Although he will be surrounded with peers who have similar attitudes. It’s a great school, especially for undergraduates, but it unfortunately does have a reputation as a consolation prize for kids who couldn’t get into the higher ranked state universities.[/quote]

My kid didn’t experience this at all. Many of the kids at JMU had it as their first choice and loved being there. It’s a great school filled with happy kids. [/quote]

Yes, there are plenty of kids at JMU who had it as their first choice.  But the higher achieving NOVA students typically don't.  Apparently OP's kid is among them.  [/quote]

Plenty of higher achieving NOVA student go to JMU and crash academically the first year. USNWR ranks VA 15th for its education system. NOVA isn’t special compared to the Northeast.[/quote]
