Mac Ross, '26, on Choosing #URichmond
For Mac Ross, '26, #URichmond was a surprise addition to the list of schools he was considering, but it quickly became the top contender after he saw campus. Coming from the Chicago area, he didn't know any other Spiders at UR, but it didn't take long for him to find his home in the Web. Chicago-area Spiders (students, family, or alumni!), drop a ❤️ below! 🌎 What city should we interview a student from next?

What's the weather like at UR?
We think the weather in Richmond, VA is a great mix with a little bit of everything. Plus, our campus shines in every season, so it's hard to pick a favorite! What was your favorite time of year at #URichmond? ☀️🍂❄️🌷 ☀️ Summer in #RVA tends to be hot and humid, with frequent thunderstorms and rain. 🍂 Fall is more mild, less humid, and the foliage is beautiful as the school year gets into full swing. ❄️ Winter is chilly with rare snow (that's usually just a few inches and short-lived). 🌷 Spring is mild as things warm up again, with blooming flowers and bright green trees showing off. No matter the weather, #URichmond truly is a great place to be. ❤️💙🕷️
