Transfers! =D

Colleges and Universities A-Z Wellesley College

<p>Hey guys! </p>

<p>Was anyone else secretly hoping that decisions being released in May was some sort of joke? lol. </p>

<p>It just makes the wait all the more painful =p </p>

<p>Anyway, here’s my stats: </p>

<p>Class Standing: Sophomore
GPA: 3.8<br>
Major: Mathematics
School: University of Connecticut
Other randoms: Member of 2 honor societies, tutor in the math lab for the last 2 semesters, also employed at an apple orchard for the last 5 years, etc. </p>

<p>I really hope we’re all accepted! It would be nice to meet everyone in person! =) </p>

<p>Btw, I had the same thing happen to me with myWellesley saying that they hadn’t received my interview. If you call admissions, they can fix it.</p>

22

<p>My stats are low, but I hope that they look at my overall:
sophomore: GPA 3.58 - and i sent in my midterm report
major: psychology and sociology
school: Mary Baldwin college - was accepted into a gifted program at 16 so hopefully that boosts it
e.c.s: alpha lambda delta (honor society), VP of a club, Captain of cheer, working with a professor on a project</p>

23

<p>Everyone looks good! Wow Wellesley is going to have a hard time choosing. Actually, I was really hoping that the May reply date was also a joke (to be honest I’m still hoping to know something in April lol) ever the eternal optimist I am…
We should def meet up if we all get in, that would be so cool because then we’d go in knowing fellow students!
Good luck everyone. : )</p>

24

<p>I did. I called and emailed. Finally I spoke to a woman who was able to help me. I then sent an email to my interviewer letting her know of the issue and she called the admissions office. So now all I have to do is wait.</p>

25

<p>Hey everyone! I visited Wellesley last week and liked it. Have you all made a decision yet?</p>

26

<p>Can’t make a decision without hearing from admissions first!</p>

27

<p>Does anyone know of an updated number of how many transfers Wellesley is able to accept this year? Earlier, I was told the # was very low (~3-10 women) but I’d like to know if that’s changed based on their new freshman yield/retention rate for this year.</p>

28

<p>guys great news!!
I just went on mywellesley.edu and the following showed up:
" Admission Notifications
Final admission decision information will become available on May 13. You will be able to view your decision online beginning at 5pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time. Decisions will remain posted until June 1. "</p>

<p>WE HAVE A COUNTDOWN DATE!!!</p>

29

<p>cosettex, it is so funny that you just posted that. I just found that on my page! I mean, what else would we be doing than checking our myWellesley’s at 1 a.m.? LOL </p>

<p>Anyway, it’s so nice to finally have a countdown date! </p>

<p>Btw, i just wanted to wish everyone best of luck on finals and of course with their Wellesley decisions!</p>

30

<p>hahahaha amgo08007 glad to know Im not the only one going up the wall with this waiting game (proof being, as u mentioned, that we are both checking mywellesley at 1 am lol.)
Ahhh 15 more days guys . . . we’ll get there.</p>

31

<p>Waiting is horrible! I swear I’ll explode more out of frustration than distress if it turns out I didn’t get in, after waiting for this long!</p>

32

<p>The email scared me SO MUCH! “Your Wellesley College Application”…I nearly fell over. One more week + 3 hours & 15 minutes…</p>

33

<p>Transfer014: I felt the same way. I just opened my inbox and I thought “No way! I sent everything! I’m definitely not getting in now…” haha. Still, it left bad nerves as residue. =&lt;/p>

34

<p>Just curious, what does it say under your guys’ Fin Aid Requirements statuses?</p>

35

<p>I didn’t apply for Fin. Aid, so mine just says “If you have recently sent your application materials to IDOC, please check back in a few days to confirm receipt.”</p>

<p>Also…definitely being paranoid here, but the original email from Wellesley with my Banner ID & pw has a reply-to address of Wellesley<em>College</em>oevbo<em><a href="mailto:dgvowzz@cp20.com">dgvowzz@cp20.com</a>. The email from today has a reply-to of Wellesley</em>College<em>pnyvz</em><a href="mailto:dgvowzz@cp20.com">dgvowzz@cp20.com</a>. Why!?</p>

36

<p>From what I understand from the thread below this one (<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/wellesley-college/1141924-congratulations-wait-list-admittees.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/wellesley-college/1141924-congratulations-wait-list-admittees.html&lt;/a&gt;), they’ve called wait list admittees to inform them of acceptance. Earlier this spring, Smith called their accepted transfer students (not sure they called each one, but I know they called a few) to let them know of acceptance. Does anyone know if Wellesley does the same? If they do, is it a bad thing that they’re calling the wait list admittees before transfers/have any transfers received a call?</p>

<p>Sincerely,
Nervous.</p>

37

<p>hachan, what does it say for your financial aid status?
Is there any way to check fin aid online?
So if they are calling wait list admits does that mean that they’ve already decided on transfers? Or are they not going to be accepting any at all . … has anyone called them lately?</p>

38

<p>click “financial aid requirements” :)</p>

39

<p>A few years ago, I found out my (transfer) acceptance to Wellesley online. I didn’t get a phone call. </p>

<p>I imagine that Wellesley is also considering the numbers of current students-- transferring out, taking a leave of absence, studying abroad, etc. as it makes its transfer decisions.</p>

<p>HELLO!!</p>

<p>I am also waiting for the decision of Wellesley very impatiently! I am from Miami by the way.</p>
