I'm considering applying regular decision to Skidmore and I've heard mixed things about its competitiveness. Does anyone know the current acceptance rate for regular decision applicants at Skidmore?
Skidmore College has an overall acceptance rate of around 23%. However, it's important to note that colleges often do not publicly share the specific acceptance rates for their early decision, early action, and regular decision processes separately. That being said, like other schools, the early decision acceptance rate at Skidmore tends to be higher than the overall rate, as it shows a commitment to the school, which might make the regular decision acceptance rate slightly lower. Ultimately, keep in mind that it's not just about acceptance rates, but your profile - your grades, test scores (if you choose to submit them), extracurriculars, essays, and teacher recommendations will all play a major part in your application. Make sure that all of these elements of your application are as strong as possible.
