As a student on financial aid would I feel out of place at Williams?
No. Since over half of the students at Williams receive some financial assistance, it is nearly impossible to distinguish those who receive aid from those who do not. Many students hold campus jobs, not just financial aid students. Williams students do not have to rely upon a costly urban environment for social, cultural and dining pursuits. A full array of on-campus events – concerts, films, plays, lectures, dance performances, athletic events, etc. rarely cost students more than a dollar or two at the door; most events are free with a Williams I.D. Consequently, financial aid students can participate fully in the social and cultural life offered at Williams without feeling “out-of-place,” or unable to afford certain opportunities.
