Thank you. So... they anticipate sending good news... what could make it go the other way? Other than bad first semester grades? Should DS send a thank you note?


No thank you note. As far as your other concern...your child has done well in school I suppose? Do you have some feeling they are going to all of a sudden get bad grades? Continue on the path and if their desire is to attend W & M than it is a pretty good certainty they will.

OP here - in state, MCPS.


Isn’t MCPS Montgomery County? How is that in state for Virginia?


OP here: Sorry, clearly not multi-tasking very well. We are OOS, MCPS.

Just checked the mailbox. Also got one card from W&M: Hope to see you on campus this fall!

It’s a likely letter and is good news.


Yes, it's a likely letter...congratulations if your DS is interested.
