Isn't the calander nice?! They have a beautiful campus and love to show it off. When you've got it, flaunt it!

I've just been accepted. Colgate's financial aid is looking to be significantly more generous then Dartmouth's. Not sure what I'm going to do since i'm not sure i could justify paying like 6k more to attend Dartmouth.

AZgirl,

My stats aren't great at all. 1240, 3.9 u/w. I guess my background and some things in my ec provided the balance. My sister also got in, and (not to sound at all superior) she doesn't have nearly the same stats or much impressive ecs as i do, and as many of you guys do. I'm not sure whether they have special considerations for twins??

Colgate 13,
I did receive dates for visiting day. They're actually a two day period 12-13, and 19-20.

my stats are in the RD Roster, don't feel like rewriting them.

i like the personalized note at the bottom of the acceptance letter, it really does make u feel like they're genuinely interested in you.

congratulations on your acceptances everyone!
