[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA wants to remain elite and relatively small for a state, er Commonwealth, flagship.  It will continue to proceed accordingly.  Maybe bitter OOS applicants’ parents can focus more on helping, say, Rutgers, reach its full potential.[/quote]

I doubt there are many “bitter” OOS applicants.  It’s not like UVA has strong prestige nationally. [/quote]

I know this will offend but no one I knew in the Northeast ever mentioned UVA as a reach or safety. It just wasn’t on our radar at all.[/quote]
That’s anecdotal and meaningless. I’m from Westchester County, NY and people definitely knew UVA was a top school. [/quote]

And my uva dd’s two best friends at school are from the Boston area. One had a 35 ACT and was a top student at her private (I know this because I helped her with her resume). In fact, most of her circle of friends are from out of state. But you’re right, no one outside VA knows about it.  :wink: 
Really doesn’t matter to anyone what anecdotes people pull out. Employers know and that’s all that matters. [/quote]
