nope

How rude.

that was me -- I was incredulous that a 3.86/1400 was deferred. this info will crush DS

Yield protection.

Problem is, there is no telling what schools need each year re: acceptances.

The standard DCUM response when one’s DC is deferred or rejected: yield protection.

Need to justify money wasted on privates

Wow. Another thread claimed UMiami was falling out of favor. Maybe, but its admissions stats sure seem to be increasing. We keep an eye on this as DH & brothers, uncles, etc are big UM guys. DS is a sophomore, but I just don’t see a 1400 SAT in his future.

My DD was rejected but it was a reach (3.8 unweighted and 1470 SAT from a W MCPS high school. Disappointed but expected. It is very popular. According to DD’s bf, lots of applicants from area privates too, probably b/c it is very expensive. We would have needed a lot of aid. The school has great programs, particularly bio med and business. Doesn’t hurt that the city is international, the campus is pretty and the weather is good. Yes, we’re very disappointed.

DS got in ED2 today. Thrilled.

Times have changed -- less than 10 years ago my little sister was accepted with a 3.4 and sub-1300 SAT scores - no hooks. But UM took a good chance on her and she's doing the U proud now. Good luck to the future Canes.
