[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, the title of this thread is "Why don't more kids want Wesleyan?" I won't go into all the details, but I'll tell you that if you look through other threads, talk to alums, and look at online surveys, you'll find that my kid is not the only one with this impression. Not fed by me. Of course different kids have different experiences and move in different crowds. I like the school and we know multiple happy kids there. I'm answering OP's question and giving one data point based our DD's visit and her conversations with many current students. If you'd like a thread where no ill is spoken of impressions of the school by prospective students, feel free to start one![/quote]
This is only if you take the post for granted. Wesleyan gets a healthy amount of applications more than some of the top lacs. It’s pretty damn popular.

We don’t particularly care about the the kids who want to go to USC or Alabama, because that student has preferences that have little in common with Wesleyan. The question becomes why would a student choose Pomona or Williams or Middlebury or Grinnell over Wesleyan? Those environments aren’t any less “progressive liberal” than Wesleyan, so it’s something else. [/quote]
