Williams RD applicants - class of 2021

rejected

Yup, rejections came last, and the blow comes. Oh well. Onwards.

Rejected!!! <3

Ayyyy rejected

Rejected, from Mass

Woo another rejection…

There go the rejections. First one this year, likely many more to come, hopefully not too many.

Rejected, now I can get back to merch shopping for Bucknell!

Rejected, but got into Notre Dame and WashU so far so meh , kinda disappointed though williams was one of my top choices.

Got an email to check my portal about 50 minutes ago. Waitlisted.

They said “The total number of students on the waiting list each year has ranged between 350 and 600. In the past five years, 30 students have been admitted from the waiting list, on average.” Congrats to anyone who got in!

WAITLISTED!! IM ACTUALLY HAPPY ABOUT IT

2nd waitlist along with Middlebury

@MeHowPL Wtf, didn’t you go to Windows on Williams? I thought WoW attendees have pretty much a guaranteed acceptance for Williams College.

@kmissmoo mine says

“If the Admission Committee is able to add to the Class of 2021, we will select only from among those waiting list candidates who have requested further consideration. If you want to remain on our active waiting list, please indicate your interest here no later than May 1. Please do not feel pressured to respond immediately—we do not rank students on the waiting list based on when they submit the form.”

Waitlisted… disappointed but not devastatwe (was expecting a rejection). It sucks because I was just waitlisted at Middlebury, too. Now I have to wait for Vassar!

Strange that there are not that many acceptances here, “To be one of the 1,200 students selected for admission is no small feat; you should be extremely proud of the work you’ve done. That work made you stand out among the 8,500 candidates in our applicant pool this year, one of the most talented in the school’s history.”

@highsch00lstress Thanks! I was so nervous that I totally skipped that!

I’m trying to figure out how I’m waitlisted when I never completed an application lol :)). I applied QB, so I had my QB app forwarded but I had to fill out a Common App, and I gave up halfway because I never saw myself going to Williams so I was expecting a rejection straight-up lol. I guess that QB essay got them convinced about something…

Congrats to everyone who got in, and for those who didn’t it will all work out in the end, don’t worry you’ll end up somewhere great!! :smiley:

For those who were accepted do u have more than 3 check marks for financial aid or do u guys have like 9-10 check marks so like 9-10 documents showing up

Anyone able to post the rejection letter?
