You need to add hook - race, m/f, other factors

[Anonymous]

OP here-- no hook. But ok, folks can add what they want to

Also, is your DC's 3.7 weighted or unweighted?

Congratulations on Lehigh! I’m an alum who would not be accepted in today’s world! Just be sure to caution him not to drink - the new administration is arresting kids rather than giving warnings. You can look up the news stories. It’s a tremendous school with excellent academics and a great alumni network.

Congrats to your daughter! My son will apply next year, likely with similar stats. We are already looking at some of the same schools. Can you share which will be least expensive after adjusting for merit?
