[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because some kids actually prefer to go to Virginia Tech over UVA.[/quote] This type of comment partly answers OP's question. On DCUM VT is considered an average college. However in your typical H.S. the average students are not admitted to Tech. So part of it depends on what your definition of average is. [/quote] We live in crazy area. People terribly downgrade VaTech. VaTech is absolutely great technical school, in my books it is much better for Engineering than UVA or UMCP. 2 of my kids dreaming about GaTech (my alma matter). I would not even consider Ivy for Engineering when GaTech and VaTech are absolutely great technical public schools. I do not get that Ivy obsession. No Ivy for my kids. I am not going to pay $60 a kid a year no matter what. Call me crazy.[/quote]
