Hey everyone. Just wanted to know if anyone else has heard back about their decisions from Simmons. It is my safety school, so I'm not dying to know or anything, but am curious if anyone else who has applied to the EA II deadline has gotten decisions back. I haven't really heard from Simmons since I applied, but just set up my Simmons application account tonight and my application status says, "Decision Mailed." Anyone seeing the same kind of thing?

I think my situation was unique - got a phone call on 1/11 from my admissions counselor, since I'm a Kotzen Scholarship finalist and that event is coming up soon. Hope you get some positive news soon!
I just received my acceptance letter in the mail today, so you should expect to receive your decision soon if you haven't already. I don't live far (I'm in NY) so I assume it was mailed this week.
I've also been invited to the multicultural overnight program, I'm going to wait a bit before applying... it's the same weekend UC decisions usually come out,
yikes, that diversity stat...I kinda assume women's colleges are more diverse but apparently not at Simmons lol. Mills should definitely be an option for you in that case!!
Yeah, I was really surprised! I actually live so close to Mills that it would be stupid for me to dorm, and if I did I could drive home for every meal and have plenty of time to get back to class! But it's a beautiful school, very dedicated to diversity and actually has it! It's going through someone financial troubles right now though so I'm going to wait and see how things go.
So, I went to search more about SImmon's diversity and I'm getting concerned, I found this comment on Niche, posted 24 days ago,
"We have a lot of race issues and a lot of religious issues on campus. Muslims and brown skinned people are not accepted as they should be."
Guess who's brown skinned and Muslim?? Me. I think I'm going to contact some of the clubs on campus to get a better idea of the issues this comment refers to.
and same here re: Mills! I live in SoCal but I loooove it. yeah I'm worried about the finances as well... I'd be nervous going without knowing for certain that I can finish my degree there. but I don't think I'll be able to afford it anyway =((
and re: Simmons - YIKES once again. ugh I mean there's obviously problems everywhere, but somewhere soooo white would definitely lend itself to that.
I'll be on campus for the February visit day. if you'd like, I can let you know what the student body REALLY looks/feels like beyond the pretty brochure diversity pics. and contacting club reps would be a great idea too!
