Well, we ended up not going. My son is not interested in visiting UMW now. We are choosing between JMU and Geneseo, need to decide before May 1st. I was more interested in visiting UMW than he was. Oh well, I have heard many nice things about UMW though.

Sorry to hear that. It is a beautiful campus. The only thing keeping my kid from applying are their foreign language requirements (I believe it is 2 years/4 semesters).

That is a lot. I thought most colleges don't require a foreign language. And if they do, would 5 years of HS language satisfy the requirement?

I don't know, I guess you'd have to look into their catalog about what their requirements would be.

I wouldn't get hung up on the language requirement. As a matter of fact I think that it is only one year now and they offer intensive language courses which meet everyday and are worth 6 credits. This may seem like a lot of work but having a language every day IS the best way to learn it. If taking Spanish look for Professor Locke...she may just be the best professor at Mary Washington. Any other questions?
