<p>Does anyone know when admissions decisions letters are mailed from Skidmore? I tried to website, but couldn't find an answer, other than the generic "before April 1st." Anyone know anything more specific?</p>
<p>I got a call from the chair of the music department a couple of weeks ago...informing me that I'm one of the music scholarship finalist and that I have also been admitted to Skidmore! But no official letter from the admin yet.</p>
<p>Congratulations May! Do you sing, or What instrument do you play?<br>
What involvement do you have in music now?</p>
<p>My daughter's guidance counselor received a phonecall from Skidmore Admissions a couple of weeks ago asking for her midterm grades. Good sign or meaningless??? Thanks!</p>
<p>That was what happened before I got a call from the chair...so hopefully that's good sign for your daughter.</p>
<p>No phone calls yet - she wants to major in education, but we'll see. Thank you so much for your post.</p>
<p>They're sending decisions out on March 23rd. But they send scholarship info etc out early. </p>
<p>Just got my letter today saying "my application has been overwhelmingly approved" and that I received the Porter Presidential Scholarship for Mathematics. :D</p>
<p>Congratulations AMcGuire13 on the Porter!!
Tell us a little about yourself. Where else are you looking?
Does Skidmore look good to you?</p>
<p>I also applied to Saint Anselm (accepted), U Rochester (accepted), Cornell (?), Dartmouth (?), Brown (?), and Yale (?).
I go to a public HS in NH, top decile (we don't rank).
Majoring in Mathematics & Chemistry.
Wrote my essay on jumping off bridges :)</p>
<p>I haven't visited Skidmore yet, but I hope to soon now that I've been accepted... they have an amazing equestrian (riding) team which was one of my requirements! I'm guessing my choice will come down to Skidmore and Cornell, not sure I'll get in to any of others, but regardless, Skidmore is definitely my current top pick.</p>
<p>Good to hear that you survived those jumps!</p>
<p>Saratoga = horses! (plus a lot of other great things)</p>
<p>Good luck with your decisions, and congratulations on the accepts!</p>
<p>Congrats AMcGuire13! I am going end of March for the music scholarship finals...will get a chance to visit the campus then. Read about its big dorm rooms...and yeah, its riding team.</p>
<p>hey guys, current skidmore freshman here...no idea about letters, just wanted to wish you all good luck and i'm here to try and answer any questions you might have.</p>
<p>p.s. yes, the rooms are generously big :)</p>
<p>Thanks emizzly! I bought this book called 'Skidmore College off the record' by College *******, and some not very good review there. The drug scene thing...hope it's not as bad as they made it out to be. And diversity was rated D minus. What do you think of the professors?</p>
<p>I know what series of books you're referring to, May. They're very interesting--I've read them regarding several different colleges--but don't take what they say very much to heart. Every college I read about sounded pretty bad if you believed the books.</p>
<p>I guess u are right. Kind of disheartened when I read those jaded reviews...</p>
<p>i got my acceptance letter in the mail today, so im sure theyll be coming in soon</p>
<p>Where are you at Nisky? Near Saratoga? I'm in Western Mass, and am hoping for a response probably on Monday!</p>
<p>yeah, i'm about 20 minutes from saratoga, so im sure i got my letter earlier than most. good luck!</p>
<p>Hi Nisky ... what did Skid send in the admit package and what were your stats ? ...</p>
<p>accepted today! live in CT</p>
