[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid also has this two options (among others), and we toured both campuses.  She liked both campuses and food in UMass is indeed better!!  She spent the night with VT ROTC cadets and really liked it and thought she fits in very happily in UMass too.  So, OP, I understand your struggle.  One thing that differentiate the two is that for UMass she will be the few NOVA OOS kids while for VT, she will be among the tons of NOVA kids.  Does your kid like to be the special OOS kid or the in-state kid?  For my kid, among her other options, she has UIUC and Pitt.  Right now she is inclining to pick UIUC because of ranking even though she does not like the campus.  She may change her mind ...[/quote]

OP again - Mine got accepted to UIUC too but no merit so it’s off the table. She got a lot of merit at UConn but doesn’t like how isolated it is. [/quote]

I thought UIUC has yet to release merit scholarships information due to the FAFSA delay?![/quote]
