[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS is trying to decide between these two schools. He's Asian, from northern VA (FCPS), likes sports and the outdoors. plays tennis and basketball. He got into the Honors Program at both schools, the cost would be about the same (with a small merit aid award granted from NC State), and the [b]travel distance is also about the same[/b]. NC State is ranked slightly higher than VT for engineering, but does that really matter much? Probably not. Should he just decide based on his perceived "campus vibe"? Any other factors he should be considering?[/quote] I gather you assume both are driving or taking the bus...but certainly there are cheap, direct flights out of Raleigh to DC, while I assume it is either driving or the bus for VA Tech? There is also an Amtrak from Raleigh that can be dirt cheap at times. Not sure if VA Tech has a train option.[/quote]
