[quote=Anonymous]What does he want to major in and how does his schedule and hobbies reflect it? He should have a connection between personal passion and college program. If he wants to be an architect, then hd should be taking art classes. If he wants to be a historian, then he should be taking all the AP history courses and like museums. Who is this kid? Why does he want to go here (to our university)? What is his trajectory from high school and beyond? Our kids chose colleges with the department geared to their main area of interest. Many universities admit by major where students apply directly to that department. If you want to be a history major, for example, then you apply directly to the history department that will take 60 incoming freshmen out of hundreds of applicants. So why should your kid be chosen? What demonstrated interest have they shown to that field of study?[/quote]
