<p>I'm interviewing and touring around the campus next Friday. I was wondering if any student would be willing to host me that night?</p>
<p>Good idea to ask here because the W&M admissions office doesn’t arrange individual overnight visits. According to the website, there are some official events that include overnight visits (not sure what those are - maybe W&M Admissions will weigh in here).</p>
<p>The problem with doing an overnight on a Friday is that many students may not want to take on responsibility for a hs student/potential applicant on a weekend night. From your POV, you may not get an accurate impression of life at W&M, because students there celebrate the weekend in a wide range of styles, from epic drinking at a party to hanging out with friends to doing a service project - even studying as exams approach. So the wrong matchup might leave you with the wrong impression. </p>
<p>I’ll ask my d if she might know of someone who’d host an overnight and PM you if she does. Hope you love your tour of the school.</p>
<p>Ok thank you! I can’t wait to see the school; I’ve heard nmothing but great things about it. :)</p>
<p>Unfortunately we do not provide the opportunity to do an overnight visit through our office save a few invite-only programs we run. If you know a student who attends W&M you can stay with that person as his/her guest but otherwise an overnight is unlikely. </p>
<p>However, you may want to explore the Tribe Shadow Program ([William</a> & Mary - Shadow a Tribe Ambassador](<a href=“http://www.wm.edu/admission/undergraduateadmission/visit/shadowprogram/index.php]William”>Shadow a Student | William & Mary)) which allows you to go to class and lunch with a current student. We are offering that opportunity this coming Friday. You can also check out our campus events calendar (events.wm.edu) and see if there are any Friday-night events you’d like to attend.</p>
<p>I just registered. But can I still do it if I need to do my interview at 2:00? I know it ends then, but is the ending building the same place where interviews are held?</p>
<p>I know the school can’t set up overnights, so I’m still looking if anyone on the boards knows of someone.</p>
<p>If not, I’ll see if any friends of friends (perhaps stuents who went to my high school and now go to W&M?) would be able.</p>
