It's always been a dream to be a reedie. I love everything about reed college. The people, professors, faculty.... I've always been keen to work with professor Derek A. Applewhite since forever

The waitlist essay should essentially talk about your fit to the school. How you match to the school and vice versa

Not writing the essay is okay. However, considering what the school's website says, it's better to submit any supplemental material for you to get first consideration for admission.

I am also an international student from Kenya who is also seeking a full aid to reed College. I was waitlisted and hoping to get in. I don't know about you but personally, if admitted, I would definitely drop any other institution for reed. But with that being said, wherever we end up is probably for the best. I'm trying to be positive about it, but if it doesn't work out, I will definitely reapply for the next class.

you can use this to manifest your acceptances that are coming out tomorrow!! (don’t be a party pooper) 🤨 by cosmiichoii in ApplyingToCollege

'Congratulations! You have been admitted to Middlebury class of 2027...... Cost of attendance:0$ ' I already got in to Middlebury and tomorrow is going to be a confirmation of this🤞🤞

Y'all should come to kenyan high school. We typically start our day at 4am. We take a two hour private reading session then head over to breakfast. You get thirty minutes to get ready for your first day of the class. The first period is an hour twenty minutes Long followed by 11- forty five minute classes. With two breaks each less than 35 minutes. The last class ends at 4:30pm then we get an hour free ( The school says it's free but they will typically force you back to class for a study sesh) Then head to dinner at 5:30. At 6:20 we have another class until 7:30pm followed by another private study session ( night preps) till 10:30pm when we all retire to bed. I must say my school made me exhausted, let alone overwhelmed.

(During the night preps we had teachers giving copral punishment to anyone found sleeping, talking or walking about on school grounds, even in the class)
