I had not intended to apply to Swarthmore because I find these types of schools so out of reach for me with my ACT score and all. I had gotten their email for their fee waiver and since they had not required an extensive supplemental essay I thought that I wouldn’t lose anything by applying. I fell in love with the school soon after and I’m so happy I got accepted.
