To date, our seniors have received the following ED and REA results:

Bucknell University - 4 admits (includes 3 Division I athletes)
Boston College - 2 admits
Johns Hopkins University - 2 admits (includes 1 Division I athlete)
University of Pennsylvania - 2 admits
Boston University - 1 admit
Colgate University - 1 admit
College of Charleston - 1 admit
Cornell University - 1 admit
Davidson College - 1 admit
Dickinson College - 1 admit
Duke University - 1 admit
Georgetown University - 1 admit
New York University - 1 admit
Pitzer College - 1 admit
Princeton University - 1 admit
Skidmore College - 1 admit
Tufts University - 1 admit
University of Richmond - 1 admit
Washington University in St. Louis - 1 admit

Bullis early admit round looks good.

It looks…ok. So far, Bullis isn’t having the results GDS has right now.

Well, Bullis isn’t GDS, so there’s that. As a Bullis family, we are incredibly happy that there is a large range of colleges and universities they are accepted to and it says that they are willing to challenge those who need the challenge and support those who need the support.

I don’t know about a large range. These are all top schools.

Bucknell University - 4 admits (includes 3 Division I athletes)
Boston College - 2 admits
Johns Hopkins University - 2 admits (includes 1 Division I athlete)
University of Pennsylvania - 2 admits
Boston University - 1 admit
Colgate University - 1 admit
College of Charleston - 1 admit
Cornell University - 1 admit
Davidson College - 1 admit
Dickinson College - 1 admit
Duke University - 1 admit
Georgetown University - 1 admit
New York University - 1 admit
Pitzer College - 1 admit
Princeton University - 1 admit
Skidmore College - 1 admit
Tufts University - 1 admit
University of Richmond - 1 admit
Washington University in St. Louis - 1 admit

I wouldn’t refer to this as a list of top schools. I would call this a tiny number of top schools, but mostly a list of safeties.

Which schools are the safeties?

I consider the following schools to be safeties:

Bucknell University
Boston College
Boston University
Colgate University
College of Charleston
Davidson College
Dickinson College
New York University (no campus, so it’s a nonstarter)
Pitzer College
Skidmore College
Tufts University
University of Richmond
Washington University in St. Louis

Safeties for who? Did you have a kid go through college applications recently?

Safeties for my children. My oldest child attends Wharton, and my youngest is still in high school (the same one her sibling attended). I’m a Penn alum, but I’m not a Wharton alum.

Wharton isn’t a safety for anyone, so don’t try that line of attack. You may not like what I posted, but I’m not lying. As a matter of fact, BU was one of her safeties.

I didn’t say any of those colleges are terrible schools, so please unclench.

But certainly you realize that you are not the average family????

Boys in the top 5 kids in the class (as estimated by my son and friends) are in to Harvard, Dartmouth, Duke--all unhooked.

NCS students traditionally create one but not until later on in the process.

The boys at STA impress me more and more. Maturity beyond their years for the most part. Suspect it’s a combo of families they choose and the education they provide. Class act.

From a HS that typically sends a fair number, so far I only know of deferrals.

Pretty amazing, right? Kudos to Churchill teachers and staff for getting these kids to such great schools.
