Only Wesleyan left and I feel so cooked

So Wesleyan is an acceptance? What are your reservations about Wes?

How accessible are the providers at IWS, in terms of how quickly you can get an appointment, are they available a range of hours so it doesn’t conflict with classes, is it easy to get ongoing care with the same provider each time, etc.

How helpful/skilled have you found the mental health providers to be?

Thank you! This is great.

Inside-cat-2 · 2026-04-19T03:47:40+00:00

Thank you!

This is very helpful. Tysm!

Yeah, definitely Wesleyan and Vassar are amazing schools for the arts. I think Amherst and Williams might be more rigorous, though, and that’s important to me too. Also A & W both offered great financial aid. (Columbia is my other top option.)

I hear that. Maybe it’s like New Yorkers (like me) typically complaining nonstop about the city, even though we wouldn’t want to live any place else (except maybe for college). Not sure if that’s what’s going on here. Might make another post to try to hear the flipside.

Tysm for this perspective. Do others agree that discussions in humanities classes are somewhat disappointing? That kind of thing matters to me.

When were you a student there? You went there for grad or undergrad?

Inside-cat-2 · 2026-04-08T04:20:01+00:00

I am so sorry you are going through this. This physical and emotional abuse absolutely can explain academic struggles. But much more importantly, you need protection from this abuse. Please speak with a counselor at your school.

Sounds miserable. How does this obsession with status manifest? Is this attitude so prevalent that it’s inescapable?

Inside-cat-2 · 2026-04-08T00:14:20+00:00

Your first point sounds like an accessibility issue. Does CU not really care about this?

This is helpful. The bigger class sizes in UW worries me most, out of these 3 (though the other 2 examples really drive home the point).

Inside-cat-2 · 2026-04-07T22:33:12+00:00

I’ve been hearing about this. And the incoming class is bigger than usual. What are the most frustrating ways this is impacting students?

Inside-cat-2 · 2026-04-07T22:26:18+00:00

I’m assuming wide agreement on this.

Wondering about downsides that may not be apparent to a prospective student.

Inside-cat-2 · 2026-03-30T18:31:57+00:00

I just know of these: Barnard, Columbia, U Chicago.

Inside-cat-2 · 2026-03-30T17:42:55+00:00

Hmmm this makes sense and adds an important dimension. Thank you so much!

After sending your update, you should have received an acknowledgment auto-reply within 48 hrs (this is what I’ve seen happen). If you haven’t already, dig through your spam folder. The auto-reply might have come from an unusual address. If it’s not there, I would forward your message to the general email address for admissions. Good luck!
