Another name for the University of Virginia. It's a public university in Virginia that, for some reason, gets a ton of hate (even from its own students), but in actuality contains some of the most genuinely down to Earth people you'll ever meet. The environment can be competitive, but most of the time the students are sincerely happy for one another and proud of each other's accomplishments. It used to have a "preppy" vibe to it but is now considered more hipster/retro. Parties are full of guys in flannel and skinny jeans and girls in jean jackets and chokers. UVa students don't take rivalries too seriously, except in basketball, are far too nice to roast neighboring schools on Urban Dictionary.
Girl 1: I can't wait to visit you at UVA! What should we do tonight?!
Girl 2: Actually, I'm performing in my final baritone concert tonight! You should come see it!

Girl 1: What!?! You play baritone?! How could I have known you for all these years and never known?!
Girl 2: I don't know...it was just never brought up in conversation...I'm sure you have a ton of talents you've never told me about!

Mom: Son, I'm so proud you made the Dean's list! Why don't you post about it on Facebook like your brother?
Son: Uh, I mean at UVA, people don't really talk about GPA. It'd be considered rude to post about on social media.

Mom: Well at your brother's school, everyone posts about making the Dean's list...
Son: Yeah, well at UVA, no one does...

A top tier school in Charlottesville Virginia. Founded by president Thomas Jefferson in 1819. The school is generally filled with two kinds of people. The people that made all A's in high school and should go to this school (minority). The rest of the school is filled with daddy's little girls and preppy faggots who didnt do shit in high school and have parents who donated a large sum of money to the school and thus got accepted because duh the school wants to make more money of daddy. Its easy to tell the differnce between the two groups even from 100 yards away. The people you see walking around in ties, sundresses and pearls are the students who bought their way in to school, note these students wear these cloths because why wouldnt you wear that if your first car was a brand new mercades and you have unlimited use of your parents platnuim cards? the second group are the students you never see because these are the students that worked their asses off to go to school here and are trying to keep the straight A's. It's a damn shame that nobody seems to understand the the reason UVA is a good school is because of these students are are making straight A's are jacking up the average for the school.
(The fallowing is a normal day at UVA)
Nerd: I am so happy I got in this school I worked so hard in high school to make all A's.
Typical Preppy Bitch: Like OH MY GOD Im so happy daddy paid large amounts of money for me to go here, like Ima go get drunk and then pass out.
Typical Preppy Faggot: Hey there sexy would you like to take a ride in my new porsche? my dad just bought for me last week casue I crashed the Lexus and needed a new ride. Hey you like my popped collar and docksiders yeah im so cool.
Nerd: You mean to tell me that I am the only person who accutally had to do my own work to get in here?
Typical Preppy Bitch: Like who are you and why are you talking to me?

A University in Virginia that students attend in order to brag on a website about how good their school is. They typically do this in order to keep up their overinflated views of themselves while they sit in their apartment sipping on a fine glass of chardonnay, merlot, or Zima, as they have just finished their one hour of homework for the day.

Students of this false-Ivy League school enjoy the finer things in life, such as living off their parents' credit cards, driving expensive automobiles their parents bought them, going to dinner parties with strict dress codes, and wearing suits and bowties to sports that are traditionally viewed by fans wearing comfortable, utilitarian clothing such as T-shirts, sweatshirts, and jeans.

In addition, they promote Thomas Jefferson to an exalted level unseen by even avowed Libertarians, and insist on calling their rival school "Va-Tech," despite nobody else in the world, not even "Va-Tech" students, referring to the school by that name.
Asshole 1: "Hey, did you watch the football game the other day against Va-Tech?"

Asshole 2: "No, I was too busy getting wasted on three bottles of Zima at that big dinner party last night."

Asshole 1: "Ah, well we lost as usual, but all the babes were looking mighty fine in their pearls and sundresses! I impressed them with the $200 bowtie I bought last week with daddy's credit card. Oh well. At least we're still decent at all the sports that make no money for the school because the American public doesn't care about them."

Asshole 2: "Boy, I'm glad we go to UVA so we can be pompous assholes together!"

Founded in 1819, the University of Virginia is one of the most amazing schools in Virginia, and the country for that matter. UVA is the only North American college or university designated as a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, which means it is preserved as a "site of outstanding cultural or natural importance to the common heritage of humankind." Located in Charlottesville, VA, rated one of the top cities to live in America in 2004, UVA is consistently at the top of the public school rankings list. UVA is situated near 'the Corner' which is home to a multitude of restaurants, collegiate merchandise shops, and bars, including 'the Biltmore,' which was rated the number one college bar in America by Playboy.com. UVA is also home to over 30 national fraternity chapters and 16 national sorority chapters. UVA's grounds have been graced by such public figures as Queen Elizabeth II, Desmond Tutu, the Dalali Lama, John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Ted Kennedy, and Franklin D. Roosevelt. UVA also attracts many major performing artists, namely the Rolling Stones, the Roots, Dave Matthews Band, and Eric Clapton. The Virginia Cavaliers have won 16 recognized NCAA National Championships, 13 of them since 1980, with at least two national titles each in five different sports.
In summary, I can't wait until the fall to go back to UVA.

An overrated liberal arts school located in central Virginia, UVa was founded by slave-owner and womanizing adulterer Thomas Jefferson in 1819 -- seven years prior to his death, and in declining mental health. UVa has flourished since its creation, boasting not only the integrity and adherence to each and every one of its founders personal tenets, but also the dissemination of self-assurance, elitism and lazy thinking. Today, UVa's student body is comprised mostly of over-privileged, cocksure trustfund babies who haven't the vaguest idea of what hard work really is. UVa boasts a top-notch medical school, law school and business school; often, the medical and law schools are referred to as "the sequestered bastions of hard work at UVa." While not entirely accurate, the number of UVa undergrads who lean on the prestige of their medical and law schools are indeed multitudinous. Moreover, the undergrads who espouse this elitist mentality and constantly evoke UVa's academic prestige to placate irrepressible feelings of insecurity, confusion, and even sexual inadequacy, are, ironically, people who could never gain admission to either their law school or medical school -- regardless of how many pairs of loafers or khaki shorts they own.
UVa student: Ah yes, I matriculated to the University of Virginia -- one of the premier academic institutions in America. I see by the garish colors that don your person that you're either a fan of Virginia Tech or an alumnus. Indeed, the latter of the two is probably just as easy as the first since the requirements can be met by any country bumpkin. Although generally laconic, I feel that because of the aforementioned reasons I must be exceedingly verbose so as to impart to you my perceived greater importance. What's more ...

the school you go to if you care about life after college. sure, i guess in the short run it pays to go to the college that wins all of its football games, because then you can brag about your football team to cover up how bad your school sucks, but then what happens after college? yep, you turn into an alumni who sucks balls, probably animal balls at that since you graduated with a degree in some type of farming from virginia tech. do you really need to go to school to learn how to plant things? anyway, students from UVA only seem stuck up to the people that didn't get in. deal with it. go play some football and be proud of your turkey mascot while i make the money and hump your mom...and never call her again.
