[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^[b]I think UVA has aspirations to be considered the top destination for ivy and ivy-equivalent rejects. This aspiration and being a state school do not go hand in hand. [/quote][/b]

Why not?  UVA tracks with UCLA and Berkeley now.  Depending on the ratings it is second or third in the state school line-up.[/quote]

U[b]Va wants to compete with the privates that have traditionally been the next-best choice by ivy rejects (i.e. Vandy, Rice, Emory, GU, WUSTL, ND etc). [/quote][/b]

Huh?  bad list.  UVA swept past those a number of years ago.[/quote]

[b]Lol...you’re funny.  Outside of Virginia, UVA has a fairly mediocre brand.....nowhere near a UCLA or Michigan [/quote][/b]

You need to keep up.  UVA no. 1 public university in America by Business Insider, ahead of Michigan, UCLA and Berkeley.  http://www.businessinsider.com/best-public-colleges-in-the-united-states-2016-8#4-university-of-california-at-los-angeles-11[/quote]

[b]Who cares about business insider...no one thinks of UVA as the # 1 public.  that is by far Berkeley, with a brand that uva could only dream to match. UCLA, UMich are also better regarded than UVA. Plus these are all publics, UVA is not on par with top 20 privates, get a grip please. [/quote][/b]

That hurt, didn't it?  UVA ahead of Michigan, UCLA and Berkeley[/quote]
