[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, DC parents don’t have much choice. If I lived in VA, I would send the kids in state. You have great options! I was faculty at one of the big VA universities and dealt extensively with another big VA university; there is little difference between the undergraduates at both schools despite what DCUM says. [/quote] +1 The "2nd tier of VA state schools" are very good and by default of UVA and VaTEch and W&M being so challenging to gain admissions have many top students attending. While yes, Radford or Longwood might be different than UVA in its student population, the 2nd tiered ones are not. Also, Radford (if you want nursing or education) and Longwood (if you want education) are excellent choices and you will have some top students who choose it because they get merit and know what they want in college and choose a great program for that.
