༼つ ◕_◕༽つ G I V E⭐A⭐W A V E ༼つ ◕_◕༽つ
22:53 RaspberryEnthusiast: ୧༼ಠ益ಠ༽୨ NO MORE R's ୧༼ಠ益ಠ༽୨
22:55 RaspberryEnthusiast: I probably shouldn't read so much into people who applied around the same time as I did getting decisions before me right
22:55 RaspberryEnthusiast: like they went complete/UR the same day I did or later and got WL or R
22:56 RaspberryEnthusiast: mayhaps there are some As left 👀
22:56 nirvana: for which school jw
22:56 RaspberryEnthusiast: duke
22:57 nirvana: hmmm
22:57 nirvana: neutral methinks...but i know nothing
22:58 Volatilecrocodile: I’m working with “no news is better than bad news” which is ... sorta helping the constant dread
22:59 RaspberryEnthusiast: my biggest fear is... getting in off a WL and having to decide whether to take it or gamble for getting off a better one
22:59 nirvana: me with nyu
22:59 RaspberryEnthusiast: if I get in off a WL I should probably just take the first offer though, it's so unlikely to get in off of one let alone more than one
22:59 nirvana: thats true
22:59 RaspberryEnthusiast: the problem is just because they give you so little time to decide once they let you in from thr wl
23:00 nirvana: omg forgot about that i wonder whats the shortest timeline
23:02 RaspberryEnthusiast: I'm also in a weird place about housing which is why I really want to have solid plans by end of may even though I know there might be more openings after the second deposit deadline
23:02 RaspberryEnthusiast: because if I end up in davis it's already exorbitant there and would just be worse if I tried to get it any later than that I think
23:08 CEOoftheUCIwaitlist: go to bed losers
23:08 CEOoftheUCIwaitlist: *checks status*
23:10 FriendlyForestFrog: @CEOoftheUCIwaitlist: bed? I haven't slept in 2021. Sleeping for me IS refreshing my status
23:13 Janetsvoid: Has anyone else become like near alcoholics this cycle
23:14 DatBoiWaddup: No but I've considered drinking more often lately lmao
23:14 Janetsvoid: I mean I’m petite so can’t drink a ton anyway but I hate to say the daily wine or margarita has been bad
23:14 Janetsvoid: And work doesn’t help
23:16 FriendlyForestFrog: @Janetsvoid: i've been drinking more coffee (decaf) for some reason..something about the smell calms me down a bit
23:16 PhobicWantingBadger: Has anyone heard of or have attempted to reach out to see about extensions on the admittance payment deadlines?
23:17 Janetsvoid: @FriendlyForestFrog: Oh I can def relate to that. Except with wine
23:17 FriendlyForestFrog: @PhobicWantingBadger: I got an extension from one school after reaching out. Was super easy. They didn't have a problem at all
23:17 FriendlyForestFrog: @Janetsvoid: :-)
23:19 mma23a: DOGE
23:20 PhobicWantingBadger: Thanks for the information frog
23:21 FriendlyForestFrog: @PhobicWantingBadger: np :-)
23:22 Janetsvoid: @FriendlyForestFrog: are you waiting on NYU too?
23:22 FriendlyForestFrog: I feel like most schools would rather give an extension than you turn them down since they are trying to YP
23:22 FriendlyForestFrog: @Janetsvoid: Yep, on Hold at NYU
23:22 lil-froggo: @PhobicWantingBadger: I asked for one and didn’t get it, but they were still friendly and the door may
23:23 lil-froggo: remain open
23:23 FriendlyForestFrog: @lil-froggo: oh, that sucks
23:23 FriendlyForestFrog: I did ask about a week ago, so maybe that was the difference
23:23 lil-froggo: it’s ok!
23:23 lil-froggo: yeah that’s also true
23:23 lil-froggo: i had 1 day to deposit lol
23:24 FriendlyForestFrog: The deposits are a lot of dough...especially since my finances really took a hit this past year
23:24 FriendlyForestFrog: and I applied to 30 schools with almost no waivers...
23:25 Janetsvoid: There are so many of us on hold
23:25 lil-froggo: worth it 😆
23:25 Janetsvoid: Wow 30?! That’s serious dedication
23:26 FriendlyForestFrog: @Janetsvoid: I think it was worth it to blanket the T14, but I think I went overboard
23:26 FriendlyForestFrog: I panic applied to 2 schools last week, shouldn't have done that
23:26 FriendlyForestFrog: @Janetsvoid: NYU is being super cautious
23:27 FriendlyForestFrog: Did NYU have a deposit deadline for their admits today?
23:27 lil-froggo: i mean you’re probably only applying once
23:27 FriendlyForestFrog: @lil-froggo: true
23:27 Janetsvoid: I think their scholly deadline was today?
23:27 lil-froggo: oh do they?
23:27 Janetsvoid: Deposit deadline end of April
23:28 FriendlyForestFrog: hopefully we'll see some movement then...I guess they are going to take care of the Holds before dipping into their WL
23:28 FriendlyForestFrog: oh...just saw they have like no WLs
23:29 Janetsvoid: Yeah I don’t think those WL are real either. They were logged before the “hold”
23:29 Janetsvoid: Option was created
23:30 FriendlyForestFrog: I still don't quite get the difference b/w NYU Hold and WLs at other schools..
