The College of William and Mary

<p>I wanted to go here in HS but did not have the grades for it. I am at a Community College right now and have a 4.0 and will hopefully finish with a 4.0 this year. However, W&M said they still want my HS transcript.</p>

<p>I didn't get very good grades...like at all, in HS. We are talking <3.0 but >2.0. People who get in there have 3.9's. I have that NOW. They accept a bit more than half their transfers which is good but W&M really favors you if you are in state. I am in NJ and at a CC. I have perfect grades though and will hopefully still have perfect grades in may when I finish the year at CC. </p>

<p>Honestly, this is the only "competitive" school I want to transfer to. I know I am going to get into good schools (hopefully) like Ohio State, but ever since I visited W&M...I don't know, it is..beautiful. I really want to go here.</p>

<p>Will my 4.0, LOR's, and personal statement get me in or is there no hope?</p>

<p>What do they need the HS transcript for anyway?</p>

<p>52% of the transfers who apply, they accept. That is pretty good for a school that is ranked up there with UNC and NYU.</p>
