Neither one has much school spirit. *except mens basketball
I disagree. Wake's football team is doing well and plenty of kids go to the games. 'Nova' s bball program is usually pretty god.

Wake Forest is a NOVA annex-if you want a different vibe than McLean, Bethesda, or DC go elsewhere!

No comparison. Wake Forest has some amazing professors. Much better population of students.

Villanova is filled with entitled babies.

Country club vibes is I think what OP is getting at.

Maybe try Lehigh?

Hope your DD finds a school befitting her non-judgemental self.

They both seem way too expensive but my DD wants a middle size school with school spirit and a pretty, non-urban campus. Her ideal school would be more diverse though and have less of a reputation for being stuck up preps. (Maybe that has changed a bit?)

Would love thoughts and opinions from people who have visited, applied or had kids attending.
