I feel bad for these schools just being there to soothe the feelings of DMV kids

My kids all went and graduated from out of state schools to which they applied EA. They had not visited before applying and getting accepted.

Was it last year that Pitt had 600 more freshman than expected accept. They do the math and they get some great students and the students get a gret education. Why all the hate?

I dont get the sense that you really feel sorry for anybody.

Not sure. It’s my cousin and I believe it took about month…but may be off. He would love to go there, so it’s not just a game for him He loves outdoors, has hiked most of the AT, and genuinely may go there.

Last year, merit offers came out a week or two after the acceptance.

Why can’t you share the schools?

We were looking at New Mexico at one point. Anyone who graduates with a 3.0 gets in state tuition.

My daughter will be applying to Radford and ODU next year. She spent a couple weeks at Radford for a program in summer 2021. It has good programs for the majors she is considering.

Another east coast school to consider is Slippery Rock in PA. They have a tuition reduction program for oos students who graduate with a 3.0. And even without that, the tuition is not crazy.

A couple privates on our list are Shenandoah (VA) and Rider (NJ)

Yeah - for similar reasons, it's definitely not just a "safety" for my DC either.

You can get everything done on the student-side as soon as the applications open. As mentioned above - some schools require the official transcript before the application is considered "final" - others will review with self-reported grades and verify later.

if they don’t have the grades/transcript, then on what grounds would the school be accepting your kid or not?

The vast majority of the schools depend on the grades you report (Common App, SRAR, or uploaded transcript at end of jr. year). You only need to submit a real transcript, direct from the school once admitted and you accept.

+1 DC is very interested in their STEM programs. Amazing campus rec programs and Ft. Collins is more laid back than Boulder.
