I don't see how this College->Bachelor->Masters is superior in anyway except spending more money. My high school grades are not good enough to get into University because I focused more on eSports during those years than schooling. So I have to go to College first, and due to personal reasons I am finishing the full 3 years and earning the diploma, then I should be able to take advantage of an articulation agreement, and cut my Bachelors down to 2 years instead of 4. Then I have to work 2 years, then apply for Masters via relevant work experience and recommendations. | ||

CS I don't plan on getting on any waitlists. I can't risk not going to the schools I'm already in hoping to get into waitlists. | ||

Yeah CS is pretty difficult to get in, unless if you're a girl... Did you get into any other universities that you wanted to get in? I think generally you pay a deposit or something saying you want to go there, but don't have to commit beyond that, until you actually go. I could be horribly wrong though >_>;; | ||

From what I hear, they pretty much don't take any off their waitlists, so I'm not banking on CMU anymore at all. I guess I'm appealing Berkeley... I have no idea where I'm going anymore. | ||

I'm saying like if you're not off a waitlist by the time you have to make a decision, you can say i wanna go here, but if you happen to get off the waitlist later you can go to the school you were waitlisted from with like losing a small deposit. Yet again, I'm not sure if this is completely true. I'm not going to say anything about probability of getting off the waitlist, because I honestly don't know. I did get waitlisted from CS, but I was probably really low in terms of getting off, cause I was already in CIT(So CS wasn't even first priority) | ||
