University of Virginia-Main Campus Top Questions

What kind of person should not attend University of Virginia-Main Campus?

Katie

Someone who wants to slack off and party 24-7 would not succeed here. They would barely pass, but would not gain anything from their educational experience. At UVA we study hard, but we party hard too. It's the best of both worlds and you can find what balance suits you, but you will have to exert at least some effort at your studies.

Monica

Someone looking to focus in Art Education (music, drawing, photography), UVA is not a very liberal arts school

Deborah

Someone who isn't willing to work hard or keep a balance between academics and social life.

Katherine

When picking a major, just do what interests you, not what you think you should do.

Kaitlin

Someone that doesn't want to make lasting friends or attend exciting sports games, plays, musicals, concerts, or any other type of entertainment. Someone that doesn't want to work hard and play hard too.

Mark

every1 should attend this school

Jessica

Close-minded hermits.

John

Students who do not care about education or learning should not come to this school. The classes here are quite challenging, so if they are not willing to put in the work necessary to succeed in these classes, they will probably not get very far.

Joseph

Someone who plans on free riding or cheating their way through. Those are the kids that drop out. Most UVA students take the honor code very seriously and, though they will usually not turn anyone in for cheating, they will not share work or allow students to cheat off their work.

Kaitlyn

Someone who does not want to socialize.

Erica

One that wants to receive extreme benefits from the reputation and employment prospects. Will receive an Ivy league education for low cost.

Krista

unmotivated, not willing to work students. it really takes effort to do well here

Catelyn

A student should not attend this school if they desire the following: a small school, a school with smaller classes, a non-competitive school, a school with no stress on athletics, or a school with no partying.

Alex

very anti social or closed minded people.

Soyeob

A person who is not ready to accept people from different back ground than they are from should not consider attending this school. This school comprises a diverse array of people from various racial and cultural backgrounds, and if a person cannot accept this, then the person should not be a part of our school population. Also, a person who does not have a clear and motivated outlook on life should not consider this school, because although we do have fun, the fun is equally balanced with work and responsibility.

Miles

People who take academics and leisure/social activities seriously. Work hard play hard. There is a lot of drinking on campus which can make it a blast if you're witht he right people. Football and basketball suck, but the tailgates are fun. All other sports are great. I wish more conservative would attend.

Danny

Those who are lazy and are not willing to sacrifice considerable amounts of time towards their studies. At the same time, neither should students that solely focus on their studies as well. Only balanced individuals should come to this school.

Alexandria

People who are not academically committed/focused or naturally intelligent, because the academics here can be killer and really break your spirit.

Rosalind

Racists and bigots.

Caitlin

Someone interested in agriculture. This seems to be a very white-collared school.
