<p>I got a likely!</p>

<p>I did interview with Wellesley, 2170 SAT, 5.0 weighted, 4.0 weighted, 32 ACT, NMF, economic activism, volunteered at an art gallery (100+hr), and several championships in debate.</p>

<p>What does this likely mean? Are there any statistics on how many get accepted? I am concerned because I have 4 b’s on my midterm, which they saw, but still.</p>

<p>I’m pretty four B’s won’t make them take away your acceptance. Don’t worry :)</p>

<p>I interviewed with Wellesley too, btw. :3</p>

<p>@kate244, Midterm grades will only affect your result if you suddenly go from As to Ds/Fs (basically). Keep in mind though that colleges DO rescind acceptances. Yet going from As to Bs second semester senior year is not the end of the world; just don’t start skipping school :)</p>

<p>Is everyone who got likely definitely enrolling (when we get official decisions)?</p>

<p>“just don’t start skipping school.”</p>

<p>uh, woops. o.o</p>

<p>@economiss I’m still waiting for more results, but getting a likely knocked off most of my list.</p>

<p>Same, now I’m just waiting to hear back from Swarthmore, Amherst, and Williams. Wellesley knocked Tufts and Kenyon off my list.</p>

<p>Tufts- if it came down to Tufts and Wellesley, I’d have suuuch a hard time choosing. </p>

<p>Wellesley knocked off Vassar, Barnard, Scripps, Wesleyan, and a few others.</p>

<p>I still need to hear back from the rest of my schools before I make a decision, but Wellesley’s one of my top choices.</p>

<p>Same here! If I get accepted into my other two top choices it will be a very hard decision. However, Wellesley is the only one of those that is all-undergrad (a definite pro in my book) and the only one where I have already felt the support of their network in my (relatively small) city. I really love the school and I can’t wait to visit. I’ve seen pictures, but I’ve heard it’s even more breathtaking in person.</p>

<p>I won a couple of awards since submitting, so I think I’ll let them know about that :)</p>

<p>@awkwardpenguin13 … Haha, I don’t remember the last time I went to a full week of school… </p>

<p>I heard Wellesley will give an all expenses paid visit to accepted students in April – I know they did last year! </p>

<p>So excited about Wellesley!</p>

<p>I got possible but an early write to Smith, which I’m thrilled about! So I’m not too disappointed.</p>

<p>@theforestagain Oh yeah, me too! I hear that means they’re considering you for a scholarship. Have you heard that?</p>

<p>@kate244 where did you hear that? That would be awesome!! Has anyone else gotten any official info on something like that?</p>

<p>I mean, about the Wellesley trip thing</p>

<p>My friend went last year! I don’t know if it is free for everyone, or just a few people.</p>

<p>Congrats to those of you who got the results you wanted! For the rest of you, I hope you get good news later.</p>

<p>I’m currently a senior at Wellesley, so please feel free to PM me with any questions you may have.</p>

<p>Does a likely pretty much mean you’re accepted? Is there any reason why I wouldn’t get an acceptance if I got a likely?</p>

<p>And congrats to everyone! Haha I just remembered to check today…turns out they’ve been up for more than a week and are being taken down today! Perfect timing, I guess!</p>

<p>I’ve never heard of someone not getting accepted after receiving a “likely”. It would probably only happen if your grades took a major dive or you got arrested or something.</p>

<p>Haha ok thanks : ) I’ll try not to engage in any felonious rampages in the meantime!</p>
