[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only a handful of LACs are worth the full price, and students who can get into them can get into T10/T20 universites, which are a much better investment in the long-term.[/quote]

[b]Is going to a LAC any different than going to say UVA College of Arts and Sciences?  And if you look at a LAC like Washington and Lee, they have a business school, and even a (limited) engineering program.  [/quote][/b]

UVA is a University.  William & Mary is still designated a College.[/quote]

William & Mary is a university.  It has many graduate programs, including law, business, and education.  It uses college because that was the name given in its royal charter.  Dartmouth College also is a university that uses "college".  The prior post actually mentioned Washington and Lee, not W&M.  Washington and Lee is usually cited as an LAC, but its name is [b]Washington and Lee University[/b].[/quote]

Nope.  Name is College of William & Mary.  Period.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/College_of_William_%26_Mary.  The Commonwealth of Virginia also calls it that. The SCHEV calls it htat.  http://www.schev.edu/docs/default-source/institution-section/6-year-plans/cwm/2017/cwm-2017-six-year-plan-part-iicbf7bb50bece61aeb256ff000079de01.pdf[/quote]
