Do most UVA choose UVA over privates?

The date UVA was founded was questioned by Ivy boosters. Turns out that was a mistake.

You have a sub-human lack of intelligence. Probably have the cranial capacity of a lampshade


Are you capable of forming an argument without resorting to shallow personal attacks?

Argument for or against what exactly? Anyone with a brain can see exactly what UVa is (public school) and isn't (ivy). You obviously lack this qualification and are therefore confused. I see the situation you cannot.


More personal attacks. You really can’t argue against UVA without personal attacks?

SAT:
Harvard: 1550
Yale: 1540
Princeton: 1540
Dartmouth: 1520
Cornell: 1520
MIT: 1550

UVA: 1470
William & Mary: 1470

Mad your closest peer is another podunk public school that isn't an ivy? Upset that UVa doesn't come close to ivy level intellect? You're an ant-brained infirm.

It’s over 50% for in state students.


Hopefully, you're not surprised by this or are using this to boast.

Only half of in-state students choosing a school like UVA ( T25, right?) is very telling.



Actually according to the data on their website it is 58%, and yes I think that is pretty good knowing the choices these students are presented with.

Typical of UVA students and faculty, this is false. 55%.



Lol…either way not much difference. Same theme….i think we can all agree more than half of in state acceptances are choosing UVA and many of these students are getting multiple offers from high ranking schools so yeah I’d say it’s still pretty good.

So a majority of out of state applicants aren’t choosing UVA? Isn’t that a bad thing? Sounds like people only want to go because it’s dirt cheap, not because it is elite

It is a bad thing and a consequence of the fact that UVa is not an "elite" institution by any definition of the word.


There is no universally agreed definition of elite university but any definition of elite that did not include UVA would be a pretty stupid one.

It has the yield rate to suggest that students don’t consider it elite at all.


As I said, any definition of elite that did not include UVA would be a pretty stupid one.

Not as stupid as you. If there's one thing this thread has shown it's that UVa is a place for the dumbest of the dumb.


Smart people don’t make comments like this. Secure, happy people don’t make comments like this.

I wish my high stats junior was more interested in UVA. Great school but not great for everyone.

I am sad for you that you don't realize how stupid this statement makes you sound.

UVA has a 62% in state yield rate. Apparently this means it's not elite.

What then should we think of these yields?
Brown, 63%
Notre Dame, 59%
Vanderbilt, 57%
Emory, 40%
CMU, 44%
Michigan, 47%
WUSTL, 47%
Berkeley, 48% in-state
UCLA, 52%
Amherst, 39%
Williams, 47%
Swarthmore, 42%
Bowdoin, 57%

These schools are not elite. Very telling that they have such low yield rates. Only the dumbest of the dumb go to these schools. RIght?

UVa's OOS yield is the most direct comparison that exists when comparing to privates. 16%, by the way. (startling and pathetic). A

Almost every school you list is elite.

Save UVa.

Now cold hard numbers constitute personal attacks...right...

Why don't you name one legitimate way your community university is on par with an Ivy?

Maybe don’t call people you disagree with any-brained? Maybe don’t refer to UVA as a community university? Let us know when you are ready to be a respectful person.

I won't be making it down to Charlottesville because I don't want to be lynched/murdered by white nationalists. You're free to try and blend into civilized society up north anytime you want, though. Might be ostracized once you start peddling nonsense, though.

Sounds like you’re not very familiar with UVA or Charlottesville. Let us know when you’ve done some research and you’re prepared for a civil conversation.

Sounds like you aren't either. Let me know when you've looked at the common data sets of ivies and UVa (notice that UVa is not included in the ivies category) and you're prepared to face reality.

Id argue against this, but every time on DCUM I’ve advocated that SAT scores don’t equal intelligence, it’s the UVA crowd that gets wild and slanders me, so keep going!
