In the Power 5, it would be schools like Wake, Vanderbilt, Northwestern, Stanford, Duke, and Boston College, plus Notre Dame. Some of those are obviously exceptionally difficult admits.

Outside of Power 5, perhaps Rice, Davidson (basketball only), Richmond, etc.

Most big sports public schools tend to be significantly larger. A number that are similar sized (Tufts) aren't big sports schools.

Richmond is in a bit stronger basketball league, but otherwise not much difference.

W&M is the most expensive state college in the country, especially if you are OOS.


I think Michigan and UVA are a bit more.

Yes. Happily. (I’m not the OP but could have asked the same question)

But not a Division 1 contender (perhaps that one year with Steph Curry).

When it comes to publics, W&M is singular: there is no other public of its size and quality.
