Self report by students. 425 grads. 421 headed directly to college. 340 reported to the TJ today survey.

UVA and VT are very, very low (WM is about what you would expect. My educated guess is that the majority of the non-reports are VT/UVA.

Have at it!

Not sure why non-reports would be specifically VT/UVA, but I agree they are likely low. The trend for several years has been that a higher percentage of TJ students are going to non-state schools.

UVA and VT were both about 70 each last year. Parent board says it’s an under report.

UVA has averaged 72 for last 3 years, VT 38, W&M 30, GMU 8, and VCU 8, so this is really low for both UVA (with 37) and and VT (with 16). W&M, GMU, and VCU are close to averages.

Still doesn't make much sense that only those kids would under report. I don't think VT was anywhere close to 70 last year.

Unusual for TJ to hit the SLACs so hard. As a SLAC grad, I love it. These are great science PhD feeders and pre-Ned schools.

14 to CMU— I know several going in CS. Super hard admission.

SLACs usually have professors who are happy to teach teaching science, not graduate disinterested grad students who can be difficult to understand or adjuncts.

Why doesn't it make sense? Her DD feels awkward asking, so OP tried to see if she could find out.

On an anonymous forum?

Harvard 15. 10 others were missed or didn't report to the list.

There were 12 MIT admits this year , which is roughly on the same level as other years. However, 5 rejected MIT opting for other schools, including all 4 girls admitted.

I don't doubt your info but as a parent of a senior, even I didn't know who was going where, much less know specific numbers of admits vs matriculation.
I don't think the counselors themselves know exact # of admits if the kids don't tell, how then would you know?

By my count, survey is reporting 306 kids out of 421 or 25% of the class did not report their destination for public consumption.

VT was 38 last year. Still way under at 16 listed here.

I’m a parent of a junior. My kid should end up at a decent college. But I will strongly suggest he not let his let his name be printed in the senior edition so DCUM can argue over whether his college is “impressive”. Especially since DCUM, in general, knows jack about engineering and CS schools and manages to be unimpressed with Purdue, UICU, GA Tech and the like.

Those numbers were from one of TJ parents' social media circle, which in turn was sourced from their TJ students.

I thought they were looking at the link, which is TJ today.

Those schools are getting a fair amount of attention. Only 4 going to GT, but that could be due to cost.

Berkley 8
Chicago 8
Columbia 2
Cornell 13
Duke 4
Harvard 5
MIT 7
Michigan 14
Penn 3
Princeton 4
Stanford 3
Washington University (St. Louis) 4
Williams 2
Yale 5

Still unimpressed the number one question remains if these kids would have remained at their base schools what would happened

I would argue for most at TJ they would have gotten better results from base schools

Even with this top 25% or so list

Nobody wants to impress anybody. Some people want to gather some facts and others provided info. You can always play the hypothetical scenario game,which has no proof or evidence either way.

UICU, Michigan and Berkeley ain’t cheap. Not a lot of TJ kids eager to live in Georgia. 4 is actually high. Usually it’s 1-2.
