[quote=Anonymous]My daughter looked primarily at lower-tier Virginia schools (i.e, not UVA, W&M, Tech). After touring, she hated: JMU--central campus is gray and dismal looking, campus split by a highway. Just didn't feel as warm as other campuses. Longwood. We were hoping this was a hidden gem, but alas their Open House was amatuerish and the students we met seemed very provincial. Mixed feelings about VCU School for the Arts. She (and I) didn't like that the arts program was scattered among several buildings at the edge of the campus. I worried about her safety traveling around at night; she was expecting more cutting-edge facilities and equipment. But she loved the vibe of the art students and the main part of the campus. Pro Tip: If there's a school you really want your kid to love, don't go on dismal day. It's amazing how much weather affects their opinion.[/quote]
