Congrats! You don’t have to answer this but I’m curious as to whether she’ll take the offer.
She will seriously consider the offer.
Did you guys get the financial aid offer yet? We had to correct a mistake so we have not received ours yet.
Yes, we did.

He sorry if I am bothering you. Did she get off on Thursday or Wednesday? And were you able get any information about if they are going to accept more students off the waitlist?
She received the admission offer on Wednesday. She has no information on any additional offer.
Okay thanks for answering. Btw is she international or domestic?
Hello sorry for bothering you. But is your child international or domestic?
She is domestic and most likely going to take the offer.
Did your kid end up taking the offer?

She’s not taking the offer.
Has anyone figured out room assignments yet?
Unless the process has changed in the last few years, first year students are assigned a roommate and dorm/room. There was no choice. Worked out well for my son who ended up rooming with his first year roommate sophomore year. You can request after the first year who you room with and there is a lotto type system for choice of dorm. Congrats on your acceptance!
Have a child at Amherst. Freshmen are still randomly assigned housing on the first-year quad and a roommate.
For the past two years they did adopt a lotto system for non-freshmen because it was easier to do that when housing situations were uncertain due to COVID. However, now they have shifted towards a housing selection system for non-freshmen that closely mirrors the housing selection system they had before COVID. Under the new selection system, students within each graduating class are randomly assigned a number within their graduating class (with seniors all receiving lower numbers than juniors and all juniors receiving lower numbers than sophomores). There is a week of housing selection and each day, from 5 PM to 10 PM, and each 10 minutes, the housing portal opens up to another 15 students, who can then select their exact room via the housing portal. Students can join room groups with another student or students whom with they wish to be roommates, but the person with the earlier number has to wait for the person with the later number to select their double.