23:30 FriendlyForestFrog: by keeping the Holds stringing along so late into the cycle, it's basically acting as a WL
23:31 Janetsvoid: I think the main difference is the NYU holds dont necessarily mean they’ve reviewed your application
23:31 Janetsvoid: In full
23:31 UghSad: the nyu scholly deadline is tomorrow
23:31 UghSad: 4/16
23:31 FriendlyForestFrog: @Janetsvoid: I want my money back then, lol
23:31 Janetsvoid: And that they’ll give holds an A before deposit deadlines
23:31 Janetsvoid: Or WL/R
23:32 Janetsvoid: @FriendlyForestFrog: LOL right
23:32 FriendlyForestFrog: I guess that's good. I wish all schools had the same deposit deadlines
23:32 FriendlyForestFrog: I feel like I had to waste money today bc some schools are working on a different schedule
23:32 Janetsvoid: @UghSad: ah gotcha thanks
23:33 Janetsvoid: I wish I had your NYU a so I can even contemplate schollys
23:34 FriendlyForestFrog: If another school accepts me or I get off a WL, I'm going to ask for a discount equal to my paid deposit at the previous school, lol
23:34 UghSad: Np, some people have a later deadline because NYU has been slow with some schollys but I think a lot of people will withdraw tomorrow so hopefully you guys will see some movement
23:35 FriendlyForestFrog: @UghSad: hopefully!
23:36 Janetsvoid: @UghSad: do you know where you’re going yet?
23:37 UghSad: I'm leaning CLS
23:38 FriendlyForestFrog: @UghSad: you've had a great cycle!
23:38 Janetsvoid: ^^seriously though!
23:38 FriendlyForestFrog: congrats!
23:38 Janetsvoid: But also your stats are stellar
23:39 FriendlyForestFrog: ^^^yes!
23:39 UghSad: @FriendlyForestFrog: thanks! It's been a crazy cycle I'm definitely happy with my options (though I wanted more lower t14 $, but whatever)
23:39 FriendlyForestFrog: I see you also got the Berk R
23:40 UghSad: Lol berk left me in read for so long
23:40 UghSad: just to R me
23:40 FriendlyForestFrog: I was a little offended at how quickly Berk sent me the R, hurt my feelings
23:40 Janetsvoid: Is berk known for being unpredictable?
23:40 Janetsvoid: @UghSad: I’m shocked they just Red you
23:41 UghSad: I've heard they're picky with GPAs and KJDs?
23:41 UghSad: I think they just hit their quota of above both medians and were like yup we can toss this one
23:42 FriendlyForestFrog: I've just always loved the Bay Area, so expensive tho
23:42 FriendlyForestFrog: Still holding out (slim) hope for Stanford..been ghosted
23:42 UghSad: I would not have stayed on the berk waitlist so honestly probably the right choice on their part
23:43 UghSad: @FriendlyForestFrog: I don't get why Stanford is so slow it is mid april
23:44 FriendlyForestFrog: @UghSad: right? And I don't think they have as much of a YP concern as some of the other T14s
23:45 Janetsvoid: I think there is some merit to saying that every school has had YP concerns this year bc it’s been an unusual year for them too.
23:45 UghSad: @FriendlyForestFrog: I just think they know they can do what they want so take their time... most people will still say yes to Stanford even if they are already deposited
23:45 Janetsvoid: Just so many applicants and high scores
23:46 FriendlyForestFrog: agree with both of you
23:46 UghSad: I think a lot of schools are concerned about overenrolling too more than just yield
23:47 FriendlyForestFrog: I just hope the T14s still have money to offer should I get an A
23:47 Janetsvoid: @UghSad: right agreed that’s what I meant
23:47 Janetsvoid: @FriendlyForestFrog: I’m not banking on it :(
23:48 FriendlyForestFrog: @Janetsvoid: I would be crushed with a T14 acceptance and no money...I mean I would be thankful, but it wouldn't be practical
23:48 UghSad: @FriendlyForestFrog: which ones are you still waiting on
23:49 FriendlyForestFrog: @UghSad: WL at CLS, Penn, UVA, Mich, Duke, UCLA, WashU and UGA. Hold at NYU. Pending at Stanford and Alabama.
23:50 FriendlyForestFrog: R at Yale, Berk and Texas
23:50 Janetsvoid: I’m still salty HLS took six months to WL me
23:50 UghSad: I think that after deposit deadlines $$ will hopefully open up from withdrawals but schools also have so many people to chose I feel like they can be stingy
23:50 FriendlyForestFrog: @Janetsvoid: maybe they'll make it up to you :-)))
23:51 FriendlyForestFrog: @UghSad: I know. The odds aren't great
23:51 Janetsvoid: @FriendlyForestFrog: haha oh god don’t even give me hope. I’ve already written an I’m passionate loci
23:51 MomentousMercifulCoati: Berk 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
23:52 UghSad: waitlists are definitely a wildcard this year tho so I would have some hope
23:52 nirvana: which schools have yp probs?
