[quote=Anonymous]My 16 year old daughter is a junior. I am in the process of learning everything I can about the college admissions process. I am seeking help and advice. Her father is incarcerated, and has been since she was 4 years old. She has good grades (over 4.0 weighted), and she is in the IB program. She expects to graduate with the full IB diploma. She wants a top tier school. Her stats fall below top tier. She is right on the edge, as far as I can tell, of being able to recieve a scholarship to mid-range schools based on her SAT scores and grades. As a single parent, I don't have a huge income- I make about 65,000 a year- so a scholarship is a must for us. Do I (or does she) disclose about the difficult circumstances she has endured (incarcerated parent) or do I leave it off the app and hope for the best? Thanks[/quote]
