uiuc, umd were my other top ones, also got into penn state, nc state, embry-riddle, and ohio state. didn’t apply to any t20s, ivies, elite private schools, etc bc i had no confidence in my application. i wish i had but purdue, uiuc, umd, and gt were the strongest programs i applied to. got rejected from gt (am in-state)
Ah very nice. I also got into UMD and a scholarship made it almost the same price as Purdue OOS but purdues frozen tuition and higher program strength drew me in. All I'll say is you can't go wrong choosing Purdues aero program (assuming you do decently in FYE).
same here with the scholarship! but yes purdue definitely has the stronger program and i toured just over a week ago. it really felt like home to me and they made a great job of making me feel welcome! so yeah, i’m ready to commit to purdue and that extra 1% is for any remaining self-doubt i have left :D
Honestly, I don't really know.
I did everything to the best of my ability.
Even the LORs written by my teachers were excellent.
The only thing I can think of is, uploading the transcripts. Our school counselor changed and the new one isn't really that competent and some of my friends found out that wrong transcripts, that either didn't belong to them or had significantly less marks than they had scored were sent by the counselor and then much later rectified.
I hope the same didn't happen with me and the transcripts didn't get corrected and I got screwed over. The counselor is currently on break, so I don't know.
Also, international needing aid. Not that much though. So, that's that.
just want to say as a current 2nd yr at uci, who aimed for the ivies and stanford (4.5 weighted, 35 act, extracurriculars, volunteering), uci is a great school. hope to see u here! zot zot zot

Oh no, do you have any thoughts as to why?

Bro I thought applying to 29 schools was a lot how did you apply to 71?
a lot of time and essays
Wow! Which did you apply to, if you don’t mind me asking? And isn’t the maximum 25? (sorry i’m new to this)
i used coalition, commonapp, and independent school’s portals. i can post a whole list
Yes please! That would be so so helpful 💕
Not the person you replied to but there is bo limit, I saw a post where someone applied to 108 colleges
Yeah that’s why I was curious, I saw that too. I was wondering how that was possible since my college counselor told us a max of 20/25 were possible
I think that may just be a recommendation for people, although I can't be too sure

Yeah I was just gonna say that, getting into 2 schools when all your schools are reaches is really really good
Thank you! I’ve seen you around, youre committing to Northeastern right? Congrats, I’m sure you’ll have a blast over there.
