Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Top Questions

It's one of the highest ranked engineering schools in the country and it's cheaper than the other top out-of-state schools.

I brag about how VT has the best campus food in the country... I mean we have our own hibachi grill that only costs us an average of $7 of our meal plan...YUM!

The atmosphere. It's a great school with a great alumni base. Football games are awesome!

I brag the most about the community. It really is amazing. For such a large school, the connection you have with everyone else is very unique. The students, alumni, and townspeople of Blacksburg are bonded together by Hokie love you won't find anywhere else.

The community at Virginia Tech is one of the strongest in the nation. You can meet Hokie alumni across the world and still share that sense of pride that is cultivated in Blacksburg.

The food and people here are great!

Besides its high academic quality, there are several things I absolutely love about Virginia Tech. For one, the campus is gorgeous all year round. Secondly, we are known for having the best food in the nation. You can get anything from vegetable soup to lobster. Also, since the student body is so large with over 30,000 full-time students, the activities are incredibly diverse. In one day you can take a class in underwater basket weaving, play a pick-up game on the basketball court, volunteer at the animal shelter, and watch stand-up comedy in Burruss Hall.

We have fabulous school spirit and are a great community to be a part of even after graduation.

We have the most school spirit and because we (Virginia Tech) are such a close-knit community, the school feels a whole lot smaller than it actually is. We have a great network here - it seems like everybody knows everybody. Last but certainly NOT least, we have THE greatest football team!! The energy in the stands on game day is unbelievable! GO HOKIES!! Hokies Respect is big around here too. Hokies hold respect in high regards. Once a Hokie, always a Hokie. Virginia Tech for Life.
