[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP he sounds like a great kid. Being strong in both left AND right brain is less common and makes him a very compelling candidate for any level school. This is a huge strength that will serve him well in the process. [/quote] +1 My similar STEM-focused magnet kid's ECs are arts-focused plus one sport. I think LACs like to see this kind of balance, and my impression is that big state schools don't care that much once their academic thresholds are met. It might detract if he wants engineering or CS, so focus on schools that don't require you to declare an incoming major. Those tend to be more flexible in general in terms of viewing applications more holistically.[/quote]
