What is your unweighted GPA?

Is your HS considered academically challenging? Do you have to work hard for your grades?

My D found Wellesley to be quite challenging academically. She loved it, but compared to HS she had to work so much harder, and she worked fairly hard in HS. She was not a recruited athlete at Wellesley, but had the opportunity to be a walk-on (she was recruited by some other schools) but decided not to do sports at Wellesley because she didn’t think she could handle the academics and the time commitment of a sport. She also had to work part-time while in college (work study was part of her financial aid award).

What I’m trying to say is: getting accepted to Wellesley is not the end goal. Graduating from college is. If your high school academic record is significantly below their average, if you are admitted to Wellesley and decide to attend, you may find yourself struggling academically.
