Wellesley Waitlist 2018

<p>Hi anyone like me also waitlisted by Wellesley? We can move our discussion here instead of under the "Official class of 2018" title (well...that does sounds good haha) It must be a hard month for all of us, but it would be so nice sharing thoughts and questions here!</p>

<p>Btw, I'm an intl student and right now Wellesley is my top choice! I don't know how much chance is that but do hope for the best!</p>

<p>Waitlisted here too but Wellesley is my top choice! I really don’t like having to wait longer.</p>

<p>Me neither! Does anyone have a rough idea of the yield rate this year? I hope there will be space for us</p>

<p>Sigh… just a few more days until it’s May. What major did you apply for?</p>

<p>Haha it’s already May! I applied for International Relations. You?</p>

<p>Anyone hears anything yet? 8-> </p>

<p>I’m so anxious!! And I have my finals going on, which just ups the stress to crazy levels. I think we should hear by the end of the month. Where has everyone paid their deposits? </p>

<p>I only deposited a state university and if the waitlist thing doesn’t work, I can still have a chance ending up in Wellesley by transfer (love it so-so-so much) Feel exactly the same with you! Anxious about wl and my finals are all in this week! My counselor just asked the admission and they said they won’t start till at least a week later</p>

<p>Do you know how many people are on the waitlist this year? Last year only 30 out of the 500 who were on the waitlist got in :/</p>

<p>Best of luck for your finals, btw!!! </p>

<p>No I don’t know but I guess it should be a similar number:( But maybe the number admitted can vary each year?? Thanks and good luck to your final too! Which school are you committed to right now?</p>

<p>Thaaank you!! Bryn Mawr College</p>

<p>Haha what a coincidence! I have a friend who goes to Bryn Mawr and also waitlisted at Wellesley. But she later decided to commit to BM and love it so much! Which state are you from? </p>

<p>I checked out the campus, it’s beeeeaaautiful. But i’ve wanted to go to Wellesley for as long as I can remember :frowning: I’m from Mumbai, India :stuck_out_tongue: You?</p>

<p>Wellesley just called!!! I’m off the wait-list! Expect calls soon. I’m super excited, Wellesley was always my #1 choice</p>

<p>Wow congratulations!!</p>

<p>CONGRATULATIONSSS!!! </p>

<p>@spils96 I’m from China and living in New Jersey. I guess I still belong to the international application pool. Keep our hopes up!
@CeenCat Thanks so much for your good news! At least we know they are still considering people from wl!</p>

<p>@CeenCat‌ did you email them telling them Wellesley’s your first choice after you heard you were wait listed? Did you send them additional info and stuff?</p>

<p>Thanks everyone! Yes, I mostly wanted to mention it so you all know that they are indeed going through the wait-listed pile. </p>

<p>@spils96‌ Yep, I emailed them a letter expressing my continued interest. I also sent in two papers I wrote this year that I was proud of and had two casual interviews with local alumnae.</p>
