Hello everyone! I’m making this thread in the hopes that fellow QBNCM Finalists who ranked Wesleyan can connect with each other and share their experiences with this process as a whole.
Personally, Wes is my #1 choice, and I am really pleading and praying and petitioning for a Match on December 2nd. But like…seriously. I feel like I sound like a Wes shill writing this, but I’ve just absolutely fallen in love with this college and I think I am a really strong fit for it.
If any other Questies find this thread – how has this process treated you so far? Is Wes one of your top picks?
Hi there! Super excited to meet another (hopeful) future Cardinal!
Just curious here – what drew you to Wesleyan? For me, this might sound dumb, but I first grew interested in Wes after finding a student’s ‘day-in-the-life’ vlog on YouTube. But other than that, Wesleyan checks all the boxes for me. It’s small and quirky – but really vibrant, too.
I recently did a weird Stalkerish-thing and read like forty posts from the Argus opinion column to see what income disparity is like at Wes (as well as any other indicators of what I might experience as someone from a low-income, online-schooled background). And while everything I read wasn’t exactly reassuring, I’m still confident Wesleyan is the right place for me.
Well, I’m a really big history buff and I really love the play Hamilton (Any Hamilfans? Haha). I low-key worship Lin-Manuel Miranda, so I found out that he went to Wes, and I just did more research and fell in love with its liberal arts curriculum and a lot of their majors (American Studies, Classical Civilization, and History to name a few). What about you?
