William and Mary is a test optional institution, meaning that applicants are not required to submit standardized test scores for undergraduate admissions. Additionally, the college allows self-reporting of test scores, which enables students to submit their SAT and ACT scores informally before final submission. Currently, 43% of applicants choose to submit SAT scores, while 16% submit ACT scores, with some students submitting both, resulting in a combined percentage that exceeds 100%.
