You could check out the HBCUs in Virginia. There is, of course, Hampton, and also [five others](White House Initiative on Advancing Educational Equity, Excellence, and Economic Opportunity through Historically Black Colleges and Universities | U.S. Department of Education) that you could look into. I don’t know anything about them except for Hampton (and the only thing I know about Hampton is that it seems to be quite strict, at least on freshmen students), but they are worth a look into. I’m not saying that the students at HBCUs are inferior to their PWI counterparts, but I’ve noticed HBCUs, for whatever reason, tend to be more accepting of the 2.8s and 1500s and Cs on transcripts of their matriculants.
