[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The funny thing about UVa is that once you are admitted and actually on campus, in the program, looking for internships etc - you begin to realize that UVA is a very average school.

In SEAS, faculty and facilites are average at best. A lot of focus is on the campus which at this point is so preppy - but overall, I found UVA to be very average - compared to my brother who went to UT Austin and seemed to have so many more opportunities.  I had barely a couple of job offers from Fed Contracting firms.

Maybe its better for Commerce school, but sharing what I experienced.[/quote]

I[b]f you went to UVA, you would call it “grounds” not campus. So you’re clearly full of shit.[/quote][/b]

HAHA.  Good catch.  My kid went there.  Fabulous experience.  She had a better experience in my major (from an elite SLAC) than I did - since it was the same, I read the syllabi and followed the profs. Her tuition - less than $40K.  My SLAC is now $94K.  Also, DD's letters of recommendation from UVA were spectacular.  And before you naysayers look for something to pick at, we both went or are going to Yale law school.[/quote]
