[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many, many NOVA families pick UVA over Georgetown, and many more who figure they’re likely to get into both don’t even bother applying to Georgetown because they know they won’t go there. It makes zero sense financially, academically, or socially for any Virginia resident whose kid can get into UVA to go to Georgetown.[b] It is not a popular school south of the Potomac.[/b][/quote]

Intersting statement. I hav a family member at Georgetown and almost all of their cloesest friends are from North Carolina, Georgia and Virginia.[/quote]

I was talking specifically about Virginia, where it makes a little sense to go to Georgetown over UVA.

But, since you brought it up, College Factual reports that in a recent entering class at Georgetown there were only 21 students from NC and 26 from Georgia, as compared to 211 from New York, 159 from California and 139 from New Jersey.  Virginia is only the sixth most represented state on the Georgetown campus, despite being just across the river.  The school is heavily northeastern - more students from Massachusetts than Virginia and just as many from Pennsylvania.  Your relative and his friends are clearly in the minority.  [/quote]
