<p>so on the wes website it says that they dont really defer for good reason and not very often. does anyone know if any numbers have been released or anything like that indicating the percentage of kids that were deferred that were ultimately offered admission?</p>
<p>I’d like to know as well. I hear they don’t release that information, I’ve been looking. The acceptance rate is estimated to be about 40% (or less this year) for ED, but I’m wondering how much of the other 60% is waitlisted.
I do personally know 3 people who got in after being deferred EDI, so there’s my glimmer of hope, haha.</p>
<p>Woops, I meant deferred, not waitlisted.</p>
<p>i was deferred to regular…what does that mean?
i literally cried all day yesterday and today. ■■■. im sure it’ll all turn out for the best.</p>
<p>does anyone know if its possible for someone that was deferred to ed2 to be deferred again to regular? i thought i had read somewhere that ed2 they either accept, reject or waitlist you.</p>
<p>yes, i’d like to know that too. also, anyone know if the acceptance rate for ED2 is generally higher or lower than ED1?</p>
<p>rte11-</p>
<p>I didn’t apply ED1, but I just got deferred from ED2, so I guess it’s possible. I didn’t think it was either, though.</p>
<p>i called wesleyan and asked how many kids were deferred and she just said a handful (or was it a fair amount?).
also, its not that wesleyan doesn’t defer in ED2, its that kids who were deferred to ED2 from ED1 are just given a decision. like you can’t be deferred twice.</p>
<p>I know this is going to sound condescending, but you’ll be fine no matter where you end up.</p>
<p>Wesleyan was not my first choice. If you look back at my old posts, Uchicago held that ‘honor’. They deffered me EA, then waitlisted me, and finally told me to get lost. I’m all the better for it. </p>
<p>No matter where you go, opportunities exist, you just have to seek them out and make the most of them.</p>
<p>Good luck :)</p>
<p>ridethecliche - you’ve been a terrific resource to this forum over the years. Good luck to you, and don’t be a stranger!</p>
<p>Haha, thanks. I’ll hope that luck comes with me when I go to Boston to interview for a job on friday.</p>
