I am a current senior, applying to William & Mary Early Decision I. I have already submitted my application earlier this week. Recently, I got notified that I was accepted to a pretty prestigious extracurricular program. Should I email my admissions counselor to ask how this can be considered in my application?

On PATH I can see that the organic chem lab is listed as taking 4 hours, ex: 6:00-9:50 pm, how often does the organic chem lab typically take the full 4 hours, or does it typically end early and if so, how much earlier does the lab end.

Everspring is the company that contacts you once you start an application with William & Mary.

What has your experience been dealing with their agents?

Hey there, I'm curious how much of a weekly time commitment William and Mary's online MBA is? And how difficult are the classes?

Bonus question, I'm doing a masters of CS at Virginia Tech remote right now. I hate coding. I was an AE at a big tech company for 2 years. I'd like to do more strategic and creative work. Is doing an online MBA worth it? (my tuition would be paid for by the VA).

I'm a current senior and wondering about my chances! In-state, applying ED. I have a 4.3 GPA, 4.0 unweighted. SAT is 1410 and I am taking all IB classes, shooting for the full diploma. My extracurriculars are working as a COT at a summer camp, being a ESL tutor for a teen in Ukraine, several self-organized charity bake sales for the Turkey/Syria earthquake and the Children's Tumor Foundation, piano and flute. Intended major is either neuroscience or international relations.

I’m a current senior applying Early Decision I to William & Mary. My senior year courses consist of six AP level classes. I am also a student aid for first period, do you think admissions officer will look unfavorably on my application because of this?

Let me preface this by saying I want to learn GIS for a bonus in my future career, it’s not required for my major.

I have an insanely busy work/school schedule planned for next semester (don’t we all), and I want to take this class purely for skills and not for a grad. I’ve heard it’s insanely time consuming. Would I be able to pass the class while only putting in upwards of 2-3 hours of work a week outside of class?

How much work is double-majoring compared to having a single major? Like if I would be taking the same number of credits/classes each semester, what are the extra requirements for an additional major? I’ve heard ppl talk about needing to do “research” and like capstone projects? How much work is all that on top of classes?

What would you personally recommend? sticking w 1 major I don’t love and taking other electives, or taking 2 majors I like even tho I’m already kinda lazy/neurodivergent/struggling

I want to take this one because it seems super interesting but my other classes are pretty difficult next semester so I’m wondering how difficult/time consuming this class would be. Anyone have any insight?

it OPENS december 1 yet i also get my acceptance/denial letters that month. I'm still gonna fill it out and put W&M on it but how does it work? (the website says ED I needs CSS profile but never mentioned FAFSA)

hi!! i’m a writer and i’ve seen a few creative newsletters that had poetry in them and was wondering if there are any places to submit to zines, newsletters, etc? i have wanted to but i haven’t seen any resources for it (or i haven’t been able to catch them haha).

any input is appreciated!!

I have a question for people who were waitlisted for the William & Mary online mental health counseling program. I applied for fall 2024 and got rejected (my essay sucked honestly). Then I reapplied for the spring 2025 term (essay was way better) and was waitlisted. I am wondering if anyone who was waitlisted ever got off of it. If you did, how long did it take for you to be notified? They told me the wait could go all the way up until the week before classes start. I am just trying to see what my chances are of getting into the program for the spring term. Also at this point, if I don't get in again this semester; is it even worth applying for the fall 2025 semester? I could always talk to a counselor about it but I hate the application process and would hate to have to write a whole new essay for a third time.  My second question is for people who applied and got rejected and then reapplied and got in. What part of the application process did you change or improve on? I would assume the essay but considering I could apply for a third time, is turning in the same essay from my last application process appropriate to do? I wouldn't use my first essay from when I got rejected but the second essay from my second attempt at applying and getting waitlisted.

Hey everyone! I'm currently a freshman at NOVA and planning to transfer to William & Mary. Starting this year, NOVA no longer provides any advisors, so I’m reaching out to see if anyone on this subreddit has transferred from NOVA and would be willing to chat with me about the process—more specifically, my courses! I would really appreciate a quick check-in because everything I know about the transfer agreements comes from my own research, and I want to make sure I'm not missing anything or that I'm on the right track.

Interpreting Literature is a required class for my prospective English minor, and it has five different professors teaching it this semester. Any recommendations?

From the name and what I've seen on Rate My Professor, it seems like this coll 100 could either be really awesome or really lame. Has anyone taken this class? What do you do in it? Is it worth taking?

Hi guys, in order to graduate, I need to take classes outside of my major. What are some easy and light or fun classes you recommend? Bonus points if they're GPA boosters, lol.

Hey everyone, I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations for easy coll 100s in the spring semester. I have a hard Coll 150 this semester and while it's been really rewarding, I really don't want to do a hard coll 100 right afterward. If anyone has any advice or just any classes they can recommend please let me know. Thanks :)

My daughter is considering this school, but we are out of state. Currently has a 4.2 weighted gpa and is taking 4 weighted courses this year. I haven’t been able to find info on their website yet.

Planning on Ed1

I have also shown interest in the college of William and Mary with campus tours and a senior interview.

I’ve been accepted into the MSBA program (in state tuition - with a scholarship of 12k) and I’m trying to understand if it would be a good school for this program. I’d appreciate any review of this program relating jobs, placements, intensity of the program and if W&M is the right pick for MSBA. Thank you!

Hi. Wondering how the diversity within the college is. I’m a little hesitant going here bc I come from a super diverse state and W&M is almost all white (no disrespect!) also, it’s in colonial Virginia, 6 hours away from me 😬. Is it worth applying or even going?

3.7 weighted GPA. 5 APs. 1 honors. 1520 SAT. Lots of extracurriculars (3 clubs, 2 internships, community service, random extras) all focused around law/pre-law. I did the pre law constitutional interpretation course from William and Mary too. 4 awards, first gen recognition, PVSA gold, ACA, AP scholar. 2 rec letters and decent essay.

Title, more or less. My cumulative GPA is 3.5, which feels way too low. I slacked off a bunch in 9th grade and got a C, and then 1-2 Bs a year since then. I'd like to know if it's worth pestering people for letters of recommendation, because I would really like to go here, or if it would be a waste of their time. I graduated with an advanced diploma, but it was for projects, not a class grade, so I'm not sure if that means anything to anybody.

Hi! I’ve converted my file 10 times now and I am still having trouble submitting a picture for a profile pic on tribe careers. Anyone run into this issue? I’ve made it a png, a jpg, and sheunj the file size.

On a separate note, how important is our public profile. I just submitted an application to some stuff and my actual profile is very bare.
