The University. Thomas Jefferson's University. Oft disliked by applicants without merit. Stunning history and current status. Oldest engineering school in Virginia. First true public, non-religious college in the United States.
Traditions. Leaders. Class. Thomas Jefferson lives.

A top 25 school consistently rated as the #1 or #2 public school in the country. A school where 95% of the kids who attend graduated in the top 10% of their high school class. A school where you have to earn your grade, because you're competing against the best of the best.
JMU & VT are both great schools. Virginia is one of the best states in the nation for incredible colleges. But neither are quite at UVA or W&M's level.
UVA - 29-31% acceptance rate
VT - 67-70% acceptance rate
JMU - 67-70% acceptance rate

VT engineer - "I go to Tech, I'm an engineer. Where do you go?"
UVA student - "UVA. I'm a bio major"
Radford students - "Those are some freakishly smart dudes...let's get out of here and go get drunk. Then let's go to a VT football game and pretend like we are Tech students because they're good at football. And we like football."

The University of Virginia was founded by Thomas Jefferson in 1819. UVA is the number two public school in the country and is ranked 23rd nationally at the same level as Georgetown. This beautiful school is rife with tradition and beauty. All one needs to do is walk around grounds on a spring day to see way all of the students at this storied institution love their school. The traditions at UVA are interesting and unique. From streaking the lawn down to the statue of Homer then kissing him on the bum and then running back up to the rotunda to say goodnight to Mister Jefferson to steam tunneling in the underground system of tunnels which brings heat to the buildings around grounds. Students here are committed to learning and improving the world around them. Some famous graduates of the University of Virginia include Katie Couric, Robert F. Kennedy, Tina Fey, Woodrow Wilson, and Tiki Barber. Students can be seen at all hours of the night at the 24 hour University library, Clemons, studying and writing papers. These students committed to excellence, have a no cheating, lying, or stealing policy institutionalized in the honor code and upheld by the honor committee. This single sanction code ensures Professors can trust their students and that students can trust each other. Those members of the University community who cannot abide by the honor code are removed from the University. Most students love the honor code however and would not get rid of something that makes their school unique. The University of Virginia is one of the best schools in the world and the premier undergraduate experience.
Person One: What did you do last night?
UVA student: Pulled an all-nighter in Clemons
Person One: Wow! Why?
UVA student: Because I had a paper due yesterday, another paper due today and a mid-term on top of all that. But I got it all done.
Person One: Wow, that seems tough, especially with spring break last week. You must be really smart
UVA Student: Yup, that's why I go to UVA

UVA - Uppity Virgin Asylum (none of you are ever getting laid unless its by accident)
A school full of cookie-cut preps who are taught by teachers that somehow they'll all rule the world. The majority of white males there are issued clothes from Abercrombie and Fitch along with penis enlargers and a How-To book on fitting in, while all other races there try to emulate them. Fraternities consist of burnt out alcoholics trying to have sex with ugly girls, all the time touting their future as rich economists who will ultimately come to embrace the idea of suicide when they realize money can't buy friends and families. Most of all, as the other definition entries attest to, UVA students spend the rest of their lives trying to validate their pitiful snotty existences by downing the other well-known Virginia schools that actually have students with intelligence, personalities, and humility.
(Please note: Asian prep males at UVA are the most pathetic people on earth. Please let them know that expensive clothes and cars do NOT make you better in bed, nor do they increase penis size. You are JOKES.)

Just look around for the people with their noses in the air. No worries, they'll develop back problems later in life.

1. a college that was founded by thomas jefferson
2. a college which prides itself on the fact that they can become, but somehow fail to recognize the fact that half the people who designed their hospitals went to Tech. Go figure.
3. An pedantic and asshole-ish institution that actually blows at football, and doesn't go to many bowl games, unlike the Tech squad which will be going to its 14th straight bowl appearance at the end of the season.

"UVa was founded by Thomas Jefferson. You know, the guy who said their shouldn't be a constitution because he was an antifederalist and firmly supported the drafting of the articles of confederation. Yeah that lame-ass"
"The UVa grad insulted Tech, calling it a "Cow College" as he walked into the multimillion dollar hospital designed by a Tech grad."
"I would never go to UVa."

Arrogant, self-righteous assholes who use their daddy’s money to do whatever they please.
Worshipers of Thomas Jefferson, their student population goes as follows:
90% of students in Yacht club
85% White, an occasional asian or two rounds out the rest.
75% of students won’t talk to anyone from another university in Virginia.
100% scared of UMBC.
