[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the 90s people called it “Just Missed Uva” lots of people from my high school in Fairfax county went there. Lots of people from NJ too.[/quote]

Why has it declined so much.[/quote]

It hasn't. It’s still the choice along with VT for in state kids who Just Missed UVA. Where else? [/quote]
For the vast majority of kids it’s the back up to VT as well[/quote]

JMU’s biggest flaw is that it has 3 other more selective in state schools that are also a bargain relative to out of state or private choices. [b]But it’s academically on par or the same selectivity as a lot of other public/out of state schools like Indiana, Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan State, U Delaware, U Mass, Pitt etc.   [/b]

For Virginians it’s $35k a year COA, so much cheaper than these out of state choices.

For OOS, it’s still only about $50-55k, about the same as other out of states but not as large or far away.

Plus, employers think of it positively and I know a lot of people who have jobs after coming out of this school. Including some VPs and above at my Fortune 500 company.
