[quote=Anonymous]UVA and William & Mary Wasn’t too surprised (for her) about UVA but was surprised about W&M. I asked her to apply to both for IS tuition. She intentionally half-assed her essays to both; more for UVA than W&M. When she found out she didn’t get into UVA, she just chuckled. She never had a thing for UVA. Knows a lot of students who have attended and didn’t like most of them. She was top 5% in SAT at her school (top 20 out of 400) with tons of leadership EC’s. Heard too many stories about the test banks in the Greek houses, the “girls with pearls”, and the rampant cheating. I know UVA has their “honor code” but it’s more that students won’t report each other because of the expulsion policy, so it’s “don’t ask, don’t tell”. Interestingly, all her friends at the main VA schools (UVA, VA Tech, JMU, VCU; not so much at W&M) have described the cheating as widespread. W&M is the one that surprised me. It was more the tour guide gated being there and the horrible dorms. [/quote]
