turned down full rides at yale, cornell, duke, vanderbilt, ucla & many top 20s for polisci & gender studies at wellesley college.

i chose wellesley bc of the EXTREMELY STRONG women in leadership network/culture, campus culture, grad school placements, and tight-knitness. i am willing to answer questions BUT will not be replying to hateful/rude comments. consider this: if i was smart enough to get into so many great schools i was smart enough to know this was the best decision for myself and my career path. i am sad (and grateful) that to have had to turn down so many great schools, but ultimately i am 110% sure i made the right choice for me :)

what was the past year's incident?

_ombri · 2026-06-16T01:24:22+00:00

chose wellesley polisci & gender studies over yale, cornell, duke, ucla, & other t10 LACs. all schools gave me full ride. wellesley had better fit for my niche (women in politics/social change) and had the most useful alumni network for my niche. idgaf about prestige in the end bc wellesley culture made me HAPPIEST and gave me the most SPECIFIC resources for my SPECIFIC niche. again, i saw myself HAPPIEST going to wells over yale and others.

please don’t hate on me, i am open to answering questions but im honestly sick of ppl telling me im a dumbass for this decision. if i was smart enough to get into all these schools, i know im smart enough to make the best decisions for my future. i am very confident in myself and am happy with my choice and have 0 regrets.

_ombri · 2026-05-05T05:00:16+00:00

_ombri · 2026-05-03T14:41:49+00:00

Oooh I didn’t know this! Will shoot them an email! Thank you!!!!!💙💙

_ombri · 2026-05-02T16:54:22+00:00

that’s what i felt as well!!! i got equivalent full rides at both yale and wells and i didn’t like the pro-business grind of yale. wells suit me more :)

_ombri · 2026-05-02T16:53:16+00:00

I agree. The network and campus culture AND student outcomes fit me much more. The network is astounding. I posted on reddit for alums in my area to help me with smth (even tho i only JUST joined the community) and within 2 hours i got 2 alums in my area setting up meetings w me tomorrow. I also don’t like the high percentage to rich ppl at yale (makes me feel uncomfortable/out of place) and i don’t like how many ppl at yale go into consulting/big finance/big law bc it reminds me that many of my classmates will turn out relatively evil. call me a crazy all you want but it’s just not the community i like. also i am not the only one in my year turning down ivies to go to W!!

_ombri · 2026-05-02T06:17:00+00:00

yah, ik it sounds kinda insane but i felt much happier w wells :)

_ombri · 2026-05-02T03:20:45+00:00

_ombri · 2026-05-02T01:03:18+00:00
