Hi guys, international student here. Could someone please rate my chances for lafayette? I’m super anxious about my decision.
Stats: 1350 SAT score 720 English 630 math
3.8 GPA (at least I think so, not sure how A level grades stack up to GPAs)
Strong reccomendations and ECs
President of school debates team, participated in and won at debates and Model UNs. Drama kid. Did an unpaid internship where I taught underprivileged kids for a month in the summer. Lots of general community work.
I spoke to someone in the office yesterday, and they told me and based off their Instagram it looks like they are mailing this Friday the 22nd!! They said students in NJ/PA might hear as early as Saturday!! Also no email with decisions
They’re Instagram is lafcoladmissions
@Marclip Thanks for the update - mailing out on the 22nd would be great. Nervous because I RD and Lafayette filled 55% of Class of 22 with ED. Not many spots left Good luck!!
fyi in past years, the letters were batched. The highest rated acceptances went out the first day, then the next wave of RD acceptances the next day, then the waitlists the next day, then the nonacceptances the next day. Don’t know if that pattern will reoccur this year obviously, but be aware of that as a possibility based on past behavior. You can see it in the past years’ RD threads too if you watch the dates.
@Marclip When you say it showed on Instagram - do you mean the photo of them mailing the acceptance letters?
hope some decisions are mailed today! Lafayette is the last college I’m waiting to hear from & it’s high on my list as of now
it’s official! letters have been mailed! good luck everyone
Hoping they are sent speedy delivery out to California!
@SPA2100 did they announce it’s been mailed out.
@HSinLI yes, they did! on Twitter and Instagram!
Thanks
Do you know when the decisions will be emailed to international students? I checked and I haven’t received any updates.
as said on instagram, decisions will be released on the portal by the middle of next week, good luck everyone!
@ruu1234 for internationals…they will put on portal on tuesday or wednesday
We have a USPS item coming from Trenton, NJ so it must be from Lafayette.
@MAandMEmom I have informed delivery on USPS but it only says that there is a mail piece for which they do not have an image of. How did you see the item?
@rochellka I’m signed up for texts. Informed Delivery will not show pictures for large items, and if we t is an acceptance it’s large based on the post of the picture of the envelopes Instagram. I think you can log in to USPS and add texts.
It’s under notification settings in Informed Delivery. You can opt in to texts.
@MAandMEmom is it delivery for today? What state are you in?
We’re in CA. We’ll probably find out when the international kids find out
