Any more recent experiences with this program? The most recent thread was from 2017. Especially interested in overlap between its history focus and students who might not want to major in history but are considering a major that could be threaded to the study of history.

Thanks, I did see 1 and 3. Obviously I would check the school website first! Will read 2, thanks for finding that. I asked here and checked Reddit but didn’t do a broad google search.
Following up after some additional research, the cost is significant. Trying to figure out if this is another pay to play program or if because there is actual college credit earned, it is somehow considered differently on college apps.
Anything you do should be for interest or validation in a school or major, not for an admissions boost. A summer job would be as good. But you wouldn’t learn about the subject or W&M.
Thanks for helping keep this thread alive. Hoping someone with actual direct experience with the program will chime in.
