If you need to go instate, but can't make UVA or VT, then do it.

It's harder to get into W&M then VT.[/quote]

not for CS.[/quote]

Kids' stats are higher at WM.[/quote]

not for CS.[/quote]

2023-2024 According to their data page, Virginia Tech CS acceptance rate roughly matches their overall acceptance rate (57%) which is overall higher than W&M 36.5% rate.

Overall, VT's SATs are: 1250-1410, (54% submitted any standardized test scores)
WM are 1360-1510, (62% submitted any standardized test scores).
Overall average GPA at VT is 4.33 at WM it's 4.53.

So unless you can point me to a data page where the average CS kid at VT is above WM average overall GPA of 4.53 and mean SAT of 1450 (which is above VT 75th percentile)--there's nothing in this data that suggest VT is harder to get into.

you need to look at your schools scattergrams. Those numbers are not applicable unless you live in one of the adjacent counties to blacksburg or are an OOS applicant. VT does an AMAZING job giving preference to rural VA counties. Our schools admit rate is 20% mean GPA in 2023 4.55, mean SAT 1510.
  W&M has a 40% ED rate for our school for male students. Wayyy easier to get in W&M for our kids, [b]but nobody who is serious about CS would actually go there for CS[/b]. [/quote]

What a ridiculous statement[/quote]
