Gettysburg College RD Class of 2020

Hahaha. @Denam98 I am from Pakistan and I totally understand your situation and trust me your essay will get you in if nothing else does. Your stats and all are great but the edgy part seems to be your essay tbvh.
As far as the financial aid is concerned. Tell me about it man. It is such a pain to ask for aid cuz it honestly ends up becoming a humongous reason for rejections.
However, lets hope they end up taking both of us since we really ride the same boat tbvh.

Exactly @Raamael, It’s just so much disapointing to know that you could enter any school you want if you had more money ! I think it’s what you pay to be born in a country from the third world ! If I didn’t get accepted this year my only choice would be to apply next year since colleges here ( actually I don’t know if there is a word to describe how bad they are ).

Anyway, I think it’s enough pessimism. let’s hope as you said for the best !

@Denam98 again we live the same life. Its just such a terrible feeling tbvh.
Anyhow, even if we go for a gap year -hopefully not- we ll know someone else going through same.
Goodluck to both of us man. Lets hope One college takes us with substantial aid

Best of luck Raamael!

@DrivingDad thank you.
Have you applied as well?

International here. Any exact data on when the decision will be mailed/emailed to us?

@ZainSD are you from Pakistan?
What are your stats and are you asking for fin aid?
They ll be emailed on 18th for rejected and waitlisted internationals and mailed on 18th for accepted internationals

Yes.
Decent-ish. Yes I am.
Okay. Thank you.
@Raamael

Pretty much the need for FA has got me rejected at 2 colleges and wait listed in 1. :frowning:

@ZainSD same here man. Same here.
Aid is a huge pain. What are your standardised scores?

Are we finding out this week?

Friday

I thought the website said end of march, how do you know it is friday?

I had a talk with my counselor.

Holy Shit! We’re gonna get the decisions tomorrow?

I was on the GettysburgAdmissions twitter page and saw a post directed at class of 2020 applicants to “stay tuned”. I’m inferring from the rather vague post that the decisions have been mailed out already or will be very soon i.e. today or tomorrow.

They mail em tomorrow.

Just looked on the admissions twitter, they are putting the packages together. So I bet they will be mailed out tomorrow. Is this stressing anyone else out?

I checked GettysburgAdmissions’ twitter again (I follow all of my colleges on twitter,) and this time they had a picture of them packing the acceptance envelope.

What stats do y’all have? And are you asking for aid?
