COLLEGE DECISION REACTIONS 2022 (8 ivies, MIT, UCs, Stanford, NYU…)*International Student
Музыка
I applied to 29 schools total (19 common app, MIT, Georgetown, 3 UC, 5 UK)
Finally, the stressful college application season ended!!! (Let me know if you want my stats)
I am an International Student from Taiwan.
This video documents my college application journey. I look rough because the timzone is in the morning, at 8am. I may appear pessimistic in the video, but it’s because I’m tooooooo nervous. (Featuring an exclusive reaction video from my friend)
🔚All my college decision results are posted at the end of the video
💗Enjoy!!! Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and comment below which college you think I should attend.

Its because so many of the COVID gap year students applied this year with you guys so they blew over
Columbia was my dream school either, I got rejected too! You did great and got amazing results. Congrats💗
Congratulations on all your admissions! As, also an international student applying to colleges this year, I felt your nervousness through the screen hahah. Anyways, best of luck to you!
Congrats on berkeley!! You’ll love the bay
Hi Serena. Congratulations on all of your acceptances. Can you make more videos to share about your school or your studying like how you study, how you manage your time, ... Btw, i admire you so much. Cornell is really an amazing university🥰

Hi Serena, I noticed you didn't block out your personal info from your video. If you ever come to the USA to study and to live, you have to be more careful about personal safety issues. This includes exposing personal info online. BTW, I've been to Yilan, Taiwan. It's a beautiful rustic city. I visited the bee/honey farm and Kavalan distillery there. Good luck with your college journey!

Hi Serena, Ive noticed that u replied to other comments saying that u went to a school in Shenzhen, and I've also noticed your basis uniform lol. Its such coincidence for me to see this video. Im also taiwanese and I go to SIS which is just right next to basis, but I'm just a freshmen this year. Congrats for your acceptances!! I really wish to go to Cornell one day.... Could you also please make a stats video which would be very helpful for us international students especially the ones in Shenzhen.

you are SO SO wrong about choosing a college based on other people's opinion.... I know Taiwan like a lot of asian countries is very toxic when it comes to education, but please...in the US or in Europe (where im from), it does not work that way.....And thinking about other people when you are struggling in college is not the best solution, go get some professional help instead...I am speaking from experience, so please stop spreading toxic views about college.

Hey Serena congratulations 🎊. I have a question, when applying did you pay the application fee for each application?
@SerenaChiang

Heyyy, yes I applied mainly through common app and the application fee on average is around $80 per school (UCs have a similar fee)
please do a stats and ecs!!! congrats on cornell
Sorry about Columbia....but NYU is also fantastic! NYU is in much more fun part of town. You're smart, beautiful and have upbeat personality so you will go far in life
Just wanted to ask that you applied all by yourself or went to some consulting agency ?

Hey, you have such a nice personality, but it is a bummer that those decisions aren't genuine. If you already opened the decisions before, why make a colle decision reactions video? Not hating cause the video is so good, but just would have liked to see the first time opening them.

lol, all the video recording of my reaction was my first time opening them; the screen recording of the decision letter is edited later on (thus some letters were already opened)
