S was accepted to both last year and decided on UVA was better fit:


Larger school; more choice/opportunity for academic and social
Prefer UVA or W&M campus (he attended summer enrichment programs on both campus)
Prefers Charlottesville over Williamsburg
Many friends and his brother go there
Better name recognition (lot of people, mainly non-academics) out outside of VA have not heard of W&M)


Should visit both school before deciding what is a better fit for you. No wrong decision to attend either.
