[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Good grief, it’s a state school. It primarily serves in-state students. Why does the admission rate have to be in the single digits to be a good school? [/b] It has its strengths and weaknesses like every college: -better at STEM majors -big school: lots of resources, no hand holding, must be able to self-advocate -it’s in Blacksburg. It’s not DC or NYC, but it’s pretty. Isolating for many though. -like most state schools, there are weed out courses. Be ready to have a back up major.[/quote] I don’t think you are getting the question. It’s not whether tech is a good school or what it’s pluses and minuses are. it’s simply why is there such a disconnect between the profile of the incoming class and the acceptance rate? [/quote] ETA. Even University of Lynchburg and Liberty have lower admission rates than Tech despite having much lower SAT’s and GPA’s I’m simply trying to figure out what accounts for this. [/quote]
