College of William & Mary Class of 2021

I figured there should be a place to discuss applications to W&M for this year. Good luck everyone!

DS got a Likely postcard. GPA 4.2, ACT 34

Got a likely postcard yesterday! In state, GPA 4.9, SAT 1570. Excited to visit campus!

Does anyone know if William and Mary send a lot of likely cards out?

Just got my likely postcard! OOS, 35 ACT, 4.3 GPA.

@ooooooolala I think they send a fair amount, but I wouldn’t put too much stock into it.

Good luck to y’all in any case. I got shanghaied into being a peer adviser for incoming 2021 peeps so look forward to hearing you guys asking the ridiculous questions freshman always have!

What is a Likely postcard ? Not a good sign that we didn’t get one lol !! She got deferred from UVA so we are not too optimistic for WM Mary - her stats are competitive but OOS a disadvantage for sure! Looks like she will be staying in New England!

S got a likely postcard a couple of weeks ago. ACT 35 SAT2250 GPA 4.7 NMF. He’s quite interested in W&M and we are planning a visit in April. Does anyone know if 1693 semi-finalists have been asked yet? I read a blog post on W&M that they usually go out the 3rd week of Feb.

Got a likely post card today. 1460 sat, 4.3 gpa

4dm17m3 your stats are amazing! Congratulations! Did you apply to any Ivy leagues?

I haven’t received a likely postcard, but I have a GPA of 3.8 UW and 4.9 W, along with a 33 ACT. Very anxious about the postcard tbh.

S just received official acceptance email. Waiting for mailed packet. Named a Monroe Scholar. SAT 2250, ACT 35, GPA 4.5, 14 APs, 2 Varsity sports, community service.

We just got email acceptance yesterday for my son as well. Named a Monroe Scholar. ACT 34, GPA 4.6W, varsity sports, Eagle Scout, community service, AP classes. Any idea if any chance of merit aid coming with Monroe Scholar? Looks like just the $3K research stipend.

Received a likely postcard in the mail a couple weeks ago - will I have a good chance to be accepted early or will I have to wait until April 1st?

@shadyrainbows I think only Monroe Scholars are being notified early. I received a post card as well and am hoping there is another round of decisions sent out tomorrow

Wow all of you admitted and likely students have amazing stats- congrats to you all! We are Not holding out too much hope for our D who is already deferred from UVA. 3.9U/4.3W, 1400 SAT, 30 ACT (suggested she retake them and her response was “I’m done!”), lots of music and dance ECs, NHS, from MA. Undeclared major, which we since found out is not a good thing…(UMass-Amherst told her GC that was the reason she was not invited into their Honors college).

I got an acceptance email on Friday. Also received William and Mary Scholar award. I did get a likely postcard a few weeks ago, but I do not think that is related.

Haven’t heard anything official, but was sent a likely postcard a couple of days ago… may be slow mail since I’m from MN

About 25% of students who are accepted receive one.

Hey everyone! I’m OOS and just received a likely card on Thursday. ACT 32, SAT 2120, GPA 4.02W, 3.7UW. Can’t wait to meet you all!
