    Will learn a lot

    I've had the chance to sit in on an econ class, and from that one class it is clear that the professors are top-notch. The academic quality of the school makes it worth the hefty price tag.

    Will enjoy being here

    Located in the South, everyone is so super friendly and hospitable. The campus is absolutely gorgeous and being an outdoorsy girl, it's a perfect location to go outside and enjoy the mountains

    Bang for the buck

    It's a pricey school, but if you work hard (and apply for the Johnson Scholarship) it can be affordable. Hopefully it will pay out after graduation.

    Tips for prospective students

    Definitely apply for the Johnson Scholarship, even if you don't get it, the Scholarship Competition is a great way to really get familiar with the campus. And have a teacher proof-read your essay before you submit it!

    Great for these types of students

    It's great for anyone who knows they want to go Greek since Greek life is a big part of the school.

    Smaller campus to walk around, cute town, and endless outdoor activities along with tons of greek life is what I saw.

    Great for these types of students

    The campus is beautiful and it seems the people are too... At first they seem a bit haughty but everyone is very welcoming, nice and very fashionable!

    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!

    Academic Rigor

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

    Dorm Life

    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!
