[quote=Anonymous]I think it's slipping in the hierarchy is mostly attributable to the rise of CNU and the merit-aid pricing game with similarly ranked LACs. Used to be if you didn't want a huge school and didn't get into W&M, UMW was the next best option. Now CNU has a shiny new campus + sports and that appeals to a lot of students. And, kids who do like UMW have a lot of LAC options in neighboring states that can match in-state prices. That's what happened with my DD. She had no interest in the big VA schools, hated CNU. Her in-state choices were W&M (waitlisted) and UMW. But, she liked a couple PA LACs better and ended up at one of those. I'd have loved for her to go to UMW, I think it has a great program for her interests, but she's happy where she landed.[/quote]
