Hi everyone!! Thanks for watching! Pls watch to the end or fast forward to hear about this weeks giveaway… also…. In the description i added context for my interview story…. To be clear IT IS NOT BAD TO ASK PEOPLE FOR THEIR PRONOUNS OR ANYTHING but this was in 2017 before any of that was normal so our convo in that context was a bit wild…. ANYWAY!
This is actually a pretty unique -and partly reassuring- insight into their admissions philosophy. If you aren't in the recruited athlete pile, serious applicants that pass the first round can get in if that alumni interviewer thinks that you'd be good on campus. I guess this is just Harvard's interpretation of what "holistic" means to them.
I love how the beginning of the video is informative checklist and explanations about Harvard college admissions and after 12 minutes Changbin and Han appear on the screen (this is why I love your videos). Also ITZY is my favorite kpop group and they are also under JYP, have you seen some of ITZY's collaborations with SKZ? Hyunjin and Yeji's duo together to "Play with Fire" makes my jaw drop every time KDFJHKFHEF
Hi i am so sorry i never replied but i rly liked ur comment and actually u won the giveaway on my latest video (not the one from this week but from last week)!!!!!
@@CollegeChingu WHATTT NO WAY WHATT, thank you so much I really appreciate it, I need to catch up on your videos I've been so busy lately with school and swim practice ahhhh 😭
Would you consider making a video about transfer admission? I’m a community college student and I want to transfer into a top institution and a guide like this for transfers would be great!
Here's something you might find funny: the fact that I was tricked into reading my heart is a chainsaw bc it was supposed to be a good thriller book. The only good thing was the fact that it ended! And that the black girl didn't die. The fact that her skincare routine saved her jaw from quite literally dropping off? I need that skincare routine. NOW. love your vids, they've been very reassuring!!
I am crying omg this comment was such a trip! I just read the wikipedia summary of this book and it was so strange?!?!? How do people come up with this stuff?? I need that routine dropped ASAP as well LOL. Thank u sm for the comment it made me laugh and also I had some fun reading that whack summary on wikipedia, i really appreciate you ! :)
Hello my most loyal follower! I have personally never seen or heard of that happening. Typically, the alumni interviewer is really on your side. They volunteer to do this for the local alumni club usually because they want to help promote their school and also connect with applicants, giving the school their input about what the next class should look like. Interviews are often NEUTRAL. If an alumni interviewer does not really connect with you to a crazy extent, they will just write something that basically says “no change” as in “don’t change any scores based on this. A solid contender but nothing we cant not miss.” Something I imagine would merit a negative score would be being rude to the interviewer, cursing, being rude to the wait staff at wherever you end up meeting, being racist overtly, etc. Otherwise it can only really help you. Excellent question and THANK YOU!! Per usual for your kind words re my channel :)
Hi, I appreciate your reassuring words! Do you offer any discounts for your essay revisions? I don't think I'll be able to afford the price, but thanks for the video!
i am always willing to be flexible w prices for students w different financial needs ESPECIALLY when they are beomgyu fans!! love ur pro pic. pls email me and we can discuss a discounted review for you! collegechinguadmissions@gmail.com
hii! i heard the first colleges look at is your academic score, is that included sat/act? and if your academic score is around like 3 or 4 (included + or -) would they automatically reject you without even looking at your ecs or essays which might be up in the 2s?
If you heard of MITES, does having MITES and family responsibility of ~30 hours of work per week since elementary school enough to get 2+ for EC rating?
I’m really nervous about my academic score ( I got a B in duel enrollment calculus in junior year; that was my professors fault he sucked sm)! And only have a 32 act (trying to get it to a 34 before apps) I feel like I’m really going to have to lean into my personality score with my essays and loc (I’m picking duel enrollment teachers who I have REALLY good relationships with) do I still have a change😭😭😭
I've heard that standardized testing is part of the academic subscore. I 2 c's and a couple of b's my freshman year of high school. If testing is part of this subscore would getting a really high SAT score mitigate this?
What major? I want to do economics and I’m worried that, since it’s a very popular major at Harvard, I will need to be way more qualified than other applicants.
I have a question I want to ask you and it’s a multiple part question so I can I ask for your email ? I’m a college freshman planning on applying to Harvard and other schools for transfer
Up until late into my freshman year of High school, I was first gen. My dad got a degree that year online after loosing his job (2021) and my mom doesn’t have a degree. Is there a part of the application that I can share this, or does it not really matter since I’m not considered first gen anymore?
@@CollegeChinguA bachelors that year, and then a few months ago he got a masters again online. Before then, so for my entire childhood, he only had a highschool degree.😮
@@lauraward6443 hi Laura!! Yes you can either send me your essay on my website or set up a 1:1 session. My website has the prices for that as well but i offer discounted services if you want to book more than once! Link to my website is in video description sorry I cant copy and paste i am on my ipad lol
But like is that not so cute to u I think he’s sooooo cute like that! But then also really handsome and like cool at other points. Especially bc he is so buff now
No way you are BINGE WATCHING COLLEGE CHINGU VIDEOS???? I WILL ACTUALLY GIVE U A PRIZE LOL THAT IS SO FUNNY that being said im literally doing the same thing rn and agree it is such a lie LOL the lies we tell ourselves……

@@dukcy7450 thank you! And yes, basically. Every school will have their own version of holistic but harvards seems to be alumni value oriented

@@CollegeChingu I'm glad you had fun! always willing to talk about wacky books online!!
We need more of this good stuff. Also, can you explain the difference in 2- and 2+ on the rating scale ?
Did you apply Early Admission or regular? Thank you for your video, very insightful
Is it possible for an interview to bring DOWN your score? And if so, how? Thanks for the amazing video :)

@@CollegeChingu Thanks you're the best!
Thanks for such a super helpful content!!!
thank YOu for watching!!
Where would a 3.6 unweighted / 4.1 weighted gpa be on the academic scale. (at this point should i just give up?)
3/3- probably. A high sat maybe can bring you up to 3+ but remember it is holistic and academics aren't everything so don't give up.

No!!!! They’d still check everything over during the first round. And yes that is where test scores are most heavily weighted !
If you heard of MITES, does having MITES and family responsibility of ~30 hours of work per week since elementary school enough to get 2+ for EC rating?
BRO 😂 fancy seeing you here Mr. Yu
@@CCLethe nah, who ru?
@@glustrio._.4133 I wonder 😘
Have a great day Gordo

would a 1500 be a 3+ or 2- with 3.92 GPA and high rigor?
I've heard that standardized testing is part of the academic subscore. I 2 c's and a couple of b's my freshman year of high school. If testing is part of this subscore would getting a really high SAT score mitigate this?
it would help yes
Can you share common app essay tips or read your own?

hello, now it looks like for admission our academic achievements is our IQ while essays - EQ, does it mean the main goal in essay to show high EQ
that can be an approach. just show personal growth, ability to reflect, etc.
What major? I want to do economics and I’m worried that, since it’s a very popular major at Harvard, I will need to be way more qualified than other applicants.
major bag alert
I have a question I want to ask you and it’s a multiple part question so I can I ask for your email ? I’m a college freshman planning on applying to Harvard and other schools for transfer
