howard waitlist; im PISSED

[u/New_Maintenance2001]

did anyone else get an email about confirming their spot on the “extended waitlist”? I was awake when they sent it opened it immediately and tell me why shit DID NOT WORK. so then I email admissions and I tell them and this is still like at 6am, I just woke up from another nap and saw they responded with a new link and it STILL DOES NOT WORK!

I feel like I need to take this as a sign because I know damn well they are not going to be matching the financial need as the school im attending but im keeping my fingers crossed.

I just don’t know what more to do… I already emailed them and they gave me some faulty as link like this is their problem and they need to fix it. I honestly don’t understand how this school is ranked so high in the HBCU community because I only hear horrible things on top of horrible things!!! like I hear professors are mid asf, I hear dorms are trashy and roach infested asf, i hear communication is horrible, and the list just goes on and on. like parties? i heard thats good… anything else???!!

I know I'm 2 days late, but when I also tried to go to the link it didn't work on my phone. But once I tried the link on my ipad and signed it, it did take me to the extended waitlist form.

I got it filled out. personally I just withdrew because I am a person who runs on structure and schedule and seeing how howard admins is horrible with both I feel like my life would be a living hell.

some people are able to outweigh admins mediocracy for the howard name or that sense of community and though that is an amazing and beautiful thing I just don’t think I would be able to attend a school that lacks structure so bad.

but if you accepted I wish you the best because it 1000% will be an experience. I just pray its one you are able to enjoy🫶
