***Gettysburg College RD 2022 Applicants***

@pfdgjb oh where are you from ? By the way I think internationals will receive emails, not sure.

They may come today for some, but they were sent out yesterday!

Did anyone receive anything yet? :slight_smile:

No nothing. Can anyone register for get aquainted day?

They sure are taking a while to inform us :confused:

I looked at the portal and there was some language about being waitlisted in small print bottom left, so I assume my son has been waitlisted.

I have that on my page too. Hopefully it’s just a general blurb and doesn’t reflect the decisions that went out

I have that written in my portal too. The statements didn’t mention anything about my actual decision, instead it just gave a few instructions to follow in case of being put on that waitlist. However, I assumed that I had been waitlisted when I saw it first but you managed to change my mind. I hope it’s just a general statement and good luck, you all.

Hoping it will be in the mail today, fingers crossed! Gettysburg is one of my top choices if I can get the aid from them if not I’ll be sticking to a SUNY school.

Is that waitlist language on the Welcome page of MyGettysburg?

I looked on every page of my portal and don’t see the waitlist language - where is it?

hoping to be accepted after getting waitlisted at Boston University on Sat.

Yes it is on the left side of the welcome page. If you do not see that perhaps your were not waitlisted. I went through the messages from 2017 and quite a few people had the same message. The snail mail method allowed them to finally receive waitlisted letters. No one said that they had the message and were not waitlisted, but you never know. There is a link to go in and sign up on the waitlist and say if Gettysburg is your top choice and why you want to go there. If this is your top choice and you have that link on your portal, I would recommend filling it out before you get your snail mail. It won’t hurt you if you get an acceptance letter and might put you higher on the waitlist. Hopefully letters will arrive today.

I am able to log in to resister for Get Acquainted Day - is that a good sign?

I definitely don’t have that waitlist message.

I visited once, from NY, 4.31W and 32 ACT (9 APs, 4 honors)

I also have a check box on the Get Acquainted Day registration asking if I want to attend the Abe Lincoln Scholars breakfast!?!?!? Gettysburg is one of my top choices so I’m very excited!!!

where on the portal are you guys seeing all this stuff

I see the waitlist bit on the portal, too. It’s beneath the welcome message you always see first when you log into myGettysburg.

"Thank you for visiting myGettysburg and for your application for the Gettysburg College Class of 2022.

If you are interested in receiving additional consideration for admission to Gettysburg as an active candidate on the waiting list, please be sure to submit the interested waitlist form by April 16. You can complete this form online or mail the form to the Gettysburg College Admissions Office.

You can also check our waiting list FAQ’s for additional details regarding the waiting list at Gettysburg."

Try to log into your portal from there - that’s how I saw my information.

Well I can’t sign up so I am glad to know I got rejected

I too see the Abe Lincoln Scholars breakfast, and I do not see a hint of any information regarding being wait-listed. Does that mean anything?

aaaand… the waitlist stuff has disappeared from my portal. I need to calm down and forget about this for a while. Been checking the portals way too much.
