deft dome
#

#

wayy back in january it was brutal

slow wharf
#

early action (non-binding early) early decision (binding early)

umbral drift
#

my dartmouth deferral was probably my most stressful oeping since them i've barely been very nervous i think i'm desensitized

umbral drift
slow wharf
#

Is it possible to get rejected to every school but then accepted to williams?

umbral drift
#

anything is possible

#

it actually probably mostly depends on where else you applied

#

if you applied strictly to reaches then for sure i would think so

deft dome
#

when a door closes another opens dw babes 🔥

slow wharf
#

Oh noo vassar

#

Vassar is love

still wing
#

is true but vassar has a lot of things that kinda suck with it ngl

#

party scene is horrendous

slow wharf
#

No one goes to LAC for a party

still wing
#

and people here are pretentious as fuck

still wing
#

worse than most

#

umbral drift
#

what's the social scene like at colorado college does anyone know

slow wharf
#

lol

umbral drift

#

vassar has an insane amount of lesbians

#

and bisexual women

slow wharf
#

This is why I love girl-dominated schools, they have an insane culture

still wing
#

really only because of the athletes tbh

#

most people are pretty left wing at slacs

#

except cmc

umbral drift

#

barnard and wellesley are the only non pwi seven sisters i’m pretty sure also

#

barnard’s bordering on it tho

slow wharf
#

Ah Barnarrdd

still wing
#

feels good to be above them in ranking now 👅

slow wharf
#

bruh, I have a reason to believe barnard is more prestigious than Vassar peepocry

still wing
#

i think it’s like
wellesley, vassar, barnard, smith, bryn mawr, moho

#

in order

still wing
slow wharf
#

Hmm vassar propaganadaaa

still wing
#

it is

#

vassar ar for men is like >5% higher

slow wharf
#

Aah should've applied to Vassarr

still wing
#

legit like half the amount of men apply to vassar than women

#

iirc

rigid socket
#

damn

#

ig makes sense

umbral drift
still wing
#

i mean we are like 65/35 women/men iirc so

slow wharf
#

what major are you trying for?

deft dome
#

this guy told me it wasnt very smart of me to apply to LACs if im premed/health I was like ???

slow wharf
#

hmm I thought it's CS lol but it wasnt the case

still wing
#

lacs are great for premed

#

esp if there’s a hospital nearby

#

vassar has 2 nearby

slow wharf
#

Real that's true

still wing
#

so very nice

#

but also premed here is like so fucking competitive it’s so hard to get into classes

#

like it’s already bad for cs and math

#

bio or chem is on a whole different level

slow wharf
#

Colorado College is also a pretty great premed school I heard

deft dome
#

oh!

slow wharf
#

like the block system actually prepares you to how a med school feels like

still wing
#

like we have in person registration too

#

lol

#

it’s kinda cooked

deft dome
#

i think worst case scenario im going to commit to mt holyoke

#

and im not so sure how well that would play out

still wing
#

prereg esp for those classes is hell

#

like we are a lac with intro bio and chem classes being like 100 students

deft dome
#

UofT, Mcmaster, UBC (im canadian)

#

im waiting on other places

still wing
#

uoft sg?

slow wharf
#

Damnn

deft dome
#

anyway I live here in the states tho

#

so its like a last resort

slow wharf
#

I have some counsins studying at UofT

deft dome
slow wharf
#

is it prestigious?

deft dome
#

#

just really fucking difficult

family friend of mine went to utsc

#

deft dome
#

coop phys and env sci on health sci track

#

oh really???

#

thats reassuring, i always see people hating

still wing
#

tbh i think it’s better like than utsg just to live there lol

#

utsg housing is crazy

#

but he liked it a lot

#

so did his sister

slow wharf
#

Bruh anyway yea I have to get down fr ts pmo, calculus quizzz

still wing
#

he was biz or whatever though i forgot the exact thing

#

good coops at utsc

deft dome
#

uoft is so tempting bc im not paying intl tuition and i got some scholarships but my parents prefer me staying in the US

slow wharf
#

I don't feel the deflation

deft dome
#

so my fingers are crossed for other decisions

slow wharf
#

I'm getting perfect scores in all of the test as of now

#

idk, it was t30 5 years ago I believe?? but then it dropped to t60 lol

#

alot of my senior friends from the same highschool just got waitlisted to brandeis lol

#

fr

#

Cuz its half lac half research

#

that's what I loved about it

#

But the new president is umm, wanting to be like the nyuu

#

cuz the new rankings doesn't care about teacher-student ratio so the president is planning to expand the hell out of it

#

It's quite a debate in the Brandeis community to pursue to the path of liberal art college or research university

#

I aint coming to the class if the professor doesn't know I exist lol

#

Yea I'm quite loving it as well

rigid socket
#

#

not as many south asians tho but UMass has so many south asians that i just go to the UMass South Asian clubs (I'm Indian)

#

the diversity issues that Amherst is having post-AA are related to not being able to get other demographics, there's plenty of asians around

#

and even then i think 2028 was still like 40? % asian max

#

yeah 39%

Oh wash Lee, if you reject me my heart will go squash you see.

Are womens' colleges usually for lesbians? I applied to a ton. A legit question bc for some reason it never dawned on me why some girls would want to go to a womens' college besides safety reasons and environment until i realized that everyone i know going to bryn mawr is a lesbian lol

Decent ROI. Lots of opportunities for community service if that's your thing.

Super-liberal study abroad policies (I think you can study abroad from sophomore year on; you also can do more than one study abroad program if you so wish, which is pretty unique).

Mandatory senior thesis helpful if you'd like to go to grad school

Personally, I really like the way they've set up their "core"/distributional requirements - a major-related writing component every year and an emphasis on exploration that still gives you a lot of freedom to focus on your interests - though obviously your opinions may be different

#

For what it's worth, I also found their admissions staff really, really nice - my own AO was really willing to give detailed responses to my questions (and even connect me to faculty members), while the one who contacted me to let me off their waitlist seemed pretty friendly and extremely patient with my incoherence

# slate marten Are womens' colleges usually for lesbians? I applied to a ton. A legit question ...

Parent here HWCs are the BEST. Yes I’m biased bc I went to one. It was the right choice for me. It gave me the space I needed to give myself permission to use my voice. And here’s the thing you hear all about alumni network of schools and how that is important down the road. But with an HWC your network isn’t just that school you went to. It is all of them. Bc there is something intangible that happens at an HWC that crosses boundaries of school rivalry after graduation. You all know you had similar experiences and you help each other. When I move states one of the first things I do is find the HWC alumni group in that area. I even found my current job on the Women’s College Alumni Network. I am older than google so in my naivety I didn’t even comprehend that I was going to an HWC until I got on campus. A senior told me something my freshman year ‘if you stay here all 4 years you will like the woman you are when you leave’ and no truer words were ever spoken. We’re there lots of LGBTQIA individuals (back before it was ok). Yeah. But am I a better person for the education and environment that made a safe space for anyone there to be who they are…oh yeah. Go to the best school FOR YOU and it will help you grow past and better than you ever thought you could be.

This reminds me of the NESCAC network—as an Amherst student I can cold email a Williams/Bowdoin/Colby alum and they'll usually help out as well
