Wake Forest lists William & Mary as a peer institution every year and vice versa.[/quote] Yeah Wake and W&M very much see themselves as peers (at least until W&M becomes R1 next fall)[/quote]

The students at WFU are not like the students at William & Mary. WFU students are not as nerdy as those attending W&M.[/quote]
That's not what peer institution means[/quote]

Please share your definition of "peer institutions".

Also, I was unaware that this thread was about "peer institutions"; I thought that it was about campus cultures & similar students.[/quote]
In this case, peer institutions means colleges that have been submitted by Wake to be in a comparison group used in the department of education's IPEDS. So basically institutions they think they should be compared to.

You can see the data points that are compared to Wake's chosen peers: https://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/institution-profile/199847[/quote]
