[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It isn’t always worth it for a family to put a huge stress on their finances for an impressive school. UVA produces very successful students and was likely much cheaper. I get it. The Ivy brand isn’t necessarily a good purchase if you, say, hurt your retirement. [/quote]

UVA is barely top 25 and they are very weak in STEM and CS.  It doesn’t attract top students.[/quote]

Hey, guess what? There are many other majors that aren’t STEM or CS. And UVA is very strong in a lot of them.

If you’re majoring in something that will likely require a PhD to get a decent job, it absolutely makes sense to go to a cheaper, but still solid, undergraduate school. With the right preparation from highly-qualified faculty, a top graduate program is  entirely possible—and you’re less likely to be starting out in debt.[/quote]

Stop feeding the barley 25 not strong in STEM and CS troll please.[/quote]
