Washington and Lee ED 2022 thread

Anyone applying to Washington and Lee ED for Class of 2022? Couldn’t find a relevant thread. Drop all sorts of updates you get below.

yup! i applied but i don’t even know the date decisions come out

it’ll probably come out by the third week of December. Did you apply for the Johnson as well? and where are you from?

Yes I did! I am from NJ and I’m playing fh there

I also applied to W&L Early Decision. Does anyone know when the results will come out. I’m so worried

If Im not mistaken, they will come out in December, 18

does anyone know how much influence coaches at W&L have on the admissions team? I applied ED and was wondering if your chances of getting in increase if you plan to play a sport and apply ED

From what I understand, coaches have more influence now at W&L than in previous years. A new admissions director works more closely with them in the pre-screening process so there are less “surprises” at admission time. If you had a pre-read prior to applying and the coach was given the green light to continue recruiting you, then things should go well for ED. Of course there are no guarantees, but if your stats fall in the range and you are being recruited, than it’s as good as being a recruit at any other D3

Looking over past release dates, the ED decision seems to come out on a Friday night, so I’m hoping for the 15th!~
Has anyone else noticed this?

yes i also noticed this!! i wonder what time friday, but something tells me it will be then! also for wh asked abt admissions as an athlete, i am also applying!! i think we should be optimistic :slight_smile:

did you guys send them videos of you playing?
also, I was told by the admissions officer that they’ll send us an e-mail stating the date the decisions will come out. So, expect an e-mail anytime soon.

I am also recruited to play a sport and my coach told me we should know by this Friday.

omg what sport (:

also @samyamaryal i already committed to my coach in the summer, so i had been sending her videos and she had seen me play in person a handful of times before.

did these coaches say you would get in if you applied ED? Wondering if what I heard about W&L coaches having more influence than in the past is true?

the coaches told me that athletes have a better shot of getting in ED than regular decision. And I also heard from my coach that decisions will be out Friday night!

basically coaches can’t say if you’re in or not but they can give you a vague way of saying admissions says its all good

Just got the email- Friday at 8:00 EST the decisions will be released!

Do the coaches know prior to Friday if their recruits got in?

Has anyone noticed any changes in their Financial Aid page?
