Yes, you called it! My son got in, now just waiting on W&M and Rice. Rejected from NU but was expecting that. Still nice to get this news. Insane year, that’s for sure. And I feel like W&M is the last school without a date!
What’s your top choice?

Can decisions come out already? The wait is the worst.

I feel you! It’s how most of my schools are as well. As a matter of fact, Decisions came out yesterday for my dream school (mind you I applied ea and was deferred, also 2 other classmates applied). EVERYONE else got decisions except me. Admissions this year are weird and a lot of schools aren’t being very forward about decisions dates.
Question for anyone who may have an answer: Do colleges release decisions on weekends as well? In other words, is it possible decisions for WM to be released today or tomorrow?
Yes they do & it’s possible. You’d have to see W&M’s track record of when they usually release decisions though.

@Sparkle626 All of the decisions are in from the schools. Now decision time for my kiddo!!! I think it is narrowed down to being between Tulane and William & Mary!
Good luck!

costs aside - too very different schools. One is sleepy, in a really nice town but that’s what it is - a town in the middle of nowhere.
The other - I know many like their campus - my daughter and I both thought it wasn’t too nice to the point she didn’t apply. But it is in New Orleans - not in the heart but you can get to it - so the polar opposite of W&M.
If costs aren’t involved and you are in at both, seems the choice will be pretty easy depending on the environment they prefer. Good luck.
Yes, thanks! We have toured both. The ONLY thing she doesn’t like about Tulane is that it is in NOLA! She is an extroverted introvert so likes W&M campus, location, quietness and the feel. Oddly, after merit given, W&M costs more, unfortunately. Sigh…
Soooo William & Mary released decisions on Saturdays for the past two years. I know they said April 1, but Wake also said next week and dropped decisions yesterday.
Anyway, Happy Saturday & hang in there!

It’s always this way. My daughter loves College of Charleston, a lesser school that costs more than others she’s gotten info - UGA, U of SC Honors, Miami, Florida State, etc.
Can’t catch a break…or she can’t. We’ll find out if she’s where she wants to be or I’m in a trailer home.
C of C is in Charleston - right where the action is. Imagine Tulane in the French Quarter. That’s actually what she loved.
The dorms at Tulane really threw her off though - they had outside doors - like a Motel 6.
Nice, a friend of mine’s nephew is at Tulane and loves it. Can’t go wrong with W&M either. Congrats on awesome, awesome choices!
C of C really is great. We have a tiny second home virtually on campus and all the kids seem super friendly and engaged with Charleston. My D was accepted with decent merit will make her decision after she hears from her final two schools, W&M and Tulane.

It’s great - but my concern is it’s “lesser” as we talk about schools like W&M. It’s a notch down from Clemson and U of SC - although very different. And those are not W&M.
Charleston, for us, with merit and special program, is also $12K or so more than U of SC.
But there’s not doubt that the campus is unique, etc.
Hi all! My daughter got a postcard in the mail about a month ago… We didn’t think much of it at the time, but definitely remember the front was green with the W&M logo on it and the back said something about decisions coming in the spring… After barely skimming it over, I threw it out thinking it wasn’t anything important, but of course, today we stumbled across this chain and are thinking this could’ve been the cypher?? Any thoughts? Not sure what else it would be, but can’t remember if there was any writing or obvious giveaways…

So funny my son got this about two months ago and the same thing happened. We thought it was just a marketing thing and recycled it. After following the forum I realized that wasn’t the case and felt bad that we hadn’t kept it. Would have been so nice to put in a scrapbook.

Ours came a little after the first posts here on the subject so when we saw it (which was a surprise to be honest) we were ready…otherwise we would have done the same fir sure
