[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We toured VT and JMU in the same week. I was surprised that DS's impression was that VT felt like a smaller school than JMU. He loved VT and is there now. I think it came down to the layout, at least what we saw on the VT tour, felt compact and well laid out -- the academic side vs the residential side. In contrast, he got the impression that JMU was huge because of how it was spread out over the highway. He still applied to JMU but definitely preferred VT.[/quote] I have kids at both schools. I do like the way VT is laid out (residential on one side, academic on the other). But I'm also a fan of JMU's layout. If you're not a STEM major, you rarely have to go to East campus anyway. My kids who went there said that other than a few required classes as freshmen, they were almost always on West campus. At any rate, my kids are all happy with both JMU and VT.[/quote]
