anyone else applying for the dartmouth bound program for this summer? I’m doing my application tonight . I’m excited !
Also if anyone knows the acceptance rate that would be great to know, I have no idea how selective this program is or not. I just kinda chose it because I assumed I would get into QuestBridge cps and didn’t apply to any summer programs. Then to find out I was rejected and there were like 2 programs still open for applications was like :neutral: so yeah
Thank you for making this thread! I’ve been checking the portal sooo often. I was even at a sweet 16 yesterday and checking nonstop loll. Good luck to you too!
I applied too!! oh my I’m so nervous, do you think they’ll release decisions this week? and how many do you think applied/will get accepted?
I know they’ll probably email us to tell us the portal’s been updated LOL
I know, I’m just anxious lol
I applied too, when were acceptees announced last year?
lol decisions are out #rejected !!
Decisions are out yall, I got rejected
I didn’t get in either, but was anyone else told that their application was strong so their application fee was waived? or did everyone get that and it doesn’t mean anything
I got that too… they probably gave it to everybody, which is super nice though.
Got same message and am wondering the same thing!
Hey! I got rejected as well but I figured I would because I’m not from a culturally underrepresented background. I also got the same notification that they would wave me fee. I’m not sure if it’s for everyone or not, but I did feel that my application was strong so who knows.
rejected also but got waiver of application fee if apply to Dartmouth - is that what they usually say?
I got the same thing… I saw on some thread that somebody said they had seen plenty of people get rejected from bound and get into Dartmouth but they didn’t say anything more than that so I’m not relying on that too much… but that fee waiver is too good to pass up so I’m gonna apply anyways LOL
Aye bklyn rejection gang ?
One thing I forgot to mention in my app is that I’m queer because I didn’t want it to give me an unfair advantage in my application, but now looking back they said they were looking for people from underrepresented backgrounds so I probably should’ve based my essay around it or something
Ah, got you. I feel the same, but that’s why I’m wondering if it’s genuine or if it’s just like “aw, here you go”
Hm, yeah, I get that, but in which essay would you have written about it though? I felt like their prompts were so specific.
i guess all three of us got rejected dang, but we also all three got a few waiver so that’s cool. are you guys applying at all and if you do are you doing ED or RD?
