Just about every other school in Virginia likes to bash UVA kids for being 'pretentious' and 'snobs.' In other words, they get called out for thinking they're better than everyone else. Well, if you went to the school in Virginia with the most stringent admissions requirements, best overall athletic program, most beautiful campus and coeds, most successful and famous alumni, the most storied social scene, that was founded by Thomas Jefferson, and all that happened to be in what was voted the #1 city to live in in America, well you'd think you were the shit too.

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.

The University of Virginia is by far one of the superior learning institutions in the world. The University is loved by those affiliated with it, and disliked by those too stupid to be admitted. This is a very well rounded school. For example, it is rare that one finds an institution of higher learning that couples an outstanding academic reputation with great D1 athletics. "Students" at other Virginia schools such as William and Mary and Virginia Tech often find themselves in awe of how awesome UVA is and how much their half-assed attempt at a college sucks. And yes, we call it Grounds and we are 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th years because we are better than you.
Loser #1 - "Awe, man, I didn't get into UVA."
Loser #2 - "Dang, neither did I."
Loser #1 - "What should we do?"
Loser #2 - "I dunno. I guess we could go to Tech and pray that some UVA grad will give us a job someday."

UVA, where we’re better than you and we think we know it. UVA is actually the biggest collection of douchebags you will ever see in one place. UVA students like to constantly remind everyone what school they go to and generally act like complete assholes to anyone who doesn’t go to their piece of shit school. Granted, UVA is a well rounded school but it’s not as specialized as some other schools. Virginia Tech is better for engineering, architecture, etc. whereas William and Mary is a well respected liberal arts school. Virginia Tech actually caries the highest average starting salary for graduates than any other school in Virginia. If prestige is the only factor in deciding your school, than its obviously best to go to an Ivy league school. If you’re looking for a school that’s actually fun to go to then UVA just blows, without question. UVA likes to call itself a party school, which I guess is true if you have a fine taste for wine coolers. UVA also claims to be the top school in Virginia in terms in athletics. Let’s be honest though, it’s not like Americans give a flying fuck about soccer or lacrosse (I apologize to anyone who plays soccer or lacrosse it’s just the truth). UVA is awful at sports that people do care about (football, basketball, etc.) but apparently they didn’t take that into account.
The personality of UVA is shockingly is similar to Buzz Killington (from Family Guy) . Think about it, he’s snobby, annoying, and no one really likes him.
Person 1: I went to UVA where did you go to school?
Person 2: Oh, _______ you know (replace blank with any random school)
Person 1: (Arrogant sniffles) Oh well, that’s too bad
Person 2: Um, I actually liked my school asshole. You’re not that special, it’s not like you went to an Ivy league or something.

Where someone goes if they have a very small penis but want to make up for it by bragging about what school they went to. Though often the average UVA student can't think of any reason to go to UVA other than academic ranking and because Thomas Jefferson founded it. It doesn't matter how ugly the campus is, how weird the student body is, or how lame the party scene is as long as "TJ" founded it. But people only hate UVA because they're just jealous ...right?
UVA student: I am so awesome since I go to UVA, I am so much better than everyone else because my school was founded by Thomas Jefferson.
Normal College Student: Wait, why do I care about Thomas Jefferson? And oh yeah you got another shipment of "natural male enhancement" in the mail today.
