My junior S says W&M is his first choice for next year – in other words, he’ll be applying ED. Would those of you who got in ED (or didn’t for that matter), care to post a pared down version of your stats? i.e. in/out-state, best SAT/ACT, GPA, anything else that you felt made you stand out? Thank you – it will help us manage our expectations for next year!

My D applied ED two years ago, got deferred and didn’t get in. In case you’re wondering, she went on to attend another terrific university and couldn’t be happier. As much as we wanted her to get in, I think W&M Admissions made the right decision, so congrats to those who got in, and try to hold on to both your hope and perspective if you didn’t – things do work out! Good luck!
