The Most Underrated School in each State

About College of Staten Island in NY, I agree with its being not on the radar rather than underrated. My kid is at a private school in the NYC burbs and students apply to all the SUNYs and CUNYs. According to Naviance, CSI has among the fewest applicants from our school, 4 in 3 years as opposed to say Queens College or Hunter which get a dozen to 20 a year, or Stony Brook which gets 50 applicants a year.
Another fact that makes me wonder at the “underrated” designation is the average scores for applicants from our school to CSI: 1580 SAT. I mean, it doesn’t sound like a challenging academic environment.

About Virginia Tech, surely that’s known to be a very good school? Unless “underrated” means that it’s not just very good, it’s excellent?
