[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a UMC family we can fortunately afford to send our son to whatever college he likes the most, but from a practical standpoint if he was to get an offer from UVA what schools might be worth to pay for over the in-state discount?[/quote]

Based off of US News' Peer Assessment Scores (2022 Edition):

Princeton, Harvard, Yale, Chicago, Penn, Duke, Northwestern, Brown, Cornell, Notre Dame, Dartmouth, Georgetown, Columbia, Johns Hopkins, Stanford, MIT, Williams, Amherst, Swarthmore, Pomona, Harvey Mudd, & Bowdoin.

Virginia has the same "peer assessment score" (4.3) in US News as Vanderbilt, Carnegie Mellon, Claremont McKenna, Carleton College, Middlebury College, & Davidson College.

Lol what is the value of a “peer assessment” score?[/quote]

Somewhat like a prestige ranking. Prestige is very important to management consulting firms.[/quote]

UVA does extremely well for management consulting recruiting. According to https://www.peakframeworks.com/post/consulting-target-schools, the undergrad schools that send the most kids to top consulting firms are:

1. Harvard (no surprise)
2. UPenn (mostly Wharton)
3. UMich (go Blue!)
4. Yale
5. Stanford
6. Duke
7. Princeton
8. MIT
9. Berkeley
10. Northwestern
11. Columbia
12. UT Austin
[b]13. UVA[/b]
14. Dartmouth
15. Notre Dame
16. Vanderbilt
17. UChicago
18. Brown
19. Georgetown
20. Georgia Tech (honestly a bit surprised by this)[/quote]
