College Move In
My highschool journey recently came to a close, and now it's time for my college journey to begin.
What feels odd, however, is that while I'm excited - I don't feel as different as I expected it to feel.
This is going to be quite an interesting journey I suppose.

Переглядів 27 тис.Рік тому
An Indian, international, kid, applies to US (& 3 HK) colleges for Computer Science. Not a nice combination. Let's see the college decision reactions and find out where I get in eh?

WORKING ON A NEW VIDEO RN!
Hey!! Did you get any form of financial aid from the uni or are your parents funding your education?? Please reply.
So vijit, hows life at davis now?
A rollercoaster, but a good and fun one :)
@@vijitdua ay I hope you have a good time mate
@@MrMorgan2008 thanks! Hope you have a fantastic day and an awesome journey yourself wherever you are :)
Do American schools hate Indian students? Every video I've seen has mostly rejections.
International acceptance rates. Citizens get higher priority than internationals for admissions. I can't say its unfair, but it definitely makes it harder.
seeing this in the middle of the night knowing very well my visa is about to come in a month and ill have to leave this sep
Goodluck!
Which uni?
bro atleast u got pretty supportive friends
Thanks, and yeah I do haha
Found your channel, Vijit! A 5 on the AP Physics C exam is WILD. Collab when???
I love how I got a 5 in the exam I didn't study for at all and a 3 in the exam which I pulled an allnighter for. Collab is when you let me drop by Berkeley and crash over at your place :p
@@vijitdua I'm free for all of next month. Let me know when :)
You’re awesome dude. As a Texan, sorry for taking one of those spots of UT Austin away from you.
Haha thanks for the flattery man, and nah you deserve your spot at UTA 🙌
brother can you tell me what s in your cv
It’s in the description of the video :)
This has to be the best reaction video I have ever seen. CONGRATS
Thanks man, appreciate it! Glad to know you enjoyed watching.
I've never seen an application to a Hong Kong uni before, that would awesome to see. HK is my fav city.
Haha yeah HK is pretty cool, I've been there twice before. And I am also planning to do an exchange program with them next year for a semester :)
i went through your linkedin, and i wanted bring to your attention why you got rejected from almost every school. there's just one reason. "silverzone" is a scam olympiad organization, ik what you were trying to do but obv it didn't work, and that was like half of your awards so...
cute
Hey! Do you think people preparing for IIT should consider applying abroad as a backup plan? If yes, then can you give me some tips on how to get started?
It's feasible but personally I would not recommend. IITs are enterance exam focused, while most of these institutions are holistic. If you’re open to safety schools abroad, it’s worth exploring. But if you are chasing the top schools in both areas, it might end up distracting you from creating a good profile for either. Check their admission criteria online on the webpages of each university. Goodluck!
AMazing video cinematograhy. What a GOAT VIJIT
Nah Raquib, ur the goat
dude make a stats video
Stats are in the description!
honestly his stats are amazing i think he only got rejected because he score a 73.6% in 11th
mainly because he's international; he def would've done well if he was a us citizen or resident
@@terrible2d im sure its harder for intl students but a 73.6% is unacceptable to any ivy/t20 school and even most state schools
@@anushkaverma2203 i know people who had multiple c's get into ivy's and t20s... it's possible, you just have to stand out in other ways
Though that sounds plausible, do consider the fact that my rank was also submitted to every college (i.e. 2nd/51 in 11th grade.) plus some universities like the UC System only asked for my positional grade not percentages (positionally I was A1) It is definitely one of the reasons but probably not the only reason.
Also, its common in India for grade deflation to occur in 11th grade to prepare us for the national level board exams in grade 12. Most universities are aware of this. Fun fact- UC Davis didn’t even ask for my official 9th and 11th grade reports (And in their system I had all A1s for 11th grade due to me submitting the positional grades instead of percentages)💀
Congratulations bro !!! btw how old are you?
Thanks! I’m 18 rn, but I was 17 during this video
What an amazing video. I am at the end of my high school journey as well, and now life awaits me. I watched the whole thing because I can imagine myself in your situation. Takes a lot of responsibility to move across the world on your own, best of luck!
Thanks Austin, glad to know you enjoyed watching it and genuinely hope your journey goes great as well 🫡
Hey Vijit when's the next video dropping!!!
Can't give an exact date, I already have a video concept but execution could easily even be half a year.
@@vijitdua dont be playboi carti bro just drop the next vlog
@@_z.e.r.o.z_ lmao the next video isn’t a vlog but a bit philosophical (yet still cinematicish). But I got irl shit and other goals that are taking up time sadly lol
Did you watch "now you see me 2"?
Not yet. But- coindicentally I just made a plan, a few days ago, to rewatch part one with a friend on thursday and watch part 2 soon afterwards. So soon enough :)
hi pooks
I’m not your pooks AND FINISH UR PART OF THE GROUP ASSIGNMENT lol
Yeah dude finish your assignment goddamn
nice vlog randomly got on my feed
Hope you enjoyed it!
Fun video Vijit!
Hi **D**oha, thank you.
I am nice to everyone, besides my friends 🙃
get help@@vijitdua
amazing video bro
Thank you :)
congrats on uc davis! did you get scholarship or financial aid at UC Davis? id be grateful if you replied
I didn’t, UCs rarely do that with international students since they are public universities. If you get into honors though then you can get that. (You can get into honors on admission or in your first quarter if you perform well enough you might be invited to join honors in your second quarter.)
I did get that in HKU and HKUST
@@vijitdua i see! thanks for replying.
congrats Vijit 🥂 wish you a very good luck 🎉
thank you! :)
Fun video man, that " move in " part looked really tiring tho 😂💀
yeah too much travel and also I had a bad cold for a few days. Also thank you!
nice video
Thanks
Was this premium economy?
No, business class
HI.I was waiting for this video about 3 days
the wait is over now 😎
Proud of you vijit ! Also the editing >>
Thank you!🫡
Bro it’s a really good video not even kidding
Appreciate it, thank you!
hey Vijit can you make a video on how you made it to UC DAVIS that would inspire us a lot
To be quite frank, I don’t see myself making such a video anytime soon - however all my application data and essays are public, if you check the link in the description of my previous video, hope that helps :)
LES GO VIJIT!!!!
😎
Hey... HOW ON EARTH DID YOU GET YOUR OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS? Can you pleaseeee help me out with this?
Ayyyy congratulations! And thanks for the Stats, would really help me as a reference.
i also need a waiver if got into mit bro 🤣
Paiso ki Kami hai bro
Well btw my family income is 12lacs per annum would I get a waiver?
Congrats my g ✊keep it up
Didn’t expect to see you here, but thanks!
@@vijitdua no problem bro
Congratulations on getting accepted into UC Davis! I toured their campus, and it is a beautiful place to learn! I was initially considering applying, but my parents said they don't have undergraduate nursing, and they want me to start in community college first. Enjoy learning Computer Science over there! BTW, Davis has a class called "The Design of Coffee" where you drink and learn all about coffee!
Thank you, all the best with your own college journey and yes I am indeed aware of that coffee class. I would have taken it except it would be excess credit since my CS classes give me the same general education credit haha.

