Good plan
@iambibliophile I’m just seeing your question. Yes, they will send it around 4-5PM their time (EST). So if that’s 1am for you then that’s when you’ll get your decision. This is because they’ll send it around when their office closes for the day, so as to rest that day and not have to face the many calls that may come in.
wow! thats quite reasonable i guess. cant judge them. btw how do u know exact time?
That’s the usual time they’ve sent it in the past as well as for other colleges.
oh okay. anyway thank you for being this supportive
No problem!
Omg, I’m so nervous. I’m just literally shaking. Also, btw 1 friend of mine applied as an ED 1 and got rejection letter at 8th of December even though accepted ppl got them on 15-16th. What can this mean? Like, if you are rejected do they tell you earlier?
@atonitaku47 I’ve never heard of rejection letters released first, because some people still got rejected/accepted around December 15th. It depends on a lot of things: misinformation (by you guys assuming no one else got an acceptance on that 8th or something), and maybe the school’s mode of communication for that batch.
Hey, @munit123 Do you know if Skidmore’s acceptance letters (email) can arrive later than Feb 15? I mean, If I don’t get my letter today, should I wait for several days more or should I immediately contact my counselor? Thanks.
Because friend of mine applied to Lafayette as an ED I and he got his acceptance letter at 17th December instead of 15th.
or maybe he got rejected for a reason that was very dominant that made everything else (other application components) invalid. so they knew that they will not be able to offer admission to him beforehand. I am pretty sure if rejections were heard earlier it would not very professional of them. I dont know but I would like to believe in your hypothesis 
In the rejection letter, they wrote that he’s rejected because they can’t give him enough of financial aid.
(at least that’s what he told me)
oh that happened to me too! a university that i have applied RD pre-rejected me for same reason. they even told me that they didnt look at my SATs ECs nothing.
I don’t believe what your friend said. It is highly unlikely and unheard of that the admissions office would disclose why you were denied of admission. Some guys that were rejected last year just said they were rejected, and that they FEEL that it’s because they asked for much aid and they didn’t have enough funds. Your friend is probably just inferring. And he probably didn’t give you the letter to see for yourself.
@munit123 what u say makes sense to me since skidmore says that they will meet 100% need when admission is offered. everybody knows how generous they are. I am here needing like a huge financial aid and i trusted skidmore for that. but still this kinda things happen I can show you my letter from the university.
Yeah I’m just saying that they can never tell you the reason why they denied you of admission. It’s just not ethical or their tradition.
well they did but the reason was that they wont be able to fund me. not smt i can help so it makes it not mean. ofc admission officers cant tell you that u were academically weak for them or smt like that.
oh and that university told me that they could consider my application if i could show a bank statement. (with 58k inside it)
Oh I understand you. Well, let’s see what happens tonight.
The result is out guys, and I got denied 
which is pretty understandable. I think I ask for too much. Anyway congrats to u if u are admitted
What??!
