[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVa engineering grad here - if your kid is truly committed to being a working engineer, Va Tech is fine. However, if a kid ever wants to do something different during school or after, the kid will be much better off at UVA. A large number of entering engineering students fail out, and at UVA, these students can switch over to very well respected liberal arts programs. Also, I have many classmates who have gone on to do amazing things outside of engineering (become lawyers, doctors, start companies, work on Wall street, etc.).[/quote] That's a great point. I chose a higher ranked overall university vs. a lower ranked but higher ranked engineering program and I'm glad I did. once I found out that engineering really wasn't for me, it left me with a plethora of other, strong options. That probably wouldn't have been the case had I gone to the lower ranked school.[/quote]
