UVA vs Notre Dame

<p>I got accepted to both schools. I know i'll be happy socially at both schools. But what about the academics? Notre Dame I think has the better name, but i don't know if that makes it the better school? Whats the differences in the education? My most pressing concern is how will the economy and the UVA class size increase affect the education and the school's future?</p>

<p>Thanks guys,
Any advice helps :)</p>

<p>Notre Dame has the better name? Interesting, I thought UVA was better known. Either school would make a good choice but I am strongly biased to UVA. A Kennedy went to UVA.</p>

<p>I suppose increasing class size would take away personal relationsship between all the students and proffesors but then you meet during the week with the teachers aid to get the personalized take on the lesson.</p>

<p>Yea i guess thats true. I’m just worried about the school’s prestige falling if more kids are accepted.</p>

<p>Is cost an issue? What programs are you thinking of majoring in?</p>

<p>No cost really isn’t an issue.</p>

<p>I am going in as a Biology and Theatre double major. I’m definitely thinking about pre-med, but I’m not sure. I think i could just as easily switch my major in the first year and that’s why i think i want to make my decision on the general education of the school.</p>
