It's hard to know, really. But I'd bet that W&M is more self-selecting than UVA. Certainly far fewer boys apply there than girls. But many in state students who apply either to UVA or W&M (or both) often apply to JMU as a safety. If you're good enough for UVA to be on your radar, you're pretty much guaranteed admission to JMU.

There is this urban myth going around that W&M has become a school that only interests girls. Someone posted on another thread that it's on it's way to becoming a private all female college. Nothing could be farther from the truth. UVA's current undergraduate enrollment is 55% female vs. 58% at W&M. Is this a meaningful difference? And BTW, JMU is a very good school. Is there any question that Virginia overall has the finest state university system in the country? Imagine if you were stuck with SUNY Binghampton/Geneseo. Not ideal!

Well it's certainly better than Maryland and many other states, but c'mon, California schools hold 6 of the top 12 spots in US News Public Universities ranking, including #1 and #2. North Carolina, though not in that league, also has a phenomenal system.[/quote]

Yes!  See if you agree with this analysis:
