Hi guys! Just thought I’d create this thread for anyone applying to Bard this year. Just in case we have any queries, worries or simply want to discuss things about Bard and the process of getting there.
DD applied IDP EA this past Saturday & received her acceptance last night. So excited!
Congratulations Kat2013! It’s a special place. As I’m sure she got a glimpse of at IDP.
@Kat2013 Congrats!! May I ask how she was notified? (Snail Mail or email?)
Thank you. First she received an email letting her know to check the Portal as there had been a change to her application status, & then about a week later she received a letter in the mail.
Did any of you submit photographs in your portfolio to Bard? If so, did you send the photographs individually or in a document, ect. ?
@miamazing - don’t know if you meant that question for me, but DD is not an artist, she is a science major.
@miamazing I can’t give you a definitive answer, but I do know that you can go back in to your portfolio and edit; I’d try uploading each individually at first (to preserve quality) and if that does not work I’d upload all the pictures on a word doc. Best of luck! I’m applying EA too and I’m soo nervous.
Do we have a decision date yet?
Does anyone know when decisions were released last year?
Looks like letters were snail-mailed 12/19/14.
Admission decisions will be posted Friday, 12/18 at 8pm.
@emmald how do you know?
@futureclass2098 I called the admissions office yesterday and they told me the same thing. Be checking your portals on the 18th.

@ilycashgrier Early decisions will be released by end of this week. Students receive an email to check their applicant portal for updates.
I’m so anxious! It’s so weird knowing that in less than 24 hours I could potentially know where I’m going to college…
Does anyone know if merit scholarship information would be out today as well?
Hey, just got my acceptance in the mail. :)))))))))))
Thick or thin envelope? My D has a letter from Bard as well, but I probably shouldn’t open it!
Hey I got in!
