there&#8217;s good news: william and mary has gone test-optional for three years, starting with the 2020-2021 admissions cycle (class of 2024).<\/p>\n<p>however, it can still be useful to look at william and mary sat scores. why? they not only tell us what the school&#8217;s looking for in its students, but they can also tell us about the selectivity of the school more generally.<\/p>\n<p>with that in mind, here they are!<\/p>\n<table id=\"tablepress-448\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-448 tablepress-responsive\">\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"row-1 odd\">\n<th

#tablepress-448 from cache --><\/p>\n<p>the composite range of 1300-1490 puts william and mary in highly selective territory. a score of 1300 falls into the 90th percentile of sat test-takers, while a score of 1490 falls into the 99th percentile.<\/p>\n<p>taking a look at the division of those scores: math scores are slightly higher than verbal (evidence-based reading and writing) scores, but not significantly. this tells us that the school&#8217;s looking for relatively well-balanced students.<\/p>\n<p>80% of successful applicants in the class of 2023 took the sat. however, as the school is going test-optional&mdash;at least for the next few years&mdash;we&#8217;d expect those stats to drop soon!<\/p>\n<p>a quick note that <strong>test-optional<\/strong> is different from <strong>test-blind<\/strong>. william and mary admissions will still consider your test scores if you include them in your application. and if you&#8217;re scoring in this range, we highly recommend that you do!<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"#contents\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.catharsisit.com\/hs\/files\/2017\/08\/back-to-top-button-1-e1502493700147.png\" alt=\"back to top\"

william and mary sat scores, william and mary act scores are pretty high. but don&#8217;t let that intimidate you: remember, the school is test-optional through the 2023-2024 admissions cycle. <\/p>\n<p>if your scores aren&#8217;t where you want them to be, you can let the other parts of your application speak for you instead! on the other hand, if your scores are in the w&#038;m average act score range, they&#8217;ll only help your admission odds. <\/p>\n<p>with that in mind, here are the william and mary act scores at a glance:<\/p>\n<table id=\"tablepress-450\" class=\"tablepress

these compare to the school average for sat scores? they&#8217;re slightly higher, percentage-wise, translating to a 93rd-99th percentile act composite score. <\/p>\n<p>in this case, the 25th percentile-75th percentile of english scores (31-35) are significantly higher than the math scores (27-33). however, don&#8217;t read too much into this: remember that the act has four sections, and the school didn&#8217;t release data for the science or reading sectional scores. <\/p>\n<p>again, if you&#8217;re struggling to pull your scores up, keep in mind that there are no act requirements at w&#038;m. you can also take the sat&mdash;or, in a pinch, not submit any test scores at all!<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"#contents\"><img decoding=\"async\"

is now out of your hands. if that&#8217;s the case, don&#8217;t panic! there are still things you can do to boost your chances of admission.<\/p>\n<p>chief among these? if your gpa is significantly lower than average, submitting high standardized test scores on the act or sat can help show the admissions office that you&#8217;re ready for college-level work. even if you&#8217;re only able to put

students. however, this may shift slightly from year to year to maintain the balance in the entire population (for example, last year it was 67\/33).<\/p>\n<p>after virginia, the states sending the

isn&#8217;t in the ivy league doesn&#8217;t say anything about it except that it isn&#8217;t part of a particular athletic conference. yup\u2014that&#8217;s the only thing that unites harvard, brown, columbia, et al.<\/p>\n<p>in terms of quality, prestige, and sheer age (it was founded in 1693&mdash;the second oldest college in the states!), william and mary is up there with the most elite schools. us news &#038; world ranks it in the top 50 universities in the us. so if that&#8217;s what&#8217;s holding you back from applying&mdash;don&#8217;t let it!<\/p>\n<h3>what is william and mary known for academically?<\/h3>\n<p>william and mary is generally known for the high quality of its undergraduate teaching; it was ranked #4 in the united states for this!<\/p>\n<p>more specifically, poets &#038; quants ranks it as #15 in its list of the best undergraduate business schools, while the princeton review ranks it as #10 for the best science lab facilities.<\/p>\n<p>among william and mary students, the most popular majors are social sciences, business and related subjects, biological and biomedical sciences, multi- and interdisciplinary studies, and psychology. it&#8217;s also got a great <a href=\"\/\/www.catharsisit.com\/hs\/college-admissions\/top-computer-science-programs-for-women\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">computer science program<\/a>! as you can see, this backs up those rankings quite well!<\/p>\n<h3>what else makes william and mary unique?<\/h3>\n<p>in addition to its age, its high teaching quality, and its excellent facilities, william and mary has a close-knit student body. all freshmen and most upperclassmen live on campus. their small class sizes help build this community: the average student-teacher ratio is 11:1. <\/p>\n<p>it&#8217;s also known for its athletics: william and mary is a division 1 school, so you can expect to see some good games!<\/p>\n<p>finally, william and mary is known for its illustrious alumni. three presidents (thomas jefferson, james monroe, and john tyler) went here!<\/p>\n<h3>does william and mary give merit scholarships?<\/h3>\n<p>they do&mdash;and they&#8217;re pretty generous. on average, students received $4,385 in merit scholarships in 2021. <\/p>\n<p>their programs include the <strong>william &#038; mary scholars<\/strong>, which gives students the amount of in-state tuition and fees, <strong>monroe scholars<\/strong>, which gives students a $3000 research stipend, and <strong>1693 scholars<\/strong>, which includes full tuition, fees, room, and board (equivalent to in-state levels).<\/p>\n<h3>which is harder, uva or william and mary?<\/h3>\n<p>it&#8217;s very, very\u2026very close. <a href=\"\/\/www.catharsisit.com\/hs\/college-admissions\/university-of-virginia-admissions-the-sat-act-scores-and-gpa-you-need-to-get-in\/\">uva<\/a> ranks #26, with sat scores of 1340-1520 (25th-75th percentiles) and act scores of 30-34 (25th-75th percentiles).<\/p>\n<p>on the other hand, william and mary ranks #39, with sat scores of 1300-1490 (25th-75th percentiles) and act scores of 30-34 (25th-75th percentiles).<\/p>\n<p>based on those stats, it&#8217;s fair to say that uva is ever so slightly harder to get into than william and mary. admissions rates make it even clearer: uva&#8217;s is 26%, while w&#038;m&#8217;s is 38%. <\/p>\n<h3>does william and mary have an engineering program?<\/h3>\n<p>not in and of itself. instead, the school has a combined degree program with columbia university. you can either spend three or four years at william and mary, then two years at columbia, to get a bachelor&#8217;s degree in your primary subject from w&#038;m and a bachelor&#8217;s degree in engineering from columbia.<\/p>\n<p>however, if you want to study entirely at william and mary, you can also do that through the physics department, selecting their engineering physics and applied design undergraduate track.<\/p>\n<h3>does william and mary have greek life?<\/h3>\n<p>they do! william &#038; mary has 16 fraternities and 13 sororities. however, if you don&#8217;t want to participate and are worried about missing out, keep in mind that less than a third (31% of men and 29% of women) participate in them.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"#contents\"><img
