[quote=Anonymous]Both children applied and were accepted to UVA and both children are going out of state for college. They were offered enough merit scholarships at other schools to bring the cost down to in-state costs or making it free. Also they did not want to go to a school where all their friends were going (an extension of high school). If your child has the stats to get into UVA -- look elsewhere -- your child could possibly get a full ride (merit scholarships) elsewhere (Example: UMD - Bannker & Key scholarships). Rankings -- UVA doesn't rank so high on the World Rankings.
