[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your student is not interested in engineering, the GPA/test scores of admitted students and acceptance rate at VT will be similar to JMU. [/quote]

Evidence/citation for this assertion?  [/quote]

Not true for business either. My ds was waitlisted and never moved from waitlist for VT, but was admitted to the honors college at JMU.

Vt publishes all kinds of data by major and demographics, go look it up. [/quote]

Engineering and Business turn down a lot of very good students[/quote]

Why is the overall acceptance rate over 60%? Does any other major university have such a gap between a handful of majors and everyone else? It just doesn’t make sense. [/quote]

It’s not. As stated upthread (and cited!) in-state acceptance is 47%. According to VT itself, overall acceptance was 54.8% for most recent data.

VA generally & VT specifically put out very detailed data. Google is your friend, y’all

You can look for acceptance data by major, college & departments filtered on demographics [/quote]
