Very few people outside of New England have heard of Williams, and almost no one has heard of the Tyang Scholarship.



I would not put a lot of stock in what very few people outside of New England think. If they do not know that you are talking about the number 1 & 2 ranked liberal arts colleges in the country, I wouldn’t want their advice (but that’s just me).

While your neighbor at the supermarket may never have hear of Williams/Amherst, trust and believe top law/med schools, grad programs, consulting firms, IBs etc have heard of Williams and Amherst.
