[quote=Anonymous]Selecting a college shouldn't be ALL about the rankings. VT has a fantastic engineering program, UVA is a fantastic school overall. The student can get a terrific education at either, if he/she puts the effort in. Between the two, I'd suggest visiting each and selecting which school feels like a better fit for the student. Class sizes? Culture? Surrounding area? Focus on engineering-only vs well-rounded education? Remember, you need to live here for at least 4 years. Personal experience says that it's easier to focus and do well at school if the whole life experience is a good fit. FWIW, I work at a local engineering company. I work with alumni from both schools. There are some intense rivalries, but each group appears to have had a good education and experience.[/quote]
