I went on Collegeboard and saw that a very small percentage submitted ACTs over SATs and got me thinking that W&M prefers SATs but I"m not sure.

Thanks ]]> College of William and Mary plue00-205464 http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-william-mary/814038-does-w-m-prefer-sats-over-acts.html http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-william-mary/813390-you-ve-got-what-takes.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 14:55:00 GMT W&M Admissions – My junior received an e-mail from Dean Broaddus with the subject line “You’ve got what it takes, …”. At the bottom it states “We received your email address from a previous contact.”

Does that mean a contact he made when he put his name on the admissions web site? Or do you have lists of prospective students from other sources; what would those be? The e-mail has a very encouraging message and I’m not sure whether to read it as targeted to him or if this is commonly sent to interested students?!?

Top public school (that grants PhDs); top VA school by this measure, including private as well as public.

I was looking at the recommended courses for transfer students on the W&M website. I'll be applying for Fall 10. Here is what I have for next semester and I want to know if this the courses are correct according to what W&M recommends. (I currently am a student at NVCC.) There are some of the classes I will be taking:

History And Appreciation of Art I - Same as GER 5: Literature and History of the Arts?

Principles of Anthropology I - This for GER 4. In one of their curriculum examples they have a course called Cultural Anthropology but I don't think we have anything called that. Or would United States History I be more beneficial? I'm took Western Civ. already. Or should I take both since I do need 3 courses in that GER?

Introduction to Photography - Would this fulfill GER 6: Creative and Performing Arts? I just got a new dSLR and have always wanted to learn how to use one so I'm going to be taking this regardless.

I'm also taking a math but I don't know what else to take. I wanted to do a language but I can't since it coincides with my other classes. ( ex. Both classes same time/same day and they don't have alternatives. :/ ) What other classes are recommended?

I'm not aiming for an associates but these are some of the classes I've already taken:
Psychology (2 semesters)
Biology (2 semesters)
English (2 semesters)
Creative Writing
Introduction to Interpersonal Communication
Lifetime Fitness And Wellness
Introduction to Philosophy
Introduction to Religion
History of Western Civilization I
Introduction to Computing

Sorry for the long wall post. Thanks for your time and hope to hear some feedback. :]
