thank you!!!

Rene Argueta acceptance rate is only a partial indicator of college prestige but it’s the only one people car about. Still though difficult to get into both

@@GreekOrthodox7 but yale and princeton too

It was recently found out that they got a ton of kids to apply without really giving a crap if they got in to lower the rate. It’s messed up

iit acceptance rate 0.1% 50 times harder

How were you admitted so early?

Tyrant Jesus The programs I applied at Columbia ad UPenn review applications on a rolling basis and I submitted applications in early September so that’s why I got offers from these two schools this early. Stanford and Yale review applications simultaneously so that’s why I’m only going to get answers from them in March.

Care to share your stats? Congrats by the way!

Stephanie Zheng THX！GPA 3.92，GMAT 720，Undergrad School NYU Stern School of Business， 3 strong recommendations

Mark Lu Thanks! I didn’t see the graduate school part. It’s amazing that you got into Wharton!

Ahh okay! Thank you so much!

I'm so glad I could help!! Good luck with the process :)

Congrats on getting in! You'll do awesome wherever you end up

Congrats! Do you have any tips/advice/recommendations on how to do well enough in highschool in order to be considered by Stanford? ( It's my dream school)

Omg congratulations !!! 🌲🌲 That’s amazing. I hope you come to Stanford, you won’t regret it! Or try to come to admit weekend and see how you feel on campus :)

nazjaa thank you so much! I’m definitely attending admit weekend. I’m super excited to see the school in person!

Haha, I got rejected early... Goodbye dream school

I bet you'll do super awesome things wherever you end up!

Allie L. Sorry to hear! I was also recently rejected from my dream school (Oxford), but that’s ok! I bet you and I will end up at a place that we’ll both be happy with!

@@matchasketch8224 yes!! thank you! good luck wherever you go :)

That’s a good attitude to have! Stanford would have been lucky to have you, but i know you’ll find somewhere better to thrive 🥰 best of luck to you with the rest of applications! thanks so much for supporting my channel ❤️

this definitely helped :) thank you!! The ECD makes more sense haha

I'm glad to have helped!

Lol thank you!!

Off* the bat...

what do smart people look like lol

There’s no such thing as smart lol. It all depends on effort

@@mimi-pb4hn Nothing like Manuel, apparently

thank you so much! same to you

I like them both but they have 2 completely different personalities, I feel like it would be awkward

d e I feel like she would have a more good video with jose luis, jas in jollege, or kath path or any of the other cardinals that have fairly academic channels.

Or Tatiana Ali

Thank you sooo much ❤️ that means a lot fr

thank you so much ❤️ that’s the goal!

basketballman3509 same boy

That’s ok! That’s how I felt as well. just try to market your passions as best as possible and remain genuine about your interests and purpose about wanting to go to Stanford. Plus, it’s never too late to get involved!

nazjaa thank you so much!!! ❤️

basketballman3509 hello! Community service is an easy way to separate yourself from most other applicants.

neelonghunglow okay will do thank you!

ahh good luck 🥰 i’m here to help!

yess you definitely should 😚😚

AHH Congrats!!! #Stanford2024!!

Aw thank you so much 🥰🥰 good luck with your application!!

Thank you so much!! I will keep all of that in mind :)

@Srihitha Kurapati TY🙏🏿

thanks so much!

I am so glad I could help!! Thank you for watching, best of luck with the application!!

Did u get in🤞🏾

thank you so much! Congratulations that’s amazing !!! ❤️❤️🌲🌲

thank you 😊😊

@@nazjaa You're welcome

Ahh congratulations!! I hope everything works out in your favor 🌲😊 and yes it’s so interesting, please do!

Precisely!

Does QB match you with a full ride to a college? Sorry, just confused on what it is😊

Yay omg!!!! Congratulations on being matched ☺️🌲🌲 just keep in mind everyone’s experience is different but definitely don’t listen to people who do not attend stanford 😂 it’s exactly what you make of it ! i’ll keep putting out more content to help ‘24 see more sides of our university :)

Yes! QB is a program for low income students and the match program provides a full ride to one of their partner schools :) There’s a video on my channel if you’re interested in learning more!

Congrats Questie

When you match through QB does your regional AO still look at your application or does stanford have a select QB committee ?

Of course, thanks for watching!!

thank you so much 😊

Thanks so much! and Congratulations

Yayyy congrats!!! I bet you’re excited :)) but yes definitely request as soon as you move to campus in september !! 🌲🌲🌲

Hey I also applied through questbridge RD and I haven't gotten any info about an interview when do they let you know if you have one?

I failed US💀

of course 💖💖

of course ❤️❤️

she has her essays in the description. She was a QB Finalist, but did not match to Stanford, she got into Stanford RD (which is awesome). The channels "8th Period" and "Alex Alvarado" are run by people who matched to Stanford, they also share their essays there.

@@ninaleach9150 Thank you so so much, I really appreciate you helping me out :))

thank you sm ❤️

did you get in

@@jill109 no, got into usc though

thank youuu ily too 🥰🥰

nazjaa ahh geeking out, one question tho: would u mind reading my stanford essays, i didn’t get in through the match but i would appreciate your input

I hope so too :) let us know how it goes!!

Did you get in?

thank you!! i would love to make a video on getting deferred, I’m not too clear on the process either but i’ll do my research :) In the meantime, check out this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z9ekotOBr82siH0.html

@@nazjaa alright thank you!

Ahh I was deferred too :/ Good luck to both of us!

@@rhiannon2316 Good luck to us! Hopefully we make it to admit day

Lol! I’m glad! and I’d love to make a video on that, thank you! coming soon

ooou yeah that makes sense!! thank you!

