<p>and I’m a reject…</p>
<p>so I can log in, but it just takes me to the Williams HR/Student System page. I don’t have a letter or any information either way. Is this a glitch or something? I’m so confused.</p>
<p>The home page just has a search thing. So confusing.</p>
<p>^same… 10char</p>
<p>click in the self service link and then to the application status link. the decision button is at the bottom. waitlisted…</p>
<p>Yes! I got accepted! I feel so blessed. Now I have to chose between Williams, Bowdoin, and Emory among other schools. Good luck to the rest of you, I know we all will go on to great colleges and do great things! ;D</p>

<p>I can’t understand why my kid was waitlisted at Williams. He did all of his other essays, and waited until the last possible night to do the Williams one. </p>
<p>Here it is, answering the mysterious prompt “You are looking through a window at a scene that is important to you, tell us what you see,” or something of that nature:</p>
<pre><code>I am looking through a window, and I see a sad little boy. The boy is crying, sobbing into his pillow in his bedroom. There are damp little kleenex tissues all around him; he has been crying all day and he wont come out of his room.
Dont you feel sad for the little boy? I do, because the little boy is me. He has been rejected by Williams College and it has broken his heart. He is a very troubled little boy because all of his friends have been accepted by other colleges and have gone away. He is alone now, alone with his stuffed animals. He has not showered in days and his hair hangs down uncombed. His eyes are red and he has a pitiful sniffle, a sniffle that should only be heard from the lowliest animal. His guitar leans in the corner, a reminder of better days. It is of no use to him now because he will never play it again. It reminds him of his faraway, naive past. He cries, can you hear him? His little lambie toy next to his head is wet with tears, it may never dry out ever again.
John, his mother yells from outside the door, we made a mistake! Do you hear me, we were wrong! The envelopes were mixed up! You were rejected by Harvard, Amherst, Yale, Princeton, Cornell, Rice, Emory, Penn State, Bowdoin, Georgetown, Vanderbilt, Brown, Dartmouth, Duke, West Point, Annapolis, Berkeley, Stanford, the Sorbonne, Oxford, Columbia, and that Mormon school, whats it called, oh yeah, Brigham Young! But Williams accepted you!
They accepted me?
Yes, Williams is the only one!
The only one! Yay! But…
But what?
Can you call the cops, mom, theres a really strange looking guy looking at me outside my window!
</code></pre>
<p>I mean, what’s wrong with that essay?!?!??!?!</p>
<p>^ROFL, I complete believe a ■■■■■ actually spent the time to write that essay.</p>
<p>cannot believe* </p>
<p>oops :D</p>
<p>Rejected, understandable, I’m not a great fit. One of the coaches had sent me a few emails that had me going though, frustrated by that, understand the williams decision. </p>
