<p>Is the pre-app the supp?</p>
<p>So all we need to submit is the common app, SAT scores, teacher recs, transcripts (and no extra essays or qs?).</p>
<p>Surely it can't be THAT simple......? Someone pls answer.</p>
<p>Nope, it really is that easy.
Man, Wesleyan is so awesome. :P</p>
<p>and then just the common app right?</p>
<p>don't i need to show them why i want to go to welseyan.. and demonstrate my knowledge of their school?</p>
<p>The admissions people at Wesleyan are pretty pragmatic. They know that most "Why this school" essays people write are fake BS because high school seniors really aren't that good at articulating their abstract reasons for applying to a school. And they also know that kids are filling out tons of applications and it is burdensome to have to crank out another formulaic essay. So just make your common app essay good. Also you can include anything extra that doesn't fit into the common app if you feel it's important.</p>
<p>I don't think demonstrating knowledge of the school is necessary. Obviously if your application suggests you're an engineering hopeful or something they might frown on it (Wesleyan has no engineering), but I don't think they're judging people based on how well they know the school.</p>
<p>Silver_wavez, I am so happy you are posting on the Wesleyan board now. I watched you on the other (unnamed) board. My son was accepted early decision at Wesleyan - how nice if he could meet you some time!</p>
<p>Wow.. I'm very flattered cedronella. Thank you.
We met on C board before right?</p>
<p>Yes, it was the C board. Glad you are exploring your new options. Remember, as you told somebody else once, it all works out in the end...</p>
<p>:) Yep... I still TOTALLY believe that! Congrats on you S!</p>
<p>I'm soooo looking forward to all 10 of my RD schools... I'll be very happy at any one of those schools!
Great opportunities await at every corner! I guess you just have to open your eyes a bit... to realize that they are there...</p>
