Has anyone been accepted?

Any acceptances yet? If so, please list stats etc. Also, does anyone know how financial aid works for Wheaton? Are they generous?

Thanks!

we just received our financial aid package and they are giving my son $1,000/year. We are really disappointed. We wish they would have offered more, financially it is out of our reach
