You think DC UMC people arguing about prestige of top 20 college have never been to the northeast? Where in the world did you get that idea? |
Just the ones south of the Potomac! LOL |
I lived in Boston for 20 years and they don’t care about schools down here either. Georgetown? Pft. |
Too busy at hallowed halls of Northeastern. |

DP I have a lot of relatives who are lifelong NC residents. Their opinion of Elon is that it caters to UMC/affluent whites who skew conservative. |
Its a great school. It gets maligned because it's a state school that most state kids have no shot at... that pisses off alot of people. Good thing is that VA has a smorgasbord of other very good state schools (W&M and Tech in particular) but JMU, GMU etc as well. People hate that it's so hard to get in.... and if you do get in, a great deal for a top public at a super price. Now some people can say, oh it's too preppy, or oh i don't like their stupid traditions etc, but those are just shallow preferences. If your kid likes it, go for it. |
If your kids likes it, go for it. Agree! UVA is a target of hate because supporters say every NoVa students wishes they could attend. It's obnoxious. |
The schools that receive the most hate from insecure trolls are the ones in which people note how happy their kids are there. There’s a certain type of DCUM poster who feels they have to belittle any school which is popular and known for having happy students. |
Probably UChicago. Good school, bad neighborhood. Plus expensive & cold and snowy most of the school year. |
Because they weren’t accepted? UVA can’t accept every kid in Virginia. |
what a weird comment |
It just means her parents are too poor to send her somewhere else. |
Lol you’re bitter and on copium |
+ sad. |
