    Nice Vid man! I think I'm going to Virginia tech as a transfer student! VT is the only top School in VA (apart from W&M I believe) that has a Criminology/Criminal Justice degree and English literature which are two of the Majors I really want to study. I wanna be a Law Student and need the best most reputable school, with the best academic record to get into a really nice law School, I believe with the convenience of transfer, and the available Majors VT offers, It is perfect for me!
    I live in NOVA, so the school is really far from home which is a bit scary ngl, but worth it. The school has a modern twist to Gothic architecture which I LOVE. Really excited to be going here! I am interested in STEM majors but for my career path I can't pursue it! I was thinking after Law School I could study some sort of stem major for my Doctoral Degree :)

    Hi Tyler, thanks for showing us and sharing us about the campus and dining halls and the sports stadiums. Especially during this time period. 😊 I would like to ask a question, I’ve been accepted to study here, but I am nervous about how foreign asians/ POCs are treated at VT because I heard it’s a mostly white community. Hope you can share your honest opinions. Thanks!

      Out of the approx 30,000 students, there are about 18,000 that are white. The remaining 12,000 are not. So they are very embracing of everyone. The campus even hosts an International Street Fair which allows the community to come learn about different cultures, crafts, food, etc...Everyone comes together here. As far as the community of Blacksburg, it’s extremely welcoming to all races/ethnicities. It’s also very supportive of the campus community as well. And during football season, just about every tailgate or party will welcome anyone to join them. It receives several accolades each year & is consistently ranked among the best places to live along with one of the safest in the country. Check out stepintoblacksburg.org/our-community/ There should really be another video about Blacksburg and things to do around the area. There are several outdoor adventures to be found here; walking trails, hiking trails, lakes, rivers, etc... The resort that was used in the film Dirty Dancing is about 15min away & still fully operational. The Appalachian Trail is in close proximity. There’s kayaking, tubing, swimming, and one of the best areas to experience all 4 seasons (especially the fall colors). And if you like parties, well, they have plenty. If you like bars, they have more than plenty. But if you want a great community environment in the backdrop to match a great college campus, then the answer is Virginia Tech. ;)
