The conventional wisdom is do most likely submit if your SAT is above the 25% and definitely submit if it is above 1385.  I am surprised at how few submit and how low the SAT scores are.  From these numbers it doesn't appear to be that selective.

Even Conn College has a higher submittal rate: 54% submit.  Its SAT scores are lower, 1160-1280-1400.  But still not "overly" selective.

Wesleyan's is 41% submit.  1300-1420-1500.  Definitely more competitive, but not like most of the private colleges in the T50 in national universities.

It looks like the quality of student is not as high as one would expect.  Is it a function that the high scorers gravitate to research private schools?  While not a SLAC Tufts has a higher quality student on paper than Wesleyan. (Same for other NE privates like Harvard, MIT, BU, Northeastern, BC, etc.)
