Hi, I’m from Illinois, and I’m applying RD.
Random comment: One of my friends applied to WashU ED 2 years ago, got rejected, and then was accepted to Brown. Isn’t that crazy?
Why do you guys think WashU only requires 1 teacher rec while most schools of similar “calibers” require 2?
@ManaManaWegi I think that they place a greater emphasis on the more objective part of an application (test scores and GPA) than the relatively subjective part (essays, teacher recs), which is probably why they don’t have a supplemental essay (most high-ranked schools have supplemental essays). It could also be because they have a lot of applicants that they just simply don’t have enough time to read a lot of recs (many of them are generic and similar so they don’t mean much anyways).
I already submitted my app to get an interview. I’m really excited to be applying; I’m also applying to the university scholars program and Nemerov writing scholarship!
Does everyone get to interview? If so, where can I request an interview?
I got reached out by an interviewer
I didn’t get an interview yet.
From Illinois yay!
Tbh a lot of my peers have been accepted to colleges and have received decent packages while here I am waiting for March. Anyone else as anxious as me?
Same!!! I just want to know!
@ScaredofSchool so you didn’t have to contact an interviewer or demonstrate that you wanted one?? they reached out to you???
Yep! They just emailed me and I told them days that worked! I hada reallygreat interviewer who said she’d tell washu that I really wanted to attend!
@theriightwei it’s so awkward being the only person at my school who will get decisions in march (or even in February)
Why do you find out early?
When will WUSL send RD admissions notifications?
I submitted my app on Dec 9 just to get an interview, lol
