Virginia Tech - VT
speciality: Earth & Marine Sciences

With so many resources all housed together (and many more beyond) VT offers so many opportunities outside of the classroom to experience your projected career in real life situations. The professors were top notch, the location is in a beautiful part of a beautiful state and the isolation from urban sprawl within a smallish but well appointed community makes you feel like you are part of a very special place. The on campus facilities are top notch, even though many of the dorm rooms and buildings are very old and stone covered, that just adds to the allure and charm.
