***** COLGATE UNIVERSITY 2019 RD Applicants *****

I didn’t receive an email from Preptalk. I’ll just assume that this signifies that I didn’t make it (should ease the suffering later).

@stillakid‌ @BuckLn‌ I received them too. I didn’t even pay attention to what the email said until I got the apology. Now that @katherinediaz3 mentioned that she didn’t get these emails, I think they accidentally sent one to everyone whose name is on the acceptance list. My guess is that it was only meant for Early Decision acceptees and Colgate’s emailing system (or the staff member running it) didn’t differentiate between early and regular acceptees in the database.

Perhaps I’m being too optimistic or speculative, but I can’t think of any other reason why some applicants got an admitted students chat invitation and others did not.

I work in the Colgate Office of Admission and can confirm that the email some of you received was sent in error only to those who previously participated in online chats via PrepTalk. Sorry about that!

Really? My D attended a PrepTalk and didn’t get one??

@asizzo it has said this since my deferral, even before that actually. And I did not receive the preptalk email either.

Yep. The email I used to sign up for Preptalk got one. The email I used for my application didn’t. So an error is just an error.

Good luck to everyone!

Does anyone know when RD decisions are coming out

It should be March 24

Just checked Colgate’s admission web page:
Admission Decision Information
Decisions will be sent on Tuesday, March 24. Applicants with domestic addresses will have their decisions sent via U.S. postal mail or a courier delivery service. Applicants with non-U.S. mailing addresses will have their decisions sent via a global courier delivery service or e-mail.

SO INCREDIBLY ANXIOUS-- good luck to everyone waiting for decisions!

In Gary We Trust

So are decisions coming out tomorrow or getting mailed tomorrow so we get it later than tuesday?

@crystalwaters23 I think they’re being mailed tomorrow so then we would get them by around thursday

@CrystalWaters23 Yea mailed tomorrow… but for ED it was weird because some kids in Cali got it the next day, but kids like 2 hrs from 'gate got it after 3 days.

What about internationals? They’re decisions are going to be sent electronically. Are they supposed to expect a response today?

Yup I just received the email. It’s a very uplifting rejection letter though.

@rotckid an email??

Rejected lol. But I’m accepted by Middlebury so I’m not mad.

are you guys both international? I’m considered international as well but I’m a domestic resident, and I haven’t received any emails yet.
