[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are in VA and not getting $ for Pitt: JMU.[/quote]
what they said. [/quote]

IF your daughter is staying in the DMV and you need to save money.

Otherwise, no one will have heard of JMU other than around here.  I lived in Pittsburgh and never heard of JMU until I moved to this area.    Similar to locals here wondering, what is an IUP?

Pitt is a far better choice, unless she wants to stay local.

That's funny, I grew up in Philadelphia and all the Main Liners would pick JMU over Pitt in a heartbeat--for any major. Pitt was not desirable. I get that it's reputation has improved, but just like my limited perception, your view is not accurate. You cannot possibly be comparing JMU to IUP. OP: both are great schools. So with that in mind, she should decide based on what kind of experience she wants. They are very different. A few years ago, my son considered both and was leaning toward Pitt because he wanted an urban environment (before he very unexpectedly got admitted to Georgetown). [/quote]

Main-Liners. lol.     They all went to James Madison?   Of course Philly people were not into moving to Western PA.[/quote]
