Early Write for Class of 2012!

<p>Is it really? Haha, I had the impression that it was purple-which, as piratemonkey says, would be pretty cool.</p>

<p>But it is a big envelope, so at this point if I got one it'd be a dead giveaway, wouldn't it?</p>

<p>wow, totally unexpected but just got one today-looks like they do do it in waves so don't worry if you havent got one yet</p>

<p>Congratulations! :) </p>

<p>And awesomesauce to the news that there are several waves.</p>

<p>congrats to all !
one question,
do they send EW both by mail and by Email?</p>

<p>All admissions decisions come by mail.</p>

<p>Pirate-, from what I can tell no international student has received early writes or likely letters, in any of the LAC's I'm interested in.
So what's the point of thinking about EW if internationals don't get them?</p>

<p>Does anyone know if Williams sends EW to overseas students?</p>

<p>Yeah it seems like no internationals on this board have received EWs but I mean, how many of us are here? I know international kids who have gotten EWs from other US schools so maybe there just don't happen to be any internationals here that have gotten one - quite a likely possibility since not that many kids get EDs anyways. </p>

<p>Or maybe they'll send the EWs to internationals in this new wave..... </p>

<p>I want to call the admissions office and ask them but i thought it might seem a bit presumptuous - plus i doubt i'll get one even if they do send them to internationals.</p>

<p>i just got in early write....very surprised</p>

<p>whoaa i got my letter today! hahaha</p>

<p>didnt even know this existed xD</p>

<p>To everyone who has received an early write (congrats, btw!), how many other people from your school have applied to Williams?</p>

<p>so many people have got EWs!!!!!!
congrats~~
i'm an international applicant and i am not sure if i could get in, not to say about EW</p>

<p>I'm in the same situation Diablo. </p>

<p>To those who got early writes, did you kind of expect to get into Williams and are aiming for HYP or were you totally shocked to get one?</p>

<p>I was really really shocked. I didn't expect to get in let alone get in early. I didn't believe my mom when she told me (she told me when i was doing an overnight at another school), I she confused williams with some other school. i didn't believe her until i saw that purple folder with my own eyes.i applied to williams on a whim, because i liked it but i didn't think i had a chance. my guidance counselor didn't even believe me lol. anyway yeah i did apply to yale but don't really count on getting in there, but now you never know.</p>

<p>wow that's really cool sgtpepper - congrats! And btw Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club is one of my favourite Beatles songs :) The Beatles are just amazing in general though....</p>

<p>does anyone know what day williams will send out all RD decisions?</p>

<p>Quoting from the website: "Decision letters are mailed the first week of April."</p>

<p>thanks hktk!</p>

<p>haha thanks pirate monkey. and yes the beatles are amazing. i wrote my essay about them lol. i guess it helped.</p>

<p>PirateMonkey...I was totally surprised. I applied to Williams because my mom told me that there was NO WAY she was paying out of state tuition unless it was for an amazing school; I don't really want to stay in VA so I applied to a bunch of schools out of state that were, IMO, out of my league. Williams was at the top of that list, because not only was it out of state and amazing, but it also seemed like a place I'd actually like to go. I am optimistic, so I was really HOPING to get in, but I honestly wasn't sure I would at all and wouldn't have bet on an early write in 1000 years (especially because I didn't know that system existed.) So yeah, getting that big purple folder was probably THE biggest surprise of my life so far. (I'm not quite sure what that says about my life in general...)</p>

<p>wow seni08, that's really cool. Congratulations!</p>
