The admissions landscape is much more competitive now than when I was admitted. My application wouldn't be exceedingly competitive now with my high school marks (SAT 1340, GPA 3.5). I performed a lot of community service in high school, which I continued at Colgate. I was also active in athletics (although not at a collegiate-worthy level), and extracurricular activities such as musical performance.

Chances are better if you apply ED. Schedule an interview even though they're not required; you'll be glad you did. Colgate wants to know what you can contribute to the town-gown relations because the school is such an integral part of the community and how you would potentially change the dynamic of the campus. It's a great place!

I am getting my undergraduate degree in teaching (history) and will be getting my master's degree in teaching from Colgate, too...it's one of a handful of graduate programs offered here, which is amazing. It's a small program with a great reputation. The campus, facilities, and professors are phenomenal at Colgate and I am very satisfied.

Pretty tough and not worth the effort, unfortunately. The teachers are fine--you can learn here--but the student body is criminal.

Don't need any financial aid. Colgagte university likes people who can pay the hefty tuition bill in full.

I scored well on standardized tests and had a challenging high school course load. At the time when I applied it was one of the easier schools to get accepted to on my list.
