Gifts to Athletics Scholarships make a profound impact by affording the most talented athletes from diverse backgrounds the opportunity to participate in collegiate athletics. Scholarships enable student-athletes with exceptional talent to attend W&M and raise the caliber of the university’s academic and athletics prowess.
