My son’s friends at UVA are more the granola/outdoorsy type.
In all honesty, you are going to be surprised in April. UVA is WAY more gorgeous than you realize. It has an authenticity that only a score of other colleges have on Grounds as they say…and a mainline into US history that has to be felt to be appreciated.

don’t skip the beautiful garden behind the Rotunda.
The Rotunda on the Lawn is a sight every American should see.
UVA is very close to Richmond and to DC in many crucial ways yet you would be going to school in what is also horse country…rolling hills in central VA.
