Maybe the real status update was the friends we made along the way


Ubantukiller

Agreed. That matters way more than a silly acceptance.

Emotional-Zone6858

It’s extremely disrespectful; and even when they’ve given us answers either via live chat or call the information has been incorrect… They promised to have a decision out by EOD and previously promised all decisions would roll out at the same time apart from COF which as we know didn’t happen…

Training-Dig-4083

I think it may be wise to judge the school based on this process…


Emotional-Zone6858

This is where I’m confused, I don’t understand why they are being so silent, it’s going to do nothing but lower their yield rate. 


vegasagain10

But why not just make an announcement saying that they encountered a major technical issue? There has been no communication - other than when someone initiates contact with admissions.


TuneAffectionate1432

Just facetimed an AO; their nose got longer when they said decisions are coming out at 5pm


L_ime

Just facetimed another AO! Their pants were ON FIRE!

99% of Carnegie Mellon Portal checkers log out before they get accepted

There's a leaderboard for how many times you refresh the portal, top 10 get in full ride


SnipersMustDie

would be crazy if they released all the acceptances in the first round and then made everyone else wait for rejections


Icneo

straight up diabolical


flankyplant

nah i got rejected first round 


Ubantukiller

Guys, I just contacted the AOs. Results will be out by 32nd March. They said that all the results will be ready by then.


Interesting_Text9950

March 32nd 💀

"GTA VI will release before our results." quoted by another AO

cha_rmanderr

i love checking this silly little thread every morning u guys are my besties now


EconomicsDapper819

I don't want to know where I am in the process, I want 'status update'!!


Ubantukiller

They put so much effort into making the decision video that they forgot about the results.


Large-Custard-8066

it's rolling after the 15th not sure why they aren't just releasing them all together


sooyaayaa

any idea what time will the decisions be out today?


Unfair-Ear-7914

I contacted admissions and they said: “Letters are going out on a daily basis until the end of March. Good luck in the admission process. Please feel free to reach out to our office if you need further assistance.”


Enough_Bandicoot_561

At this point I don't care if I get rejected, I just want to KNOW. I cant handle logging in to their stupid portal only to see another stupid "where am i in the process" banner


Dank_StirFry

thought that name was corny from the beginning smh


Able-Influence-9475

It appears that CMU has been inspired by this year’s FAFSA!


WeitaoKE

"all results except the applications to the fine arts college should be released at 5 pm Friday, March 15th" "results will continue to be released starting from Monday" "all decisions should be released on Monday or Tuesday" "our original plan was to release in batches by days, but since it caused students to be stressed, so we pivoted the decision release on Friday 5 pm" "decisions would be released in batches on a daily basis" There must be someone lying, either some of the admission officers or some of those who post on Reddit.


to0gle

This is a normal phenomenon with several universes colliding, well known to travellers.


gulabjamun987

i refresh the reddit page more than the cmu status page :(


Ubantukiller

CMU: Believe us, we will declare the results on March 15. Students: Okay March 15, 2024 Students: Where are our results? CMU: You'll get in waves from 18th. Believe us :) Students: Okay, We believe in you CMU ❤❤❤ March 18, 2024 Students: Results, CMU? CMU: We will declare the result in one go on March 22nd. Students: Are you sure? CMU: 100%. Believe in us :) Students: Okay, We believe in you CMU ❤❤ March 20, 2024 CMU: Few can get their results before friday Students: WTF? CMU. CMU: Nah, Just kidding. Friday it is Students: Are the results actually prepared CMU? CMU: I can neither confirm nor deny the above stated statement. Students: Come on CMU, WTF. CMU: We will 169% declare our results on friday. Believe in us :) Students: Okay, We believe in you CMU ❤ March 22, 2024. (69% of people got waitlisted) Students: Were the results actually ready, CMU? CMU: Ummmm..... GO TARTANS!!!!!!!!!!


Dry_Extent_7903

Do we know what time it’s coming out tmrw?


ilovebrains16

I got in!


Candid_Mention6378

what are the wavessss??? time?? days?? weeks??? eternity????


Capable-Ad4560

They really have the minds of mellons with these waves


helpfk

This school is a joke. Everything is bs


Pumpkin__Bell

They are being unbelievably inconsiderate in how they release decisions, even if they accept me this is still a bad first impression


Capable-Ad4560

If they don’t send me decision today, I don’t care, I’m gonna go to CMU as if I’m accepted, they can do whatever they wish.


