The USMC enlisted was an interesting twist at the end there.

DP—I had the same reaction. That’s a lot of kids from the same high school going to a school that is not in-state. That’s all. Just surprised.

Pitt is a huge TJ safety school. Last year they admitted 85 of the 87 TJ kids who applied, and they all, or nearly all, get very generous merit aid.

No idea about Berkley. There are usually 2-4. Sometimes colleges just have an off year. Last year, TJ only sent 1 to Ga Tech. This year it is back up to normal.

The numbers are lower for all the UCs from TJ. The CA legislature just but a cap on OOS and international enrollment that went into effect this year.

Not yet. This is out of the TJ Today Senior Edition paper copy. It is not online yet. And it is not 100% accurate, I’m sure. They really threw the Senior Edition together. There were several instances of them saying 5 kids were going to a school, and listing 6 names. I went with the names. But it is close.

This is only 370 students of a class of over 500. Very impressive set of schools! 42 to the Ivies - and another 19 to UCh/MIT/S. 119 to UVA/VT/W&M Wow.

I am not seeing RPI. There are usually a few that go to RPI.

We need the Applied/Admitted/attending table for the entire student population to compare to prev. years and only then can we go "wow" or "meh". If the trend is "meh", I will advice my DC to move back to base (his call of course). DC1 is more the manager/lawyer type than a builder/researcher type anyways.. As is, DC2 will not even be taking the TJ test next year (DC2 is better than DC1 academically).

you mean "wow" or "meh" for TJ. For almost any other high school it's pretty "wow."

I’m the OP. The TJ Today Senior edition was a mess, so this list is almost certainly not completely accurate, and I am sure the numbers are off for some schools, because they put one number in parents and listed a different number of kids. And some students did not fill out the TJ Today Senior questionnaire. I also added a couple of kids based on knowing where they are going and it not showing up. For example, the Lehigh student was not in the Senior addition, but was a recruited athlete in crew, and was honored on signing day. So, I’m sure people are missing.

Also, the class starts at 480 and was down to 440 by the beginning of junior year. They ended up graduating 425 +/- ten students. So it’s not quite as bad as if there were over 500. And personally, I don’t think the WM number is right. It should be much higher.

I am not saying is is 100% accurate. But this is the best list there will be for a while.

That data will be loaded into Naviance. But probably not until late summer/early fall. There are also probably some number of kids in flux with waitlist.
