Mercer is an option.

GA actually has tons of good popular (to Georgians) colleges for in-state options, for kids who want to stay close to home. Plenty of good private and public college options in GA.


Oglethorpe (in the Buckhead area of Atlanta) is another. They have a guaranteed flagship match.

We loved Oglethorpe but it's not large and social like JMU, if that's what OP is looking for.

You're right Georgia Southern, not a fit for everyone though. Can be conservative.

Kennesaw State

Georgia State


It’s very easy to get into. Much easier than JMU.


OP here. The question is not about stats or admissions. The question is are the students similar socially.


Thanks, grandma. I was responding to a different post.

Let’s not pretend JMU is anywhere close to selective.


Not based on last admission cycle.

Sed headed in that direction.


Huh? JMU has a 75% acceptable rate.


NP.

The “huh” response just makes you look like an idiot trying to be clever.

Last admission cycle was different. They’re becoming more selective due to overwhelming number of applicants.

The JMU boosters don’t understand what selective means. Hint, 69% isn’t close. See UVA for an example of selective, not VT.

UGA 30,000 undergrads and a 50% in state acceptance rate. The quality of student who just missed UGA is not the same at the kid who just misses UVA

Not the case for Atlanta privates and metro Atlanta top high schools.


You think good students from top Atlanta high schools are going to Georgia Southern? Auburn and Alabama are the safeties, not Georgia Southern


Mostly Auburn and Clemson…

You JMU fappers have been parroting this NoVa line for years. Facts are facts. JMU is a decent second-level state school in the vein of Miami-Ohio or College of Charleston, but nothing more than that. Regardless of where you're from, getting in is the basic expectation, not a lofty achievement.

VT is barely below 60 and GMU greater the 90

Down to 69% zin 2024. https://www.acceptancerate.com/schools/james-madison-university

plus, with their sports success and moving to being a national university rather than regional, probably bound to go down more.


VT is barely selective. You’re kidding yourself if you think JMU will pass VT.


Nonsense. As recently at 2019 JMU had a lower acceptance rate than VT. Get over yourself.
