r/Denison

Has anyone seen or heard anything from Denison about their waitlist? I’ve tried looking up anything about it and I’ve gotten radio silence. Just wondering if anyone has gotten accepted off of it yet and if I don’t have a chance.

I’ve done some independent work on my own (like interviews, essays, and research reports) outside of school, and I was wondering if there’s any way to submit or include those in my application.

Is there a specific section for that, or should I upload them as additional materials somewhere?

Greetings! I am a prospective transfer student to Denison. I graduated from a high school with a graduating class of 30, so when I chose schools I didn’t want to choose too big or too small. So I chose my current school which I thought would be a healthy middle ground at 10,000. Turns out it is wayyyyyy too big. Luckily, Denison is much smaller. I want a school where I can hang out with the same people on a regular basis. Like I could eat breakfast, lunch and dinner with the same people and see them in the hallways, like a place would I would for sure able to see my friends every day. Is that true to your experience at Denison? Would that be possible at Denison’s are people generally looking for new friends even if the campus is already settled? Am I likely to face an uphill battle and have a difficult time making new friends as a transfer student? How is the campus for neurodivergent and queer people? To those who transferred in, how was your experience with the Denison transfer support network, like the orientation thing they do? Do you have any advice for a transfer students trying to make new friends? Are any clubs particularly active and good to meet new people? I would greatly appreciate any responses, and any insight would’ve helpful.

Thinking of applying to Denison. I am on the fence about Greek life. I am social but not a huge partier and I love my sleep.

I am worried since there are no Greek houses that all the parties are then happening in the dorms and apartments so it might be hard to get good sleep.

Where do the parties happen at Denison?

Is there a lot of partying going on until late at night in the dorms many nights a week?

Where do the sororities/frats meet and do other activities together outside of parties?
