oops i posted that twice sorry lol

Hi, i applied to WTP as an international student, how likely do you think my chances are for getting in? Are there many international kids who attend WTP? Thanks!

I have no connection to MIT, but I want to tell all of you that DD attended WTP a few years ago, and it was a life-changing experience for her. It helped her gain clarity about her direction and what she liked and what she didn’t like. She learned a lot and is still in contact with several of the girls who attended with her.

If WTP offers you admission, I strongly recommend that you do whatever you need to do to make that happen.

@kavya03 hello! I went to WTP last year and we did have a few international girls there, but most of them were from the states. I think as long as you have the high grades/good extracurriculars/good essays, you have a decent chance :slight_smile:

Hey where are all of you from? Anybody planning on applying to MIT? I’m from Illinois!

Hi everyone !! I come from Germany, applied to WTP, and am planning to apply to MIT in Fall. I really am excited to see the results when they come in, the anticipation is killing me :D. Is there anyone else applying to ME?

Hi! thanks so much that was really helpful, I’m actually from the states (NJ) btw so that should be cool @kinryu

@Eli13 I’m applying to ME too. Fingers crossed we both get in!

26 days left guys! (sorry to pop in out of nowhere haha)

I was looking at the website again to clarify something and I saw that there were 696 (!) applicants for the 2018 WTP program! That’s an 8.62% acceptance rate, almost as low as MIT undergraduate admissions! I was really hoping that I would get accepted into the program, but maybe not after all :frowning:

Do you think that asking for an early decision lowers the chances of acceptance? I kind of need to know for summer plans but I also don’t want to risk the already tiny chance of getting accepted :-/

@aks1118 we are in the same boat! No idea.

Anyone asked for an early decision?

I’m so nervous guys WTP is my dream. Cannot wait for one more week :<<<<
