Wesleyan Applicants Class of 2023 Discussion

yes, my daughter’s letter was signed. Nice touch!

My son’s is signed and there’s a cute little note “yes! Come to Wes!”
Very nice touch! I think indicative of the friendly environment at Wesleyan!

my daughter is thrilled to have been accepted - she’s waiting on two answers and will accept this weekend!!

Received an admission package yesterday. Quite pretty letter signed by hand, but not much material else.

Wow. Congratulations, eveybody.

Yes! I got in through RD as an international student. I got full ride and I’m so super excited. Who else got in so we can be friends if possible? Go Wes!

has anyone gotten any news about the waitlist?

Has anyone heard about the Hamilton prize?

Just got notified that I cleared the waitlist!

@aboutagrrl congrats! I’m on the waitlist too and I haven’t received anything yet. What did you do/any advice for waiting? Should I even hope anymore since the first letters have already been sent out?

I have no idea how many spots there are left. I showed a lot of interest when I applied (interviewed, visited twice), but I didn’t even submit a LOCI, so I’m not sure what their criteria was.

How were you notified? Through a phone call?

I don’t really know what I could’ve done differently. My common app was very in line with what I thought Wesleyan would’ve wanted, excellent stats, good EC, wrote a compelling LOCI, visited, with interview. I’m very interested in theatre, which is supposed to be super big at Wesleyan and wrote about that in my LOCI. I was waitlisted and I haven’t received anything from them.

if anyone was admitted off of the waitlist-- do they send you the financial information right away, or do you commit first?

I was emailed this afternoon that I’m a finalist for the Hamilton Prize and will be notified by phone call next Wednesday the 15th if I win

My daughter was also admitted off the waitlist yesterday. She was called on Wednesday and then emailed with the update to the portal. The financial aid letter was there as well.
