This is the official discussion thread for Skidmore Class of 2030 RD applicants. Ask your questions and connect with fellow applicants.
It’s not too late to apply! It amazes me how many very selective schools are still accepting applications beyond their deadline. Skidmore RD deadline was supposedly several weeks ago, but I (not my kid) just received a text saying they have extended to Monday, Feb 2nd. We really liked the town and school when we visited but D26 decided to apply only to schools that offer BFA in visual arts (which Skidmore does not) so it’s not on our list. But just putting it out there for anyone who wants to throw in a last minute application with no supplemental essay required. 
Any predictions on when RD will release? I think last year was Saturday, March 15, so I’m guessing Saturday, March 14.
Yes, email came out today,saying March 14

D accepted. Their merit scholarship is subpar. Also, we didn’t like how they merged in the 5K federal and work-study to make it seem like it was a better offer. D got neary double the merit at Trinity CT. Great school, but I suspect we’ll pass.
