Today, my friend, who also applied to Colby, got a letter that was an “early acceptance” letter and said he was a part of the presidential scholar program. However, I did not get a letter and am now worried about my admissions chances.
Are these letters a widespread thing/ how many kids get them? Should I be worried if I didn’t get one?
no/few, no
I got one! I heard that only 30 do though, so definitely don’t be worried.
My daughter received the early acceptance letter today too.
Our son received it too - Presidential Scholar at Colby, hooray!
I received such a letter last week, as did a classmate of mine.
There are not a ton of students that get to be presidential scholars here at Colby so don’t worry about it! Still a chance!
