**Skidmore Class of 2022! RD Official Thread**

Anyone in Southern California receive anything yet? We’re still waiting.

@jnkam24 Yes. I know two Upstate NY students who received rejection notices. It is not at all uncommon for Skidmore to reject US applicants.

Ok thanks. It just seemed like of the small sample size on this page, everyone who was not accepted was waitlisted, except for some international students who were rejected.

My D has not received anything here in Seattle yet someone else from Seattle already received their acceptance two days ago. Curious.

It turns out my son’s envelope was hidden under some things because it was a small one. Waitlisted. :confused:

Accepted
1340 SAT
3.4 GPA
Strong EC’s
Good essay
Did not visit or interview

Probably not gonna go, skidmore was one of my match school and I got admitted to a better school, so good luck for those of you that was waitlisted

Skidmore’acceptance rate for the class of 2021 was 25% and the acceptance rate for the class is 2020 was 28%

acceptance rate this year was ~26%

My son was waitlisted with 1390 SAT, 4.0 GPA, multiple AP courses, excellent EC and essay. He visited and had a great interview. I suspect it’s because we need significant financial aid. Their loss, he got into higher ranked schools.

Can anyone comment on the social scene? Skid more is my daughters first choice as a fine arts major and is considering applying ED1, but is hesitant because of mixed reviews in this area. If anyone can comment? Thank you!

@londonfab5 My D had a pretty quiet freshman year but since then has been very busy. She belongs to several clubs including Big Sisters and Zumba, attends nearly all the theatre/music productions, likes Open Mic night, and now that she is 21 (senior) heads downtown on the weekend nights. SPAC has great shows and Albany, just 30 minutes away, has some good concerts as well. The on-campus parties, from what I understand, take place in the apartments which house juniors and seniors.

Thank you @NEPatsGirl that’s what I’m afraid of… too quiet and I think she will be unhappy… I guess you will never know till your there:(

Anyone get in with ED2?
