Work Hard, Play Harder
If sleep is of high importance to you, this is not the place for you. Plan to spend 45 hours plus doing school work each week. Plan to be heavily involved in at least one extracurricular activity. AND plan to go out for at AT LEAST 3 nights a week. Everyone here is smart and driven, but EVERYONE here lets loose. Everyone works hard, AND EVERYONE plays hard.

An Honor System That Works
The school values its student administered honor system very highly. If you choose to abide by the rules, do not lie, cheat, or steal, then you will be perfectly fine. The honor code will ultimately give you more freedom. If you fail to uphold these standards, you will no longer attend the university. There are no second chances for honor violations. With that being said, the school is very lenient with social freedoms. As long as you do not lie, cheat, or steal in regards to the social life, the school is very tolerant of the heavily Greek system.

Very Accessible
A huge portion of W&L students are here on need-based financial aid. Applying by the deadline is key. Another amazing option is merit-based scholarships. The endowment at W&L is massive and somehow seems to keep growing.
