<p>My councilor told me that Bowdoin asked me for more info. is this, by chance, a good sign?</p>
<p>I would say yes. Why would they bother to ask if they were not interested in you?</p>
<p>when i applied Bowdoin asked my counselor for more info as well and I ended up getting in so hopefully that will mean the same for you.</p>
<p>thanks! I got useful replies from “college admissions” forum, and now here. @crazyyy, are you going to attend Bowdoin?</p>
<p>absolutely.</p>
<p>Was rejected by Bowdoin.</p>
<p>They asked so many questions, my father, exhausted, sent them a dear John letter, in the hopes of having them stay clear of a positive answer, as they were hopelessly annoying.</p>
<p>We were accepted to Princeton, Williams, University of Chicago, Pomona, Stanford, and other safety schools. Being rejected is not so bad. It is about how you enable yourself to be a potential candidate.</p>
<p>Schools build classes, not GPA’s. That is why providing reasons for deliberation is more important than the numerical considerations of credentials.</p>
<p>Best wishes and Cheers!</p>
<p>@crazyyy: Nice! Brunswick is my hometown, so I would love to go back and study at Bowdoin. @HorseRadish: Yes, I’ve also heard many people who got accepted to prestige universities but was rejected by Bowdoin. Well you got accepted to amazing schools!</p>
<p>extra info on what?</p>
<p>@nkidd23: no idea. Actually, that’s what I’m wondering too.</p>
<p>They called my counselor last year and asked for additional information. They wanted to see my mid-year grades.
Its not a bad thing. They are interested in you and wanted to check up on you and see how you were doing in senior year.</p>
