[quote=Anonymous]My dd is a top 3 SLAC legacy, and I suspect she may very well be admitted if she applies early (but likely not if she applies regular decision). BUT, I’m not sure if it is the right move. She has 3.7 uw gpa and 1380 SAT (so she almost certainly would not be admitted otherwise). I worry that she will struggle academically and may lose confidence. Is she better off just applying to schools where she would fit in better academically - maybe Denison, Dickinson etc. and give up a bit of prestige? She is on the fence and, while realizing the differences, thinks she would be happy either way. She is undecided about major etc. but her strengths are math and science. She is a very hard worker but has some minor exec functioning issues, which haven’t really impacted her academically thus far (but may in a very demanding academic setting).[/quote]
