[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thought UVA wasn't as pretty as I was expecting and Villanova was bland. Both are terrific schools, so no knock on them otherwise. [/quote]

UVA is only a World UNESCO site. Try harder next time[/quote]

Not anymore.

I’m a sucker for gothic so I also found UVA underwhelming.

Yes, the most important factor in college choice - The VIBE. The architectural style of the school buildings as a factor in school choice - you do deserve the stress of college admissions. Wishing you more.[/quote]

You seem confused. This thread is about campus tours/architecture/vibe. Not academics or other factors.

This thread is about what impression people got from tours, which definitely includes academics.[/quote]

Sounds like you needed to do more research ahead of time if you didn’t know about the academics until the tour.

For example, the school where my kid applied ED is known for their project based learning. We of course knew that before touring, but my kid was even more excited about it when hearing specifics from the tour guide.[/quote]
