[quote=Anonymous]OP, I suspect her choice of words may have something to do with the urban nature of the school and the racial make-up of Richmond, but I assume that she was talking about VCU's selectivity. It isn't hard to get in. An awful lot of people are overly focused on their perception of the prestige of a school and, other than for specific programs in the arts, VCU doesn't have the kind of prestige that Virginia Tech has for engineering or William and Mary has for a liberal arts education or UVA has overall. But that does not mean that it isn't a very good school with a lot to offer. I am not from Virginia originally so I am extra aware that this state is incredibly lucky to have so many strong state school options. Don't get hung up on someone else's limitations.[/quote]
