Guess your kid doesn’t have the numbers for UVA, huh?

Typical UVA response.

There's someone on this board who loves to post statements like this, probably has no affiliation with UVA. Just likes to make it look bad.

Doubtful.

Went to UVa but from Georgia so spent a lot of time in Athens. I like them both but I actually love the smallness of The Corner at UVa - plus was smaller and more walkable. Athens is a little bigger. But CVille has the Downtown Mall area and Main Street has gotten much more lively connecting the University area to downtown. I also like the surroundings around UVa better - Blue Ridge Mountains are much prettier. Better hiking. Athens in general is flatter.

But, music scene is much better in Athens - and back then REM members would randomly be hanging out.

What is it with these aholes? We loved Athens. Perfect college town.

Athens is by far the better college town. Academically, UVA was more prestigious 10+ years ago, but UGA has caught up and will be the clear better school in another 5-10 years if current trajectories hold. Like it or not, the SEC era has begun.

DP- do you have anything useful to contribute? This isn't helpful.

We are OOS for both. UGA is more than 30k less a year than UVA OOS.

Why?

UVA no question.

If you pay for UGA out of state that is just stupid

Athens, a million percent

Which has the better college town? Athens or Charlottesville?
