Skidmore Class of 2019 RD Discussion and Results

@nrnr29‌ I’m in the same boat as you
except I’m in NYC so I’m more worried :confused:

@Anduar3‌ Hey, good luck to you! :frowning: hope we both make it and are part of the coming year’s class!

Any international student here? I haven’t heard anything from Skidmore yet…

@gettinonmynerve Me neither.

Oh… fingers still crossed then and good luck! :slight_smile:

@gettinonmynerve‌ I (also international) didn’t hear anything too, although my hopes are diminishing, as I believe that we are URMs, and URMs are notified earlier :frowning:

@vlad7777‌ oh no please don’t say that! lets not give up the hope… not just yet I am very nervous too…

Hopefully we will know tomorrow! Good luck to everyone. ;;

@dancingwriter @vlad7777 true thing. But even some non-URM have not yet been notified so no big worry. Good luck guys/gals! :slight_smile:

Do people know if they email or snail mail decisions? I thought they came via snail mail, but since the early group heard by email I’m hoping they might send everyone decisions that way.

when are internationals receiving their emails? does anyone know?

International here. Hopefully we’ll be receiving email notifications today?

Good luck to all!

@Xenonex how do you know its today

As an active Skidmore alum whose daughter is applying, I can’t tell you about email notifications for international students. For everyone else, however, it’s snail mail all the way. They pride themselves on being traditional (luddites).

I wonder if the mail would be arriving today or just be mailed on today. I know people posted their results on the 24th last year…so anxious!

Ugh skidmore why must you mail decisions, it’s not cute lol.

It’s on the skid website. Decisions went to the post office today. Non-US addresses will be notified via email.

@ZZSPOP‌ - Thanks. I saw that after I posted. I had been holding out hope that they’d email too. I’m in New York City, so hopefully the letter will come tomorrow, but my mail doesn’t come until 7-8 PM. Last night it didn’t get here till nearly 10 PM! I don’t know why any school doesn’t use email/portal at this point. It seems much kinder to let everyone know simultaneously.

@‌lulu2015 and @zzspop I actually think it is much kinder of Skidmore to mail decisions. They even handwrite a little note on acceptance letters. It saves a lot of time as one does not access the portal regularly (or even obsessively :)) I am also an alum whose son has applied.

Mail came for today (Long Island area). Nothing was in the mail, hopefully tomorrow we will hear.
