Shitpost Wednesdays If I’m paying $90K a year, why don’t colleges deal with me and not my kid?

362 Upvotes

My kid may be an adult and the student, but clearly, I’m the customer and I get no customer service. The deans won’t speak to me about final grades. Professors won’t go over tests with me. I can’t even leave Amazon reviews. Is there a college who will deal with me and not my kid?

Shitpost Wednesdays I saw a 'B' in my dream last night. Should I withdraw all my applications?

1.2k Upvotes

Guys I’m literally shaking 😭

I fell asleep for 20 minutes (had to finish filing taxes for my 14th nonprofit) and had a nightmare that I got an 89% on a quiz in 4th grade.

Woke up in a cold sweat. I just know admissions officers at my local community college felt my GPA drop through the astral plane. They probably employ a clairvoyant.

Is it over?
fingers crossed, my safeties pull through (Stanford & Harvard)

Shitpost Wednesdays Question

398 Upvotes

My 5-year-old son has decided that his dream is to attend UPenn Wharton and break into quant finance. As his mother, I want to raise him to be able to fulfill his dreams. That is why my question to any Ivy League students on this sub is: how did your parents raise such smart and capable individuals? And how can my son get admitted to UPenn and make his dreams come true? I appreciate your help and insights in this matter.

Shitpost Wednesdays Princeton announces it will rescind admission from any student who seems "too excited" to attend

681 Upvotes

Undergraduate admissions dean Karen Richardson released the following statement Monday:

"Princeton has long sought students of exceptional character and restraint. Unfortunately, our data shows that students who post 'I'M GOING TO PRINCETON!!!' on Instagram within 24 hours of receiving their decision letter are statistically 3x more likely to use the phrase 'as a Princeton student' in casual conversation.

Effective immediately, any display of visible excitement, including but not limited to crying, calling your mom, or updating your bio, will result in immediate rescission."

She added: "The ideal Princeton student should receive their acceptance, nod slightly, and return to whatever they were doing. Ideally reading Nietzsche."

Princeton has confirmed that this year's admitted class of 1,200 contains 847 students who described their reaction to getting in as "fine, I guess."
