They almost killed someone at the Mockingbird/Central Crossing. It was crazy. Didn’t even slow down once they were on the ground. They should be reported

Hey everyone,
Applying to SMU Cox MSF as an international student from Greece (21M). Looking for an honest profile evaluation and scholarship feedback.
• Undergrad: BS in Entrepreneurship Management (American College of Greece)
• GPA: 3.40 / 4.00
• Timeline: Completed the 4-year degree early in 3.5 years
• GRE: 320
• Experience: 6 months at a Greek business
Based on this profile, what are my realistic chances for admission and a good merit scholarship?
Could i drop the overall cost at 50k?

My family has enough money to pay for it( no problem for the f-1 which requires financial documents) but honestly i feel like paying full price is too much.

Ideal for a chemistry, math, or physics student. Coupled cluster (CC) theory gives electronic or nucleonic correlation information inside an atom. I want to calculate quantum information science metrics via the density matrix. I have the roadmap, we probably could finish it this semester. I’ve published with students in the past.

Benefits: paper will be posted on arXiv and submitted for publication; learn coupled cluster theory; Starbucks from time to time; bring a friend.

Requirements: calculus; not afraid of vectors and matrices; will use Python but ChatGPT can help us code; meet on campus 1-2 weekly.

Please tell me your major, year, number of hours you’re taking this semester. Thanks for reading.

The Circle Performance — Performance With Purpose.

I think I am leaning towards SMU as my top school.
I applied Early Action in mid-August, but at the time, I wasn’t sure my family could afford it, and it wasn’t my first choice yet.

But now, my parents have become more supportive of me attending if I’m admitted to Cox, and I honestly wish I had applied Early Decision instead to better my chances. I have also got into NHS and became president of a club after I applied.

Is there any way to switch from Early Action to Early Decision after already submitting my application and would it be worth it if I ended up doing that?

I’m also looking for advice on admissions and anything else I can do to help my chances of getting into Cox.

I’ve emailed my admissions counselor a few times, but she hasn’t responded, and our scheduled Zoom call was canceled. Does anyone have advice on how to get in touch with her or know someone else at SMU who might be able to help?

Ik I won’t hear till December but is where I can genuinely see myself going, and I’m trying to do everything I can at this point. Thanks!

I posted awhile ago, but in case you were wondering
I have 3.75 Weighted and will go in with 24 credit hours assuming all of my dual enrollment transfers.

I have a 24 on the ACT but applied test optional
but have good extra curriculars and volunteer.

Ik my stats are on the lower side for cox but I would appreciate any advice.

I have twin boys and we have toured SMU & Baylor, and will be touring Vanderbilt and a few others. One twin is going into the ministry and so is probably going to Baylor. The other is undecided but is potentially interested in BioChem. Expresses an interest in research. It bc he’s unsure has also expressed an interest in law (I’m an attorney) But as a parent I can see he’s completely undecided… he’s really analytical, super responsible, really athletic but quiet in large groups. He likes that SMU & Baylor have Christian fraternities & lives that SMU claims to have LOTS of study abroad, study Taos, etc.. & that’s it’s all paid for by the school. He’s really conservative & strong in his faith. Can anyone speak to whether he will find a place at SMU, whether the Christian fraternities accept all or how likely it is to get in (he’s hilarious & fun but is quiet until he’s comfy) .. whether the study abroad etc opportunities are as prolific as they claim and fully funded by the school (hard sell from the school) .. if he’s undecided … will they be as understanding of that as Baylor seems to be? Whether the research opportunities are as prolific as they claim (that was a hard sell from the school) .. whew! I know that’s a lot but we’ve just left & any opinions are welcome.

My brother is planning on applying to SMU early decision, but wanted to see if he actually has a shot.

2.9 UW GPA / 3.6 W GPA

Not submitting SAT because sub 1100 score

Sailed since a young age, while on attending many competitive regattas, and on the high school team

Has had a couple jobs - restaurant busboy and sailing coach helper

Lots of honors classes, but no AP (only AP Psych senior year and grades are not posted yet)

Applying from South Carolina (not sure if out of state is helpful or hurtful)

I saw that the acceptance rate for ED is much higher than regular decision so wanted to see if he actually has a chance given this.

Thank you

I just went to mustang day and absolutely loved it. Great day love the school and all the people who made it happen. I have around a 3.4 gpa pretty low I know but have very strong extra curricular activities like internships, sneaker small business with over 10k revenue, president of coding club, other small leadership like sports captains, lots of service especially teaching related service. So my question since I have multiple business focused ec is it going to help a lot to go Ed for cox. I know that if I do not get into cox then it’s not binding so it feels worth it. I feel like if I get into cox regardless that’s where I will go. Any thoughts will be excellent I also have a good relationship with the admissions officer and have performed lots of demonstrated interest.

I wanna major in journalism for undergrad, possibly also pre-law.

GPA- 3.9

I'm applying test-optional bc my SAT isn't high enough to apply with, and most of my classes have been dual-enrollment (17 dual enrollment classes) since I'm homeschooled.

Activites- political journalism lead on a blog, teen court juror, law firm marketing intern, class admin for international religious classes, muslim student associaton event coord, marketing intern for org that teaches english to refugees, student volunteer for special needs adult events, democrashe (civic engagement org) summer intensive fellow, also got social media internship with them as well. I'm also a lifeguard

what are my chances?

I want to do finance major for undergrad

visiting for a game - what are the sections in the stadium we should try to sit in or avoid. anyone know which sections will be shaded?

Huh, so apparently it's possible to make a lap around Bishop Boulevard in about 30 seconds while only causing some minor vehicular mayhem. Good thing campus police didn't catch me...

This is a follow up to my post where I turned SMU into a video game level, but now with a circuit racing minigame around the boulevard! Added an option to turn the traffic way up because why not. Cars have collision now and the DART buses are unstoppable tanks for added difficulty.

Built in three.js and have a demo here if you want to try it out: All Roads

Looking for a rundown of the business frats at SMU. Pros/cons?

Hey all! Two of us are over from Scotland for work in Dallas and staying for the weekend, and we've got tickets for Saturday's game. Neither of us has been to a college game before but we are avid watchers of american football, so any general advice for first-timers would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance, looking forward to it!

Hey guys!

Got a group of friends from Boston College meeting up in Dallas for this weekend’s BC at SMU game, and we were seeking any recommendations for good bars to check out prior to the game or any tailgating recommendations.

Thank you in advance, and we’re pumped to check out SMU!
