[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid graduated with 3.0 from one of the big 3 private schools, and got rejected by UVA. He spent a year at NVCC, got a 4.0 there. He transferred to UVA after his freshman year via the Guaranteed Admission Program. He is now a junior at UVA with a 3.9 GPA there. He said that classes at the big 3 private schools are much harder than UVA. Classes at NVCC are ten times easier than classes at the big 3.[/quote] Perhaps this happened under an older set of rules, but this is not how guaranteed admissions at uva currently works. The kids need 54 credits, 45 earned at the community college-- they must earn an AA degree, and then they only have 4 semesters to finish at UVA. Other guaranteed admissions schools don't have such strict rules, but UVA makes it difficult. You could, of course, transfer in after 1 or 2 semesters, but it wouldn't be via the GA route.[/quote]
