Colgate Class of 2020 RD Decision Thread

@lovelybearsg - Thank you so much for testing it out for us… Sorry to hear that you were rejected, though. :frowning: You’ll be a great fit elsewhere, I’m sure!
@admitmemaybe - I applied to 14 other schools. I’m waiting on the last 6 (including Colgate)!

P.S. @JDBoi78 - I think it’s about time for us to freak out, man. And then check again tomorrow to verify.

When i entered my portal account and password it said Invalid username or password even though I can log in to the portal

@JDBoi78 and @zimzamzoom I had applied to 14 schools total and have only heard from 3…this upcoming week is going to be one emotional rollercoaster for me!! Where else did y’all apply? (Sorry if you posted it somewhere else!)
@lovelybearsg Thank you so much for checking for us! And I echo the sentiments previously said—some other school will be perfect for you :slight_smile:

Wait - but I don’t have to log in to see the checklist… it somehow has my name on it immediately. Hmm…

I have never logged into the portal. How do I get my login information?

Maybe you were already logged in? @JDBoi78

@vlindo I just closed out my browser and went back on and I was already logged in haha… I guess it’s just kept my information in.

@JDBoi78 - if you’ve already signed in once or into the portal, it will remember you. I just had the same experience. EDIT: Clear your history/cookies, and you’ll be prompted to enter your info again.

@admitmemaybe - Get ready for this bad boy of a list. Jk, more like I put in way too many apps. I applied to American (waiting to hear), Boston U (acc.), Brown (WAITING ANXIOUSLY), Colgate (here we are), Dual BA Columbia/Sciences Po (rej.), GWU (LL), Georgetown (waiting), Harvard (lol), Princeton (waiting), UChi (WL), Penn (ED rej.), Pitt (acc., safety), URochester (acc.), Ursinus (acc.). What about you?

My fingers are crossed for everyone!

I applied to 9 other schools and got deferred by one already, so I’m super nervous!

@panpnyc - it should have been e-mailed to you a few months ago (whenever you applied to the college)!

Don’t panic guys, your package will arrive tomorrow. Now, I have a dilemma, been admitted to Grinnell (with aid), Colgate (with aid), UChicago (without aid as I did not apply to raise my chance), now just realize that it is too hard to go to Chicago even though I love it, most likely I will go to Colgate then

I just did the new student thing and logged in with my info and I have all those housing forums and such…maybe everyone should check to see if its only for some people or all…and your login info should have been sent you in an email with the subject “Your Colgate University admission account”

Yeah, I definitely had to log in to see the checklist. When I click the search result, it prompts me to log in.

@panpnyc you should have gotten an email right around the time you submitted your app with your log in information.

I never received it, but I did get an email from the financial aid office and on the common app it shows that the application was submitted.

Hmm, I’m not sure then. I received the confirmation email the day after I submitted my application in December. Maybe email them if you’re worried…you may not need it for admission decisions but if you’re admitted and attend, you definitely will @panpnyc

Thanks! @admitmemaybe

I’m also in NYC and didn’t get anything yet, so feeling nervous. Was it confirmed that all of the acceptances that were received yesterday were FedEx?

My list is insane, I applied to 18 all together: American, BC (rejected), Brandeis (accepted), Colgate, Cornell, Dartmouth, Davidson (rejected), Duke, Emory (LL), High Point (accepted), Holy Cross (accepted), McGill (accepted), Rollins (accepted), George Washington, Penn, Wake Forest, Washington and Lee, and Williams. @zimzamzoom

@panpnyc People received decisions by mail yesterday?

A few in NYC by FedEx according to this thread.

@panpnyc I see! I just saw that post. Fingers crossed for tomorrow.
