Yeah. So have mine. So are we.

AND my kids chose not to attend UVA. Annoying as Fkkk student body. Hardcore striver syndrome. It’s like a bunch of travel sport parent and tiger Moms on crack.

One chose an Ivy and the other one W&M.

You don’t think anyone reading this actually believes you. Right?

NP. I believe them. What part don’t you believe? My husband and I are both alums, along with five other close family members. We have a history with the place, but if my DD were to get in to UVA and WM, I’d probably advise her to choose WM. Just a fit thing.

I said I don’t believe THEM. Not you. They obviously have no class. No way they spawned an Ivy League kid.

UVA was built in 1819. It is completely landlocked by the town that grew up around it. So it cannot expand further unlike the huge California publics. Nevertheless, there is an entity called the UVA Foundation whose mission it is to buy up real estate when available.

WM is one of the 6 public Ivies. 1693 —way before UVA

If you are going to post like this, learn your history. UVA was one of the first public ivies - here - not W&M! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Ivy.

W&M gets added in by other comers long after the intitial list was created and published.

WL IS
3.9/4.4 1550 lots of APs. Private.
ECs ok but not much leadership.

Is ok, probably going to another great flagship!

I used a collegevine profile to estimate chances for kid and so far it’s very accurate.
