It’s not UVA nor does it pretend to be. It’s for a student who wants a supportive environment with a lot of opportunities to get to know professors. College is about that transition to adulthood. Some kids need more support than others to make that transition. Longwood is perfect for that kid.
What is he studying? What's his roommate like? Is he a quiet kid or social?

I think the obnoxious statement was that it’s a school for students who are “borderline college material.”
The average ACT score at Longwood is 21; the college readiness benchmarks for different subjects range from 22-26, so almost by definition many of these kids are borderline college material. I went to undergrad at WVU (23 average ACT) and many of the kids there weren’t college material either.
