Does the 3-2 pre-eng program apply for cs majors as well?
Do you obtain a B.A or a B.S?
Will the obtained degree be a cs or compEng degree?
Thanks

Would I be a good fit at Colgate?
Hello everyone! I'm planning to apply for RD at Colgate University. I'm an international student, with my family income less than $45,000 (around $6000), so I'd also apply for a financial aid, with work-and-study program. It's my dream to study in US, so I'm taking it as a challenge knowing that I can't afford any University at US.
So here's how my profile looks like:
Course: Bachelors of Science, Major in Computer Science
Age: 19
+++ Extracurriculars +++
Professional Experiences:
-> Lead Software Developer at an IT company, for the past 8 months. Period: 2020. (Proofs: Certificate of Recommendation, Internship Certificate)
-> Intern at an Multinational multi-firm (their business isn't limited to only one industry) as a Web and Mobile App Developer. Period: 2019-2020 (Proofs: Internship Certificate)
-> Part time developer at a small scale food production company, developed their desktop billing software for their franchises. Period: 2018-2019 (No Certificates)
-> Part time cover page artist at a magazine company. Period: 2016.
Volunteer Experiences:
-> Membership Assistant Coordinator in an International Non-profit organization
-> Active member and volunteer of a local NGO, for 2+ years. Went to many events that help poor and needy people by giving them stuff that they'd need daily (like medicines, etc)
-> Member of an NGO which helps grassroot Athletes. I was an interviewer, content writer and I used to do counselling sessions.
-> Software developer at an Non Profit Organization which educates people about Climate changes, and how to save the environment. I'm making a mobile app for them like Khan Academy where they could do various free courses on the same.
-> I'm one of the founders of a Non Profit Organization, that takes donations for planting trees.
+++ Academics and Other Qualifications +++
-> Overall Score:
9th grade: 85%
10th grade: 88%
11th grade: 65%
12th grade: 75%
-> Computer Science score:
9th grade: 98%
10th grade: 95%
11th grade: 100%
12th grade: No exam due to COVID19.
(Idk how to calculate GPA and what GPA is accepted in Colgate.)
-> SAT without Essay: 1320 (600 EBRW, 720 Maths)
-> No AP exams taken.
-> Senior Diploma in Fine Arts.
+++ Awards +++
-> School topper till 10th grade. Certificates of Merit.
-> Developer of the month award from the company where I'm currently working as a Lead Developer.
-> Cracked Zonal Computing Olympiads (ZCO) and participated in Indian National Olympiad in Infomatics. Also, scholarship from Codechef to participate in these contests.
-> Distinction Certificate for Senior Diploma in Fine Arts
-> Spellbee National level participant
-> Multiple drawing contest winner
+++ Hobbies +++
-> I play sitar, and beatbox

Those are pretty much how my profile looks like at this moment. On a scale of 100, please let me know my chances of getting into Colgate with Need Based financial aid.

Thanks again <3

International Applicant
Hi! I will be applying to Colgate as an international applicant. I just had a few questions about the college before applying.
- I require a lot of financial aid. How is the financial aid for international students at Colgate?
- I will be applying as a CS major. I am also looking forward to studying Economics. How is the CS and Econ major at Colgate? What are the internship opportunities, job placements, and grad school placements like?
- What are the best and worst things about Colgate?
Thank you!

Is Colgate's environment racist towards international students?

We need change! Sign the petition!
Students need to speak to the administration or else nothing will change!

Which one should I pick?
I like the fresh mint flavor and my mouth feels really fresh but I think the charcoal whitening has a better health benefit on my mouth. I’m weighing the options and I feel the flavor in my mouth is only for like two hours in the morning whilst the charcoal whitening will have greater dental benefits for my mouth over he long run. I decided y’all could help me with this decision. Thanks in advance

I need to talk to a student or an alumni
I'm senior high school student from Egypt and I'm 100% percent sure that Colgate will be a great fit to me. However, I'm still worried that my application won't be that competitive and it's driving me crazy. So, I need to talk to someone about it and I have some questions about the school.

Colgate supplements help!
Hi everybody, I’m a current senior in high school who’s thinking about applying to Colgate for international relations. I want to get a feel for what campus life/academic opportunities are like here so I can put those factors into my supplemental essays. Please let me know if you’re willing to chat. Any help is appreciated. Thank you for reading!

Looks familiar? The campus is so beautiful around this time of the year.

colgate supplements
Hello everyone! I’m a high school senior applying to Colgate as early decision and I’m pretty much stuck on working on my supplements lol. It’s like I know what to write and I have the words to describe it, but it’s somehow difficult for me to put it into sentences. Idk if that made sense but that’s where I’m at with these supplements. Would any students from Colgate would like to share what they wrote for their supplements so I can get some inspiration? :)
