Yes I did as well, I don’t think it’s a sign
The most current CDS is out.
The difference between Male and Female Acceptances is pretty big. (22% and 17%)
Seems similar to Vassar, Conn, Skidmore, etc.
Is #colleges-and-universities:wesleyan-university Regular decision date this weekend? Lots of other LAC appear to be on Friday and Saturday
It may not represent a coincidence that the three schools you chose for comparison are all former women’s colleges, however.
If you go back a half century, sure. What may be more relevant is that they all have strong theater and/or dance departments.
They seem to release on Saturdays so my guess would be this weekend or next!
Emory, Hamilton, Oberlin …
My educated guess would be that it has more to do with their not having strong engineering programs; see in contrast Swarthmore which has engineering, RPI, Lehigh…
Based on IPEDS data for the most recent year available, the acceptance rate for male and female applicants to Emory (20%, 19%) and Hamilton (19%, 18%) differed by only 1 percentage point, however.

NO!
Fun Fact: When Wesleyan became co-ed in 1969, the big question was whether it could ever attract enough women to make their admission competitive with men. They seem to have exceeded expectations!
Big day today on CC for many schools – any intel on when Wesleyan is notifying RD applicants?
Did anyone recently receive an email asking if they would be seeking financial aid?
Hoping it will be this Friday? Any other ideas?
Last year was Saturday, so more likely that, but who knows?
Do they typically send an email saying when decisions will be out before hand?
Seriously ■■■ is going on with them? All the other schools my kid is applying have communicated a date.
I believe it will be Saturday the 26th
