any veterans applying
Genuinely a bit worried about the whole thing. Everyone on here seems like super saiyan whiz-kids, and Iām only an average saiyan whiz-kid, so you can see the conundrum
Iām pretty average I feel like so I definitely feel the same Iām starting to rethink all my reach schools lol
Maybe weāre just dunning-krugering hard, I hope so at least! Sending good vibes for acceptancesā
You too! Good luck!
Hey everyone - great to meet you! Applied to Bowdoin RD as a Maine student, but two people from my school already got admitted ED so hopes are not too high! In case you didnāt know, unlike so many other highly selective schools, Bowdoinās app pool went DOWN this year: Total applications down slightly for Class of 2025 ā The Bowdoin Orient.
Hope is an inflated currency babeeey-- overrated, who needs it
Hahah love it
Friday will either be cheers or tears - good luck everyone
Yes, Friday at 7:00! Same as Swarthmore.
Got good news from Bates and Colby, hope Bowdoin continues the Maine school trend (though 2 people from my school got in ED already so chances are looking slim)!
Iām really nervous. Bowdoin is the first decision that Iām really hoping to be good news. I got waitlisted at Bates so hopefully I can snag at least one of the Maine Three :((
Donāt worry Iām sure it will go well. Iām rooting for you!
Thatās great news about Bates and Colby. Even if you donāt get in to Bowdoin, you have some great options!
Good luck to you too my DD is so nervous!
May I ask when you were notified about Colby? It was my understanding they were not released yet.
They probably received a likely letter.
Yes definitely! Bowdoin is my top choice of the 3 (or maybe tied with Colby), so fingers crossed!
Got the presidential scholar email (which is kind of Colbyās likely letter, though less definitive)!
Best of luck! Rooting for you too!
