[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Genuinely don't know a single person in real life or otherwise who is jealous of UVA in any capacity.[/quote] Oh I do! Ask any college counselor. Most parents in Virginia would love to have their child go to UVA but counselors find themselves saying “well Larla doesn’t have a 4.47 or a 34+ GPA so there is little chance of getting in, let’s look at some other likelys “. UVA is small compared to other flagships, so fewer in-state students are admitted which adds to the problem. We knew there was no chance DD would get in, but it’s annoying to some that they will be counseled not to bother even sending in an application. Then there are those parents whose child applied but either were waitlisted or flat out rejected. For those lucky few who do get in, UVA is a financial windfall. That drives parents crazy -hence the ignorant but vitriolic comments here and on this site.[/quote]
