We took a tour of Wilson College (http://www.wilson.edu/) on February 5 and it was rainy, cloudy, and windy. But thankfully it didn’t rain during the tour. Its a really nice place (campus) and I would fit in well here. The admissions lady told us a lot about other girls who had switched to Wilson from their previous schools because they wanted more of that at home feeling and for the equestrian center to be on campus. It’s a women’s college and has many traditions and everyone-liking-everyone look. We met the equestrian program director, Dr. Tukey and he was super calm and they said he’s always like this to the point its weird. The barn was nice and the jumping arena was great. Also the dorm rooms are huge! The best part about them is your allowed certain pets and they have GUINEA PIG PARTIES!. Everyone gets together with theirs and has races down the hallways! Oh also with the SAT… They don’t look into it that much if you have above a 3.0 GPA, has taken college prep courses, and are involved in many other activities. The admissions lady recommended a site that tells about many scholarships that I might be accepted into that we haven’t heard of before. Wilson offers learning resource center with tutoring and other support like a writing lab that can teach and edit your essays. Anyway, Wilson was great and had a good campus with most of the buildings being old (established in 1869) but well-built.
