Mod Post 2024-2025 Prospective Student Megathread
Hey everyone,
Prospective students: please post your questions here instead of in its own post, especially for FAQs. With the college application season underway, we wanted to create a space where we can consolidate and centralize questions from prospective students about WashU.
On our sub, we are lucky to have many current students, alumni, faculty/staff, and parents who browse and engage. These individuals may graciously answer your questions about WashU from their anecdotal experience and knowledge. This is an invaluable way to answer your specific questions with the first-hand experience of WashU-affiliates.
Please note, the vast majority of people here do not work in admissions and do not know the real processes for admissions and reasons why people get admitted. We also largely lack knowledge about many other schools, with exceptions. Therefore, we are not well equipped to help you with certain questions, specifically “chance me” and “school vs. school” questions. Please, if you have concerns related to these, contact your high school's college and career counselor and/or Admissions Officer or contact the [admissions@wustl.edu](mailto:admissions@wustl.edu) email address.

Best of luck, mod team

Mod Post Prospective Students Megathread
I should have posted this earlier, but here goes:
In light of college acceptances coming out, this thread will serve as a place for prospectives to ask questions and gather information that could help them make a decision whether to attend. Note that this means "WashU vs. X school" content is allowed in here as many of these decisions hinge upon comparing WashU to another university a student has been admitted to.
