+1 The question is not whether Harvard is "better" than UVa.  The question is whether your kid wants to be a regular student student at Harvard or one of the top 20 in the class at UVA.   Jefferson Scholarship is more than just a free college education.  For example, at UVA, Jefferson Scholars hold the prestige positions such as the student representative to the  Board of Visitors and the best research positions.  From a job perspective, Jefferson Scholars attend private events with UVa's most successful alumni.  Also, Jefferson Scholars are all Echols Scholars and have no area/major requirements and have priority in scheduling classes, which allows students get into classes with desired professors and get better recommendations for graduate schools.

Or the question is whether your kid wants to be surrounded by 6,000 students more intelligent than Jefferson Scholars, with far more opportunities presented than to Jefferson Scholars, or bump it with 20,000 other, most from some underdeveloped rural county in Virginia. [/quote]
