[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a Mary Washington grad (and UVA medical school grad), I find this thread to be ridiculous.

Look, we are incredibly lucky that there are so many schools in Virginia where a student can get in-state tuition and an excellent education. I thrived at Mary Washington and really found my niche. Having attended UVA for medical school, I am pretty certain I wouldn't have enjoyed it as an undergrad. I needed a smaller liberal arts type experience and I had no interest in greek life or sports, etc. But other people do! And that's okay! There is literally a fit for almost everyone in the state. We are so lucky to have these options, people.[/quote]

The point is, I might ask why Mary Washington?  You have an answer:  I wanted a smaller liberal arts school.  But I would not ask the same question of someone from VT, UVA or W & M.  [/quote]

How silly.  There are many reasons to go (or not to go) to VT, UVA, W&M, JMU, CNU - any school at all.  One of my kids attends JMU.  He was also accepted at Tech and UVA (didn't apply to W&M), but loved JMU and so he chose to go there.  He had very specific reasons for applying to each of these schools, and very specific reasons why he preferred JMU.

We might ask you why you chose whatever school you attended, and I'm sure you'd have reasons.  [/quote]
