Admissions Decisions?
Does anyone know when Bates will be posting Admission Decisions and sending out letters? Also, is anyone aware of whether or not they post them on our accounts?


I'm freaking out...

I got a call saying they were very interested in me and that I was accepted, and they are "building a case" for me and wanted to know if I was really serious about attending. Whatever that means...

D received a letter yesterday from a professor involved in admissions. The professor commented on D's application and stated that he/she is hoping D will receive a formal offer. Then the majority of the letter was an invitation to attend Bates' Mt David Undergraduate Research Summit. We are taking this as a positive sign.

smoda61-
yea it seems to be the bates' form of likely letters, in a sense
i got the same exact letter from a professor from the English dep.
It probably means we will get in...i mean they prompt us to RSVP for the special "summit" program and we go to the "admissions office where someone will greet you." sounds definitely positive to me

D's was also from an English professor and I agree with your other comments.

This is going to be a very long month.

At the moment, my parent agree to spend more money on my undergraduate years, so I tend to contact the admission officer to let them know about that. Will it increase my chance?
