[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is so sad that they got offered Spring Admission/Freshman Connection at UMD.  They have decided that they won't take it.  They got accepted to other schools (one large state honors college) and are deferred for two and still are waiting to hear from a few in April but it was their first choice and they wanted to go there.  They have strong grades/high SATs and feel so disappointed.  Are other high stat kids offered FC from one of the MCPS highly ranked high schools going to do FC?  It would be so much cheaper.  They know it was a reach for some kids who are thrilled to be in FC but they are so strong and motivated, good student, etc.

Hoping to hear some experiences to share with them to try to get them to reconsider.[/quote]

For one semester, they don't have 8 a.m. classes. That's it. The next semester, they can take classes at any time. I would take the freshman connection if it's your kid's first choice for school. They usually house them in the same dorms. I know of at least one kid who received this, and they are taking it. [/quote]
