My son is a freshman in engineering at VT… We are OOS and knew very very little about the school, but it has a very good program for the specific kind of engineering he wanted. Honestly, it was a safety school for him and we didn’t think too much about it UNTIL we visited. We were blown away by the campus, the staff and the students… It’s like you have stepped straight into a college brochure. He got accepted into all of his chosen schools, even the reach schools, but ultimately chose VT and I think he wonders why he ever considered anyplace else. It has, so far, just been an incredible college experience for both him as a student and us as parents. If you can find any way to swing a visit, I highly recommend it… Good luck!
