Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Finance  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright UVA was a great experience socially for me. I met lots of great people that are friends today. I do wish I had challenged myself more as a student. Had I been in more of an academic environment rather than a social environment I might have done better in school which would have definitely helped me get started in my career. If I had to do it again I would have gone to more of a teaching school like W&M or Davidson and then come to UVA for my MBA. UVA doesnt carry the prestige outside of the state that it does in VA( I live in CA). Overall though I am satisfied and enjoy pulling for the Hoos in football and B-ball.

I fully intended to spend my 1st year figuring out how to transfer elsewhere. UVA and Charlottesville, however, changed all of that. I fell in love with the aesthetic of the grounds, and despite many reports to the contrary, the variety of different people here. While the Greek community may be a little (or a lot) homogeneous, the "city" of Charlottesville and many of UVA's own students have a lot to offer. I was fortunate enough to be in two majors - linguistics and communication disorders - that offered very individualized attention and a spectacular academic experience that have prepared me well for grad school. I can't imagine having gone anywhere else. Preparedness: A, Reputation: A Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.

It has been my dream school for several years, and I was so excited to be accepted. I love grounds, Charlottesville is great, and the people are way too friendly. I was more and more impressed with each visit I made to UVA. Football games are definitely a blast and I'm excited to get involved in Greek Life second semester.
