Sure, but you do realize we are talking about a difference of only five students between the two universities? The annual difference is cost between JHU and Va Tech (in-state) is roughly $37k. Perhaps for some students the difference over 4 years would be considerably less than $148k. For those students that want to pursue graduate studies JHU seems to prepare its students well.

I don’t have any first hand experience on the labs at JHU. I’m just repeating what I was told when he was able to see the lab facilities at a different university (for summer research internship).
