[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serious question.  We are in-state for UVA and DC is deciding between UVA and another state school (don't want to name it because that's not the point).  All of their focus seems to be on "the college" and STEM education is an afterthought.  Career services seem to be quite sucky compared to the other school we are looking at.  I'd love for DC to pick UVA given the substantial cost advantage but after every information session DC attends for both schools, they walk away more convinced that UVA is not going to give them what they want.  Wondering how other STEM kids are picking UVA if there's a "better" STEM choice.  Also wondering why that is not factored into the rankings?  For eg. UCB, UCLA, Michigan and UNC [b]have really strong STEM offerings while UVA does not..

This. And if you want serious undergrad research opportunities in STEM (outside of engineering), that's something William & Mary is better known for since they are more focused on undergrads. [/quote]
