    It's basically the most beautiful place on Earth, what can I say.

    Drive a bus on campus all the time. Campus is neat and easy to get around. But many buildings are not very accessible for people with a disability.

    HUGE campus. A lot of walking. People here are so nice, and i feel like it really resembles the hokie spirit and people live up to the virginia tech motto "ut prosim." This was my second time being on this campus ever, the first time was to attend my cousins graduation last year and this year going to campus was to take care of some of my own personal student stuff. I feel honored to have been accepted here as a transfer student.

    the indoor shooting range was ok in 2007 a great addition but the only problem was that the sign telling people it started in Norris hall that year was written in Korean! 32 people had an accident and they had to shut it down after that.. SMH!

    I am a 2015 graduate of VT from China.

    1. The university is nice but you will have a very difficult time to find any friends that are not your race, or the country you are from. In my 4 years, I only made 1 American friend. Just 1. We lost contact after my 3rd year.

    2. The professors only seem concerned with making more money, instead of actually teaching you.

    3. The professors do not seem to care about remembering their students. I recently visited campus on Oct 9, 2017. I used my own money to fly back here from China. I was hurt, and upset when I found my old professor (a professor I was very fond of) did not even remember me. He asked me several times who I was. I had to show him a picture of us together. Even after I showed him the picture, he still did not remember clearly who I was. He claimed "sorry, the classes were just too large". I was so hurt and upset by this. Which goes back to number 2, they only seem concerned with making money instead of teaching you. After a few years, you will be completely erased from their minds. I feel horrible that a man and a professor I thought cared about me does not even remember me, and can't even remember me after I showed him a picture of us together. I don't exactly know how to accurately express my feelings. I feel a little "betrayed".

    My professor did find me in his records, and he did apologize because he could not remember, but it does not help anything. I love the university because I spent 4 years of my life here, however now, if I had a choice to do it over again, I might have picked somewhere else.

    One of the most beautiful campuses in the USA. Consistent Hokie stone theme throughout most of the campus. Tucked away in southwestern Virginia in large town. Surrounded by nature with rural areas and small towns.

    Class of 1995. Some of he best years of my life. A lot of good eats, friendly people, and LOVE the autumn foliage. But when it rains it "Bleaksburg".

    Although I'm not a graduate of VT, it has amazing research programs.

    The town reminded me of the university town of Ann Arbor, MI. Not as expansive, but good stores, nightlife and a huge football stadium. Quite far from cities like Richmond (3.5 hours) and DC (4 hours), which are perhaps the nearest big cities and big airports around.

    Located in the heart of the Shenandoah valley, good places to hike and camp around.

    Fun fact - the Roanoke Star near VT is the world's largest freestanding star.

    Amazing school in an amazing community! The education is top notch. The campus is gorgeous. The food is always highly ranked and well deserving of it's ranking. The campus and community life gives options for everyone.

    Tucked away in the mountains with an amazing college nightlife and sports world. The scenery and architecture is mind blowing and will be a great a place to visit with family and friends.

    What a cheap university!! My child got waitlisted from the University and today received a letter that they could not offer acceptance. It was printed on tissue thin paper in all black and white. Is it to hard to print a hoky in color? Isn't this a real university? What a bad reflection on a university. It's all OK. My child got accepted by some very prominent schools that did portfolio reviews in architecture. Tech did not. See your School of Design ratings in four years.

    You will enjoy VT-Undergraduate if:
    -You like rural places
    -From Virginia
    -Want to spend $1000 a year of dues for frat/sorority
    -Have family who will support you financially (tuition/fees, housing, food, clothing)
    -Like partying
    -Care about football team
    -Want to make lifetime friends in undergrad
    -Dont care about large classrooms

    You will NOT enjoy VT-Undergraduate if:
    -You want to be in an urban place with ample resources
    -Network with graduate students/professional schools
    -Out of state or country
    -Not enough money
    -Prefer small classrooms and mentorship

    Although regardless of which school anyone goes to, if they know how to talk to people, they will make the best of their resources in life.

    (This is place is robbing me of my education).
