Cypher card receipt does NOT correlate with Merit Aid, and, as PP notes, any Merit Aid is rare at W&M.

I was a Monroe scholar when I attended and did my summer program at a natural foods cooking school in NYC. Really awesome memories and my vegan cooking skills have always come in handy, oddly. We are heading down for a visit in a couple of weeks. It's our top choice for now.


For admitted student day with extra day for Monroe scholars? There is a full weekend in April.