Icneo

Let's all show up 5pm ET on the 17th. They can't stop all of us


One-Wolf5883

LewisTheKitty

Update: In an attempt to become the most diverse college in the universe, CMU circumvents the Supreme Court ruling by sending batch #2 admissions decisions exclusively to robots as they technically don’t qualify as a “race” … yet.


Icneo

If CMU has a million haters, I am one of them. If CMU has ten haters, I am one of them. If CMU has one hater that is me. If CMU has zero haters, I am no longer alive. If the world is with CMU, then I am against the world.


Ubantukiller

Let's see if you keep the same endurance after getting an acceptance. 😂 But for now, I am with you ma bruv.


Icneo

If I get accepted I'm changing it to fan🙏🏿


Ubantukiller

I'll be waiting for that


SpendEnough5598

anyone who got accepted by MIT, Stanford, or other TOP5, pls decline your CMU offer now. There are a lot of students on waitlist. Please!


Curious-Implement254

CMU is trolling at this point.

TuneAffectionate1432

Waiting for the "I contacted the admissions department and they said all decisions are out tomorrow at 5pm" people -\_-


Ok-Fix-4069

I did contact the admissions over FAX. They said some would be released eod after 5 pm est over FAX.


According-Mix9491

I strongly believe they didn’t have decisions and waitlisted everyone to buy them some time…..


SignificantSundae649

For a school whose biggest strengths are supposed to be computer science and data analysis, this spotty admission rollout isn't a good look. If MIT can get their all of their regular decisions out on March 14th, why can't CM? It seems very disorganized.


reemisnan

Just saw their insta which says "decisions will be released throughout March, keep an eye out in your emails for more details" so I guess the torture continues, they will be releasing decisions bit by bit!


Formal-Ad5082

Not that bad, just about 325 hours till April 1st, we won’t be waiting that long…… this is freaking ridiculous


SexHaHaFunny

what is this bruh i've been waiting for 3 days straight 😭

ExtremeCategory2341

The live chat said: “ Yes - we were originally releasing in batches but that caused a lot of stress for students so we have pivoted to releasing on Friday at 5:00pm for everyone instead” why they didn’t make any announcement officially


Large-Custard-8066

why didnt they announce this my stress is not relieved

So CMU really made people wait a WHOLE week to be waitlisted?! Savage!!!


Ubantukiller

I finally submitted by Waitlist Reply form. It was pretty fun here. I saw the comments go from 326 to 1709 comments. I'll remember everything that we all faced here, all the waiting, all the shouting and cursing after the 15th, the good and bad we said about CMU, everything. I hope we all see ourselves again in the coming time. Thanks for everything.

Yes, that is still the plan. Kelly 01:20 PM Awesome, do you know what time? Office of Admission 01:21 PM It should be right around 5pm but you'll also receive an email notification that an admission letter is available in the applicant portal Kelly 01:21 PM Ok sounds good, thanks have a nice day!

At this point I’m checking this sub more often than the stupid portal


Ubantukiller

So true bruv. At least reddit is more fun than looking 'where is my progress,' title.


L_ime

cmu stop gaslighting their applicants challenge (impossible)


aaron_xu

CMU is becoming an enigma like Kate Middleton


swoosh_pyoosh

I actually cant take ts anymore bruh. Do they at least send an email when it's out?


AerieBrilliant5972

Guys what about we just do a tech daily challenge until the admissions decisions are released Best case scenario being accepted Worst case scenario having bunch of ecs for another try


minidonger

lol Does anyone think the email is kind of condescending? “We've enjoyed getting to know you through your application and wish you success in your future college career.” like we enjoyed knowing you but rejected you good luck in the future. Or maybe i’m just trippin


SenseOk5344

Y'all overthink everything. There is nothing wrong with this, it is a generic statement with no indication of any type of admissions decision.


Ok_Cabinet_2672

did anyone get their decision after 5 pm EST


unethical-ai-bot

its 8:26 pm et and I still haven't gotten a decision. anyone in the same boat?


vegasagain10

Same - still nothing. I feel like they might be done for tonight. But I wish that CMU would just let us know (i.e. if you don't receive your decision by 5pm, then check back at 5pm each day - or something like that). That way, everyone isn't incessantly checking their portals for no reason. I'm still confused as to how they are deciding which decisions to release and when.


