Babson College Class of 2018 Official Acceptance Thread

<p>S got admitted… :)</p>

<p>Logged in to my portal, and I can’t see anything that states my admission decision. It is supposed to be in the message centre announcements? Nothing there. Anyone ran into this problem, or know what it means/how to fix?</p>

<p>Accepted after being deferred early action :)</p>

Search around “My Babson Portal” a bit, you should be able to find a link “View My Decision Letter.”</p>

<p>son waited listed after being deferred. he did a visit and interview last august. 3.7 unweighted GPA, high-level leadership in continuity and advancement, 1,980 SAT. Nice letter; debating on whether to do the waitlist. Input? His dad unsure if he should totally focus on business/entrepreneurship–not sure if son has clearly enough thoughts on what he wants to do yet. plus, assume little chance of any merit from waitlist (said 40-70 usually accepted out of 400 on waitlist). Said 6,000 applied, 480 slots to be filled. </p>
