[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wake has lots of rich kids. W&M prob less so.[/quote] No doubt Wake has more, my daughter is a student at W&M, and my BFF son just graduated, our kids both agree- -there are many wealthy students at W&M. I've had kids at Tech, Mary Wash, and William and Mary, and W&M is definitely more of that vibe, in our opinion.[/quote] W&M is extremely expensive for OOS - 70K - and 40% of students are OOS. The schools gives very little merit aid.[/quote] Counterpoint: W&M is more affordable than a lot of comparable schools. Wake, for example, is ~$94K per year. I have two at W&M from OOS, and the LAC they were comparing against W&M was $90K. If your anchor is "my local in-state school", W&M might seem high (I have a kid at one of those, as well), but I think that's the wrong benchmark.[/quote] PP here and I think you missed my point, which was not to compare value but to explain why the vibe may trend at W&M more wealthy than at other state schools. I also have an OOS student at W&M and believe it’s worth the expense.[/quote]
