It’s already impossible to get into so most people don’t really need to worry whether it’s their cup of tea.

Be honest- is your DD gay or bi?

But +1 to the person who said it's where fun goes to die.
I found law school relatively easy and definitely more fun than Wellesley.

Graciously explain how you are using this term. Sisters and brothers?


Short for siblings. It's a term that Wellesley alums often use to refer to one another.

I love that you straight up just were honest about your dd

Did you tell her that?

I said it more delicately. PP

I forget that we are all old enough to have posted on autoadmit, above the law, tls, read vault guides and now have kids going to college and we can see some of our kids turning to characters we came across on those forums

Wellesley doesn’t give scholarships. It doesn’t need to.


Of course Wellesley gives scholarships. Lots of scholarships! But they are based on need, not merit.

That is not a scholarship, it is financial aid.
The story about the scholarship and the lesbian is a complete fabrication.

I don't believe this.


Wellesley doesn’t even give scholarships. Try harder.

The dating dynamics at co-ed schools are changing as there are fewer men. At least t a women's college you know what you are in for.

The co-ed college experience isn't what it used to be either. There aren't many guys there anymore, and it's becoming harder for girls to get in because there are "too many women."
