UVA vs Vandy for undergrad.
Echols Scholar for UVA, which means I don't have to take the core curriculum and I have priority course selection over other students. Vanderbilt is about 7k cheaper. These are the factors I am weighing right now. Other than that I'm looking to you guys for help. Is there truly a significant gap between McIntire and Vandy Econ? Of course there is culture and fit etc. as well, but I think both schools are fairly similar. The main differences being location and what is likely a "smarter" student body at Vandy (10% acceptance rate vs 20%). Please provide any input you have and correct me where I am wrong. Thank you!

McIntire (assuming you get in) hands down. No questions asked.
As to your student body intellect comment, McIntire students are the smartest/most well-rounded of UVA.
Woah, woah, woah, what's that say about us UVA Engineering graduates now?
UVA all the way. Especially since you get to skip the core curriculum. 7K more is definitely worth it considering UVA is a target and Vandy is a semi target.

UVA will provide you with a more structure business program and you will have to teach yourself finance technicals bc of econ at Vandy.
Personally, I was in a similar situation and chose Vanderbilt because of the prestige. I haven't started Vanderbilt yet, so cannot talk about recruiting but I would prefer overall college reputation over business school reputation. I know people will fight me about this, but students who get into 10% acceptance schools are genuinely smarter than 20%. I believe college prestige matters, but that is just one point of view.
Both colleges will be a fun time and you will do well graduating from both. Private message me if you want
mcintire is significantly more prestigious than vandy econ
UVA, big time.
