Hey @lazerdunk, @TomorrowsParties, @planningapp22 congrats on UIC! I was accepted w/ an assistantship (10 hrs per wk of work plus tuition/fee remission) - will prob be turning it down (i love chicago but i'm accepting an awesome opportunity at MIT) so hopefully it goes back into their pool for one of y'all

@woketacoI think that's just the official "yes, I'm coming" form that you have to fill out (+ any financial docs or official transcripts they require) - shouldn't be much additional work!

Just got an admission email from UCLA! No funding info (which either means they didn't offer any or it's still pending...?) I'll likely be at MIT in either case-- sending good vibes to all those waiting!!!

Thanks!! Yep, I’m from the US!

Just got a call that I'm into MIT!!!! (from prof from the concentration I listed on my app - CDD)

Just got the admissions decision email from Rutgers! Looks like we'll have to wait a couple of weeks for financial support decisions though.

Waitlist at Harvard for me!

For those who applied to UMich - I took a cue from last year's forum and decided to check Wolverine Access to see if my decision was ready, and lo-and-behold, it was! - the site says "an official admissions letter is being processed and will be emailed shortly"

@Quincy_Taft_Coolidge Re: USC, I just got a "Congratulations..." email explaining I had been admitted + the scholarship they're offering.

@lumptoastI got the same offer from USC - 25% tuition scholarship (which eliminates it from a financial perspective for me, too). I know that you can successfully negotiate your finaid package at some places, but I'm interested to hear if anyone has insight about USC specifically.

Same here! heard back from MN in the affirmative, and waiting to see about funding

Hey there! I'm considering MIT DUSP for Fall 2022, but unfortunately we won't be able to hear from any of last year's applicants because MIT didn't accept any new MCP students last year (due to COVID funding restraints).
