I just committed to play softball good luck to everyone I hope you are all future Bobcats (:
Congrats, I have coach’s support for track/cross country, but I still have to get in with everything else of course
@foreverafreshie Eh, but you’re not accepted yet right? Well good luck! @bmx0564 I have the coach support for soccer but still, there’s everything else haha good luck guysss, hope we all get in!
@jesuismari they havent sent me an official acceptance letter but Im guarenteed an acceptance
@foreverafreshie never heard about that, specially at Bates but ok. I know people that were committed to play a sport there but weren’t accepted, and other people that were.
@jesuismari the coach told me that my academics were strong enough and she offered me her last roster spot. if you’r academics are strong enough they can guarantee you an acceptance
^Not technically true, since admissions has the final say. That said, I know Bates admissions has made a concerted effort in the past few years to work closely with the athletic department to avoid scenarios in which a coach offers a student a roster spot but can’t deliver due to the student’s academics. The softball coach has undoubtedly run foreverafreshie’s academic file past admissions for a preread. If what she says here is accurate I would be very surprised if she were not admitted.
Congratulations foreverafreshie and all the other future Bobcats!
@foreverafreshie I found this at Bates’ website ‘‘but no coach at any NESCAC college has the authority to offer, promise or otherwise guarantee a spot in the incoming class to any recruited student-athlete.’’ Dear, I think you should check that info correctly.
@jesuismari @Sue22 is right. They did not promise me a spot without even considering my academics. She went to admissions and got it approved. She never promised my spot, but she told me that admissions accepted me and I was her last spot on the roster.
@foreverafreshie Well, congratulations then! 
Five says left good luck to everyone are you guys freaking out?
I wish the day would come soon enough! I can’t wait much longer! At least the weekend will make the next several days go by faster

Do decisions come out at a certain time?
@foreverafreshie I can’t remember if it is st 6 or 9 pm. I’m super nervous!
I don’t think they come out at a certain time
@bmbxc57 Actually, they do haha
this is so unfair. I am an ED applicant. And I was sent a mail to login my log in details. And i should visit “bates.edu/application”
This website has not opened for me at alll. It has been months.
what do I do?
@bubblegumoy Can I help you then? Look, check if you’re writing the ID and the PIN correctly. Everyone else’s is opening and there’s no reason for yours not to. Check it carefully then tell me if it doesn’t, then we can try something else.
no the problem is that, the website doesnt even open. talkless of having to type in my log in details
I am in the UK
