[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Neither school has a strong national academic reputation, although Penn State -- because of its strong sports programs -- is certainly much better known. I wouldn't pay for either of these schools out of state (when there are far better and more impressive state choices, like Michigan, UVA, etc.), but if I lived in Pennsylvania, I'd choose PSU, and if I lived in Virginia I'd choose VA Tech. [/quote] I'd also let instate tuition decide between these two schools (and DD will probably go to Tech next year). And I personally cannot get beyond the S scandal for PSU to be an option. That aside, PSU is ranked by USNWR at #37 and Tech is #70-something plus? Say what you will about USNWR rankings but it's hard to see that and say these two schools are "comparable" in national academic reputation. [/quote]