Congratulationssss!! That’s amazing! 🌲 We’re looking forward to welcoming ‘24 to campus :) And some of the experiences I heard were that their readers were just very critical of their essays and how they presented themselves in the application. I also heard of some people who did not have good interview experiences and saw what their interviewer said about them. In the long run, it shouldn’t be too bad because we were admitted in the first place :)

Would love to! Thanks for the suggestion, it’s coming soon

thank you so much

Yale REA here😢 we'll see how this goes hehe

@@irenee77890 At least Yale is need blind for international students, unlike Stanford😬

@@irenee77890 Did you ask for aid? Applying from?

Yeah about 2 weeks to go😢

@@irenee77890 I'm scared as fuck. Expecting a rejection because its freaking Stanford. Good luck for Yale! If you get in, please update in the comments.

Of course !! :)

You should still apply, you never know!! Don’t doubt yourself :)

Antonella Caceres Hispanic people have a higher chance of getting in due to need of diversity, try applying ! You never know if you will get in or not

Ya Ya really? 🤧 omg, I will try to apply! I hope I get accepted! Wish me luck haha 💖

omgg yo también soy de perú, y solo sé de solo un par de personas que han sido aceptadas pero nada perdemos intentándolo

I felt this my grade are 70s and 80s 😂🤷🏽‍♀️

of course! here’s the link: docs.google.com/document/d/1Y8z-JJGSmVrtbQeqnUdQ-UceU_WY6XvLPxvwskDv_ho

also keep in mind it’s really hard to tell what STANFORD wants, so instead of trying to sculpt your essays around what they want, try to just answer the question honestly!

nazjaa Thank you so much!

statt applying u don't need the sat flr next ywar

I’m 10 and I’ve always been really smart as others said. I’m going into grade 5 and this is my dream school. If I don’t get in that’s okay, but if I do, I will be really happy but I’d have to leave my mom and dad here in Illinois.

Gabby Shawn oh same! But I’m going to fourth, if I don’t get into my dream school I’ll probably start crying so hard cause it was my dream school for so long

Hi!! Do you mind sharing your stats, like your SAT and extra curriculars?. Just curious :D

Best to ask a particular institution whether they use a cut-off and what it is. Then you can maybe save yourself the cost and time of an application. But the answer will probably be "no" for any of the highly-selective colleges. Public state colleges, OTOH, may have either cut-offs which keep you out, or "cut-ins" ; ) guaranteeing admission to in-state applicants with grades/test scores above certain thresholds. The bigger and more useful question, though HS applicants never seem to think about it, is "Do I want to go to the highest-rated school I can get in to, maybe struggling and not doing well, or a school better matched to my level of academic ability where I can thrive and be successful." Students always assume that being admitted to the most competitive school they applied to is a good thing, but then four years later after they end up going there that may or may not turn out to have been the case. Back when I was shuffling through (engineering) job applications looking for people to hire, poor grades from a premier college were less appealing than good grades from an average one. [Remember that when you don't get in to your "reach" college... it was all for the best! : ) ] There is a solid alternative for anyone who maybe hasn't been exceptional in high school for whatever reasons but is excited about learning and wants to get as much out of their higher education as possible: Community college for the first two years. Not everyone matures academically at the same rate. If your first two years of HS sucked but things were starting to fall into place junior or senior year -- too late to save your GPA -- give strong consideration to a CC as a way of repairing that situation and moving forward. The academics is often perfectly good at those. I did two years of Calculus at a CC while in HS, and then went straight into upper-level math classes as a freshman at the Ivy where I got an engineering degree. The main thing is if you're going to do a CC, go at it as if you were at a college as demanding as you dream about getting in to. Work yourself harder than what the profs require. Mostly "A"s are a forgone conclusion, because compared to others in your classes you are working so damn hard. Extra hours a day on top-quality papers (i.e. getting it written is just the start -- now comes the rewrites until it's as close to perfect as you can get it); additional problems from the math/science texts. Set a floor of at least four hours every weekday after classes for school work, both class assignments and self-assignments such as reading great works of literature, learning Statistics, ??. Then when your great grades get you in to a great four-year, you've already equipped yourself with the self-discipline and academic skills you will need to thrive in a high-pressure environment.

@@marcmcreynolds2827 oh. shit. That's huge

I would like to know as well! I think I know of a few other schools that allow you to see your files.

I wanted to see my admissions files but the lady I spoke to in undergrad admissions said they wiped out all comments. Essentially if I ask for admissions files all I’ll get is the same application information I submitted. So nothing new. This is UPenn

hmm maybe you’re right! i have 0 clue still haha

nazjaa Btw, I got deferred EA from Stanford, haha. Any advice??

If it’s meant to be, it will be. If they don’t think you’ll fit, they won’t accept you. Colleges have a good idea of who will succeed and fit into their culture

It can, but it can also have a very small role in the admissions process. Either way, good luck with Penn!

@@nazjaa Thanks. I was rejected though :( I'm fine I am fine with the other twenty schools I am applying too lol

ik this is from 2 years ago but i never related more

I’m not sure, I don’t think I submitted the common app for stanford! Sorry i can’t remember 😩 Either way, my Common App and QB essay were the same. The only extra things I submitted to Stanford were the supplements

Adara Toran just checked, your family has to earn below 65k/year. it’s hard for middle class kids. too wealthy to qualify for financial aid but too poor to pay ridiculous prices.

It’s not a strict cut off ^ they also factor in the number of people in your family and other circumstances.

Doesn’t sound possible for me...oh well guess I’ll have to do the hard way

nazjaa yeah!!! definitely still check it out! there are other options

Amish Caillou it’s free if you’re low income... that’s why.

Ashleigh E exactly...ivys have the best aid for low income kids.

thank you!!

yess that’s what i assumed as well, ty!

Yes!
