@Marzzz Have you looked at the joint program with Olin? My D looked at Olin, and it is an amazing engineering school. 10 minutes away from W with shuttle bus transportation, and Wellesley has various levels of programming you can do, from an engineering certificate all the way to a dual degree. Olin is a beautiful and small campus with very friendly students.
@divarose Hey! I read about the dual degree program with Olin but it takes 5 years to complete. I dont think that will be feasible for me. But i actually just got accepted to Duke today! So i think im going to choose engineering at Duke now :P I still loveeee Wellesley though
@nrtlax33 I applied for biochem at Wellesley. But for Duke i applied for biomedical engineering. My first priority is definitely engineering! And Duke has a great program.
Accepted, planning to attend the ADOCH program in mid-April to get a better feel for the university. As I am from Idaho, I have not had the opportunity to visit yet; however, the acceptance definitely piqued my interest! I have read that Brown has gained notoriety as having more “outgoing” students... can anyone attest to this? I am very extroverted, heavily involved in athletics and extracurriculars, and have been a little nervous that I will have a hard time finding a core friend group.
@momfromoregon: Congrats! We just got back from an East Coast college tour with our HS jr daughter; although Brown was on spring break, she was able to strike up a conversation with one student still on campus, and I believe she still got a decent feel for the school. She still has a lot of time to think about which schools fit her best, however. Your son had some great schools from which to choose. What does he expect his initial concentration to be? What factors about Brown led him to choose to attend school there?
@the12thwoman, I have a daughter that's now a sophomore at brown, and as of last week, my son will be joining the class of 2022. From what we've seen you will be exposed to a student body that represents a wide range of personalities with a dizzying array of interests; it seems there's something for everyone. I would find it hard to believe that you won't be able to find a place there. I have no doubt you'll find some life long friends there.

He was waitlisted at Cornell, Penn and Berkeley; accepted at Bowdoin, Carnegie Mellon, UCLA, and others.
He will be attending Brown for sure.
