Campus Visit Notes for University of Virginia


Visit Description:

Beautiful school and presenters very smart and pleasant. You have to love red-brick buidlings with white columns.Their curriculum seems to be set up differently than some other programs. Surrounding grounds and city very pretty.

However, did not allow anyone to view any kind of dorm room, not even a mock up. Parents in tour group were not happy. They need to see such during the tour. Other colleges allowed a tour of an example of a room.

FYI for UVA and most any other college. Really think about the type of meal plan before signing on. If money left over on the plan at the end of the semester, it does not roll over to the next semester. It is lost.
