Virginia Tech or VCU??!?

I actually was around VCU (had a baseball tournament in Richmond) and I really did not like the campus. The area was dangerous (so many gangs at nighttime, geez) and it didn’t feel like a ‘campus’, if you know what I mean. I didn’t get any college-town vibes.

If things like that don’t bug you, then go for fit. It seems like you’d be much happier at VCU, so I suggest to go with that school. The less competition will allow you to make better grades and stand out amongst your peers. If you really like VCU, go there and don’t think twice about it. Throw out prestige when you make your choice and when you do that, it seems as though you’d pick VCU.

Good luck!
