[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid got into honors at uva, for "top 5% of applicants." Exciting, but also applied to Harvard etc. Would it be better to be part of the "top 5%" at uva, or average at Harvard, assuming my child gets in? UVA honors implies opportunity to standout from the start, with the opportunities that may accompany that, I guess, but is that reason enough to pass up the harvard credential/connections? OOS, so it's not vastly less expensive to go to UVA. Kid is interested in CS, engineering and stem more broadly, but not sure re career or grad school, etc.[/quote] And anyone have experience with uva honors and perspective to offer?[/quote]
