[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean I think the issue is that there is no place for above average but not really high GPA kids. It’s either you need 4.0+/high test scores to go to WM/V tech/UVA/now JMU or you go to school that accepts most kids. There is no middle of the road.[/quote]

No you don't need high test scores and 4+ GPA to get to JMU. I know a girl who is now a rising sophomore who had barely a 3.0 and very average scores (1200) who got off the JMU waitlist. That being said, those that don't get in there can do GMU or CNU. There is TONS of middle ground. There is literally a state school for everyone in VA.[/quote]
Ok name the schools in VA that are middle ground.  It used to be VA Tech (non engineering) and JMU but that’s not the case anymore. [/quote]

Sure, already did.
JMU is absolutely still a middle ground school, CNU and GMU. Tech for non tech people is pretty reliable too.[/quote]

VCU and ODU are also middle ground schools.  MWU is also not too bad for what it is.

Longwood and Radford are the equivalent of Frostburg State and Salisbury State.[/quote]
