What do you enjoy most about VT or your major? I really like the architecture at Virginia Tech. I'm normally not into building design, but just walking around and looking at the outside, you can see a lot of detail all over (most) buildings on campus, and I think that's pretty cool.
What one piece of advice would you give to a potential transfer student? Start looking for off-campus housing around the same time as you apply to transfer. Even if you're not sure you're going to get in, that's when the housing market for next year opens, and on-campus housing is tight, so if you want something not too expensive, I would suggest starting your off-campus housing search early.
