[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of it is alumni - have you ever met someone who went to UVA who didn’t love it? [/quote] There are many schools that have loyal alumni and boosters. Many schools have a higher alumni giving rate than UVA.[/quote] [b]A lot of people cite the endowment. But about half of that belongs to the medical system, law school, and Darden. Not a single undergraduate.[/b][/quote] You can characterize UVA's endowment however you want, but the bottom line is that its undergraduate financial resources are strong enough that it is one of VERY few public colleges that is need blind in admissions and guarantees to meet 100 percent of the financial aid needs of any student it admits. Its ability and willingness to do this is one of the many reasons why it is rated as high as it is. [/quote]