23:52 UghSad: define yp problems
23:52 FriendlyForestFrog: @UghSad: I'm dep'd at Minn for now, and I'm ok with that if no WLs come through
23:52 WrathfulHighfalutinBandicoot: When do we think T25 will start to move their waitlists this cycle
23:52 UghSad: Michigan waitlists everyone, possibly a yp problem
23:52 nirvana: like struggle with getting people to come once they get the A...or do any of them even have that
23:53 nirvana: OH
23:53 Janetsvoid: Define struggle haha
23:53 Janetsvoid: I think NYU and penn have pretty low yield
23:53 Janetsvoid: Relatively
23:53 nirvana: ohh didnt know that
23:53 nirvana: need my wl to move to the sweet A
23:53 UghSad: @FriendlyForestFrog: you just need one option you're happy with and if something else pans out that's super great
23:54 UghSad: Chicago has a trash yield
23:54 nirvana: :o
23:54 FriendlyForestFrog: @UghSad: Agreed!
23:54 MasterPain: anyone ever gotten their unconditional scholarship increased and made conditional
23:54 nirvana: this stuff is on their 509s huh
23:55 UghSad: Ik the 7 sage predictor has sucked this yr but it makes it pretty easy to look at yield data if you sort by rank
23:55 UghSad: https://7sage.com/predictor/
23:55 UghSad: There is probably an easier way than that to tho lol
23:56 UghSad: @MasterPain: did that happen to you
23:56 MasterPain: no but i feel like itd be an interesting gamble
23:56 nirvana: thank u!
23:56 MasterPain: like, hey, give me 10k extra a year and make 20k of the new total conditional
23:56 MasterPain: bet on yourself
23:57 UghSad: I have not heard of that happening only the other way
0:00 FriendlyForestFrog: anyone else run the numbers with a full scholly and realized loans for COL for 3 years is still a huge amount of money...?
0:01 UghSad: @FriendlyForestFrog: especially in cities :/
0:04 FriendlyForestFrog: @UghSad: yes! It made me rethink some of my full schollys; like the marginal cost of another school with slightly better outcomes that is in a cheaper place is actually not that huge
0:05 FriendlyForestFrog: also, calculating the size of my loans taking into account interest accrued over the 3 years was a big AHA moment for me in this process
0:07 FriendlyForestFrog: someone posted a really helpful spreadsheet on reddit where u just input numbers and it calculates loan size at graduation and tells you your estimated monthly payment based on how long u want to be repaying
0:07 RaspberryEnthusiast: hey, can someone else who's admitted to w&m tell me if there's some kind of admitted students thing on the 21st or if I made it up in a fever dream?
0:07 RaspberryEnthusiast: I could have sworn it was a thing that was happening but now I can't find a record of it anywhere
0:08 UghSad: Schools know that so I feel like they adjust their scholarship offers accordingly sometimes (cough cough Duke being like ah NC is cheap)
0:08 UghSad: there's definitely a few loan calculators I have looked at, interest sucks
0:09 FriendlyForestFrog: yes. I wish there was no interest for Stafford/GradPlus while enrolled in law school
0:09 UghSad: or at least really low interest and lower loan fees
0:12 FriendlyForestFrog: *sigh* bedtime. have a goodnight everyone. sending u positive vibes! :-))
0:13 UghSad: Gn :)
0:14 RaspberryEnthusiast: god I really somehow must have fever dreamed an entire event????
0:15 RaspberryEnthusiast: I swear I wrote it in my calendar book and everything
0:19 RaspberryEnthusiast: FOUND IT I KNEW I WASN'T CRAZY
0:19 lil-froggo: @UghSad: nice cycle 🤩
0:31 UghSad: @lil-froggo: thnx :)
0:41 LearnedFineBombay: raspberry can i ask u a q

1:28 RaspberryEnthusiast: NYU has chosen violence
1:28 RaspberryEnthusiast: This means war
1:29 LearnedFineBombay: btw rasp i was gonna ask how u were feeling
1:29 VioletSadUmbrellabird: its a certain type of cruelty goddamn
1:29 RaspberryEnthusiast: @LearnedFineBombay: about what lol
1:29 LearnedFineBombay: results
1:30 RaspberryEnthusiast: Oh. Pleasantly surprised by a few of the WLs I snuck onto, not surprised at As I didn’t get and Rs I did (except Michigan)
1:30 RaspberryEnthusiast: Hopeful about WLs, maybe too much so
1:30 LearnedFineBombay: bro you deserve much better
1:30 LearnedFineBombay: i hope you get off a bomb waitlist or reapply
1:30 LearnedFineBombay: i really think it was applying in february
1:30 RaspberryEnthusiast: I’m not reapplying no matter what, I just can’t burn another year doing nothing
1:31 LearnedFineBombay: understandable
1:31 RaspberryEnthusiast: Thanks for the thoughts though, I appreciate it
1:31 LearnedFineBombay: of course!! i am wishing the best for u!
1:31 RaspberryEnthusiast: <3
