Any RDers out there still hanging on...

<p>I am still waiting...and waiting...and, oh yeah, waiting.
I have only heard from 1 of 7 schools!! I am checking the mail every day like an idiot, and nothing has come!</p>

<p>I check every day as well, i hate that early write policy!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>of course, if i would have gotten one i wouldn't mind it at all ;)</p>

<p>and yes; the netherlands is often called holland!</p>

<p>Applied to 12, only heard from 2. This waiting is horrible--every day I'm expecting something from a college. It's so bad when there's nothing there for me!! I suppose a rejection would be worse...</p>

<p>haha, yeah everyday i open the mail box and the first thing I think is "Darn, there are no big envelopes" and then I freak out and think "God i hope there isn't a tiny envelope" (ie rejection letter) . And then I waste the next hour on CC thinking it will make me feel better.
LOL
I guess we are all in the same boat.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone
Williams College seems amazing, I hope we all get in ;) :)</p>

<p>hansel... omg.. u just described my exact life these past days haha</p>

<p>Haha, me too!!!!</p>

<p>Haha yeah, even though I know I won't be getting anything I rustle through the mail impatiently every day. April 1st seems so far away.</p>

<p>I honestly can't believe that there's only a few days left before letters come. It seems like for the past month and a half, I've been frantically checking the mail but now that it's really getting down to it, I'm surprisingly calm... it's actually quite odd. I'm pretty sure it's abnormal.</p>

<p>I'm sure I'll be uber nervous come April and this will only last a week or so but right now, I'm pretty much just mellow.</p>

<p>^^ Lucky you...I'm so anxious its almost unbearable.</p>

<p>Just reading some posts from last year around 3/38. Seems like the acceptance emails went out first, then the flood of rejections/waitlists hit. My blackboard id doesn't work--don't feel too confident right now. Preparing for reject.</p>

<p>I heard a rumor that students applying from high schools where many people are applying to Williams will not get early writes. So can any of you lucky early write people dissprove that? Do any of you people who still haven't heard go to school with lots of people applying? best of luck!</p>

<p>board seems quiet lately....end of the early writes?</p>

<p>Yankeeboy, my guidance counselor called just yesterday...just because your blackboard id doesn't work right now doesn't mean anything YET. They're still making decisions...and sending them out as they decide. All will be mailed by March 29. Don't fret just yet (hey that rhymed)</p>

<p>and to reply to xanadu...I don't know how much truth there is to that, because my friend got an early write and there are a considerable number of people from my school who applied...but we're local people, I don't know if that has anything to do with it...?</p>

<p>bleh from CT and i havent gotten anything</p>

<p>i was wondering tho...i had an issue with them receiving all my materials...Williams registered they had my completed file very late into the admissions process...would that have any impact in me getting a likely letter?</p>

<p>^^ you mean an early write? Well, if they didn't have all of your stuff in time, then maybe..</p>

<p>If my parents sent in my financial forms on 3/1 (that was the deadline...<em>shake head</em> parents), could that be a factor in my decision not coming out yet?</p>

No I got an early write even though there are about 10 people applying from my high school..I haven't asked them if they got early writes too though. Good luck, in any case :o)</p>

<p>I've heard from Williams, but I have 7 other schools pending. And I went through this the early round too, so it's like walking through limbo for the second time for me.</p>

<p>haha yea...my routine: check mail, check yahoo, check aol, go on CC... repeat a LOT of times.</p>

<p>mines a little different... check mail, check aol, check facebook, check myspace, go on CC.. and repeat. haha</p>
