Has everyone’s portal updated for them? My W&M portal looks different now.
Do they update decision on portal or send it directly in email. I have been reading in past years they send decision directly in the email.
Well I was deferred from ED 2 and there was an update in my portal and then 12 minutes later I got an email. But my comment was referring to the update of the interface.
Did the email contain the decision itself, or was it just a notice to tell you to check your portal?
It was a notice to check portal. I received the notice to check the portal AFTER my portal had been already updated

Just curious did you have an interview? And a cypher card?
I had no Cypher or interview. Then again I have a 3.3 UW (4.12 W) going test optional so, not like an interview would have helped my chances lol.

This year has unfortunately been a little too crazy for me. Got denied from every school I applied to. W&M is my last hope. Hopefully I can go to college!

Tell me about it. Such a wonky year for college apps too
Oh good luck then!! This is my D top choice but a reach. Did you have safety schools?
Applied to 4 safeties, got rejected from 3 of them. The last is basically community college so at least I’ll be going SOMEWHERE. Hopefully next years graduating class won’t have to deal with all this wonky covid college stuff like we did.
Well good luck. Did you answer the supplemental essay?
Of course. Those “optional” supplementals are never really optional if you know what I mean. Thank you and I’m hoping for the best.

Y did u get rejected every where. What are your stats. Where did u apply ? That tells me u missed any safeties
My daughter interviewed. Then promptly wrote a thank u on her phone…never smart. Sent. I read later. Two typos. I’d dismiss her if I were them!!!
Oh. My daughter had an interview and sent a thank you after too. I probably should have checked it.
I had a 2.1 freshman year, 3.4 sophomore year, 4.8 Junior year (10 APs total and test optional). Applied to 4 safeties 4 targets and 4 reaches. Denied from all except one safety, waiting to hear on 3 reaches)

What was your test or were you TO? What were your safeties…obviously not.
Not sure if you are in-state or not…but if not, you can still apply to some schools such as U of Arizona. Tuition is less than William and Mary OOS - it’s an easy app, a good school, and you will get in.
