Class of 2022 Macalester ED Applicanfs

Hi everyone! I applied to Macalester College ED just last week and I thought I could create a thread here for everyone who has done the same. :slight_smile:

I really hope I get in! Mac is my dream school. I’m definitely not feeling 100% confident that I will get in, though. My GPA is 3.67 and I got a 30 on the ACT My extracurriculars include being a part of my school’s honor society, band, jazz band, playing accompaniment for various school organizations, choir, history club, knowledge bowl, student council (representative last year, treasurer this year), and debate club.

I’m in the same boat as you - 28 ACT and a 3.67. Mac’s my dream school, too! Good luck to all :slight_smile:

Applied as an international applicant. 1470 in sat. Any idea about the decision date?

Received an email this morning.

Rejected

The result was disappointing but not crushing like I had expected. Kinda figure out that my SAT (1440) and GPA (8.7/10) are not good enough for them.

I’m an international and folks who get into Mac here all have 1500 SATs and 9.0+ GPA.

Though I was a bit hurted that I was a flat-out rejection, not even a deferral.

Received an email this evening and was ACCEPTED into the class of 2022!

I am a US student.

Congrats to everyone and good luck to all!

Rejected. Not surprised, but disappointed :frowning: Good job everyone!

oops commented on the wrong thread :frowning:

I was also rejected without being deferred so I know how you feel. It sucks. :confused: But I’m still waiting on another acceptance letter from a different school so hopefully I’ll get in there. I hope you get in somewhere else too! Good luck! :slight_smile:
