CNU
GMU
Mary Washington
Virginia State
VMI

This doesn't make any sense.

I think all the ones immediately above are 2nd tier.

Yes, and I would NOT put Tech up on the same level as UVA or W&M. No, thanks. It belongs in 2nd tier with JMU, etc.

I would put Tech as SLIGHTLY below UVA and W&M, but if your only using three tiers, I think it makes a lot more sense to place Tech with those schools than in a group with VCU.

Safe, respected enough in Virginia, but unknown and uninteresting to others.

Yes, you seem inexplicably determined to do that. I have no skin in this game, but I've always regarded Tech as first-tier.

Of course they are. After all they reject one out of every three people that apply!

No way is Tech at the level of those other two schools. Not even close.

As for Salem State? What? Salem State is in Boston, Mass.

Virginia State is a HBC and NOVA is a community college offering associates degrees. You are comparing apples to oranges.

Finally, this whole exercise is pointless. Each of these schools is very different from each other and there are kids at all of them who are succeeding, but if you are going to do it, get the list right. What happened to Longwood and Old Dominion, for example?

VT is definitely more on the level with JMU, not UVA or W&M. Just because a school only accepts a certain percentage of applicants doesn't mean they are a first-tier school; VT just happens to receive a lot of applications! You need to compare SAT and GPA's to determine where schools rank, and VT and JMU are rather close in that regard.

The comment above taking about rejection rates was sarcasm. VT accepts 66% of the kids that apply. Hardly selective.

sorry, no. For anyone with a reasonable shot at W&M, W&L or U.Va., Tech would be a safety school. It's admission rate is 60%; it's ranking nationally is #72. A good school, but not on the level of the other three.
