Good luck everyone!
will be my 9th rejection! Cheers
Is 32 ACT competitive for Amherst?
the 25th to 75th percentile at amherst is 31-34; you’re in the average range so it won’t really hurt or help your application. i doubt amherst would really reject any people because of a test score (unless it’s super low) anways, don’t worry!
what are early writes ?
early writes were early offers of admission from a few weeks ago. think likely letters. no point in worrying about them @FLParent888.
Oof those stats for International students really scares me but good luck y’all!
@Amririii Same here! Amherst’s acceptance rate for international students overall is only 5%! And I am from China which has a lot of ver competitive applicants and I applied FA! Whoops!
Hi everyone! I chose option B for the Amherst essay. Would any of you please read my essay and tell me your opinion on it. I want to gauge my expectations pre-hand
Anyone else’s FA portal shows 404 page not found? Mine is like that? Hopefully it doesn’t mean rejection
@EstherL mine is still the same as it has been. I wouldn’t worry about it though it’s probably just a glitch or something
@EstherL
the site was down for maintenance for a couple hours. don’t worry about it.
@EstherL does your FA Page still show “404 page not found”?
Here i am waiting a couple of hours to blow my amhrest college candle. I am sure it is probably not flaming. No hope for my chance dude!!
i know it is going to be a no for me… i didn’t even write a supplement for them i just sent in an old essay 
@floppywhoopee it’s back normal now. It came back normal by midnight last night.
I’m from India, which is as overrepresented as China. I applied for FA too!!! I really hope this works out for me.
same hereee!!

I don’t recall seeing the above on the financial aid portal, prior to today. Does this show for anyone else? Am I reading too much into this or does this mean something?
I can’t access my FA page…
