Williams ED Class of 2013 Results

To those rejected or deferred: I can't say I know how you feel, but I genuinely hope you find a school that is as good of a fit for you as Williams.


I was accepted!

I'm not really a big fan of stats, but I will say that I am an athlete, but I didn't take an official recruiting trip or anything.

Deferred. Everyone I know, including me had a bad day outside of this, so I guess this just sealed the deal. Yay.

I'm just doing this to indulge myself, since I didn't do a chance thread.

Please, this isn't the Harvard board. Everybody has good scores and 60% of us are athletes. Putting your stats out there probably sends the wrong message. Congrats to all in the Class of 2013. Go Ephs.

Okay, I agree it was a moment of weakness. I'd edit it away but I can't.

i was accepted. im not going to put any of my stats up though simply because i know they aren't the best and i've seen kids on here with higher scores who were rejected. i feel like i'd have to justify myself when it should be obvious that all these numbers and stats don't really matter, it just depends on the fit with the school.

I took a campus tour and hated amherst, even though I thought I would like it better than Schmilliams.

Deferred.

Does anyone know what the percentage of deferred and denied students was?
I think they said that they accepted 225/616?
