<p>When do we get our letters? Upsidedown and ctgirl CONGRATULATIONS! Ace, possible is MUCH much better than a unlikely so keep your head up :)</p>

<p>My daughter got a 'likely' letter today. We are smiling. Good luck to all of you who are still waiting to receive your letter!</p>

<p>NYsenior,
I tried to PM you my stats like you asked, but it said your inbox was full and you could no longer receive messages. Clear out a few messages, let me know, and I'll try again. Thanks!</p>

<p>LIKELY! Wow, I am so excited and RELIEVED. It feels awesome to be <em>almost</em> accepted to my favorite school! :-) New England, here I come!</p>

<p>For possibles and unlikelies, keep your heads up! Your accomplishments are really impressive, and you have worked so hard. You will definitely get some awesome college offers in April!</p>

<p>Unlikely. This is pretty depressing... I guess Barnard, Smith, Pomona, Haverford, Williams, Yale, and Columbia are out now too. Congratulations though to likelies and possibles : )</p>

<p>I think I seriously screamed for about 5 minutes straight. I can barely sit still at this point.</p>

<p>I got a likely!!! I am so happy! I was literally shaking when I saw the letter from Wellesley.</p>

<p>for those who got "likely" letters from Wellesley, congrats!!!
Would you guys mind sharing your stats w/ the rest of us?

<p>I completely and utterly disagree that Wellesley is better academically than Smith or Barnard. All three schools offer stellar experiences, both social and academic, and are very similar in admissions selectivity (usually if a person applies to one, they apply to them all). Some departments at Wellesley may be "stronger" than similar departments at the other colleges, but one could also say that some departments at Smith are "stronger" than those at Wellesley. The main difference is in terms of location - Smith is located in quirky and eccentric (and cool!) Northampton, Barnard in New York City, and Wellesley in an upscale Boston suburb. Many people prefer the location of one over the other. Wellesley may be better in the field you are studying (to you), but to say that Wellesley is superior academically to Smith and Barnard is just false.</p>
