Hey everyone! I scanned the Williams College forums but couldn’t find an ED thread, so I decided to create one.
Anyone with ED related questions and queries should feel free to ask.
Also, does anyone know how long it takes for the portal to be assigned?
Hey! I’m applying ED! Who else is?
Welcome to College Confidential and good luck to ED applicants!
Regarding essay topics, recently heard from another schools counsellor that sports topic essays are over done unless its a really powerful story.
My daughter just sent her ED application in yesterday… the waiting begins.
@DecYet Hey! Would you mind updating me when the portal email gets to you? I applied today and I have no idea when to expect the portal. Thanks!
anyone else a sports recruit applying ED
@WilliamsBoi I submitted my ED application on Nov 9 and just received my portal email today, so it takes about 3 days!
@ohwellwhatever Hey! Thank you for your reply. I got my portal around 2 days ago. I guess I should have posted or something. And good luck !!
Are the decisions more likely to come out on Dec 6 or Dec 13?
My daughter is an athletic recruit.
It could be Dec 6 since it typically is released on a Friday the first or second week of December.
Matched through QB! Any fellow QB matches to Williams out there? (Have only found 1 other QB finalist that matched with Williams)
Congrats on the match! Seems as if we won’t hear back until next Friday, as they have just updated the award letter date on the CSS profile to the 13th. Does anybody know if fin aid is ever awarded after the admissions release date? My guess is that both admission and finaid are released together…
Just saw the award date on CSS. Can anybody confirm if this means we get the admissions decision earlier? As far as I know, most colleges release admission decision first, fin aid later.
I have a feeling Williams releases fin aid and decisions at the same time. But I’m hoping for all of our sakes that decisions come out Friday and fin aid will simply take longer :(!!
Lol I ED’d to Amherst and knowin that we also gotta probably gotta wait another week sucks even though they haven’t told us yet that we gotta wait
The Admissions and Financial Aid teams are very well coordinated in general so it makes sense to release the news at the same time.
When are the results for ED out?
