I have been looking during school on this computer for the last hour for some particular info on every college in Virginia regarding their admissions standards. I wanted to find something that had each school's average SAT and GPA and Cost, but after searching for an hour, have found nothing other than a site with each school's website on it. I would prefer to have all of the information laid out already, and I know there is a sheet like this. If any of you have an idea of where I could find it, I would be greatly appreciative. Thanks.

Look for the rankings. If its not free, try going to a bookstore and reading it there, or paying for it.

There are probably several hundred colleges in Virginia. Which ones are you looking at?? (I'm assuming the bigger ones--UVa, Va Tech, William and Mary, JMU, etc)

Or prep classes for certain exams, or text books, or kegs, or study aids, etc.

Those were given I think.
I hear Liberty University is good though. They keep sending me stuff and it looks like a nice place. A bit too into the religion thing though (they're Baptist) and I wouldn't be able to handle that.

Jerry Falwell's University, I think.

You never met my next door neighbors freshman year. "Text book, or 12 pack of Molson Ice? Text book, or 12 pack of Molson Ice?"

Um.........that's one way of putting it. A few prawns shy of a galaxy might be more accurate. They may have been the ones asking me if I wanted a law school that informed my knowledge of the law with my deeply held Christian beliefs.

Indeed it is.
Stricter code of conduct than BYU.

My wife went to Mary Washington College -- which is going to be the University of Mary Washington.

I would not recommend it.
Its a suitcase college.
A lot of the students go home on the weekends.

Go to Washington and Lee.
Only if you are a Republican.

There are a few Democrats there- though it is one of the few colleges in the country where you can be a Republican and not got tarred and feathered in or out of class.
Additionally, it is by far the best social environment-but then I'm biased
