Emily's Review

Review of Wesleyan University

from South Windsor, CT

Describe your college in three sentences.

Liberal, creative. A place where freedom of expression is EXPECTED. If you don't like to live outside the box, don't even apply.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Solid grades and test scores (this is a little ivy!) Extracurriculars that show who you are

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

In any given class, there is an air of excitement and purpose. Wesleyan has an open curriculum, meaning that if you're in a class you're there because you want to be there. Did I mention its a little ivy?

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Wesleyan has a lot of diverse and cool living options. There are a multitude of living communities that are volunteer or major-oriented.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

VERY Vegetarian friendly

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Middletown CT is a bit dumpy, but there are a lot of clubs and fun things to do at Wesleyan itself.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Once a year Wesleyan students have a silent on campus dance. Everyone makes their own playlists, puts on their headphones, and jams out at the same time.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Creative, individualistic, artsy, brainy
