<p>Are you an international applicant? I didn’t think the notifications were gonna come for another week!?</p>
<p>I live in the Virgin Islands. Not sure if they consider that international or not. I was surprised to hear back so early as well!! Don’t think I’ll be attending though as the FinAid was not good at all…</p>

<p>I got accepted by email today. I’m not international. They will send the packet in the mail later. I got pretty good financial aid too, about 31,000.</p>
<p>I was accepted today as well by email. Decision letters will be mailed out on the 25th.</p>
<p>I got accepted by email today too!</p>
<p>Can everyone please post their stats and majors please?</p>
<p>I got accepted yesterday.</p>
<p>This is confusing because they said that they’re mailing letters the “good old fashioned way”. I thought that implied that they weren’t emailing. What’s the dealio?</p>
<p>On last year’s threads, only students who were invited to the multi-cultural day or won big scholarships were e-mailed (and maybe international students – not sure). Everyone else had to wait for the old-fashioned letters.</p>
<p>I was accepted yesterday through email.</p>
<p>Here is what it said:</p>
<p>"Dear Prospective Member of the Class of 2015,</p>
<p>Congratulations from Skidmore College! Although you will not be receiving your official acceptance packet until later this month, you are going to be receiving good news from Skidmore. I am writing to you now to invite you to our on-campus program, The Discovery Tour, for accepted multicultural students. We hope this early notification will enable you to begin making plans to join us on campus.</p>
<p>[Stuff about the tour]</p>
<p>Your official acceptance packet will be mailed to you on March 25th. If you have applied for financial aid you will receive an email in the next few days with the outcome of your financial aid application.</p>
<p>[More stuff about the tour]</p>
<p>Once again, congratulations, and we look forward to seeing you on campus for the 2011 Discovery Tour!"</p>
<p>So decisions will be sent out on the 25th. Also if it isn’t clear from the email, I am a URM</p>
<p>Thanks for the info explosion – now I can tell my daughter to quit worrying until next week!</p>
<p>They gave me my aid amount through email the next day, too. Did anyone else get that?</p>
<p>So I am a bit confused. Does this mean that the rest of minority/multicultural students did not get into Skidmore? For example, I am hispanic and I did not get an e-mail. Anyone know if this means I did not get in? I really need to know because if I didn’t, I can quickly get 1st priority housing at my 2nd college choice… Please let me know! Thanks in advance… :)</p>
<p>@thirdnerd i got my aid amount like 4 hours after i got the email.</p>
<p>@collegebound not really sure what to tell you…</p>
<p>I am an international and I haven’t heard anything :'(</p>
<p>^^+1</p>
<p>Super nervous/excited.</p>
<p>Can those who got accepted with good FinAid post their stats please?</p>
<p>^^indeed…someone please post your stats</p>
<p>Um are international applicants considered “multicultural”? If we are, then we’re screwed :((((</p>
<p>Just got a Skidmore viewbook today. I thought they included the admission letter inside. 
But just the brochure. Perhaps it took a month to reach my hometown in Vietnam.
Waiting in vain for the admission email! Any international student got the decision??</p>
