Calling all Claremont College People

Hey! Decisions for Pitzer College EA get sent out Jan. 1st. Anyone else on the board like myself apply EA to Pitzer and anxiously awaiting a response??? Also if you got applied ED to Harvey Mudd, Pomona, CMC, Scripps and got accepted and would like to post your SAT/GPA and why you love your school so much that would be cool. You don’t need to post an essay about your application etc. (unless you want to) but I figured it would be cool to see who is ending up in the one of the 5 Cs next year. Curious to hear how excited the ED’ers are and what they hope for next year as a freshman in college. I am waiting for Scripps EDII in Feb.15 so I am nervous about that. Hopefully I will see some ED’ers next year if I get accepted. well… Share your enthusiasm! :slight_smile:

<p>ne1? bump~!</p>

<p>hey. i got in ED to cmc. i'm really excited because i'm from va and i've lived here my entire life so i get to live on the west coast for the next 4 years, which should be ultra exciting !! good luck on pitzer and scripps :)</p>

<p>congrats domirican2005 ! I like CMC a lot but I didn't feel I had the stats to get in. I am from NJ so I look foward to living on the West Coast. Pitzer stuff gets sent out in less than a week!~ OMG! lol</p>

<p>I applied EA to pitzer... cant wait to find out! anyone know when they found out last year? all they said was "after jan 1"</p>

<p>i am so excited princess, we have less than a week! I hope I don't get deffered or anything because it is my first school I will receive a notification by and it will be depressing to start off my college applications with a rejection. I really like Pitzer and the Claremont Area. Did you get anything from Pitzer concerning parts of your received application etc.? I didnt get anything like that. In fact, I haven't received one thing from them. I hope I am not the only one!</p>

<p>I didn't get anything like that. But I did get a reminder about their app deadline of january 15 coming up. that scared me... So now I'm wondering if they didn't get my app or if it's just because i'm on the waiting list. gonna call them today and make sure theyve got it</p>

<p>Just called. Got a recorded message- office is closed until Jan3. Does that mean admit letters wont be sent out until they get back?</p>

<p>im confused because the view book says "notification letters will be sent BY jan 1st" maybe we will get stuff today? Where are you at? I am in NJ so it may come later for me</p>

<p>Im in WA state. nothing today... maybe they just dont want to have people calling and bugging them, so they say theyre closed? i hope they really do send them out before the 3rd</p>

<p>i just got rejected and it sux because I really thought I was more than qualified. Now I have to find a new safety/match school and I feel so let down!</p>

<p>Sorry valuable! Can you post your stats pls?</p>

<p>I got deferred. wow. it was my safety school. 3.6/1480</p>

<p>Most people would look at this and say my SAT scores are too low. What i think i had going for me is that I wasnt looking at like Stanford, Yale, Harvard, etc. The schools i listed and told my interviewer were similar to Pomona like Amherst, Bowdoin and Williams. I stressed how much i wanted a small college</p>
