2019 Class - EDII & RD

Accepted

Waitlisted with a 3.2/2000

flat out rejected. it seems like it was a tough year for everyone.

I needed tons of financial aid, so that probably was a contributing factor

Waitlisted with a 3.9/2050

Accepted!!! very surprised, also just got into colby!!! very good start to my day. 2110 sat superscored, 3.74 uw gpa

Very happy for D Accepted 3.7 2190, wait listed at Colby though

D rejected - 4.0 uw, 4.3 w, 8 APs/30 ACT. Surprised, but she’s been accepted to better schools. Rejections hurt though, she’s pretty depressed right now after a batch of rejections yesterday.

Waitlisted- 3.6 uw/4.3w/32 ACT

congrats to all who got in!!!

Congrats to you all who got in!!!
I was rejected .. that was really hurt because Bates is my dream ..

I was rejected. I never interviewed, so it wasn’t much of a surprise.

Accepted! 3.7ish UW/4.1 W/32 ACT. Good recs, good essay, and I interviewed with an alumnus in December.

I sincerely came back to this thread to check how it went for @jesuismari‌ . I am sorry about your rejection. You should move on. I hope you get into one of the other schools you applied to.
And goodluck everyone. Just know that a decision letter cannot change your life and its purpose!

I was asking for a considerable financial help too. Really, I think I was expecting this when I got deferred. I’m sad because Bates was my American dream college, but I speak here for all of us that got deferred/waitlisted/rejected, there’s a lot out there for us, maybe Bates wasn’t “meant to be”. :slight_smile:

Well, I was waitlisted…not quite sure what to do next
congrats to everyone who got in!!

Accepted with a good financial aid package actually… I didn’t interview either

I still haven’t heard from Bates. I received the email on Friday that said decisions would go out by noon Saturday. Did those who were accepted receive the letter and financial aid in the mail, not from an email?

No by mail…I believe my D got it via the portal / e-mail.

Would you mind giving me the portal link?
