@books217 Cool. Can’t wait! I’m from MA as well.
So we should all hopefully hear by no later than wednesday!! @andover2016 @idislikethesats
Awesome! Good luck to you two is Skidmore your first choice? @andover2016 @books217
Personally it is not, but it is one of my last ones to hear from! You? @idislikethesats
Same here! @books217
I am also a rejected international student. I had an excellent interview. I have stellar grades (UWGPA:4.0, WGPA:4.6), SAT 2070 (CR+M 1430), SAT 2 ( Ph 800 CH 800 M2 800). Had good recos. Nice essay. High financial need though. Guess its mostly about money with these American LACs and small colleges for us internationals. I have become very disappointed ( in fact indignant) of what thinking goes behind the scenes. Guess US is not the place for me after all/

Did everyone see this? Good luck to everyone waiting!
@books217 @idislikethesats Vassar was my 1st choice, but I was rejected ED2. Skidmore and Bates are my top choices now, I would be thrilled to go to either.
@ccuser123456789 Guess US is not the place for my kid too. 7 rejects in less than 36 hrs and that is such a terrible feeling. Just can not concentrate on anything else.Losing (in fact lost) all hopes now. Good luck to all you kids. Go and rock the world.
Im an international nd still havnt heard back. Any idea whether I would be receiving the decision through mail or email? Skidmore was supposed to be my safety but Im kinda counting on it after all the rejections.
I hav 34 act and 3.96 uwgpa rejected and waitlisted by all lacs bcs i asked for a lot of aid
@GAudi483 I’m an international student and I heard back ages ago even before the real acceptance email that came out this morning, may I ask where you are applying from?
I received an a decision today in the mail (my mail came early haha) so keep a look out in the next couple of days! @andover2016 @idislikethesats
@amica123 i hav a korean citizenship but live in the pacifics region. Do u think that has anything to do with the delay in the decision notification or if it means anything in particular?
I applied as a studio art major and my region may be considered US territory by some. My email from skidmore last december mentioned that they will be mailing the decisions; i think it may take a while for it to be shipped to my place.
@books217 thanks, my mail usually comes in the afternoon, so I’ll keep a look out. Are you more Western or Eastern MA?
@andover2016 Hey I’m from Massachusetts too! Just got acceptance package today! So happy Skidmore is one of my tops. Western MA here.
@TheWheel Congrats!!! I’m Eastern MA, so I might not hear until Monday. My mail hasn’t come yet today, so I can still hope! I just got rejected from Bates and Colby so I need some good news!
Tough schools. Good luck! I got waitlisted from Williams and Carleton.
Congratulations on Skidmore! Did the acceptance package mention accepted student visit days? Keeping my fingers crossed there’s good news on the way…
Yeah, it mentioned 3 accepted candidate days, no overnights.
