lisieux, there are so many great schools in the US that it becomes difficult for employers overseas to recognize them all. Many of my friends who are international students return to Singapore and Hong Kong to work for big i-banks and prestigious firms. Do you have any idea what you might want to study in college?

UVA is pretty strong in all the fields they offer. If you're considering business, then there's no question you should come to UVA; McIntire has been ranked #2 by BusinessWeek behind Wharton for two years now. Because of McIntire's extraordinary program, the biggest banks and firms come here throughout the year to recruit UVA students. Econ students here, however, also land themselves a job at these firms. Along with UPenn, UVA is always a target school for prestigious banks and top consulting firms.

Accepted: University of Mary Washington, University of Richmond, UVA
Waitlisted: Harvard, Swarthmore
Rejected: Princeton, Yale

I dropped off the Swarthmore list and stayed on the Harvard list, but just for kicks. I kinda want Harvard to accept me, just so I can tell them "No thanks, I'd rather go to UVA!"

Im from SE VA
Accepted: UVa, Virginia Tech, VCU, Clemson, Penn State, U Maryland, U Pitt, ODU
Denied: Johns Hopkins University

I never sent a mid year to JHU so that was probably the reason I was denied. I chose so many schools to apply to because I was really indecisive but I narrowed it down to Pitt, PSU, Maryland, and UVA and decided to be a Wahoo!! Maryland would have been my choice because I loved the campus and the Eng program but it is muy muy muy expensive so I chose UVA. BUT I am so glad I did choose UVA because it is an amazing campus and the people there are amazing as well! Wahoowa!