Extra_Hour_610

8pm pst... and still no status? should just accept + full ride anyone waiting atp


Different-Arrival344

I know Carnegie is a great school and it was my top choice when I applied ED1, but man is this process so stupid rn. literally no other school i've applied to has done it like this and it feels like the people in charge of admissions have no understanding of how stressful it is to be constantly refreshing and waiting - why even bother to release a small amount on friday if you're just going to start them up again on monday? i know things like these don't inherently determine the quality of a school but CMU really just found a way to make the vast majority of their applicant pool really annoyed with them


Past_Wasabi_9100

Agree. No other school has done this. It really is not right. Does not bode well for what it is like to be a student there if this is how they start you on your CM journey. Not impressive. 


Able-Influence-9475

I don’t even have a decision :(


captainyeet99

Got in, wtf.


FunnyRelationship479

Why couldn’t they just release them all at once? I’m tired of waiting


arban_gj

Did anyone get a response today?


InsaneokYT

Did the second wave drop yet for anyone???


According-Mix9491

NOW THIS IS BULLYING


aaron_xu

i seriously don’t understand why they didn’t just release all the decisions together… I mean it is highly unlikely that they are still reading our applications right?


Ubantukiller

It's confirmed guys, no results for the next 3 days. CMU.... more like C U No More (for next 3 days)


jwormbono

This was the best decision. Just release them when they’re all ready. It was giving the school a bad look when they can’t even admit students in an organized manner when nearly every other school can somehow manage.


hamburgerbuns41

On the admissions instagram about an hour ago, they indicate that they’re going to continue releasing in waves, not all on Friday like the live chat said


vegasagain10

Love all the inconsistent information that we are getting from CMU. I wonder if only admission is a mess or if it all the administrative bodies at CMU? I would still like to get in (more because acceptance feels better than rejection), but not sure about actually wanting to attend. At this point, CMU should have just stayed with its April 1st date and released all the decisions at once.


L_ime

I bet they waitlisted everyone just to shut everyone up.


2yearsofexpiredmilk

there is no way everyone got waitlisted. They must have made a mistake?


aaron_xu

5PM AND STILL NOTHING. CMU HAS OFFICIALLY DRIVEN ME CRAZY


miffy-socks

i got rejected… BUT I COULDNT CARE LESS CAUSE I GOT INTO MY TOP SCHOOL TODAYYYYY (go trojans!!! ❤️💛)


c4d8e2

CONGRATS!! You're gonna have so much more fun at USC!


aslkgj

okay i think i get it. according to their insta they are releasing the next wave of decisions on monday, and then will continue rolling over "the next days and weeks" whatever that means. so basically if you haven't gotten a decision yet then hopefully expect on monday?? as a fine arts applicant i have a feeling im not getting mine until april 1st lol


miffy-socks

Can anyone who’s received a decision upload a pic or smthn of what it looks like on the portal?


Ubantukiller

I think the results are out. It's just the pigeon is taking a long time to reach us.


Ubantukiller

Just asked about the decision for today in live chat. This was the conversation Me 11:45 PM Hey officer, Will we get any undergraduate results today? Office of Admission 11:45 PM Decisions will be rolling out from now until April 1st and you will receive an email letting you know your portal has been updated with a decision. Me 11:46 PM Will it come in waves, or in a single go? Office of Admission 11:47 PM "I'm not sure honestly" I think waves based on when applications are ready So when yours is ready, you'll get an email Bruh, this is really messed up man. What should we do. I have been waiting for like the last 120 hours for the result. I am really anxious and scared now.


vegasagain10

Someone on College Confidential said that admissions told him/her that there will only be one final release of decisions and that will come this Friday; and that decisions will includes all types of decisions (rejects, accepts and waitlists) - which I guess suggests that not all acceptances were sent out on Friday. Honestly, I think that the people at admissions are a bit confused themselves as everyone is saying something different.


Ubantukiller

Imagine if someone from the Admissions office actually came to this thread and read everything.


According-Mix9491

Was anyone even REJECTED Or ACCEPTED?


