Campus Visit Notes for Virginia Tech


Visit Description:

I went down to Tech 5 times over the period of two months to visit my girlfriend, and to tour the school. On my trips I explored various aspects of the college ranging from the gyms to the classrooms to the dorms and everywhere else in between. I fell in love so quickly I forgot all of my other college aspirations.

Hotel/Lodging Recommendations or Comments:

If you can't get a place in Blacksburg or Christiansburg, Roanoke is about thirty minutes north on I-81.

Dining/Restaurant Recommendations or Comments:
