Hello everyone, I am an international student, from Africa, got bad sat score (1270 redesigned), applied early decision, slowly dying of suspense (even though i know I am for sure rejected seeing others stats). Does any one have any information about decision notification other than the plain info “We plan to communicate our admission decisions soon” on the portal and “Decisions will be sent on Monday, December 12” on the admissions website.?
@africanApplicant don’t write yourself off! your test scores truly do not define you and I am sure there are other part s of your application that stand out, and will give you an amazing shot!! Also, I know it’s tough, but you shouldn’t compare yourself to others, there is only one you and you are unique applicant in your own way!! Best of luck!! Also, in terms of when decisions come out I have absolutely no idea. Wish I did!!!
the wait is killing me!!! but yes, they said in their Q&A on twitter that they will be sent on the 12th.
So If decisions will be sent on 12th then it would surely take 2-3 days for international students to recieve packages and almost a day for US applicants. However, people who get rejected will receive rejection Emails on 12th. So pray to god that you don’t receive an Email

@gardenstategal what do you mean sign up for Fedex alerts/how do you do it? is there a link?
Go to fedex.com. I believe that anyone can set up delivery preferences (such as “leave packages by front door”) as well as instructions to send a text when a package is on its way.
@gardenstategal sorry to be a pain i still dont understand, it says i need a reference or number:/
I think it might be because I’m from the UK
On the fedex site, enroll in “fedex delivery manager.”
Ho ma god im freaking out now because so many of my friends got accepted to schools yesterday!! Fingers crossed for everyone we can get through this together hahah
Yeah. Just hope for the best.
@gardenstategal @sahil123 Current Colgate freshman here. I am a US resident and had my acceptance packet mailed via USPS, not FedEx. Best of luck to everyone.
@cawlidge , they’re onto us! Congrats!
@gardenstategal I also have no affiliation with the admissions building. Just remembered how anxious I was this time last year waiting for my decision to come. Good luck!
@cawlidge Yeah. From the prevuious threads I gathered that domestic applicants get their acceptances through USPS and international applicants through FedEx.
@sahil123 Sounds right from what I remember. Feel free to reach out with any questions regarding Colgate!
The day has arrived. Good Luck
Do any international students receive any email or notification yet? So anxious/ Good luck everyone
Dear fellow sufferers,
May the universe forbid, but if any one of us get rejection or any thing from Colgate to night (and the coming days) - we should say something here to keep the others on the same page.
Good luck to everyone
[Fingers crossed - legs shaking ]
