<p>Yarr! For a bit of U.Va.'s winter charm, check out:</p>
<p>Lighting of the Lawn is an annual party on the :awn featuring a cappella groups, speeches, and of course flipping the switch on the lights on the lawn. </p>
<p>As chocholic said though, winter does make spring all the sweeter.</p>
<p>keep in mind of each school's undergrad population as well...</p>
<p>Michigan has 6000 students for each year, UVA's half of that</p>
<p>do NOT go to UVA if u want a good engineering major. otherwise, UVA is welcoming u!</p>
<p>michigan has a better international reputation, but i'd argue that uva has a slightly better student body academically, alexandre wouldn't agree w/ me on this. but, i personally think so. uva is kinda preppy tho, since most people come from NOVA</p>
<p>You are correct Thom, I disagree that UVA has a better student body. It is impossible to say one student body is better than another when you have over 100 students...let alone over 10,000 students. Obviously, Harvard has a better student than Witchita State University, but top universities usually have excellent student bodies.</p>
<p>i'm tired of this fight between uva and umich. since i 've fought it for a month on my own behalf. what about: uva sux, umich rulez</p>
<p>to the thread starter: toss a coin :)</p>
<p>I think Uva has a cuter student body.</p>
<p>Kayz42,
I have a U-M VCD and some info I can send you. e-mail me if you are interested. I live in the same city at the moment.</p>
<p>"I think Uva has a cuter student body"</p>
<p>i love u barrons :)</p>
<p>sledding in the arb on a moonlit night is great.</p>
<p>Thank you so much.
I think I might actually choose umich in the end. My friend's sis just graduted from umich and she's telling me how ppl in uva r more conservative.
but barrons said uva has a cuter student body! and i'm still quite worried about the weather. and the difficulty of the courses, coz i heard it's really tough! =(</p>
<p>congrats, go for it</p>
<p>i bet every international student would choose michigan over uva, it's just the way it is. if u choose uva, ur parents would be like :are you mad or what? what is heck is uva? community college?</p>
