***Wesleyan Class of 2022 Applicants Discussion***

@hjyescswer , hi there, international here. Congratulations. Do you mind posting some stats, country and
If you applied for financial aid?

sure, i think decisions r made anyways and there coming out on 24th. I live in France but I am American. I didnt send my SAT to Wesleyan cuz it was low (1230), but I sent SAT US history 690, Bio E 590, French 750. I also sent my three AP exams (spanish, lang, apush). my school doesnt really do cum gpa, but i generally get Bs.

@meredithfp My D also applied to more reach schools than match schools. Her stats are excellent, but we are realizing…so are everybody’s. Our house is super stressed out right now waiting for these decisions! Good luck to your daughter. :slight_smile:

Good luck everyone! I went to Wes in the 80’s and loved it. I think it’s even better now. My D is likely going to Bowdoin but we’ll see after Saturday …

Hi yall! did anyone else apply as a transfer student? Also, i saw some people say that decisions are coming out on 3/24 or 3/25? Is that expected to be the same for transfers? because the (transfer) financial aid deadline isnt till April 1st… thanks

What time on the 24th? 8pm?

@nailahhuq29 I don’t think the 24th is confirmed

@txcountry , I wouldn’t count on the transfer announcements coming out the same time as RD admits. Think more like mid-May.

Do I stand a chance? GPA: 3.65 (about a 3.7/3.75 after semester 1), ACT: 34, 6 AP’s, 4 AP US, 5 AP WH, 5 AP English Lang, I run 2 clubs at school, I am a varsity athlete, I conduct cancer research at yale university, I participate in musical theater and choir, i have gone on exchange to spain, i interviewed, i visited, i also have multiple sports and academic awards.

I’m scared I don’t think I’m going to get in (after all it was my reach school) but still :frowning:

@circuitrider Thank you!

Yes! You have an excellent chance. I applied ED 1 and got in with slightly lower starts than yours. I know the acceptance rate is higher for ED, but I truly believe Wes gives a holistic approach when reading applications. Don’t give up hope, I think you have a great shot!

@r5n38dj You have a great chance! I got an early write earlier this month and many of your stats are stronger than mine were. Keep in mind that Wes has a pretty deflated acceptance rate, so chances are better than they seem.

Can someone chance me for Wesleyan? Swarthmore was my top choice and I got rejected so I’m hoping things go well here. My stats are:
GPA: 4.15 W ; 3.59 UW
Rank: 83/519
ACT: 32 (35 R, 35 S, 32 M, 26 E)
AP: Human Geo (4), Stat (4), Environmental Sci (4), World History (5), Calc AB (3), Chemistry (3), Lang (4)
Current: Lit, Calc BC, French, Bio
ECs: Camp counselor at environmental center, community theatre, improv team, sunday school teacher, relay for life team leader, NHS, french honor society (founder and VP), figure skating team, envirothon, girl scouts, robotics, wakesman student scholars program participant, National Center for Bioinformatics DNA Sequence and Analysis Contributor
Essay: I wrote about living on the Chesapeake bay and how it could be saved
I assume my recs were good the teachers both know me well
Anticipated Major: Molecular Biology
I’m also a girl, mixed, and from a low income family
Thank you to anyone who helps me!

I got accepted to Dickinson and macalester, and was waitlisted at Kenyon which are aweome LACs, so do you think I have a chance at getting into Wesleyan

Two people on reddit say their portal is missing the checklist. Mine still has it. Anyone else? Is this any indication of the decision?

@redchicken101 I just checked and I still have my checklist. It could just be a random glitch some people are experiencing.

Mine is also gone…

Mine is gone too

Mine is gone as well
