Hi! Starting a thread for anyone who is applying ED1 to Colby! Any predictions for acceptance rate this year?
Does anyone know if Colby requires 1st quarter grades for ED applicants?
Doesn’t look like it per the website or common app…but certainly they could request that info from a student’s GC if they want Q1 grades to help inform the admission decision.
Does anyone know when ED1 decisions for Colby will be released? Looks like it was Thurs 12/13 last year. So, maybe Thurs 12/12 this year??
And does anyone know how they announced that decisions were on the way? Instagram? Twitter?
Has anyone heard when decisions are being posted?
I haven’t heard or seen anything… was hoping it might be today or tomorrow. My son is very nervous - as are his parents!!
Nervous son and parents here too. Hoping for tomorrow!
Nervous student here, I have been waiting patiently. Hopeful they release on Friday.
According to the instagram post ED 1 decisions are being posted by 5pm today.
good luck to all! does anyone see any updates or changes in their portal yet?
Portal is up with decisions ! My son is excited for Colby class of 2024!
Congratulations! My daughter has been accepted too!!
Congratulations!! My son was accepted too!!!
I got in!
Congratulations, Mules!
My son is in. Congratulations to everyone who got in.
Would those who got in mind posting their stats or general info? Thx! Congrats to all.
1300, 4.1 gpa.
Son accepted!
4.1 weighted GPA at very competitive public school. 1540 SAT. Took 2 AP classes last year, 4 this year. Scored 4 and 5 on the two AP exams he’s taken so far.
Good extracurriculars , including 3 varsity sports and Eagle Scout. Track & Field recruit.
Feeling VERY fortunate, as he knows of many great candidates who were deferred or denied admission.
Sounds like plenty of deferrals ultimately get in, so hang in there if that’s you. Let Colby know that you really want to go there!
