Did you actually read my post? Apparently you didn’t go to college. Read it again. S L O W.

Some poster on here thinks the most important factor to consider is the ranking of the soccer program and I beg to differ.

Don't know if that was you or another of the charmers on here but who cares. I stand by my opinion.

No. I said the exact opposite. I didn't even mention soccer. I said if my kid wanted to study engineering my first choice would be Tech. Period. Regardless of soccer. Furthermore, I'd pay the tuition (after 30% discount in the PP hypothetical scenario) over a free ride to GW.. Avg. starting salary out of Tech is higher, especially for engineers. When you add in the fact that Tech is an ACC school and my kid could play in that conference and get to go to big time college Football and Bball games and get to enjoy a full university experience (vs. that which GW offers), do real, meaningful research projects that make a difference (like Flint water issues), and get to experience the outdoors and nature and beauty of Tech, vs. getting car-jacked in DC, it is a no brainer if you can afford 70% of the tuition (which I can). BTW - you didn't express and opinion, you simply made a non-sensical statement about studying engineering a G'town (which no one said you could do). So while I may be a charmer, you're simply a moron.

And that’s the difference, most cant afford college tuition for their DDs, so they are hell bent to scream scholarship and how dare you go to pay when you can go to a college that might not fit the Bill just to save money. Well there you go, he can afford it. Problem solved.

It’s hilarious that you think you can’t have one without the other. Or is it that you are trying hard to convince yourself that low level D1 is just as good as the high level D1 with great education as well. Nevertheless, it’s not your money or kid to bother you, so good night buddy.

Oh I think you can but is it wise? I have an engineering major on my hands. I have to look out for my player and I would discourage D1 commitment with the academic plans she is contemplating. We turned down a D1 offer and I think it was the right decision. If your players wants to tackle both at once than that is fine. I would never disparage that if she can handle it. Again, good luck.

"VT may be a Top 25 girls soccer school but it’s not close on school rankings."

Yes, actually VT is close. In fact it ranked quite highly in certain fields of study, and those fields of study pay more starting salary than G'town. Yes, if my kid is going to Law school, or wants to study public policy, or getting an MBA G'town is a superior choice, but for Technology and Engineering it is Tech. So it is not as simple as you make it seem.

Back to the FCV debate. The poster that talks about players playing at the highest levels in college. Who cares? The whole point is to get your kid the best education they can get possibly for less money. Soccer is a means to an end, except those that want/can go pro in a significant (re: European) league. If they are that good, they shouldn't be going to a U.S. college anyhow. It's off to the pro club and they'll get their college degree on the side. If not Europe, they'll end up making more $$$ as a college grad in their field of study. Especially in the DC metro area.

Who cares what you beg to do, high level players want high level competition they want to compete with the best. Totally different mind-set, something you obviously know nothing about.

How does FCV fit into this is the GA?

This is different. We have superior promotion so playing in the highest level of competition doesn’t matter. Loudoun is a bunch of thieves so pick your poison

Who is “we”

You seem like a smart person. Look at the roster and tell me how many engineers in training you see.

And by the way never ever ever put Tech next to GTown when it comes to name recognition. Not close

Majoring is human nutrition, foods and exercise.
Majoring in interior design

These are the majors you see.

Let’s be honest. The real money makers will be the academic athletes

let go of your kids please.

Tech would be your first choice for engineering? What about MIT, Stanford, Caltech, CMU, GT?

Getting car jacked in Georgetown?

This is some FCV mom nonsense. Keep trying to justify your poor life decisions.

I am sure there are several on all of these teams. Who the heck do think is funding all this deluxe club youth soccer? The families that can afford it are educated professionals and are steering their kid to do the same.

Going back to the original post... FCV gets those kids in high level colleges where it matters, everything else is a business and a stepping stone.

This! It doesn’t matter what league FCV is in! We do placement like no other lazy club in the area. VT? Easy, Bobby sends 1 text. Georgetown? Bobby sends 1 email. UVA? Bobby makes 1 call. No other club can do this. They are all cash grabs for ignorant parents

Seriously. The posters in here are why the coaches insist on checking out the families before they will sign a player.

Bold statement, pretty sure, FCV dad the only losing team against VDA was FCV (When finally they played them). I also am pretty sure VDA won’t be losing very much in the near future and that on all levels. 03/04 stacked, 05 stacked, 06 stacked, 07 stacked and 08 stacked. Prediction? Not that they won’t have moments but those teams will dominated the DMV. My DD is going to McLean, however it appears those teams will have all top players from the DMV merging together and it will be exciting to see what they will do together.
