[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last year, DS was faced with the decision between UVA College of Arts and Sciences and VT Paplin. I'm happy he opted for VT and is now thriving with immense happiness. The internship support he's receiving is truly exceptional, leading him to secure an internship with a top finance firm right after his freshman year. As a PP my advice would be to have the kid visit the schools and interact with the professors and students. My DS sat in on a few lectures in spring both at UVA and VT before deciding. [/quote]

That's good to know. My older DC from a UVA future stem major (not CS) is working at a kid's camp after submitting over 500 freshmen internship applications. Not sure if it's the courses or the school. Has anyone had better luck finding support for freshman summer internships at UVA?[/quote]

What is an “older Dc from a Uva future stem major”? Are they at UVA or not? My non stem DS got a great internship after first year at UVA and built on that with an even better one this summer. there are too many factors to list to make a comparison. None of these schools are going to get them an internship though they have fairs and resume critiques at career services. Most places don’t want freshmen btw. [/quote]
UVA doesn't have the same prestige for its STEM programs.[/quote]
