<p>Congratulations! You may not have had perfect scores, but you have an incredibly impressive record overall. Williams (or Rice) will be fortunate to have you as a student.</p>
<p>Owlie, I generally hesitate to offer "chances" but I was confident two months ago that you'd get an offer from Williams. My son's a recent graduate and his experience was extremely positive. He'd do it again in a heartbeat.</p>
<p>I'm sure you'll have some other attractive options as well, but from the way you describe yourself I'd think you and Williams would be a good fit. Congratulations!</p>
<p>i'm not expecting a likely letter but if they were to send one to an international applicant do you think they would sent it regular mail or do something by e-mail?</p>
<p>I just got my acceptance letter from Williams yesterday! It was the best surprise ever! I really like this early write system. (I think that's what they call it)</p>
<p>Congratulations to all early-write (and regular-write) acceptees -- the Purple Valley is a special place. If you choose to go, enjoy your time there -- it'll fly by if you take advantage of all the opportunities offered.</p>
<p>Are you sure you got acceptances? My friend who is writing my peer rec just called Williams because he was worried it was too late. They said they weren't even sending out acceptances yet.</p>
