<p>I think it says a lot about you that you were able to get into Wellesley (and score so well on your ACT) from your background. Wellesley wouldn’t have accepted you if it didn’t think you could handle it. </p>
<p>Wellesley knows that the work load is difficult, so it provides a lot of support for students. There are so many ways to get help-- academic peer tutors (APTs) in the dorms, individual peer tutoring, office hours, your classmates, etc. First years sign up for a meeting with their dorm’s APT at the beginning of fall semester. I would suggest taking your writing seminar first semester, so you can adjust to college level writing. You might also want to make an appointment at the PLTC ([Wellesley</a> College Pforzheimer Learning and Teaching Center](<a href=“http://www.wellesley.edu/PLTC/index.html]Wellesley”>Redirect to Wellesley College web site)) early in the semester to learn about study skills.</p>
