@romeo521 confused by your post as I am sure others are too. Wasn’t aware of any ability to get into Swarthmore early other than ED 1 , ED 2 which is binding and you would have needed to retract your other applications. At this point i would LOVE THE SCHOOL THAT LOVES YOU BACK(SWARTHMORE) AN AMAZING SCHOOL AND forget about trying to analyze why you didn’t get into other schools. honestly wouldn’t it be great for all schools to love you back and than you get to reject them, but that is not the case with College admissions. Be happy and proud of your admission to a highly selective school like Swarthmore and don’t waste precious time on trying to figure out why you didnt get into certain schools.
My understanding is that Swarthmore sends out a few “early writes” like Williams. These are simply regular decision acceptances that are sent out a few weeks early to show special interest in the students.
Admitted off the wait list today. Sent in a letter of continued interest on March 28th.
