[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is VT off the table? No like it? It would be more difficult to qualify for UVA than VT (even in engineering). [/quote] My son wasn't fond of Blacksburg, VA and doesn't want to spend 4 years there. So he did not apply. He was accepted to UVA. He was also accepted to UMD but it costs so much more. [/quote] It would be crazy to choose UMD over UVA even if both were oos to you, let alone UVA is in state. The friend circle of UVA CS graduates that I know of all are working at Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Capital One. They got recruited right on campus by those company recruiters.[/quote] Anecdotes aren't very useful in making decisions. You might be saying the exact same thing if you'd gone to Maryland. Both schools have great STEM programs.[/quote] UVA is not great in STEM. It’s considerably weaker than the other top public universities. [/quote]
