[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP and my DD wants a smaller school that is not so Greek and southern-feeling and she thinks she’d like to go to a school where most kids aren’t from VA. She’s not insulting UVA, which is great for people who want that type of school. Plus, isn’t UVA super hard to get into from NOVA anyway? [/quote]

According to the New York Times, there are only five universities in the US where students come from richer households than Georgetown:  Wash U, Colgate, Washington & Lee, Middlebury and Colby.  What all of these schools have in common is that they are a second choice for most students.  So, yea, if your DD prefers a second choice school for really rich kids, go for it![/quote]

How is this remotely relevant or helpful to OP? She’s not asking about wealth. [/quote]

She's characterizing UVA's student body, so I want to make sure she understands what Georgetown's is.  Fair game.[/quote]

DP.  I am a UVA alum and in my opinion you have a chip on your shoulder so big that we almost cannot see you.  If I had to do it over again, I would go with Georgetown.  I would have met a better class of people.[/quote]
