[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Correct, I wanted to be concise in my post.  DD has acceptance letters from all listed schools except VT [/b]but we are confident she will get in and she seems to really like VT.  We are in VA but we have saved enough for her to go to any of the schools so although it would be nice to have the in state tuition, it won't be the deciding factor.

From the various posts, it doesn't sound like any of the schools stand out or have a reputation as significantly better than the other.

Thank you  for the thoughts.  It sounds like Boulder is the overwhelming choice for lifestyle and I agree with this.  I just wondered if any one of the schools was considered academically better than the rest.    [/quote]

But you said she was admitted to Tech.  She can't be since Tech is ED, which means you are wasting people's time.[/quote]

And you said DD was a direct admit to Tech's B-school. That's where you should be a little more wary -- even if the B school isn't as competitive as Engineering, which routinely has to turn away top stats kids, you shouldn't be too confident about a kid not getting into liberal arts instead of her first choice.

Chill on the Tech thing people. The only people who care about Tech live in Virginia. OP, I would avoid Penn State, too many scandals, but all the other schools are good ones. I would say visit a few campuses and see how your DD feels. [/quote]
