Do not pay any attention to those stereotypes. UVA students are all incredibly interesting, unique, open-minded, and nice. You may see a lot of khaki and polo shirts, but that is definitely not all there is to UVA.

While I do think many students dress in a manner that suggests that they are preppy, there are a significant number who don't and I've found that it doesn't really matter. Independent of dressing style and background, I think you'd find that the majority of students are really nice. As far as drinking, I do think that it is prevalent and can seem ubiquitous. But there are students who don't drink and it's just a matter of finding your own niche.