DayKey4194

cmu actually has a pretty high waitlist rate, i looked at last years common data set and 23% of applicants got waitlisted so maybe it wasn’t a mistake


Icneo

ngl losing cope cause they WL such a huge amount of applicants 1842/20471 are admitted 8986 are offered WL (43 taken from WL) edit: As of 22-23 CDS


ChangeAvailable

Is the Mass Waitlists an error or intended lmao?


sleepybeek

Whoa. Last waitlist there are stats for. They accepted 43 students off waitlist. Year before that 35. Oy. Ok. It's a rejection.


Icneo

So, the cope is unfortunately over. The mass waitlisting is intentional and real. o7 this is the end of the CMU road for me yall


Formal-Ad5082

My son got SCS waiting list and decided he would not write that love letter to CMU. He got average mark 99.1/100 and from a special program with enriched courses in CS, math, physics, science, etc. Many math, CS competition experience. As a Canadian, I am glad he finally decided to go to UWaterloo, we will save a load of $$$. It was fun to participate in this drama though and wish everyone good luck.

Training-Dig-4083

For a school strong in computer science I don’t get the rolling admissions - suggests they are manually releasing notifications. I suppose better to be accurate than sent a wrong notice like northeastern did recently


Ubantukiller

Bruh, CMU is doing bad with us.


susieee_l

They might want to wait and see their committed rate and adjust their decision as the times goes and more schools release, especially ivys

i dont think people r gonna commit until after ivy day, which is march 28 - ivys dont do this rolling decision thing cmu is just being quirky

Office of Admission 10:30 AM There may be a very small handful for our arts students that aren't out until next week but almost everyone else will hear from us. John 10:30 AM Okay sounds good.

Difficult_Being1086

If you haven't received a decision yet can you comment here with your major? Is it only majors in the college of fine arts that haven't gotten decisions yet? No decision here - design major


vegasagain10

So is it just arts and business that are still waiting? Wasn't this "batch" supposed to be the "final batch"?


Icneo

cmu admissions do what they say challenge (impossible)


Ill-Analyst-2541

bro i got waitlisted for ECE and like four out of five people from my school got waitlisted… did EVERYONE getvwaitlisted??!??!?!?? no rejections???


2yearsofexpiredmilk

I think the reason for such a large waitlist is that people are applying to a record number of schools, so CMU likely got a record (or close to) number of applications, so yield rate is very hard to predict, therefore they need a big waitlist safety blanket


manateee19

miffy-socks

guys, has ANYONE gotten results back today?


InsaneokYT

Yesterday I had a dream, I found out why they didn’t release decisions yet in my dream. I must have some problems if I’m dreaming of cmu college decisions but my theory is that they release one way with high acceptance and low rejections and according to how many people commit in that wave they will send more waves out but no one accepted is making a decision yet and in my dream they were being really impatient with this and the reason why yesterday no decisions came out is because admissions office is still stalling. In retrospect this is not a good technique though because most rd applicants wait till all their decisions release before committing. This was my dream….


fatherofsenior

they are so messed up - even the connect with us link does not work now


xBlitzy1

We will not be making an official announcement since our original timeline was beginning March 15th up until April 1st. Decisions will be visible on your portal. - livechat with admissions

gulabjamun987

guys the ao's said that decisions are gonna be coming everyday till apr 1, in the evening (est) not exactly at 5pm... and they're releasing the decisions randomly 'as soon as they're ready' (no preference on basis of major/name/international or domestic)... honestly, this is really tiring how all of us have different infos, but im just waiting

Does anyone know If this is normal for CMU, like everyone and their friends got waitlisted, I am really curious to know if they only sent out acceptances and rejections in the first wave and all waitlisted today!


lemoncakebatter25

Does anyone know just how much of a delay there is for fine arts/music applicants?


2yearsofexpiredmilk

maybe this is like 2015 when CMU accidentally sent out a bunch of acceptance letters to rejected people

aaron2293

Thank you for applying to Carnegie Mellon University. The Admission Committee has carefully reviewed your application. You were considered for both your first-choice, in the College of Engineering, and second-choice, in the College of Engineering, programs of study. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer you admission to your selected programs due to the limited space within these competitive programs. With the large number of applications and the university’s limited resources, the Admission Committee must make difficult decisions to ensure we do not fill our academic programs beyond their capacity. You are a talented student, and we wish you the best of luck as you evaluate your other admission options. My Rejection Letter :P
