William and Mary has both positives and negatives. I would advise that all students find a niche for themselves whether it is Greek, club, or concentration oriented. Overall, I have to say my educational experience was excellent and I met professors at W&M who took a real interest in my educational and personal goals. The student body can be found lacking though, especially in diversity. Though it has the reputation as one of the most liberal schools in VA, I found it to be more right of center. As an out of state student, I found that some in-state students had a sense of entitlement that wasn't always deserved. However, I suppose this would be an problem at any well renowned school.

This is a public school. The classes are a bit larger, and the smaller ones are impossible to get into. The facilities aren't in the best shape. And we are constantly reminded that the state government has no money and that we have to cut our budget significantly. If you can afford to go to a private school, do that.

W&M is an amazing place to get an education. Students who come here are often overachievers and always hard workers, but it is certainly not a school full of nerds. The students here really like to get involved in extracurricular activities such as community service,sports and recreation, and sororities/frats. Its definetly not a big party school, but there is always fun stuff to do. Also, its awesome living so close to colonial Williamsburg and Busch Gardens!
Useful Schoolwork: A+, Scholastic Success: B+

This college rocks! I feel that I received an excellent education, one that taught me how to think on my feet. I very much enjoyed the shift from the shear rote memorization of high school to the analytically-based method of thought taught at the college. In addition, there were like a gazillion clubs and organizations to join. I personally rarely had a dull weekend. All the people here are friendly, authentic and smart. Best of all, I met my soon to be husband here :)
