[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVa is a good deal for in-state students and a good university. It's reputation doesn't travel well outside the Northeast and academic circles, though. [/quote]UVA is known throughout the county. It's not a regional university.[/quote]

It has about the same name recognition as other state flagship universities. The rest of the country wouldn't rank UVa in front of NYU or Michigan. It wouldn't even occur to put UVa on the same list. It's reputation is more like Florida or Texas or Illinois. Good, but not top 25. [/quote]

If you are in NY, Michigan carries well.  If you are in Chicago, Michigan carries well.  If you are in California, Michigan carries well.  UVA would not carry well in Chicago or California.  It does not mean the school is any less as good as Michigan.  But Michigan is nationally known partly because of the sports team.  [/quote]

UVA is a southern school like UNC or Texas. [/quote]

Yeah, except it is ranked higher and in Virginia, not NC or TX.[/quote]
