanks for taking the time to inform us
@UWfromCAā I agree with @uwhusky1997ā , you are so helpful!! And Iām from California too which is awesome
Has there been any rejection letters yet? Iām wondering if they are sent later or at the same time
@uwhusky1997 Iām curious about this too
A nice way for CA residents to gauge their chances of acceptance is to see what UCās theyāve already gotten into. If youāve gotten into UC Davis or above, youāre most likely in. If youāre currently deciding between UCI and UCSB, you will probably get in as well. If youāve only received a welcome packet from UCSC or below, then Iād consider myself a little borderline.
Best of luck!
so no oneās unofficial transcript link has been loading right?? mine isnāt loading and just went to āthe page cannot be displayedā. I think my stats are pretty up to par but i rushed a reaaally crappy essay so Iām worried as hell. also, has anyone outside of seattle received their letters yet?
@Coriander23ā Iām a OSS and waitlisted by UC Davis for Mechanical Engineering. Thoughts? And Iām from NY.
Does anyone know how many people typically get waitlisted?
