[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These gender-disparate application specifics are not unique to W&M. My older child applied to an Ivy a couple of years ago and the admissions and acceptance rates were wildly different by gender. Pretty much true everywhere.[/quote] I don't believe for a minute that this is true. It's easy enough to verify, though. Identify the Ivy and provide a link to the numbers. Yes, many colleges have more women applying than men. But few have W&M's disparity, and most respond simply by accepting more women. [/quote] I stand somewhat corrected. I went back and looked, and Brown does have a lot more women than men apply and seems to favor men in admissions. But none of the others do. So, yea, W&M isn't "unique," but what happens there isn't "pretty much true everywhere" either. [/quote]