Gotta get the anxiety higher fr
"worst she can say is no" you've been deferred
Worse she can say is "you've been deferred" You're waitlisted

Make sure to subscribe and check out my other videos if you want. And if you like gaming videos, I have a few dozen uploaded on my gaming channel @funnyizer Also, I got a conditional offer from CUHK on April 4, but I'm still going with the university I mentioned in the video :).

What are positional grades, I have a high dip in grade 11, so it would be great if you could explain me this
Check the stats in the description, it contains an explanation of positional grades there.
@@vijitdua yeah, what does that mean
@@ayaan6379 Look at my UC essays and the additional info section, its clarified there as well incase it's not visible on the webpage. Also I was able to get in touch with my AO (some transcript submission issues), and they don't really care about 11th and 9th grade results for Indian board students as much as board results.
stats?
discription
haha you got rejected cry bout it
ur mum
Congratulations Man! I got waitlisted originally from Davis and not gonna LIE, I cried. Around the beginning of May, I heard back from and got accepted. Utterly lost it. It feels so good man I'm so happy for you. If we ever get the chance, looking forward to meeting you🎓🤝
dude ucs aint a "party school", if they dont like ur essays u work on the essays instead of telling L and F to the universities
*USC - and Party school 🗿 change my mind
omg i also applied ea to MIT and UChicago (got deferred from both then got accepted into both :) )
Goddamn congratulations!
Congratulations🎉❤! Just curious to know why you and so many people feel the need to apply to so many schools, like what is the reasoning behind that? Also how much on average is an application fee?
its easier to see to a rejection now than wonder 10 years down the road “what if I applied to xyz school”. At the same time not shotgunning gives you more time to solidify the application but different perspectives
