<p>I was recently accepted to University of Richmond, William and Mary, and UVa, and am not exactly sure where to go.
I am interested in the social sciences, and possibly interested in business, foreign language, and international studies.
The price of all 3 schools is roughly the same, UR being about 4k cheaper per year than the others.
I am social but dont drink. I am not very interested in Greek life.<br>
I would appreciate ANY advice on this matter, thanks =D.</p>
<p>baby come to college with meeeeeeeeeeee</p>
<p>The size of the schools are quite different, at least between UR/WM and UVA.</p>
<p>I would narrow the choices to UVA and W&M, and look at size, and campus environment. Both schools are very strong in all of those programs, though I would give UVA a slight edge in business. There's more to do off campus at UVA than at W&M, which also leads to W&M people doing more of the "make your own fun" kinda thing.</p>
<p>UVA hands down</p>
<p>LOL. This is one of the most blatant troll posts I've seen in a while!</p>
<p>hehe sorry</p>
<p>i thought it was pretty much self explanatory..</p>
<p>well, i am a prestige whore. </p>
<p>Althought WM been around forever, they just became a university statues recently(it was college before that) , maybe few tens of years ago? not sure on the year</p>
<p>I think UVA gets more prestige and is more widely known. </p>
<p>just my 2 cents and sorry for being blatant troll :P</p>
<p>^I was referring to the OP, not you! Nice of you to fess up, though! ;)</p>
<p>Interestingly, I think W&M has a much better reputation out of state than it does instate. While most people I know here in VA consider UVA to be ahead of W&M, all the out of staters who go here tell me about how impossible it is to get in out of state, how tons of kids in their high schools want to go here and get rejected, and how W&M is alongside schools like Stanford, WUSTL and the ivies. I don't know if UVA has that kind of tough reputation out of state.</p>
<p>W&M is also certainly a school on the way up. The new president, charter university initiative, and construction on campus as well as the increase in applications for the same number of spots will only cause the ranking to rise IMO. </p>
<p>(Not that I don't prefer UVA personally. I just wanted to chime in on the issue of prestige.)</p>
<p>If you are leaning towards business, UR is much better than W&M or UVa.</p>
