Was your acceptance RD? When was the letter mailed? Were there any special circumstances related to your acceptance? Where do you live? Most importantly congratulations.

I did not see anything that said early write...so it must be RD. I do find it strange that it is so early. I wasn't anticipating anything until next week.

Has anybody else received anything??

I received my acceptance letter yesterday as well. Congratulations bexline!

The envelope was postmarked March 20th and the letter was written on March 13th. I didn't submit early at all, if anything the earliest was the day before it was due.

Bexline are you talking about the Preview Program or is this another overnight program in addition to PP?


I am so excited, I was literally jumping up and down!

Cendi, I think that the preview is tied into this diversity scholars thing, because it is at the same time.

What are your stats?? Are you going, I am.

I did want to add one thing. I know that Williams does not do interviews, but I was able to meet with a admissions person because of my age. So, maybe that also helped.

Good luck to all!!
