Yay! I got in too! I'm so excited since Bowdoin is also one of my top schools.

How did you guys get the application ? If I don't get the application, does it mean my chance of getting in is really low ?

To nns91:
To quote from the acceptance email: "Naturally, this trip does not guarantee admission to the college, but over the past few years many talented students have decided to apply to Bowdoin following their Invitational experience." The invitational is open to "talented students from around the country who can contribute to Bowdoin College’s diversity."
The application is found at <http://www.bowdoin.edu/admissions/forms/invitational/index.shtml>. However, it is now closed. I heard about it through an email from Bowdoin and from my college counselor.

Hear hear!!
It'll be interesting to experience the weather there, coming from warm/hot places

p.s. Does anybody know when we're leaving on Thursday? Or rather, what time we will be arriving at Bowdoin? The e-mail didn't say anything about that. Any thoughts?

I guess that we won't know until we get our itineraries. The email said that we would get those one week before the trip. I'm assuming we will depart on Wednesday or Thursday, most likely Thursday.

Are you guys packing to wear multiple layers? The lows around this time last year were in the high 20s-low 30s.
