William and Mary Extended Deadline?

Hi folks. Has anyone received a message from William and Mary extending the regular decision deadline? Yesterday a friend’s daughter received an email, apparently from the College, offering to extend the deadline to apply until January 8th and the deadline to send supporting materials until February 1. Is this for real, do you think?

Yes it is real. They are fairly generous with deadline stuff because they recognize that things come up and not everyone is able to submit it by Janurary 1st. For what it is worth, I submitted my application after the deadline, was accepted, and it is where I currently attend. Best of luck!

Thanks!

Don’t go there!!

@hotpink3578 Why not??? If you’re going to make a statement like that, please back it up with some reasons so that people can benefit from your comments. Why should someone not attend W&M?

Does anyone have any information on when W&M will release RD admissions?
