Help, Chances?

Hello to anyone who cares,

I applied ED to Colgate, and am a little fidgety.
This wait is KILLER!

Anywho.. i was wondering what people who read these boards thought of my odds at getting accepted.

GPA: 3.7
SAT: 1370
My extracurriculars are average.. With most standout thing being V Lacrosse for three years..
Im from Florida with Hispanic background

BUT BUT BUT! i did go for a college visit and interview earlier this school year.
That couldn't have gone better; on top of falling in love with the school, i also made a great impression on the woman i spoke with. The Interview lasted a surprising sixty minutes. Anyways, my essays are pretty good (at least my supplemental one is)

and thats about it, any input is greatly appreciated

Sorry to burst your bubble but interviews don't count for anything but remembering your face when she reads that application.

You have a good shot there... hang on there!! Less than a week!

No idea.... sorry! They might call you because you're so far away and your mail will come to you later than the US applicants? Some schools do that... but in any rate, you'll know by Christmas!

i've had very bad experiences with U.S. Postal mail.....
(e.g. -- A letter from Colgate dated 21st November arrived on 8th december)

So I think i'll get it cleared up in the Colgate Live Chat.
