Williams Supplement

<p>Does anyone know approx. when it will come out? Do you think it will be the window prompt again? It's been that since the 2008-2009 season, I believe.</p>

<p>It’s not released on the common app website, but Williams does have a link to it on their admissions page.

<p>That’s last years. (It says in the top right corner.)</p>

<p>Sorry, I didn’t notice that.</p>

<p>@ flaoser, I did the same thing…and then wrote an essay on it :-/</p>

<p>I was just at a Williams info session a couple of weeks ago and they specifically referred to the “Window Essay” as one that keeps coming back. So, if that’s what you wrote on, I’d say the odds are good you’ll be able to use it.</p>

<p>yayyyyy I already wrote it, I’m soooo glad it’ll be worth it :). What did they say about the essay?? Anything surprising or super important?</p>

<p>They said to think about four things as you write your essays:</p>

<p>1) Who am I?
2) Where do I come from?
3) What do I think about?
4) Why do I do the things I do?</p>

<p>In reference to the last one, the presenter mentioned how the kind of student who has the qualifications to get into Williams is not typical. What drives you to achieve the things you’ve achieved?</p>

<p>So, that’s what they said, for whatever it’s worth.</p>

<p>Thanks so much! It’s good to know that, but kinda hard to get that into 300 words…^^</p>

<p>the Supplement can be found on the CommonApp. </p>

<p>Good luck, guys!</p>

<p>Thanks Schopenhauer! And it’s the window one…YES!</p>
