Worst of College of William & Mary

Parking Is Awful!

It seems like the campus police spend their days looking for reasons to give out tickets. Really, be careful. Also, it can be very difficult to find a parking spot. I tried to avoid moving my car because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to find another spot.

Sports Are Not Top Priority

There are great athletic facilities and our teams are decent based on our school's size however, there is little support by the student body.

Colonial Thrilliamsburg...

The College of William & Mary is in a bubble isolated from the community and society in general. Our close proximity to colonial williamsburg makes tourism the main priority of the area. This leads to a frustrating parking situation, expensive off campus housing with lots of regulations, and old rich neighbors who suck the fun out of everything. There are a total of three "delis" or bars where students drink and only about 25% of the students go out regularly so you see the same people all the time. Cops break up almost every decent party. It is certainly not a typical college experience. On the positive side, it's a pretty safe place to party and live and there is a sweet outlet mall close by.
