Presidential Scholar invite. It serves as a positive indication for your admissions decision.

265

Did you show any other demonstrated interest to Colby? I got the email but but a fat fat L

266

I don’t think so. All I did was send them an email asking about interviews. Maybe that counted?

267

And I’m so sorry. That must have felt so confusing. If you got the email you clearly deserved it and your regional admissions officer loved you!

268

Waitlisted! does Colby accept a lot of people from the waitlist?

269

Will Pulver Science Scholar acceptance be mentioned in the acceptance email or a separate email? Anyone knows?

Son got in and was interviewed for the Pulver program.

thanks!!

I also interviewed for the program and there was no mention of it in the acceptance letter. From what I read last year, I think it is normally included in the letter and there is no separate email.

273

My daughter got in, was a little surprised after getting waitlisted at Bates. And she did FA and got a decent package

Just drop that bundle of thoughts in the road and keep walking. If you go to Colby, you need to make the most out of the opportunity in order to honor all those who applied. Part of making the most of it is living and learning joyfully. Give back. Be humble. Pay it forward.

Now go celebrate!
