2)William and Mary
3)VTech
4)Richmond
5)Hampton Sydney
6)JMU
7)Sweet Briar
8)Mary Washington
9) GMU
10)VCU
Technically 11 on this list, due to 1a and 1b. I would say that W&L is better if you want a small school/can afford it, and UVA is better if you want a big school.</p>
<p>Villanova should be on the top 5 list for PA.</p>
<p>Top five for PA? Villanova?</p>
<p>How about Penn, Carnegie Mellon, Swarthmore, Haverford, Penn State, Pitt, Lehigh, Bryn Mawr, and Bucknell to name a few?</p>

<p>Wyoming only has one 4 year university and 7 community colleges, so i guess they’re all top 10!</p>
<p>This is ranking in terms of the strength of students before and after they graduate. (So all the Nobel Laureates from Stanford are worth 0.)</p>
