Absolutely do an interview. This school is small and really into knowing people so doing an interview really lets them see you as a person and not just test scores, which are the type of students they want. Also it shows them how much you want to go here which is also big. They don't want to be admitting students who aren't going to be happy here.

Business - Management and Administration

Try to keep a well rounded course load and if your school offers AP courses I would make sure to take as many as you think you can handle your junior and senior year. As far as extra curricular activities are involved, find one or two clubs or organizations to take on a leadership position. If you are the least bit athletic, get on a team and stick with it for all four years. W&L is a small school and the administration's goal is to maintain an amicable community, therefore if your not a team player your not wanted.

I transferred in from one of the "Top 5" state universities. That school was higher ranked since it was frankly just lager. Undergraduate experience at W&L was far superior. I was well prepared for my two graduate degrees and a successful IT career.

Just make sure you keep in contact with the school, when new things happen definitely call whoever you interviewed with, or just call admissions. They keep track of EVERYTHING, so make sure you know that.
