hey, i’m really sorry you guys didn’t get in…i would side with ephman and id; you’re all amazing, strong candidates, but maybe they’re just looking for something different, or there are a lot of people with similar cvs in this year’s ED pool. i can’t believe you got rejected outright reyk…and the only explanation i can offer is that with admissions officers, you really never know what they’re thinking. your college list doesn’t sound too safe though reyk…you might want to add a few more schools like bates, colby, kenyon for safety. and if you like williams so much, why not go for amherst? it’s very similar. best of luck, i sincerely hope you get into a great school!
and bral…that’s so not true, every school has legacy kids (keeping alum happy is hugely important, not the least for monetary reasons), but i know a lot of people at williams who are just academically strong and well rounded.
