<p>VCU is becoming more popular. In our area it is not considered a safety school anymore. In fact, several students were shocked when they were not accepted last year. When I went to my child’s orientation seven years’ ago many of the students said VCU was not their number one choice. When I attended with my other daughter this year every student I talked to said VCU was their #l choice. There are several reasons for this: the music/arts/design programs are great; there is more to do in a city (better job prospects too) and VCU’s basketball team is awesome! VCU Rams have alot of spirit and enthusiasm. . . . Go RAMS!</p>
