[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A few reasons why someone might think UVA is a desirable school:

UVA has the highest 6-year graduation rate of any public university in the nation. Among all colleges and universities (public and private) only the following have higher 6-year graduation rates: Harvard, Yale, Notre Dame, Princeton, Brown, Penn, Dartmouth, Williams, Stanford, Wesleyan, Northwestern, Duke, Wash U, Holy Cross, Vassar, Chicago, MIT, Cornell.

UVA has the second highest median SAT score of any public university in the nation. Only William and Mary's is higher.

[b]UVA ranks #20 among colleges/universities that produce the most science & engineering PhDs.[/b]

UVA regularly ranks as one of the most beautiful colleges in the US.

Charlottesville is often listed as one of the best college towns in the US.

Just want to clarify that the above list counts the number of UVA undergrads that go on to get science & engineering PhDs (regardless of where they do their graduate work)--not the number of those PhDs that are given by UVA.[/quote]
