[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA because most kids change their major, and UVA has a better reputation nationally overall. [/quote]

Actually, VT is known at tech companies for their CS and Engineering degrees. And really out of state, there is no "UVA prestige" over VT. It’s about major, GPA, internships and recommendations.[/quote]

Not nationally. No one cares about VT outside of VA.[/quote]

L[b]OL no one cares UVA either outside of VA.[/quote][/b]

Actually, a lot do.  It's no. 5 in the nation for public universities.  https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/rankings/national-universities/top-public.  And it's no 24 for best in the nation overall[/quote]

Yep It will be in the T20 very shortly. People are turning away from paying $85-90k/year for tuition to privates. And we will hit $100k/year soon. More and more are turning to state flagships.  Add in all the horrible press at the Ivies over Jewish genocide and overly snowflake whiny agendas instead of preparing competent leaders and even the largest traditional donors are turning their backs on those T10s. My son has gotten into UVA and am Ivy and we will get zero aid.  Reading the tea leaves makes the $370k Ivy vs $140k state school with ROI calculators showing the same return an obvious choice.  Not only that many big companies are saying they will not hire from ivies anymore.[/quote]
