VT is a hot mess for the past couple of years. Hard pass for us.

I’m getting the feeling that VT is in financial trouble

Oh stop. it’s not A private school - it’s run by the Commonwealth. Virginia will take care of it. And the only “hot mess” there is that the outside admissions consultant blew the numbers and it got oversubscribed. All else is fine there.

They over enroll every year. Are we supposed to believe it’s an accident every year?

No, it doesn't "over enroll every year". In fact, it underenrolled three years ago which is why they brought in the consultant to come up with a better system for predicting whom, of the offers made, would actually show up.

Well, they should have kept the consultant. This year is the third year in a row they have claimed to have over enrolled.
