Bowdoin - Class of 2020 ED / RD Discussion

@mountaincoco The wait feels so slow compared to applying!

Is it Friday yet?

Still 3 days to go…Aw

Do we know for sure that we find out on Friday?

@foodisgood16 They should really post something on their website or Facebook tomorrow so all ED applicants will take note.

@foodisgood16 I was told by the Admissions Officer for our state that the information would be no later than Friday, so it could indeed come tomorrow, or any day between now and then. That is what I was told exactly a month ago today!

@karlmarx2020 You were asking about stats so here are mine. (Thank you for starting this thread by the way; I was wondering where it was!) I’m applying ED1 and submitted a 2220 on the SAT and a 36 on the ACT with an UW GPA of 3.82. My more specific stats are in the link here: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/bowdoin-college/1830079-chance-me-edi.html#latest

I applied ED… I’m a white guy from central NH. I got a 2280 superscore and a 34 ACT. I also have an NGA (unweighted average) of 95.7. I’m kind of freaked out by this waiting game. Hang in there, guys!

70 Hours…I think…

Hey guys, I applied ED too. From SC. So incredibly anxious it hurts.

I need something to do while waiting… Preferably not homework even though I have a Biology outline due on Friday lol.

This totally isn’t helping my anxiety… But I made a countdown clock. http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/to?iso=20151211T19&p0=1081&msg=ED+Notification&font=serif&csz=1

My college counselor keeps telling me that it’s on the fifteenth. what if it doesn’t come out on Friday?

The direct quote from our state’s Admissions’s Officer at Bowdoin:

Me: When should we know about the ED results? Him: “Results for ED 1 are out 12/11 and for ED 2, we release results 2/1.”

So breathe deeply, my friends, try to relax, and keep doing that homework (including my own son…)

It needs to come out on Friday…I’m too stressed y’all

I’m kind of freaking out about possibly being deferred for regular decision (or even worse rejected) because of my 1 C in Honors Stats. I’m trying to raise my grade before the semester ends but it’s not going so well sigh. My teacher isn’t the one to give extra credit either. :frowning:

“Update for ED 1 Applicants: We will release decisions into your application portals on Friday Dec. 11, 2015 at 7 PM EST” - Bowdoin College Admissions Facebook Page

Told ya! Now just breathe…

Can’t wait! Excited to find out.
I even made a CC account just for this.

No matter what happens, be proud and resilient. Will check back up tomorrow

Less than 6 hours. Srsly I’m freaking out

Just a bit more than 5 hours. Holy crap, this day is moving at sloth speed…
