Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Moira

The best thing about Virginia Tech is the group of people I have met here. You will find lifelong friends in college, no matter where you go, but it is definitely because of them that I will never regret going to Virginia Tech. Also, Blacksburg is a beautiful town surrounded by mountains and fields and woods with the New River near by, so there is always something to do outdoors, if you enjoy camping, hiking, or just hanging out outside.

Lindsey

The amount of school spirit.

Bradley

The best thing about my school is the fact that there is so much to do here. Whatever you want to do, you will be able to find here.

Eric

Football is the best because everyone goes or watches on gamedays and they're always extremely fun.

Ashley

All the people and many different types of classes available to each student not matter what their major.

Brock

I would say the atmosphere is the best because it is somewhat laid back, but a very encouraging environment in which to do well.

Samantha

I definitely have to say that everyone is really friendly and "down to earth" at my school. Everyone at Virginia Tech treats each other with respect and kindness. I have never felt intimidated or awkward around my classmates.

Renee

Virginia Tech is a large campus with a small campus feel. The buildings are very organized on campus and I feel that it is very easy to move around on campus. I also feel that VT has a great sense of pride and school spirit. If you ever go to a Hokie football game, you'll know what I mean.

Rob

The best thing about Virginia Tech is all of the people here. Everyone that I've met was very friendly. Too often, transfer students feel left out of the loop, but not here. I have never felt unwelcome by anyone here, even when I am very demanding. The students and faculty have always been helpful. The town of Blacksburg itself is also very inviting, thanks to its particular brand of Southern hospitality infused with Hokie pride. The wonderful environment at Virginia Tech is the pleasant responsibility of the students, faculty and staff, and citizens of Blacksburg.

Jessica

The best thing about Virginia Tech is the sense of community on the campus. No matter what difficulties the school has faced we've come together as a family every time to help with healing. Even though I don't know each student, teacher, administrator, or alumni I feel close to them and would go out of my way to help them. The best part? I know with out a doubt that all of them would do the same for me. The Hokie Family is why I love my school so much.
