DC is in UVA Engineering EA, NOVA private,  GPA 4.5w (don't know the unweighted nbr) / 1520 SAT / a ton of major-related ECs (3+ years in a row) w international/national competition results + leadership roles in these ECs / a niche sport (all through high school) w national level competitions / paid internship in major-related field.  DC is one generation legacy.  We were somewhat holding our breath given the overall strong NOVA applicant pool.  Very proud and happy for DC.

DC is also in U Mich Engineering EA.  DC's friend from the same school w 4.3W is deferred.  [/quote]

Congratulations! Same situation here!   DC got into Engineering at UMich and UVa.  Ignoring the other admits, these are top two right now.  Which school are you guys leaning towards?  What's your thought process?  Struggling to understand the relative value of UMich over UVA given the additional cost (I'd say about 30K/yr)..  We don't qualify for any need-based aid.[/quote]

Congrats! my DC did aerospace engineering at UVA. I’m happy to answer question [/quote]

Thanks! What other schools did you consider at that time? Any regrets not having selected one of those schools based on DC's career/post graduation outcomes?

Our DC wants to specialize in CS and wants to work with FAANG or other "hot" tech companies on the west coast or at a high-end consulting firm.  Not sure they know much about either culture yet but wants a degree with national recognition and reach.  Wondering how job placement is coming out of UVA for CS, especially at national companies..
