[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]11:50 - agreed. And some of us buy in close-in VA vs. close-in MD because we think the Virginia state schools are better than the UMD system. (I say this as someone who graduated from UMD.) I'm not too worried about how many kids did or didn't get into Harvard from this school or that school. Ivy league isn't everything; she can get a good education from a lot of schools.[/quote] That was one of our factors when deciding where to buy - not the sole one, mind you. I'm a Terp grad too, and love the school. But VA has a "deeper bench" so to speak. If no UVA, there's still options like VA Tech and William & Mary, etc whereas there's a pretty big drop-off after College Park.[/quote] Meh. Your kid would have landed at JMU either way. At least now you get the discount.[/quote]
