<p>I got the call this afternoon!! :)</p>
<p>Welcome to Mount St. James!</p>
<p>those who were admitted, what were your grades and extra activities like? And will they call you even if you get rejected?</p>
<p>I have a 4.0 (UW) in honors and AP classes. I have a few leadership positions and I am bilingual (working on a third language). I was ranked in the top 2-3% of class. I think what really helped me get in was the interest I showed. I interviewed, visited, emailed students and the pre med advisor.</p>
<p>I applied ED also and my guidance counselor sent in my senior grades 12/1. Does anyone know how long it will take for me to hear from HC?</p>
<p>acceptmecollege, did your guidance department send out your senior grades on 12/1, or did HC receive them on 12/1? If HC got it on 12/1, you should probably get your decision in about three weeks (according to what HCAdmissions said).</p>
<p>Although, it seems like the return rate for most decisions in this thread (two or three of them) has been about ten days. I’d say it’s somewhere between two and three weeks now, just as an approximation.</p>
<p>Holy Cross got my first quarter grades on 12/1, so I’m in the same boat as you. I hope you get a quick decision :)</p>
<p>Systematik thanks so much! My senior grades were sent out on 12/1 so hopefully we’ll know before Christmas! Good luck to you :)</p>
<p>Hey guys, if anyone’s interested there’s a chat tonight on Holy Cross’s website. The topic is ‘Life on the Hill’. I think it’ll be pretty interesting to hear about it 
I figured you guys might like this as you’re all early decision applicants.</p>
<p>Here’s the site. I believe you have to pre-register with your info. Just click see all chats now and it’ll bring up the prompt. The chat starts at 7 PM EST and ends at 10 PM EST. I hope to see some of you there! </p>

<p>My 1q grades were sent by my school on 11/17 - no word. I have received some good news from schools to which I applied early action.</p>
<p>what were your grades and EC’s like jmustang? How were your 1q grades?</p>
<p>3.95 (UW), 5th in class, 30 on ACT, tons of service, president of Model UN, 4th in state at French, political editor of school magazine, many good jobs including internships, etc, etc.
And I’m from a state that normally doesn’t draw many apps, so I’m sure that helped me out.</p>
<p>Honors math, 4 AP’s.</p>
<p>Well done!</p>
<p>If someone does not receive a phone call from admissions to notify them of acceptance before the letters are sent out, does that mean the applicant did not get in?</p>
<p>I just got my acceptance letter! :)</p>
<p>Nice! I can’t wait to meet everyone!</p>
<p>Random question: will HC make a facebook page or can anyone make it?</p>
<p>I would think Holy Cross would make one, but I could be mistaken. I’d wait until ED is complete, at least.</p>
<p>Hey everyone! </p>
<p>My application was complete on 11-3-11 and I got my acceptance phone call on 12-8-11</p>
<p>Hope this is helpful for someone!</p>
<p>For those of you who were accepted, how many days after your acceptance call did you receive your financial aid package?</p>
<p>Congratulations to those of you who have received your acceptance letters! We’re very excited to have you join the Crusader family!</p>
