University of Richmond thoughts

The figure may be subject to revision, but College Kickstsrt reported a 21% acceptance rate for Richmond this year. I sincerely am disappointed for any applicants excited about Richmond who were not offered admission.

I have been waiting a few days to post this because I wanted to think things through but my daughter and I did the admitted students day at IR and it was not at all what we were expecting. This is a super weird school. We both hated it. I wanted to like it but everything was terrible. Run -don’t walk - away from this school.

Can you elaborate?

Visited recently and it seemed perfectly normal and nice. This is a weird thread.

It really is. It is a lovely school. If you are lucky enough to get in go visit.

We visited. Not impressed. But luckily lots of other schools out there.

My nephew graduated from U of R last May and really loved it. He had an amazing education and opportunities for semesters abroad. Great internship program as well. He even got a job a year before graduation through his internship. It was a great experience, campus life had many opportunities.
