Got my acceptance package in the mail this today. International here.
@nepalikta i received the package from FedEx today. Accepted with great Financial Aid… this is what relief must feel like…
@yash22 i have not received anything yet…this suspense is killing me…where do u live? and when did u get it?
@nepalikta i received a call from FedEx this morning. I was at Baneshwor today, so I asked them to deliver it there.
Don’t miss the call. Yours is on the way for sure…
I received the package at around 2 pm. There’s a holiday tomorrow. so, if you don’t receive today, the wait will be excrutiating.why don’t you call FedEx to ensure that the package has arrived…You could even go pick it up at Kantipath…
@yash22 thank u. i think i’ll do that
@yash22 i called…the fedex people say there is no shipmesnt from colgate to my name…this is too painful
What does your portal say?
My portal just says:
Colgate’s Office of Admission has appreciated the contact we have had with you through your college search. We understand that you are eager to learn the outcome of your application. The application review phase is now complete. We plan to communicate our admission decisions within the next week. We do not display decisions on the portal and we do not give out decisions over the phone. We thank you again for your interest in Colgate and give you our best wishes for your college career.
@nepalikta maybe its not arrived yet… since you’ve not received an email, you’re definitely in.
i know how you feel though…
@yash22 what if its late because i have been waitlisted? i mean we are in the same country, our decisions should come at the same time isn’t it?
Colgate’s acceptance package is so cute! They’ve given a poster, sticker, and calendar. And the dean wrote a personalized note on my acceptance letter! Now I get why they prefer snail mail.
I’m so glad you got in! Congratulation! Thanks for posting this on the site! It’s nice to know the timing. I guess I’ll get a fat package or thin letter today (Monday).
Hi everyone, so did they send all rejections and waitlists by email already? I have school and work so I can’t be home to check until late
I’m international and I haven’t got any email or package too! Practically all other applicants from my country have received their decisions. They received the packages in the morning and it’s nearly 22:00 here. I live in the capital, so if there’s a package, I should definitely get it earlier than most people. And I called FedEx and had them checked, turned out that there’s no package from Colgate to me:(
@chingchingli @milocrotonus what do your portals say?
@chingchingli do u have any idea what might be the reason? do u know how waitlist decisions are sent to international students? man this is painful…
I know waitlists received emails even earlier than rejections… I really don’t know what’s happening. I suppose Colgate sent me an email, but my email service blocked it. Actually, I never received (not even in the spam folder) Colgate’s email confirming my application and including my portal, but in later correspondence a Colgate representative confirmed that they did send me this email. I think I’m pretty much rejected… =((
same as most people’s
I see at least two other applicants from my country in the same situation as ours. They never received an email or a package. And when they call FedEx, there’s nothing in record, either. This is soooooo weird.
Waitlisted in NY. SAT: 2040 GPA: 94.5/100
