[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d love to know which local colleges gave you pause after you researched or read up on them? (Local used broadly meaning anywhere in the DC, MD or VA areas) What did you learn or find out that caused this pause in your consideration?[/quote] VA Tech after learning nearly all move off campus sophomore year, meaning you have to find roommates and housing October of freshman year. And the off campus housing isn't even walkable to campus, so you have to take a bus or have a car. The bus depot was a huge turnoff. Didn't think my kid was ready to cook, grocery shop, live off campus etc so early on. And huge stress to have to find housing just after arriving at college. [/quote]
