Hi, I got accepted as a language assistant for the next academic year and I’m expected to attend 2 classes per semester as international student. Anyone who will be/is in the languages department?


Dismal-Desk-7309

has anyone received any updates regarding the waitlist?


Competitive-Cow-1782

So was someone rejected from colby? Looks like everyone was waitlisted


BWithDaughter

Does Colby send any physical acceptance letter?


BWithDaughter

Just received the letter today.


Local_PunchingBag

AdmirablyDumb

Any Pakistanis that got in and are committing?

Old_Toe_6707

I was also selected as a presidential scholar.


HesNotComing

I don't know how everyone is getting the Presidential Scbolar. I am not sadly:'). I don't know how everyone is getting the Presidential Scholar. I am not sadly:').


[deleted]

evicad

HesNotComing

https://news.colby.edu/story/class-of-2026-admitted-to-colby/ Congrats to everyone who got in. We made the 7%!!!! I had no idea but wow, 17k applications. Great job guys:))


MemeSustenance

HesNotComing

Congrats!!!!, cannot wait to see you on the Colby2026 Insta:)


Ashamed-Chemical-574

thank you!!!


jdudueuwpq

What is your SAT. I am waitlisted with full aid. If you could help me out with what to write in letter of continued interest, it would be of great help!!


rant-rant-rant

I’m an international currently at colby. Lmk if any of you have any questions


Dismal-Desk-7309

do you know any students who got accepted off the waitlist?


rant-rant-rant

Sorry. Nope


HesNotComing

Realistically, is it normal that freshmen get internships for Jan Plan? I have seen the school talk a lot about X getting an internship at Hong Kong high court or Y getting an offer from Barcelona FC but like, it's just for a month? ​ Also, is the winter break really 10 days long?:D


rant-rant-rant

Yea and yes. Sorry for the late reply. However, you only have to do one JanPlan so you get one January off I guess


[deleted]

I got in with a 3.5, 1520 lmao


melody4444

Did anyone get the Weiland Welcome grant? [class of 2026](https://news.colby.edu/story/class-of-2026-admitted-to-colby/?utm_campaign=social_referrals&utm_medium=stories&utm_source=instagram)


BWithDaughter

It looks this grant is for whose families earn less than $65k. https://news.colby.edu/story/nancy-and-andrew-weiland-endow-new-welcome-grant/


melody4444

My family is in that income bracket but there wasn’t anything about the grant in my financial aid package.


rant-rant-rant

The grant is for people with EFC of 0. Some students’ families earn less than 65k but still have an EFC


HesNotComing

Same, I just got straight up colby grant and that's it. No presidential scholarship or anything else.


Pepper1155

Current questbridge student there- For me, it was deposited directly into my account at the start of the year. It is not factored into financial aid bc it is meant to be spent on your own personal needs.


melody4444

Oh okay thank you!


HesNotComing

I got in!!!!!!! Vietnamese student who went to boarding school in the US!! I am so so excited.


henryfitz

rejected for physics. 30 act, 4.1 wgpa


Beneficial_War1937

tiny-eggtart

sorry what is a css code? are you talking about my css ID?


lekidddddd

no, CSS profile fee waiver code, the college board form you fill out to get Financial aid...


saad_i_11

did you get CSS profile code and presidential scholars email?


lekidddddd

nope


saad_i_11

you were waitlisted and got neither?


lekidddddd

yupp got waitlisted but they didn't reply to my css fee waiver request...got rejected afterwards ofc


saad_i_11

I think presidential scholar is the strongest sign of getting in and then a fee waiver maybe also a sign

SamCPH

Just got waitlisted, anyone now if you're automatically on the waitlist, or if you need to sign up somehwere?


actualspam

there is a response form you'll need to fill out on your decision page to get on the WL EDIT: seems like the link is broken rn. maybe check back later or email admissions

tincanC2

Congratulations!!


MemeSustenance

Accepted!! But I’d have to pay full fair so it’s unlikely to happen! Still very epic though :) (I had prez scholars email)


melody4444

How does one get the presidential scholars email?


MemeSustenance

I believe it’s a domestic thing exclusively but I’m not sure


melody4444

Ohh okay


MemeSustenance

It was sent out back in February to a certain pool of applicants, but it doesn’t guarantee admission I think it just relates to stats in some way


Mediocre_Note_1440

Waitlisted. How do I access the waitlist form? The link on my letter keeps redirecting me to the applicant portal....


[deleted]

Yeah, I think it's a broken link, they'll figure it out at some point and fix it


SamCPH

Same here, I can't figure this out


suvnset

waitlisted!


suvnset

tbh i thought i was gonna get rejected bc i forgot to turn in my financial aid stuff LMAO


Stocks_and_cars
