Good luck tomorrow, everyone! Remember that this year is absolutely insanely competitive across the board. I know so many bright, accomplished students who are been rejected and waitlisted at so many schools. My daughter just got rejected by Northwestern, and we’re not optimistic about Wesleyan now, but hopeful.

Thanks. I applied to the Asian Freeman Scholarship and did not receive any follow-up interviews so I guess that 99% I am rejected.

I think it’s good that you are not getting your hopes up. However, I think that goes for just about everyone who applies to Wesleyan or any other college that rejects 85% of its applicants. Technically speaking, the Freeman is a merit-based scholarship program, one of only a handful offered by Wes. International students who do not win a Freeman might still be in the running for need-based financial aid, if they applied or it. I guess you already know your fate by now. Feel free to let us know the outcome, one way or the other.

Your qualifications are amazing. It’s just a lottery of sorts. We just have to remember that kindness matters, love matters, equality matters. Where we go to college doesn’t matter

Waitlisted. Theatre major (applied with supplemental theatre essay).
OOS. 97.4/100 uw, 1530 SAT, all honors classes except for 2 APs in Calc (5s on exams, only 4 APs available at school), full load of college classes for senior year (“dual enrollment”) with all As in fall semester. Strong ECs and essays, and strong LORs (from what we’ve been told). But she got a good acceptance yesterday, so she is okay with this.
