I appreciate that W&M supports both the more exciting one for those who can afford it and the sensible one for those that save money. Neither is a "bad" option at all but they may appeal to different people in different situations.
My thoughts exactly. DS could benefit from a bit of a break (12 credits community college not a bug stressor).

+2 The fun of a study abroad semester can be a nice carrot for choosing the delay-start option and still is lower cost than a lot of comparable private schools.

Why would anyone choose the verto option when it's nearly $30k? I'm genuinely curious. Even for people with the money, it seems like a lot. Also, later on there are many affordable and better study abroad options once admitted to W&M.

What is the community college option - I thought you had to do a semester abroad.
You can do community college if you prefer. Just need 12 hours and a 3.0 for the semester.
Wow - it seems like almost anyone waitlisted would want this option -seems like an easy and affordable way to get into William & Mary.
+1 It's a great option.

Are any waitlisted (spring pathway) kids planning on attending the admitted student's day?

Does anyone know if you can attend the Day for Admitted Students if you’re considering Spring Pathways? Technically you’re not admitted, you’re still on the waitlist.
When your child logs on to the portal, is there a link to register? If so, then your child can probably attend; otherwise, probably not.

I would just email them and ask. But I get your point.
