[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not a UVA alum or fan, but I think UVA is comparable or superior in both Ugrad and Grad.

Georgetown has halo bias in DC, but rest of country does not see a difference.[/quote]

If you pay the difference, don't do it for the prestige. Georgetown is not that big of a deal outside of DC.[/quote]

I think there is a bit of GU hate on this board.  Georgetown is certainly well regarded across the country and having lived in different parts of the country I would confidently say that it is held in higher regard than UVA.  But for me personally it wouldn't be worth the cost premium but I have no idea where your child's interests lie.....which I would hope would factor into the equation.[/quote]

Sorry to blow your bubble but most outside DC will not know the nuanced difference among many schools in that area - except possibly JHU and Naval Academy - both in Maryland. [/quote]

Georgetown has no cache here in Chicago[/quote]
