It's so weird I got waitlisted at Dartmouth. I mean obviously, my essay was good enough to not be immediately rejected but still haha. But I DID get into Stanford so I'm so glad my essays worked out.

hahaha congrats! there're so many factors beyond essays out of an applicant's control -- so glad Stanford worked out!

Hi Iris thanks a lot for this video. Aside from things we can prepare on our application, do you think contacting adcom or program officer or professor after you have submitted applications, saying that we are very interested in joining the program, would help in admission process? Can they make good recommendation to our candidacy?

@rubhoob3431 3 года назад

@irisfu6929 3 года назад

not really! watch the cold calling/emailing vid for more on landing them :)

@rubhoob3431 3 года назад

Hi Iris, Can you make an international student focused video?( like how to get scolarships, and some international competitions we can win, badsically international student resources and tips)

@irisfu6929 3 года назад

Noted! Planning on a livestream or workshop of some sort just for internationals

@chloefandetti6296 3 года назад

Hi iris! I’m wondering if you have any advice on how to tackle supplemental essays on the same topic (community, ECs, etc) but with different word counts (175 vs 400)?

Hmm what i did was I just added more analysis lol (kept the story the same, but elaborated more on how it connected to my learnings/values)

Hey Iris I have a quick question. In terms of the common app did you end up linking your video pal program and talking about it, or did you just describe it?

@irisfu6929 3 года назад

I just described it but put the link in add info

@meghanad.2929 3 года назад

thx. I have a digital portfolio of all my independent research and mentorship experiences from two years and I didn't know where to put it or whether or not to include the link.😂

I know this is not related, but which college ranking is the most reliable?? 1) U.S. News and World Reports 2) QS World University Ranking 3) Times higher Education Please reply I just want to know because they differ a lottt.

@irisfu6929 3 года назад

Honestly, I'm not quite sure. I don't think any of them are that reliable bc if you look at how they measure the rankings there're many factors that I (personally) don't care about. Therefore, I'd take all rankings with a grain of salt

Hey! I have been volunteering for over 4 years and I have more than 4000 hours of community services. Will this have the same weightage as 200+ hours of community service??

@tekashisun585 3 года назад

Imo its more about what you get out of 4000 hours of volunteering.. If you do it for college application then no

I’m just asking this to anybody here in general, but if I’ve published a book, is it alright that it’s just an e-book that people can read online? Would that still count as publishing a book in my college app?

@taonanamalima4799 3 года назад

Yesss

@irisfu6929 3 года назад

Yes, but you should probably specify "self-published ebook"

@vivianli2058 3 года назад

i also want to know can u chose between sat subject tests and sat ? like which one do top 10 colleges prefer ?

@irisfu6929 3 года назад

hey vivian, sat subject tests are almost always otional while the sat is required at most schools (at least before corona)

@vivianli2058 3 года назад

Iris Fu oh ok. did u take the sat subject test or just the sat in general ? I’m prepping still with sat but i’m not sure if it’s going to be cancelled due to covid and i don’t want to prep for nothing

@vivianli2058 3 года назад

Iris Fu and i’m afraid that i’m taking the wrong sat since a lot of people said sat subjects are required too please let me know thank u

@vivianli2058 3 года назад

Iris Fu i’ve changed to ACT which is better suited for me

@vivianli2058 3 года назад

Hi! i wanted to know do u have any recommendations for online animal volunteering and how many volunteer work should u do for college. last but not least do i need to do both volunteer and extracurricular activities or which one is more important.

@irisfu6929 3 года назад

I don't think there's really a threshold of how many you should do. Remember, just be authentic and pursue what interests you to the best of your abilities. Like what we talked about, don't do something just for college

@vivianli2058 3 года назад

Iris Fu yes correct thank u ! so like community service and extracurricular activities aren’t that important for colleges correct ?

@vivianli2058 3 года назад

@arcee7425 3 года назад

Hey, Abhijeet I am from India as well, but unlike you, I am junior(11th). I have been searching and reading about the US college admissions process since the last 2 years, and the only thing I want to say to you is don't ever refrain from Applying, the process in The USA is very HOLISTIC, so they will also see your high school grades, your awards( Sports medals as you mentioned), SAT scores, Intelectual vitality, how much of a rigorous coursework have you taken, your letter of recommendations etc. DO GIVE THE SEPTEMBER SAT, if you have not given the exam till date, becoz you don't have many extracurriculars, this might help in judging your application I emailed the admissions officer at Stanford and she told me that having an athletic background is always good and provides you with an advantage so overall, give the SAT and 1 or two subject tests(if possible) and apply, even if you don't get in apply as a transfer applicant JUST APPLY
