<p>I have to depend on what people tell me when making my college decisions. </p>
<p>That’s not unreasonable. Hey, the application is free online!</p>
<ol>
<li>I’m planning on applying EE. How “easy” would it be for a likely to turn into a rejected, and an unlikely to turn into an acceptance?</li>
</ol>
<p>Next to impossible.</p>
<ol>
<li>I’m the kind of person that will eat burgers one day, and go out for Indian the next. Will I find diverse restaurants in Wellesley (the town) and other surrounding towns? I am excluding Boston.</li>
</ol>
<p>You will find, pizza, snoot, ice cream, sandwiches and a couple of Thai places within walking distance of campus. Route 9 (accessible by vehicle) has every chain imaginable. I don’t really do Indian food, so I can’t name places.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Does Wellesley have the Huckabee supporter AND the Obama fan?
I’m sure someone at Wellesley was sad Huckabee lost the primary. I know people who voted for Romney. Obama fans are easy to find.</p></li>
<li><p>Is Wellesley as pretty as it was in Mona Lisa Smile or is there an “ugly” side?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Yes. The science center. But it’s cute in a dorky way.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>The Highly Charged Erotic Life of the Wellesley Girl Exaggerated or truth? I understand everyone’s an adult and this happens everywhere, but I can’t say I got a good impression from this article. (Mostly due to the affairs with “Professor Randolph.”)
It’s a bit stretched. This was before my time, and I wish this sort of gossip floated around campus, because it sounds juicy. Sadly I get no dirt of this sort. I do know of a professor who married a student decades ago.</p></li>
<li><p>When I study abroad, how long can I do it for? Will Wellesley help with my plane fare/housing/spending allowances (for books, clothes, food, etc.)?
one or two semesters. I don’t know whether Wellesley pays for expenses.</p></li>
<li><p>Do dorms have free and unlimited heating and A/C?
You get heat in the winter months. no AC</p></li>
<li><p>The one (material) thing I need if I ever go to Wellesley is a pillow.</p></li>
<li><p>I love Wellesley because of the pretty campus and atmosphere, but am seriously turned off by having too much to do.</p></li>
<li><p>Excluding tuition and housing, is attending Wellesley expensive or relatively cheap? As in, used books get good discounts, nearby restaurants won’t steal my wallet, a bus pass is cheap, etc.
You can buy things off of other students (books, supplies) for cheap. Clothing comes cheap @ Sisters Keepers. Bus pass is $20 for ten rides. And the town is so upscales someone left a Mercedes-Benz running with the key in the ignition at a street corner in the ville.
I have another question: what is the best cell phone provider? I’m really sorry for the triple post, I’m just a desperate student who wants to make the right decisions for where to apply to college. <em>hands out cookies</em>
Not T-mobile. AT&T and Verizon work fine.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>i have another: while wellesley certainly has a reputation for being academically rigorous, how <em>intellectual</em> is it? are there some students willing to be uninhibitedly nerdy? ; P</p>
<p>Yes.</p>
