[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was a January Freshman many years ago and I HATED it. Everyone had spent fall semester figuring things out and making friends and it was really not fun to be the new person coming in after people had settled into their groups/routines. I would never let my child do this because it really impacted my feeling of belonging starting from day one. I was at a NESCAC school and we had about 40 students starting with me but it was not the same at all as being a freshman with a class of 500. Just my two cents from a student who wished she hadn't gone that route.[/quote] I would strongly oppose my kid doing this for exactly this reason. I might go so far as to say I wouldn't pay for it. Offering January admission to an incoming freshman is a shitty thing to do, definitely not in the best interest of the student, and I don't care to send my money to a school that engages in this practice.[/quote]
