Where were you accepted, wait listed and rejected? (Class of 2018)

Applying to College

<p>Hi guys! So now that most decisions are out, I'm curious where people got accepted, waitlisted and rejected from!! I guess you can just list them, and add any information if you feel that its necessary =)
Congrats to everyone! </p>

<p>So here's where I got in:
Haverford
Wesleyan
Brandeis
Gettysburg (safety)
St. Lawrence (safety)
SUNY Binghamton (safety) - I got into the Scholars Program and Freshman year research program
SUNY Geneseo (safety) - I'm going to hear from the Davidson Fellows (Honor Program) soon
SUNY Stony Brook (safety) - I got into the Honors Program</p>

<p>Waitlisted:
Swarthmore (very surprised since its more selective the schools I got rejected from - though obviously not by much, only like 4%)
Cornell</p>

<p>Rejected:
Tufts (I'm pretty disappointed. Tufts was one of my top choices and I thought this was one of my strongest applications regarding the supplement essays and interview)
Williams (I'm not surprised - I never had the chance to get an interview and that makes a difference)</p>

<p>Thinking about it now, I applied to a load of schools that I knew I would have a pretty big change of getting accepted to. Overall though I'm happy with where I got accepted and will most likely end up at either Haverford or Wesleyan (or possibly Geneseo because if I get into the honors program I would get a scholarship - though I get enough need based aid to allow me to attend a private school paying only a few thousand more a year than a SUNY school). Its going to be a tough decision to make!</p>

<p>I think the last thread like this was moved or deleted, but I want to play. This kind of info interests me as well. Can we just list GPA and scores for rough chances?</p>

<p>UC Davis - in
UC Irvine - in
UC Los Angeles - in
UC Berkeley - in (Spring)
UC San Diego - in

<p>No. Williams only offers “interviews” during the summer before an applicant’s senior year; they are informative only and have no bearing on the admissions decision. From the Williams website:</p>

<p>“While we are happy to speak with rising high school seniors during the summer, such conversations are entirely non-evaluative and play absolutely no part in our admission decisions. To learn more about scheduling time to speak with an admission officer, please contact…”</p>

<p><a href=“Visit Campus – Admission & Financial Aid”>http://admission.williams.edu/visit/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>The most recently available Williams Common Data Set (2012-2013) indicated that interviews are “Not Considered” in the admissions decision.</p>

<p>Your rejection from Williams had nothing to do with the fact that you didn’t have a Williams interview.</p>
