Commencement Weekend 2026
Congratulations to the Class of 2026! Commencement Day is Sunday, June 7, in the Williams Quad.
A Williams Education
Thereโs no pressure to arrive at Williams with a planโa liberal arts education is all about learning to think critically and creatively through an open exchange of ideas. Youโll also find a supportive environment where your professors and classmates will feed your curiosity, challenge your preconceptions and believe in you.
Truly Affordable
We believe in opening doors. Thatโs why we launched the nationโs first All-Grant Financial Aid Program to make college even more affordable. That means no loans, no work requirementsโand weโll even cover your textbooks. We want every student to participate fully in all that Williams has to offer.
You Belong Here
Weโre committed to being an inclusive learning community where everyone can thrive. Our small, tight-knit campus creates space for differing perspectives to come together, and for passionate, curious people to see themselvesโand the wider worldโin a new light.
Be a Part of It All
Williams College offers a combination of small-town charm, bustling culture and natural beauty. Immerse yourself in the arts, wander through the woods, ski down the purple mountains or get involved in the local community. Itโs all the perfect environment for making deeply personal connections.
