And then we give Nana her medication.

I’m reading a book “Sex and Vanity”. It’s fictional about old money and international wealth and old New York families and all of the main characters went to Brown- and exclusive privates like Spence, Mrs.Porters, international boarding schools. A lot of literature and film use Brown.

Some of these answers I don't get. Sure, being a snob makes sense in Princeton, New Jersey- it has that douchey "I'm better than you" vibe all around. But Williamstown, Ma? Really? It's basically like sending your child to Albany-not that much to be snobby about.

This thread is joke full of strivers who never set foot in any of these…..

Only 3 in the US. The rest is the rest. HYP + Oxbridge. The rest is the rest. Cry all you want strivers.

But, it is public. So not much snob appeal since anyone can go there.

Anyone can go there? What??

Clearly new to college admissions and have no idea how impossible it has become to get in to UVA or W&M instate.

It’s harder to get in OOS.

VT has actually passed W&M per USNWR

Yes but the “average” W&M student is more cerebral than your “average” VT student and everyone knows this. Outside of CS- VT can be significantly easier to get into. Not the same kids at all. Typically.

VT is still ranked better which will attract stronger students. Deal with it.

VT's lack of snob appeal is its appeal.

USC does not have snob appeal.
