While William & Mary has many flaws (mainly surrounding administration, housing and food) the academics are excellent with amazing professors and smaller class sizes. At William & Mary you will indeed find twamps (typical William and Mary people) whom are maybe a little reserved but are studious and hardworking. If Greek life isn’t your cup of tea you can easily find other clubs and activities to spend your time.

There are far more affordable options, but I thought that the university’s reputation warrants paying more. Huge mistake. Very few professors are trying to teach. Most classes are “taught” by adjuncts (and I use the word teach very liberally here). Teaching really only involves watching a few poor quality videos (some of which are from YouTube), read a textbook, and write a paper, on which you receive nearly zero feedback. I haven’t done a poll but a huge number of students are unhappy and would transfer if not for the money already spent. After nearly 2 years in the program, I am certain that only a couple of faculty member would even recognize my name – asking anyone for a recommendation letter, for example, would be impossible. The faculty really tries to spend as little time as possible on this program, seeing it as a quick and easy pay check. I will qualify that there have been a couple of professors who were outstanding, but they are truly an exception. Course reviews are never addressed and nothing changes. Suddenly, mid-program, the school of education raised tuition by 25% (!) citing inflation. They can and will do this arbitrarily. While this may sound like a rant it is not. I am simply hoping to prevent others from making the mistake that I have made. I was choosing between several programs and made the worst choice imaginable.
