No VCU
No CNU[/quote]

1. W&L
2. UVA
3. W&M
4. UR
5. VT
6. JMU
7. GMU
8. VMI
9. HSC
10. UMW

Sounds exactly right to me. CNU and VCU are not comparable.

 After UVA and  W&M,  there is a huge gap. JMU, VT and GMU are frankly interchangeable in terms of student GPAs and SATs. JMU for business; VT for Engineering and GMU for on the job exp. VMI is a homegrown Citadel. UMW is a fine college.

I do not think putting  any of these schools makes sense. They all have very distinguished reputations.[/quote]

If you go to some local NoVa publics, it's easier to get into GMU than JMU, and easier to get into JMU than VT.  And there are many students who get into GMU and turn it down for VCU (Richmond > Fairfax) or CNU (smaller and better QOL).   [/quote]
