This is the official discussion thread for Kenyon Class of 2028 RD applicants. Ask your questions and connect with fellow applicants.
am i seeing things or is there no withdraw button? is that a thing some schools do?
When can i expect a decision if I applied in September?
Unfortunately, I don’t think Kenyon has a rolling admission of any kind. if you applied regular decision, the decision date is the same for everyone regardless of when you applied. We are all waiting until late March!
did anyone else get an email encouraging them to apply to KEEP?
My son just told me that he did
Any guesses at the day of decisions for RD?
Based on the last few years I’m looking at March 22 - but they haven’t said anything and there have been no changes to the portal that I can see. How about you?
Waitlisted second one today ugh
Second one today for me too… I feel your pain.
DS waitlisted. Not surprised…didn’t visit (did interview), needs lots of aid.
Not even super sad or anything! Just super annoyed & kinda disappointed ! I’m still waiting on a lot of schools I love and I’ve gotten into some that I ADORE so I’m grateful no matter what.
Are they need-aware? This could’ve affected me too.
definitely need-aware, and they have a reputation for being very need-aware compared to a lot of peer institutions.
Daughter was waitlisted and just got waitlisted at American University. We definitely need a lot of financial aid. My daughter really liked Kenyon but we are waiting on many other schools still.
waitlisted too
C24 admitted (after waitlist at American).
Admitted with merit aid (good stats and coach interested). Very excited and grateful and wishing everyone on the WL the best!
