I was accepted with only slightly higher test scores and a 4.36 GPA and no interview. I didn’t have many extras or awards, but I did take some very difficult college courses (during summers). I also took all honors and 5 AP courses. I wrote strong essays and perfected them over several weeks. I had attended an overnight at Wellesley. My resume mainly included visits to art museums all over the world, Italian as a 2nd language, sports like golf, sailing and tennis. I consider myself the model Wellesley Girl… never get drunk, enjoy reading and playing club sports. I’m willing to travel for male entertainment (Harvard and MIT), keeping them at a safe distance so as not to interfere with my studies. I also showed my Wellesley spirit by applying ED. I’m a Harvard legacy, but Wellesley is far better for female undergrads. Harvard focuses on grads only. Good luck!
