[quote=Anonymous]For what major is this for? If your kid is going into engineering or nursing for example, it won't matter where they graduated from (within reason), as jobs in these sectors depend much more on skill than on connections. These industries have labor shortages as well so your child will be able to find a good job upon graduation regardless if they went to UVA or JMU. IF, on the other hand, they are interested in going into something like finance (private equity, investment banking, VC), or consulting; the big firms mainly only hire from certain schools and UVA would give him a HUGE edge there and justify the cost. Best of luck to you and your DC![/quote]
