<h2>Lifeguard since sophomore year and promoted to Head Lifeguard last year</h2>
<p>Wes already accepted two kids from my school and I know that apprx 20 other people are applying RD (but I'm EDII). As far as I know I'm one of the most qualified.</p>
<p>What part of the country are you from? Twenty(!) classmates are applying to Wesleyan?? And have any applicants from your school been denied or deferred admission this fall? I would caution you about thinking that you are “more qualified” than other applicants based on your SAT/ACT scores and GPA and even your own subjective evaluation of your ECs. I have long believed that Wesleyan truly practices “holistic” admissions and in addition, displays a good amount of “craftsmanship” in putting together a very diverse and dynamic class each year. My son was admitted ED1 this year and after his college counselor spoke with one of the admissions officers who read his application, it became clear that it was the composite picture of how my son appeared to the AdCom that closed the deal. From a purely statistical standpoint, you do appear to have an excellent chance, particularly as an ED applicant. But the AdCom will also be making a subjective evaluation of your essay, your recommendations, your college counselor’s statement and then contrasting that with all of the other applicants. As my son told me recently it seems like “an insanely random process”. I tend to agree. In any case, best wishes to you and I hope you get a positive answer from Wesleyan. I would also say that wherever you wind up matriculating, you will add greatly to your college next fall. Good luck!</p>
<p>S got in last year from wait list (after applying EDII) with exact same SAT, slightly higher GPA, lower class rank (from top prep school) and marginally better ECs.</p>
<p>Based on that, I’d say your chances are fair to good.</p>
