Should I go to the University of Virginia (UVA) or William and Mary?
I am torn between these two schools. Academically, I consider more or less the same, so I have to try them in other aspects such as people, housing, food, sports, surroundings, etc. Anyone have any ideas? In addition, I do not consider myself as installing either preppy rich kid stereotype UVA or W & M akward dorky stereotype (if the stereotypes are still true.)
I am a freshman at W & M and I love it. The tuition is pretty hard if you are out of state like me, in the range of $ 30-35000. But I think worthwhile. The campus is one of the best features. The building is one of the most historic Wren in Virginia and some classes are held there. History and Anthropology classes will be held probably in the "old campus", just behind the Wren building along the Sunken Garden. The bedrooms are bearable. I live in the Botetourt Complex, which are undoubtedly the worst dorms on campus, but they grow on you. It is right next to the Café, if you want food. They just built new dormitories upperclassmen from Jamestown, which are incredible. They are very comfortable from what I heard, and they are all green buildings. " Not all freshmen of the bedrooms have air conditioning, but allergies tend to develop before starting college. The student body is quite small-about 5700 undergrads. You acknowledge that many people, but not necessarily know all of them. UVA is much larger, which is one aspect that really did not like. W & M is like a community, while UVA is like a city. Some people are dorky / awkward, but most outgoing students and have a good sense of humor. … The food is slightly below average. I'll leave it at that. Athletics are not so good or so popular that UVA rays, but still fun. Zable Stadium has an intimate atmosphere for football games. The basketball team has been improving every year and this season, were one win away from reaching the NCAA tournament. And all sporting events are free for students. area surrounding the campus's not much other than a Wawa and Dellys. But if you have a car, or a friend with a car, there are actually things to do. W & M is a great place with great people. You should come here.
