*****Bates College Class of 2020 ED and RD Discussions*****

@sara-alq I’m glad there are other Arabs. I’m from Iraq. Good luck!

I’m glad too!

I’m rejected :frowning:

Rejected! :)>-

Waitlisted, but won’t take a place on the waitlist. Good luck all!

@snow30 Good luck! You still haven’t got anything? How many colleges are you still waiting to hear back from?

^i have 2 left…franklinanmarshall and NYU

Was the pin just a random number? I feel like an idiot because they emailed like ten times but it turns out my pin was just saved in my web browser but it won’t let me copy and paste it into the new portal. So were yours random numbers or did it have some sort of pattern that I may be able to remember?

@negirl98 I think they were just random
Also for anyone on the wait list like me, just a heads up that their FAQ says they will release decisions about the wait list from early May to late June, so you’ll be losing your deposit to another school. Also they say the number of people that get off spans from 0-30 so 8-X looks like im not taking that haha

@snow30 Good Luck!

^thanks

Turns out they’re open today so I got my pin and was accepted!

@sara-alq Do you still have admissions left?

@negirl98 Congrats!

@snow30 So here lol … Did you send your scores?

@Dan786 naah I went test optional

@snow30 Didn’t send either. Rejection from me too then.

Annnnnd I got rejected. Why am I not surprised? Haha. Do they do appeals?

Naah, you might be lucky!
Have you been accepted anywhere else?

@Dan786

@alkasir mhmm I have 12 acceptances in the US… but none with a good financial aid package thats why i was hoping that bates would be best because its need-based
my last one is reed
