<p>Does anyone have some numbers relating to the discrepancy of in state versus out of state admission for william and mary?</p>
<p>I was confused about being waitlisted from this school even as an out of state student.
My SAT's were M-760 V-770 W-760
I have a gpa of around 3.95-4.1ish area on a 4.3 scale
I have taken 7 AP courses
I played varsity soccer and ice hockey
I have other smaller awards/service projects/jobs and such as well
I also have never had any behavioral issues such as suspensions or anything</p>
<p>I've noticed that W&M tends to waitlist a lot of people and accept very few from this so my hopes are not very high. I've sent in my deposit for Case Western Reserve University but I'm still hoping to be able to go to W&M. Any thoughts on my chances would be appreciated.</p>
<p>Wow, I'm quite shocked that you were not offered admittance. It seems that I was a similar applicant. I applied out of state- male I might add- with a 4.3 w, 2110 (lower than yours), as well as pretty solid ECs and was accepted. It seems that you are also a guy, so I don't see why you didn't get in. It is harder for out of state applicants, but still, you should have gotten in. I have decided to attend William and Mary. My guess is that the admissions committee will be unable to ignore your excellent stats; I would guess that they will take you off the wait-list. Best of luck!</p>
<p>Keep your chin up and make sure they know how interested you still are. Send them a letter with any additional accomplishments or activities, especially if you can relate any of them to activities or courses that they offer and how you might be able to add to them.
I was w/l at W&M years ago, chose to transfer there after a year, and loved every minute I was there. Since your stats are so good, I think if you show genuine interest luck might just be on your side. Maybe you'll get my son's place; he turned them down (boo hoo from me). If not, enjoy CW and make the best of what it has to offer!</p>
<p>Sounds very similar to my stats and I got in and accepted to the Monroe Scholars Program.</p>
