The school, campus, and town are everything that our son was hoping for and then some. The rigorous academic aspect will prepare him for medical school. The social and party atmosphere is just good enough to have a great college experience without too much temptation. We are so happy he chose WM over the other equally impressive universities he was fortunate enough to be accepted to.

William & Mary is considered a "Public Ivy". A truly academic-focused school that attracts very bright students. The school's undergraduate faculty are ranked among the very best in the country. Diverse student body. Many options socially, although the party scene lags behind many less academically-focused colleges. Williamsburg is a great college town with incredible history.
