Hey y’all! W&L is my first choice. Feel free to express your interest in W&L below. I hope to y’all in Lexington next fall.
Does anyone know when decisions come out?
@Pepperboy nope, but apparently they notify you through email a few days before, so I don’t think it’s any time in the next couple days
Washington and Lee takes an awful long time to release decisions considering how few applications they get.
can’t agree more @gearsstudio. As far as I see, most other similar LACs, even with a larger application pool, have released their decisions, or at least post an exact date.
They notified me on the GHQ, but I also got the Johnson Scholarship, so they may have only notified those individuals thusfar.
Admission decisions are slated to release tomorrow beginning at 8, according to the admissions website.
good luck y’all! I’ll be hearing from 2 schools tomorrow so I’m a bit nervous but I hope I get good news
Hope things went well @stodghill !! I seem to have mixed luck. I had a run of acceptances and then a run of waitlist responses. But tomorrow’s going to be the second night in a row with an evening decision and I’m getting rather nervous. Without the Johnson, I’m not sure W&L ranks too highly on my list anymore, since I just can’t afford it, but I’m hoping for the best.
@sarahj98 I’m in the exact same situation. UVA is way cheaper for me because I qualify for in-state tuition and makes so much more sense financially. Really no college is worth 40k more a year than UVA… With the Johnson I would’ve gone to W&L in a heartbeat, but without it the chances of me going are not great.
@stodghill I don’t know what you want to study, but I’d say UVA’s worth it just for the professors. It’s better known and better respected, to be honest. I’d say you’ve got a fantastic four years ahead of you. Congratulations!
@sarahj98 thanks- I’d say the same for you! Where are you thinking you’ll end up?
@stodghill Probably the UK! It costs less and I’ve already been accepted to some schools there.
decisions are posted!
Waitlisted.
Also waitlisted (at least not another rejection…).
My son was waitlisted as well.
Waitlisted too.
Rejected…lol what
Also waitlisted… I only did the extracurricular activity supplemental essay though, so maybe the saw my lack of demonstrated interest. I’m also probably not a good fit for this school anyway. Oh well. Good luck to everybody else!
