[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You JMU alums are so jealous of Virginia Tech.  JMU is not even a real division 1 school.  Tech is an ACC school and is ranked as a top national university. It is also one of the top research grant receiving institutions in the world. JMU is a fine regional university but it's not on par with Tech in admissions selectivity or anything else. [/quote]

JMU is now getting more applicants than VA Tech and JMU is a smaller school.  The SAT scores of admitted applicants are pretty similar.  JMU now seems to get the students who just missed getting into C of WM and UVA.  As for the ACC, most students could care less about college sports.[/quote]

This is a joke.  How can all the posters ignore the data about SAT scores and GPAs of accepted students?  For all of those statistics, VT is "better" than JMU.  JMU might be "better" for one kid and VT better for another but if you are looking solely at the academic achievements of the accepted students, VT is "better." [/quote]

Depends on the major. JMU undergard business school is ranked top 30 in the country according to Businessweek.  VT is not top 50...though Pamplin is good...[/quote]
