Are academics strong at UVA (or can they be)?

<p>I'm hearing a lot from both sides, and I am a prospective OOS non-ish traditional transfer (23 y/o).</p>

<p>I'm applying to UVA and wondering if anyone can comment on if academics CAN be very strong at UVA if you make them? I want to pursue the BA/MAT 5-year teacher education program. I'm 23 years old, and took a break after HS. I've done plenty of partying and really want to focus on my career now. Is there a place for less-drinking, more-studying types at UVA, esp. in Curry?</p>

<p>Any input appreciated. Thanks.</p>

<p>I was in Curry’s BAMT program for elem ed. I don’t drink. You’ll find all types. There is a cohort of PGMTs so they are sometimes more serious. Feel free to pm me with questions.</p>
