Dartmouth 2023 Applicants Discussion

So the FA emails don’t mean anything?

@homerdog I am so sorry to read this news. I’ve been following this board because my daughter has a friend who applied to Dartmouth. I was really pulling for your son!

@dkahfdfhk - Live and let live…there will be a lot of bloodletting tonight.

DD accepted

What are you talking about lmao @BuffDad2022

GOT INTO DARTMOUTH AND BROWN!!!

Aw @Tea4Two thanks. He’s fine. Psyched to visit Bowdoin and Davidson. And maybe some others…

Rejected, hope it went great for the rest of y’all!

I got rejected! Rejected from all selective schools I applied to and waitlisted at one… although it isn’t the end of the world, I wish I would have at least been waitlisted. Why with such a high unweighted gpa and lors, donations and lots of legacy status? I will never know the true reason. Probably too many amazingly qualified applicants? Kinda annoying. Probably my act score of 30 which didn’t help. Didn’t have enough time to do subject tests or take it again. I almost want to send an appeal letter. Thoughts? Thanks!
Should’ve applied ed

Rejected

Son was deferred in December and Accepted today!

@minniemouse143 - Exact same scenario for S22 last year. Just relived the experience through text with our son, who is studying at his dorm as I type. CONGRATS!!!

GOT IN!!!

Accepted!!!

Now that I’m not crying: accepted!!!

Accepted! got the FA email in March definitely a correlation!!

DD got accepted!! So happy. And FA is the best among all of schools admitted her. Amazing!

By the way, DD did not get any FA emails in either Feb or March. Hence you do not really need these emails to be admitted.

Waitlisted. Anyone else waitlisted? I’m an international student with an SAT of 1490 Subject tests of Chemistry 740 and Biology 720 yet I was rejected at all 19 schools I applied to except Dartmouth. How is this even possible?

son waitlisted but happy with other choices; 1580 SAT, 800 and 770 SAT II, rank 1/437 in public high school , IB, student body pres and heavy choir , theater, debate
