[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It says W&M is a safety school for VA kids with high scores.[/quote]

How was Radford?[/quote]

Not sure what that means (or what Radford is), but I assume it’s insulting.

My point was simple.  If school A has higher admitted scores, lower matriculant scores and lower yield than school B, it means school A functions more as a safety school for high performers than school B.  That doesn’t make school A a bad or a worse school than B.  Presumably, it means school A appeals to high performers (many of whom have other options they prefer).  [/quote]

Looking at data for several years, I think it’s fair to say that UVA has outpaced William and Mary in popularity.  Apples and oranges to some extent, yes.  The applicant pools are basically the same, in terms of quality, but moms and dads probably feel better telling their kids to say yes to the bigger brand name.  Better value, I think.[/quote]
Not for OOS when you have options like Michigan, California, NC etc especially if you are interested in STEM[/quote]
