[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's more on the radar now than it used to be, since it has become much more difficult to get into UVA, William & Mary, and to a lesser degree, VT. [/quote]

Agree as a VA resident.  And I know several VA educators who LOVE JMU for their students.

Like an earlier poster, DD was a weighted 4.0 at a more rigorous FCPS HS this year.  We (and her counselor) considered it a "safe target" and she was accepted, but decided to go to a similar-sized OOS "1 step down from flagship" state school that offered enough merit to level the COA with in-state at JMU.  It was a very tough call for her in the end, though I suspect the deciding factor was to get out of state and away from the dozen-or-more kids from her HS (and hundreds from FCPS) who were going to JMU.

Can I ask what your daughter's classes were like?  My DC is 2027 hard to figure out if she is on target with course selection for JMU.  
She'll finish this year with Honors or above in all English/Math/SS - Took AP World and now AP precal.  Honor bio, reg chem/physics, next year ap env. sci. Will take honors eng/ss along with AP Calc BC.  so 4 AP total at graduation.
We are at a large relatively well thought of FCPS.  she will finish this year with 4.05, no C's.[/quote]
