[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Can we please stop discussing Liberty? It's completely out of the question for DC.

So far, thank you for the helpful responses. We are going to look at:

Longwood
CNU
WVU

Are there any others that would be a good fit for a sporty mainstream child that are akin to JMU/Penn State/VT but more for a B profile student?

OP, I haven't read every post but have you checked out Delaware? My kid sounds a lot like yours and loved it. He has older friends who are very happy there. Also, loved Pitt. And I second the rec for Loyola Maryland. It is smaller but very friendly and sporty feeling and has D1 basketball.

Also, for what it's worth, I know that it can feel a little alienating to have your target schools be other NOVA kids' safeties, but you are doing the right thing looking for a good fit for your kid. And there are benefits that I hadn't expected. My oldest daughter got into more selective schools but her process was very stressful. My son's application process has been fairly painless and he has gotten in everywhere so far.[/quote]
