Campus

<p>I'm interested in the campus size at Wesleyan. Also, how much is there to do on campus?What's nearby (Walking distance)? I'm sure I wont have a car so I'm looking for a college with an OK campus with a good amount of things to do. I've heard // read that the people there are generally really nice.</p>

<p>Lastly, I'm planning on visting Wesleyan during the summer. Is there any specific time I should go? Any events that I might catch?</p>

<p>If you visit during the fall, I can def. help you find somewhere to stay :-)</p>

<p>It's much more likely to have stuff going on come fall than there is in the summer, but there will be students still on campus.</p>

<p>The campus isn't HUGE but it's a nice size. There are so many different organizations on campus that are always putting on shows and stuff, the advantage of having such a big arts presence is that there are always movies to watch, student plays to go to, musicals, acapellas, the list goes on.</p>

<p>The town is nice, the main street is a short walk from campus and there are LOTS of ethnic and speciality restaurants around there. It's a really nice area.</p>

<p>Basically, there's almost no where you'd want to go on a regular basis that requires a car. Almost everyone stays on campus on the weekends, so there's always a ton going on. Wesleyan is really just a very busy campus in general... since people tend to multitask and do a lot :P Main Street of Middletown is a block past the edge of campus, and completely within walking distance... there isn't THAT much to do there, but there are some great (and affordable) restaurants and laser tag and a roller rink and such.</p>

<p>Be aware that if you're visiting Wesleyan in the summer, you won't see Wesleyan in its prime - it's the students that really bring the school to life. I highly recommend visiting in the summer, and if you like it decently, do an overnight in the fall to really see what it's like!</p>

<p>I see. I did plan on visiting during the summer and once more during the fall to catch a glimpse of student life there. The campus sounds great with a lot to do.</p>

<p>ridethecliche I'm going to PM you ;)</p>

<p>Go ahead :-)</p>

<p>My final college options were Wesleyan, Lafayette, Colgate, Penn State Honors, University of Rochester, and some others. So if have any questions on any of the schools let me know.</p>

<p>I actually can't put into words how excited I am for august 29th. I've already made friends (yeah even phone converstions) with kids i'm going to school with this fall. Some of them i've met, others I haven't. It's just wonderful.</p>
