Review of Washington and Lee University

from Winston Salem, NC

Describe your college in three sentences.

I toured W&L this past year, and I had the most amazing experience! I got to sit with a guidance counselor and talk with him and my mom for over an hour about the school and various programs that I was interested in, and then I went on a tour with a senior there who was very informative and helpful and even introduced me to some of his professors. It felt like the tour was catered specifically for me!

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

All of the professors I talked to seemed very engaged and interested in getting to know their students personally.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

We didn't get to go inside of a dorm, but they were all beautiful from the outside. They also said it was very common for upperclassmen to rent a townhouse down the road from W&L as a group and live there too, and it wasn't too expensive. Variety of options!
