[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t get this. Maybe someone from the dmv can fill in the gaps. Brown is clearly a better college. Of course fit matters and everything, but the cultures between brown and W&M can’t be THAT different. I also just don’t see W&M as that great. The type of student who applies and gets into W&M from DS’s hs typically is several notches below a brown admit academically.[/quote]
W&M Monroe students have scores at or above Brown's median. Cost is a factor too.[/quote]

+1. My kid was offered the Monroe scholar and at the presentation they read off the test scores/gpa averages, as well as some of the EC achievements. They were Ivy caliber. My kid did ultimately choose Brown- liked Providence much more than Williamsburg, but we were really impressed with W&M. WM also has great grad/law school/career placement. It’s more like a SLAC than a public state university.

It comes down to fit, cost and whatever else- but both are excellent schools with an undergrad focus. [/quote]
