Hello everyone! I’m really excited this week because I finally declared my major! I absolutely didn’t come to Wellesley thinking that I would be a physics major, but here we are. Usually, the deadline to declare a major at Wellesley is in March of your sophomore year. Because I want to study abroad though, I had to declare my major…

It’s Spooky Season…Back to School
Hi all, Let’s talk about everything school this week: classes, majors and how to manage all of it! I like to think I have a bit of a unique perspective with being abroad and being able to get a taste of another university’s academic expectations after being so used to those at Wellesley. For those who may not know, I…
Sophomore Fall
This week, I’m updating on where I am academically as a Wellesley sophomore. Declaring your major is the major part (see what I did there) of sophomore year at Wellesley! At Wellesley, you can major, double major, or major and minor. If you plan to study abroad in your junior year, then as a sophomore you’d have to declare your…
Since we last spoke
Happy November, everyone! Last week I wrote an open letter to all of you applying early decision, which I hope proved helpful and/or reassuring to a few of you.

Sept 24 : (Sopho)more work to do

(view from my dorm on the fifth floor of Tower… yea, I get to see this every night.) Wellesley, you overwhelm me.…
Reevaluation and Registration
Before I get to the more serious stuff, I thought I’d tell you about my halloween. I’m not the biggest fan of halloween — I haven’t ever really enjoyed it in the past, and didn’t think I would this year either. But I ended up going to the Rocky Horror Picture Show “viewing” on Wednesday and it was a lot…
Major Happenings!
So I’m in the BEST mood! Something to know about Wellesley women: scratching something of the To-Do list makes us VERY happy. I just sent my major declaration form to the Psychology Department chair, who will approve it (he told me so!) and sent it to my major advisor, who will also approve it. So, by this time tomorrow, I…
Moms and Advisors
I’m giddy from the best care package ever!!! I won’t tell you guys exactly what my mom sent, but just know that Godiva and Dillard’s (ya’ll Southerners know what that is) were involved. My advice to parents – be creative, and throw something in for the roommates. Parents: Care packages don't stop after first year. From Godiva.com Anyway, that lovely…
