College of the Holy Cross Class of 2020 ED/RD

My parents who live in Beijing got a letter from Holy Cross’ Admissions Director. It says that they are very delight that I applied to Holy Cross and blah blah blah. Do they send this to every family? BTW the letter was written on Jan 12 (2 weeks after I submitted my app) but my parents never checked the mail box lol…

@fiona1997 i got that to

Well just checked… I think my parents did not get that email… I have a question that did your guys send essays about showing your interests to Holy Cross?

@Merlion0723 it was sent via mail not email. I did send in an essay or sort of because uhmm the letter in the mail contained a website where we will fill some optional additional information and other stuff, in the form of an essay if you feel like

I think it was sent to every applicant

Still did not receive any package from colleges… I am an international applicant as well and I come from China. I have sent a short essay through email. Ah…Holy Cross is my first choice right now and I feel so nervous about the decision.

@Merlion0723 im also international from Nigeria…Good luck!

I sent in additional essay but don’t know how much it will help. I was actually shocked that my parents got mail in the mailbox since Beijing is so far away… I also received big package and letters from them but I think it’s because I live not far from the campus…

Is the result gonna release on Friday ( today) or Saturday?

@Lindyy80 Saturday

Got rejected.
“For the Class of 2020 we received over 6680 applications for 765 places”
Apparently they only gave admission to 11% of all applicants.

I was waitlisted. Im a little surprise that i wasn’t rejected considering my huge aid as an international…i guess i will be accepting a spot

Congrats to those accepted

Waitlisted

@coll123456 are you international

No. I won’t be accepting my spot on the waitlist as I got into BC
