[quote=Anonymous]As a parent of a happy JMU senior and someone who also knows a number of happy CNU students, I agree with it not being worth your kid upending their life over transferring. OP: is your kid unhappy at CNU? With their major, socially, etc.? They are really different schools, size-wise (4700 for CNU, closer to 20,000 undergrads at JMU), climate-wise - mountains versus closer to coastal, etc. They both have great things going for them but I wouldn't say prestige is one of them. Separately, the USNWR shift of JMU from regional to a national institution is the result of a Carnegie reclassification of JMU from a "masters" level university to an R-2 doctoral university with a high level of research. I think it is based on how many doctoral candidates and/or grads. But it is definitely not based on national recognition. [/quote]
