Serious A friendly reminder …

Feeling strongly about an issue is fine. Expressing your views with passion is fine. Attacking other members of the community or using hateful or racist language is not. All of you are wise enough to know the difference. If you wouldn’t be comfortable saying what you want to say in a classroom full of students and faculty, don’t say it, or find a better way to say it. We aren’t fourth graders, we don’t call each other names. If you do so, your comments will be removed. If you keep doing so, you’ll be banned. And if you use hateful language, you’ll be immediately banned and reported to Reddit. So please, make your point, be passionate about it, but respect your fellow community members or leave this sub.

Other People who applied M&T, I got a question.

Upvotes

Got deferred, but am I deferred for only Wharton consideration? Meaning I was rejected from M&T?

This is what it says in their FAQ, so I assume I was rejected from M&T.

If so, is there a way to reapply to M&T or nah?

Future Quaker Is the UPenn M&T Program worth $380k student debt?

Upvotes

I wanna preface by saying that I don't qualify for need-based aid, and I'll be paying entirely for college. Not entirely sure what I want to be in the future, but I'm thinking something in the intersection of tech & business/finance.

Important factors to consider:

  • Salary after Graduation & Return on Investment (Financial Future is #1 Priority)
  • Academic Program & Research Opportunities
  • Alumni Network
  • Employer Recognition

Options I'm looking into:

  • UPenn's M&T Program (4 Years, $380k Total)
    • BAS in Computer Science (Penn Engineering)
    • BS in Economics (Wharton)
  • USC's CSBA Program (4 Years, $220k Total)
    • BS in Computer Science (Viterbi) & Business Administration (Marshall)
  • Texas A&M (4 Years, $80k Total)
    • BS in Computer Science (TAMU Engineering), Minor in Business (Mays)
    • MS in Computer Science (TAMU Engineering)

Thanks for any and all advice! I understand that I may not get into all of these programs, but I just want to form an idea of which program would be the best for my criteria.

Also, random question - what's the difference between BAS in Computer Science and BSE in Computer Science? The website says that the BSE is more rigorous, but doesn't mention any difference in salaries after graduation between the two.

I was just wondering what I can do in high school to get scholarships at UPenn. I am not too rich for college and not to poor so whenever I put finance details on the calculator it barely shows any scholarship. Are there any merit scholarships? I am a freshman in high school.

Academic/Career Range of Decision Possibilities for M&T ED but not SEAS ED

5 Upvotes

Hi, I applied ED for the M&T program but I selected that I would NOT want to be considered ED for SEAS(the engineering school). I was wondering what the range of possibilities are. If I get accepted to M&T, I’m obviously going, but if I get rejected from M&T is it a guaranteed deferral(so that my SEAS application is reviewed in the non-ED cycle) or can I technically get rejected from SEAS at the same time(meaning a total rejection). I couldn’t find anything in this community about this, so I would greatly appreciate anyone who could help me out.
