[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bottom line: VA Tech needs to become more selective. Many students are realizing what a good option it is, in spite of its location. I see it as the next Georgia Tech in terms of selectivity.[/quote]

Um, no.  They are one of the only schools who is decreasing in applications submitted AND their scores are also dipping, while everyone else continues to increase.  They are not being selective.  They just said they are taking in more pell grants, more URM's, more first generation kids.  That is not being top tier selective at all.  Come on now. [/quote]
where are you getting your information from? Because that's not what their Common Data Set says at all. Do you have a link or a source? This is what I found from their CDS:
Fall 2014 - 20,744
Fall 2015 - 22,280
Fall 2016 - 25,000
Fall 2017 - 27,423
Fall 2018 - 32,103
Fall 2019 - I can't find an exact number but website says over 32k[/quote]
But but but but that ruins the self-constructed narrative I have in my head!!! Facts? I know better.[/quote]
