Hey everyone.
Can you please chance me for ED2?
GPA 4.0/4.0. Have taken a really tough Alevels curriculum with subjects ranging from Math and Physics to Economics and Journalism. I have about 9 Courses in current year and have still maintained exceptional grades in my first trimester sessionals and midterms. (4.0).
My ACT is a 32. (28 E, 35 M, 31R, 32S). My Maths 2 subject score is 740 and Physics is 720. Other than that I have a really strong academic profile for last 4 consecutive school years.
Olevels: 8A*s and 3As.
My commonapp essay is a pretty personal essay which according to many is a strong displayer of who I am and how i have strongly faced risen over a discrimination that i faced. That doscrimination being a tanned/Dark complexion.
My Colgate supplement was pretty different. I wrote about one person impacting me in 3-4 ways and making me who I am today and in those 3-4 things I displayed diff sides of my personality. In the end I tell that, that one person is my Mom.
My Letter of Recs, eventhough i havent seen them, were hopefully very strong. One even came from UC Bekrley PHD who saw me as an influential leader in class at Stanford.
As far as my Extra curriculars are concerned, I have attended a Stanford Pre Collegiate summer program where i did great and got a letter of REC from My professor too. I was the Headboy (President) of my school and was also the Vice President (Deputy Headboy) of my school for consecutive years. I have 600+ hours of Community service. Internship at BBC and Frontier Core Hospital. I tutor students for free as well. I am Regional level swimmer and have been winning swimming competitions. I have founded two socieities as well which have been succesful in making an impact on lives of many people. I am a debater too. I have been chairing and Judging MUNs and Parliamentary debating competitions after ofcourse winning a dozen.
I also got to Visit states for GYLC a Conferrence as an ambassador of Pakistan.
My Honors include me winning International Kangaroo maths competition in my region and also coming first in Spelling bee competitons. National gold medals for Olevels and Alevels grades are also there. I was also a high achiever at United states Educational foundation pakistan ceremony, selected among 20 students from a pool of300000.
I am an international asking for a lot of aid though.

Hello!
I am a 2020 ED I applicant for Colgate and was curious on how early Colgate mails out acceptance letters. I sent out my application on November 8th… Please clarify if the portal changes when you get accepted and if rejections are also mailed. Thanks so much!
I heard they might’ve mailed them on Friday.
@collegestress28 Hi! If you’ve logged on your applicant portal since Friday you would see that it has changed, and that they intend to get decisions out to us within the next week (that was on Friday). They do not e-mail decisions, nor do they display them on the portal. I believe acceptances and rejections alike are mailed. I am freaking out because I feel like they are finished so early this year! I was expecting December 15th or later. Good luck!! your username is great lol
Thanks for the clarification and haha thank you- good luck to you too!!!
@collegestress28 No problem! They released an update on their website saying that they will be sending out decisions on Monday the 12th.
