Smith College Class of 2020 EDII Discussion

Hey! I applied EDII to Smith and am eagerly awaiting the news. Just wanted to use this forum to ask questions and support each other before we receive news soon.

Good luck! I was accepted EDI, hope to welcome you to the class of 2016!!

Thanks so much! I’m so nervous rn. Every time I think about Smith my heart starts racing bcz I’m that nervous to see the decision letter. Ugh! Quick question: do they send you an email when decisions are ready on Banner Web or are you expected to check yourself. Also, do you know what date they will reply back for EDII? I think it is around the 25th?

Yes, I think there was an email that went out a few days before saying the decision date and time to check Bannerweb. Decisions were expected at 6:00 eastern but were posted 2.5 hours earlier. Hang in there!

thx so much! you’re the best <3

I applied ED II! I’m so excited, but really nervous at the same time.

how did you guys do on the supplemental essay? I was stuck for so long that I sort of just winged it in the end. I’m not quite sure what to think of it. Not feeling very confident.

I thought the prompt was a bit hard. My supplemental was cute tho I think nothing extraordinary. Just a simple incident. However I interviewed which will be a bonus for sure.

Hi fellow future Smithies! I am an international student who also applied EDII to Smith! I cannot wait for the 25th to come already, but honestly I am so scared of it. Smith would be a dream come true for me! Idk how I feel about my supplemental tho…sounds like a cute one to me, hoping for the best now! :slight_smile:

totally understand where you r coming from. I’m so nervous! does anyone know if they will be sending us the fin. aid package with our decision later this month? or will they send it all the way in april?

@hellokitty679 I am pretty sure we get our fin aid package at the same time we get our decision, in 13 days. Let the countdown begin! :slight_smile:

out of curiosity, where r u guys from? I’m from northern CA, so a long ways from Smith! I haven’t even visited yet and have only been able to admire it via the internet. Has anyone visited? What did you think?

@hellokitty679 I’m from Arizona. I haven’t visited, but I have a friend who is currently attending and she says it’s very beautiful, especially during the fall! She also really likes Northampton. :slight_smile:

@hellokitty679 I am from Eastern Europe, so it’s a long way to Smith for me. I have a friend who studies there and based on what she says about the campus and the whole community I am soooo in love with it! After Hogwarts, it’s my 2nd dream school :slight_smile:

@plathandric wow! i thought i lived far from Smith :slight_smile: do you also plan on living in the US after college or going back to Europe? have you visited here before? I actually visited a few countries in Europe myself: Italy, France, Germany, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Spain, Greece, UK. I loved visiting all the places and the food was amazing!

@hellokitty679 wow, that’s a great european tour you have there! I was an exchange student to Utah last year so I def. wanna finish my education in the US and then come back home and make a change here. :slight_smile: what are your plans for after college? P.S: we are down to single digits countdown, finally!!!

@plathandric well i want to go pre-med, and so after college hopefully I will be admitted to a medical school back on the west coast (preferably in CA). And ya I realized that too! We are soooo close :slight_smile:

What are you guys’ stats, if you don’t mind me asking? I’m also considering applying to Smith, but I feel a bit inadequate.

I believe the deadline for this year has passed. But if you mean next year, don’t forget that Smith looks at more than just your stats. :slight_smile:

Hi! I am from Australia and have applied Early Decision and am completely in the same boat-except I wasn’t sure when we would find out exactly so now I am even more nervous because it is only 4 days away!!! I love Smith and am really hoping I have a good chance :slight_smile: Goodluck to everyone!
