+1, seriously[/quote]

OP - kid is a recruited athlete, so this advice is not relevant - but thx[/quote]
Wow, congrats OP! Your kid must be a very fine athlete indeed. Not sure if it would work with a D1 schedule, but UT has some amazing honors programs. Check out Plan II. I really wanted my kid to apply for that.

In terms of which school, they are both excellent. We spend a lot of time in Austin, and I went to UVA for law school. Charlottesville is nice in many ways, but I’d much rather spend four years in Austin. I love the way the university is integrated into the city. I expect your child will have a preference after visiting both.

You’ll want to check whether athletes get priority registration at UT as it can be hard to get into some classes like at any huge state school. Hopefully your child will have the chance to get to know both teams and coaches before deciding. One of my kids is playing a D1 sport and the team and coach dynamic has had a major influence on his college experience. [/quote]
