<p>Less than 500 people applied at ED and they accepted more than one third of the freshman class of 2016 :)</p>
<p>Its kinda crazy… that you get accepted at Oxford University but you get deferred by Amherst College. A whole new level of respect for this institution…wow 
Congrats everyone !! 
you all sooo deserved it and Im happy you guys got in :)</p>
<p>Deferred. I cried so much but I’m composed enough to post now, after hanging with friends and drowning myself in milkshakes, lol :P</p>
<p>Congratulations to everyone accepted, I’m so happy for you!!! Great job guys!! I’m still pursuing Amherst as my first choice, and I really really hope I can join you guys in the fall.
If anyone has any info on deferred admission I would really appreciate it. </p>
<p>Thanks, and congratz!!!</p>
<p>congratulations to everyone accepted!</p>
<p>i was deferred also. and i also have been using ice cream therapy to try and soothe myself lol. </p>
<p>does anybody know the percentage of deferred students that are usually admitted regular decision?</p>
<p>congratulations to everyone accepted !
i am deferred.i don’t know what to do right now. does anybody know how to get accepted after being deferred?</p>
<p>Ahtsaa and ctgrl: Barrage them with additional info, not so much to improve your application but to show them how much you LOVE AMHERST and WANT IT. Have your favorite teacher write an additional letter telling them they made a BIG MISTAKE. Don’t give up. Show Chutzpah.</p>
<p>shrages, how do I give them additional info? Do I simply email them with an attachment?</p>
<p>i just farted hehehehehe!!!</p>
