[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] DS will go back to both schools for admitted student days but thinks he has a preference for UVA mostly because it is ranked much higher and has the prestige value in looking for jobs and applying to grad school. While he really liked the vibe at U of Miami (what's not to like with the warm weather and palm tress), he feels like he may always find himself having to explain to people that he attended Miami because they gave him a lot of money. [/quote] The difference in ranking between 25 and 46 is pretty insignificant. He's not turning down Harvard. In the rest of the country, U of Miami is at least as prestigious as UVA. It sounds like it might do him so good to get out of his little Virginia bubble and experience something of the rest of the world.[/quote] OP says they were admitted OOS (out of state) at UVA so he is not in any Virginia bubble [/quote] Except the one he’ll walk into at UVA.
