The original person posting probably has credentials to be competitive at UVa and UNC-CH. I would just treat them as another set of reach schools. I should add that the numbers I posted are for the undergrad student body as a whole, not the nursing program.

UVa has built a huge new nursing building. There is a big plus from being a few feet away from such a huge medical and medical research complex, as well as a med school. Charlottesville is a great place to go to college. (My son is there, but he is not studying nursing).

UVa and UNC-CH have good need based aid for out of state students (which is not common). However, if you aren’t eligible for any need based aid, UVa has become very expensive (39K a year tuition).
