Confirmation or ID?

<p>Did anyone get an e-mail confirming their application to Williams from Williams College (not the common app email)? Did anyone get a student ID or something similar to what other universities do?</p>

<p>I ask because I have not received anything from Williams since I have applied.</p>

<p>I got some kind of ID number in the mail - it's a little purple card with a cow on it :)</p>

<p>me too. i got an ID number</p>

<p>So what are we gonna do with that ID?</p>

<p>that's the thing... they said just to include it on any other e-mails/letters to Williams. I guess it makes it easier for them to access your files.</p>

<p>All I received was a prospectus. Isn't it high time they sent the missing materials notifications?</p>

<p>williams is the only school that i applied to that i can't access some on-line account/status thing.</p>

<p>The number is your ID if you are accepted as well.</p>

<p>What should I do if I misplaced the letter they sent with the ID number?</p>

<p>You could call/email the Admission Office, let them know you no longer have it, and ask that they either resend it or let you know what it is over the phone/in an email response. Most people in Admission are happy to help in whatever way they can.</p>

<p>don't sweat the ID's useless til you're accepted anyway.</p>

<p>What if you don't have it after you're accepted?
Because I just got in early-write, so if that number is important...
I don't think I ever got a little purple cow card, or if I did, it was mixed up with all of the other college mail.</p>

<p>If you ask (call or email) the Admission Office, they should be able to let you know what it is. Since it's your student ID #, it will be used for just about everything you officially do at Williams.</p>
