How does Williams notify RD applicants?

<p>Do they email applicants with a link to a decision portal? Or do you log into the portal where you look to see if your materials have been received?</p>

<p>You have to log into the portal you already know, at that time insetead of saying “show recived materials” it would say “show my decision”… Good luck!</p>

<p>Have they told anyone WHEN they will post regular decisions?</p>

<p>Hopefully we will find out monday that would be awesome</p>

<p>What is the link for the portal? I lost the web address…</p>

<p>It’s https: // myApplication . williams . edu</p>

<p>Without the spaces. I’m not sure if College Confidential blocks websites.</p>

<p>Williams hasn’t announced anything, but I think most of us are expecting the middle of next week. Nervous!</p>

<p>Also, someone made a point in the Amherst forum that liberal arts schools try to release decisions before Ivies, cos that’s their competition. But most Ivies are releasing decisions on Wednesday, perhaps it’ll be the same time as the Ivies.
I’d choose Williams over any of the Ivies, though.</p>

<p>Is it just me? I can’t log on to my williams app…
I used “forgot password” but it still says wrong ID and/or password when I type in the characters/numbers the website gives me…</p>

<p>I had that problem too. If you’re referring to the page with the ‘Oracle People Soft’ thing after you do ‘Forgot Password?,’ then just click whatever link there is on that page and then it’ll redirect you to getting a new password. :)</p>

<p>Here! this link says decisions will be released on the first week of April [Admissions</a> – Williams College| First-Year Applicants Guidelines and Deadlines](<a href=“http://admission.williams.edu/apply/firstyear/deadlines]Admissions”>Financial Aid Deadlines – Admission & Financial Aid) I read some where that I will be April 1 I think that´s the date because last year it was different wich mean that they unpdated it for this year!</p>

<p>My son was admitted a couple weeks back via a “likely” letter. An email followed a day or two later. I’d imagine that something similar will occur for the bulk of the RD applicants, since the structure is in place. So check your “snail mail” mailbox AND your email account every day!</p>

<p>It’s not about Oracle page… I just can’t log on to the website. If I press the log on button, it still gets me to the log on page… Should I contact the office?</p>

<p>April 1st???wow thats late</p>

<p>

I don’t think they update that page - I think it is just meant as a guideline for release dates. Students started receiving decisons on 3/30 last year (<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/williams-college/894516-official-williams-rd-decisions-2014-a.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/williams-college/894516-official-williams-rd-decisions-2014-a.html&lt;/a&gt;). I would think that we would hear sometime early/mid next week.</p>

<p>Thanks for the updates. We’re patiently waiting here in WA State.</p>

<p>To be honest, I wish that they would just a) be clear about it and b) get it over with. If they’re going to post it online, they should make it clear when (I’ve heard online from other schools, and most of them gave far more notice in terms of date & time). Likewise, if they are instead sending out letters so that we might get them BEFORE a presumable online notification on Friday, I wish they’d make that known too. And above all, if it’s true that we won’t know until Friday, I wish that wasn’t the case, lol. I’ve applied to eight different schools, and I have heard from all of them except Williams and one other (which I’ll hear from on Wednesday); plus, I originally applied ED to Williams and got deferred to RD, so even though my chances of being accepted are at this point pretty slim, I still really really want to know before Friday lol! :)</p>

<p>April 1st is the notification date: [Admissions</a> – Williams College| First-Year Regular Decision](<a href=“http://admission.williams.edu/apply/firstyear/regulardecision]Admissions”>http://admission.williams.edu/apply/firstyear/regulardecision)</p>

<p>Not sure if that means email or snail mail.</p>

<p>^It ight be April 1, but most schools rarely update the dates on their admission websites. April 1 is the date that all schools have decisions out by, but most will release earlier. I would expect earlier than 4/1 this year.</p>

<p>tjmaz1, D also applied to a similar number of schools & Williams is the last one we’re waiting on. I called the school today, and was told that the yeah or nay email is going out sometime this week, to be followed by hard copy on the following. In the mean time, we all patiently wait…best to everyone! )=D</p>

<p>@oopamloopa - so they told you that the first way we will hear our decisions is through an email? Gah… I am still waiting on Williams, Brown, and Duke… I am so very impatient!!</p>

<p>Yes, madilevi. Best to you in this process! We have since gotten notice that an email is suppose to be arriving tomorrow (Weds - 3/30) by 5PM (EST). Good luck to everyone! :)</p>
