William and Mary 1693 Scholar notifications???

I recently received the “cypher” postcard in the mail (which is the William and Mary form of a likely letter), and am beyond excited and have become extremely interested in William and Mary!!!

Along these lines, I noticed that the 1693 Scholars program finalists (about 70 people) are notified of their status sometime in February. Does anyone have any information on the specific date of the notification? Since money is an issue for my family, Im always seeking out scholarship opportunities.

Thanks for any info :slight_smile:

Got an email today saying I was a semifinalist

what are ur stats?

2270 SAT / 4.2 GPA (first in class of 250) … Eagle Scout, etc.

good job! Thanks!

@dukewmwl Congrats! Thats interesting that you received an email. I asked this question on the William and Mary “Admit It!” blog, and they stated that semifinalists would be notified in the coming weeks and they couldn’t give be an exact date. I wonder if notification is staggered (like the postcards) or if everyone heard today…

Also, I have similar stats (35 ACT, 4.5 GPA, tons of ECs) so Im really hoping that I make it to the semifinalist round!

That I don’t know. All I can offer is that the deadline for additional essays is next Monday (2/15 I think), so I doubt they’d wait too long. Good luck!
