[quote=Anonymous]I only visited a few, for my own college experience. My kids will be at this point in two years. So, this is some 25 yo info. We visited UVA, JMU, GMU, and W&M. I needed to go in state due to cost, so my parents picked these for me to go see. I removed UVA from the list. I didn’t feel like I could belong there. We were solid middle class at this time, and I had grown up at times in poverty. My parents were immigrants and I guess the day we were there for whatever reason all the students were in basically business/smart casual dress. The guide showed us the lawn houses and there was just so much talk about traditions. I wasn’t sure I’d feel comfortable there. If my kids want to see UVA, and if it’s a real possibility, we’ll visit. Unless my kids have a huge chance at scholarships that can bring the cost of a private to in-state, we’ll only be visiting in-state VA. [/quote]
