Nothing on Twitter that I can find, did they just post on Instagram (which I don’t use?)?
Yes, I guess just Instagram. I just checked W&M’s Twitter and FB page - nothing there. The Instagram message stated in full: “@wmadmission will release regular decision notifications by April 1, which means every day that passes we’re one day closer to meeting the newest members of our community. We can’t wait to get to know you, #wm2026!”

Good morning and congratulations Ryan! Welcome to the Tribe! W&M students don’t/can’t declare their major until the 2nd semester of their Sophmore year.
Hey Lolly ~ Waitlist is def > rejected… hang in there!!
You don’t declare a major at W&M until end of sophomore year. They are all admitted to the “college”. 
Waitlisted. Does anyone know how many students W&M waitlist and what her chances may be?
Last year, they put 4720 on the waitlist. 2417 accepted a spot on the waitlist and of those 2417, 38 were accepted.
So, yeah.
Doesn’t sound promising then. Thanks
Hi, check out this link about waitlist FAQ’s William & Mary Waitlist FAQs | William & Mary
It contains a guaranteed pathway: What if I don’t get off the waitlist but William & Mary remains my top choice?
William & Mary offers two spring term for waitlisted students; a community or junior college pathway, and an academic Semester Abroad program through Verto Education(https://vertoeducation.org/wm).
