Clemson class of 2022!!


Feb 13, 2018, 10:52 PM

Hello TNet! Today I received my acceptance letter from Clemson (general engineering)! Both my parents graduated from here and it has been a dream of mine to go to Clemson for forever. I've been spending Saturdays in Death Valley for as long as I can remember! I'm already counting down the days until I finally get to call this place home. Been a long time reader on this site but I figured this meant that it was about time I joined in on all the action.

Go Tigers!!!

Let's hope your daughter has better taste than engineering students.

What was your SAT score. GPA. Class rank? In state or out of state? Congrats. TU for you

I had a 1380 SAT score with a 4.65 gpa and ranked about 25/400. In state. And thanks!

You didn't have to answer that. Just some ### trying to make a point.


Feb 14, 2018, 12:10 AM

...but you completely undid his point making.

Good for you and way to EARN it! Clemson will NOT disappoint.

2 recommendations:
1. Stay ahead on studying/schoolwork.
2. Get involved in something that relates to your career, or something you want to be doing after college.

I would guess his point was dead on

High GPA and High SAT and in state gets you in

Certainly did for me 46 years ago. I had good grades and a GREAT SAT score, and in state. (Of course, this was back when SAT only had two parts, and had to walk uphill 5 miles in the snow in South Carolina both ways to/from high school, you get it.) Clemson was the only school I even applied to. I would have been SOL if I had not been accepted, at least for a year. I could be dead wrong, but I believe they put more emphasis, even back then, on high SAT / ACT scores than they do grades coming out of high school. It's that old "potential" thing.

"I see lots of potential in this room. YOU have potential, YOU have potential, etc." That was a great commercial.

Congrats to you young sir! It will be the best four years (or more depending on your style!) of your life! There truly is something in those hills...

Congrats, 2 pieces of advice.

1. Do well in school. You will appreciate it when you're 26.

2. Chase the hot tail all over campus. This is the only thing you will regret not doing more when you're 26.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

There needs to be an amendment to this


Feb 14, 2018, 5:01 AM

Never stop chasing hot tail. A 10:1 turn down/hit it ratio is actually very good.

Major kudos!!!

Congratulations Tiger!

You have probably heard already, but Engineering is the toughest major there is at Clemson in your Freshman year. Their goal is to intimidate and winnow you out early.

Not to discourage you, more of a heads-up. Bear down and play their game and you'll be fine if you have the chops. The upper class years will be much more fun.
