[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Right, pp. Should have made clear that I was assuming that the student was admitted to both schools. Kind of an odd situation that it can be easier for a Virginia resident to get into PSU than into Va Tech (which, again, is much lower ranked if one puts any stock in USNWR). Is that because there is a shortage of spaces in Virginia public universities or a surplus of highly-qualified students in Virginia? [/quote] I'd say surplus of highly qualified students. Every year I hear of a number of really smart kids who don't get into engineering at tech. And I am one of those who do think that Penn State is overrated in USNWR. Part of the boost comes from their sports (minimized a bit by pedophilia scandal) and location -- which is more accessible than Blacksburg or West Lafayette, IN where Purdue is. [/quote]
