Wellesley College Q&A
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
I am finally giving you guys a video that you have been asking for, which is a Wellesley College Q and A. So I compiled a list of questions that have people have asked me in the comments of my past videos. So I'm gonna be answered all those questions here today. So this video is gonna be specific to Wellesley in terms of like, if you're interested in coming, but you haven't yet committed and like things you might want to know before deciding whether or not you want to come here. If you guys want me to, I could make a separate video that are more like once you're admitted and like questions that you get them so like things that are specific to classes or like stuff like that. Those video might be a little bit long, so I'll leave the list of all the questions I'm answering in the description box below, so that you could skip to those parts of the video. If you'd like to come without further ado, let's get on with the video. The very first question is, what is Wellesley College? And why's it special Wellesley College, one of the most prestigious and highly respected institutions of higher education in the country? Ways Long story short. We are known for our great education, beautiful campus, but probably most commonly back that Hillary Clinton attended and graduated here. Okay, so the question that I get asked the most, like both like in my videos and like in person, when I'm talking to people when I'm talking about Wellesley is Kobe is How do you mean, boys? Well, I've got news for you while the college It's not a black hole. Oh, what boys do not just disappear the minute faced up onto this campus, right? So, like, you could have boys here, boys could be on campus in your classes. If you want to meet boys off campus, there are a couple of ways you can do for Wells. He provides three different ways to get off campus and out of here we have a free shuttle Dan that takes us to Bassam in Poland, which are to school Dallas. The next question is, how diverse is Wellesley? Well, let's look at the breakdown, shall we? So, Wells. So what's in Wellesley like, What can we do here? So there's like this small little pathway on the east side of campus that takes us right into this Long Street. Alf Estrada and, like a bunch of other leg places to eat and stuff like that can be a little bit pricey, caters to the town of Wellesley, but they exist on There's also like nail salons and bookstores and, like stuff like that, Um, and so if you need something like really quickly, you can run, too, like CD s you can run to like, There's a book store that sells a lot of like Q little small gift thing you. So if you don't want to go all in to Boston, that is an alternative that we have here. How do you survive winter in Boston? This is a really good question. Another thing I'm I didn't know before coming before I came here is that you should buy coats and stuff like that in the places where you are going to be experiencing these extreme weather's, which means that you shouldn't buy your coat until you come to Boston. When you get here instead of getting it, like buying it at home, make sure that you check the labels when you like start to buy them, and that it says that it's something waterproof and made for extreme weather because that's gonna be important. My last piece of advice is like some warm beverages that's like a simple thing that you could do was like While you're keeping your outside warm with all your clothing, you can keep your insides warm, too, with like a nice hot chocolate for coffee or tea or leg. Wellesley is not an easy place to study it, meaning the crosses are going to be hard because that's what we're trying to like, do you know? So if you're really, really struggling, how can you find help? Wellesley has tons of resource is so that they can help students thrive. They don't want you to feel that's not their gold. So they're like people who specifically help you write your essays and, like, proof, read and edit and stuff like that. All the tutors, for the most part, are Wellesley students who have taken the courses that you would be like needing help in, um, and they know what they're doing. Resource is mental health is extremely important here. Like we really want to make sure that everyone is in a good place at all times, even if you're not in the best of places. We want everyone to know that like we care and like, we want you to be doing okay. Like it's a really common resource that a lot of students use. If our dorms on campus vary a lot in terms of size, in terms of like age in terms of location and so pending on where you are, you'll get some pros and cons. When you first come here in the first year, you don't get to choose which dorm you live in. If you live on East Side, you might live in a bigger room, and they're like, really nice and spacious, but it's super far away from everything else on campus and the places that you might go to the most during your day. Your grooms are probably gonna be a lot smaller, but you're close to all of these places, so it really depends on what you want. If you're an athlete, you probably want to be on West Side because you're closest to the athletic center. If you are like a stem major or something that you might wanna live on East Side because you're pretty close to the science center, yeah, there's a lot of different places to live on campus there some dorms that I still haven't seen. How many A's you could get in a class, which means that there could be 10 people all doing the same work and putting in the same amount of work and getting the same grades and stuff like that. That's a That's a good thing that we have. If you have any more questions you like me to answer in a future video, please let me know in the comments below.
